Answer: 1.222
Explanation:
The Average duration can be derived from the formula:
Assets * Average Duration = Liabilities * Duration of Liabilities
Average Duration = (Liabilities * Duration of Liabilities) / Assets
= (47,000,000 * 1.3) / 50,000,000
= 61,100,000 / 50,000,000
= 1.222
Answer:
A) lower income tax rates could increase tax revenues.
Explanation:
The laffer curve is a theoretical model which argues that there a tax rate that theoretically produces the most revenue for the government. Said tax rate is between 0% and 100%.
President Reagan used this model to argue that a lower tax rate would actually increase government revenue. The logic behind this claim was that lower tax rates increases both public and private saving, which in turn increases investment, resulting in more economic growth, and more taxable income.
The validity of these claims is dispute and is subject to debate among economists.
Answer:
Sheffield Company
Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory
= $1,145,400/$138,000
= 8.3 times
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Beginning inventory = $145,000
Ending inventory = $131,000
Average inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory)/2
= ($145,000 + 131,000)/2
= $138,000
Sales revenue = $1,972,800
Cost of goods sold = $1,145,400
Net income = $248,400
b) The inventory turnover ratio for Sheffield Company is an efficiency ratio that shows how inventory is managed and the number of times Sheffield sells or consumes the inventory during an accounting period. This is why Sheffield Company takes the average of the inventories in order to smoothen seasonal fluctuations in the inventory level during the year. When this ratio divides the number of days in the accounting period, Sheffield will get the days it takes for inventory to be purchased or produced, and then sold or consumed.
Answer: a. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018
Explanation:
In 2018, $9 million was used to settle the wage debt of 2017 and the remainder was used to settle the wages in 2018.
The money remaining in cash after the wage settlement was:
= 9,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 8,000,000
= -$1,000,000
This means that $1,000,000 of wages was not settled in 2018 which means that this would have to go to the Wages Payable account to signify that the company owes wages.
This account is a liability account so liabilities in 2018 would increase by $1,000,000.
