Answer:
c. Ending inventory will be lower if Blake uses weighted average than if FIFO were used
Explanation:
To check which answer is correct, we simply evaluate each option step by step.
<u>Option A</u>
Gross margin is the difference between selling price and cost.
Under FIFO gross margin is $14. (32 -18 =14)
Under LIFO gross margin is $13. (32-19 = 13)
Thus statement is incorrect as gross margin is higher if FIFO is used.
<u />
<u>Option B</u>
If FIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $19 as ending inventory will contain product purchased later that is at $19. In contrast, if LIFO is used, the dollar amount of ending inventory will be $18. Thus the statement becomes incorrect that it will be the same.
<u />
<u>Option C</u>
The ending inventory under FIFO is $19.
The ending inventory under LIFO is $18
The endng inventory under AVCO or weighted average will be, 18+19 / 2 = 18.5
Thus the statement is correct as the ending inventory under weighted average $18.5 is lower than ending inventory under FIFO $19. So, C is the correct Answer.
Answer:
$32.60
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Dividend paid per share = $0.60
Market price per share = $35.75
Required returns, r = 11.5% = 0.115
Now,
Current price = [ Dividend paid per share + Market price per share ] ÷ ( 1 + r )
= [ $0.60 + $35.75 ] ÷ ( 1 + 0.115 )
= $36.35 ÷ 1.115
= $32.60
I'm not a mathematician but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say 44%!
