When Prior year ending inventory understated by $ 50,000 :

If the ending inventory of the prior year has been understated then the COGS of the prior year get overstated which ultimately understated Pretax income by the same margin.

Prior year ending inventory is the current year opening inventory,  so when the prior year ending inventory has been understated that means the current year opening inventory is also getting understated.  Which resulted in an understatement of COGS and due to which pretax income of the current year gets overstated by the same margin.  

Total pretax income of the two years = $ (50,000) + $ 50,000 = Nil ( No effect).

The four most commonly used inventory types are Raw Materials, Work in Process (WIP), Finished Goods, Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO). Knowing the nature of your inventory will help you manage your inventory better and smarter. Consider a fashion retailer like Zara, which operates seasonally.

An issuer has filed a registration statement in the state proposing to offer 500,000 shares in a combined primary and secondary
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

b. 300,000 shares being sold is an issuer transaction and the 200,000 shares being sold is a non-issuer transaction.

Explanation:

A non-issuer transaction is a transaction that does not directly benefit an issuer or it was not directly executed to benefit an issuer.

According to the Uniform State Law, an entity involved in the sales of certificates of interest, leases, mining titles among others is officially exempted from being labelled as an issuer. Hence, the entity (officers of the firm) in the question are non-issuer brokers.

Specifically, when the sales of stock are carried out by someone or an individual who is not a registered stockbroker, that individual officially becomes what is called 'a non-issuer broker-dealer'. The implication is that such a transaction is to be exempted from the registration requirements of the Security Exchange Commission.

In this question, since the issuer newly issued 300,000 shares while the remaining 200,000 in the proposed combination was offered by Officers of the firm - non-issuer broker-dealers. The Law states that it must be separated to show that 300,000 shares are sold in an issuer transaction (Primary) directly involving an official issuer while 200,000 shares are sold in a non-issuer transaction (Secondary).

Rank the following types of businesses in order of risk to you, with the highest being number 1: partnership, limited partnershi
kompoz [17]

Answer:

  1. Sole Proprietorship
  2. Partnership
  3. Limited Partnership
  4. Limited Liability Company      

Explanation:

Sole Proprietorship is the type of business in which the liability is not limited. Due to this issue, the owner is solely responsible to pay off the debts of company from his personal owned assets if the business goes bankrupt.

Partnership is just like sole proprietorship but here the partners are the only responsible persons to payoff the debt of the company because the liability is limitless. The burden of the company debts is equally shared among the partners.

Limited Partnership is less risky because the liability is limited and only the amount invested in the business is subjected to the payment of borrowings from the lenders. The limited partner is responsible for his actions which means if his misdeed resulted in fine then it would be paid from his share first and then the other partners are equally liable to for compensation if their is still any amount left.

In the case of Limited liability company, the liability is limited and the burden of the payment of the liability falls on the company. So the investor is not subjected to pay the debts of the company because the limited liability company is a separate entity and is solely liable to pay for its debts.
