FIFO will result in higher pretax income and EPS.

FIFO ("first in, first out") is based on these production costs, assuming that the oldest products in a company's inventory are sold first. The LIFO (last in, first out) method assumes that the newest product in the company's inventory was sold first, and uses that cost instead.

FIFO (First In, First Out) Inventory Management evaluates inventory to reduce the likelihood of business losses when products are phased out or discontinued. LIFO (last in, first out) inventory management is suitable for non-perishable goods and uses the current price to calculate the cost of goods sold.

algol13

Answer:

Total equivalent unit     1,425 units

Explanation:

<em>Under the first-in -first out system, to account for the units completed in a period, it is assumed that the opening inventory units are first completed and the balance represents the newly introduced.</em>

<em>Fully worked represents unit of inventory started this this period and completed this period</em>

Fully worked = completed units - opening inventory

Fully worked = 1200 -750 = 450 units

Item                        Units                                     Equivalent Units

Opening WIP         750     750×50%                     375

Fully worked          450      450× 100%                   450

Closing WIP           800       800× 75%                 <u> 600</u>

Total equivalent unit                                              <u>1,425</u>

Note the opening inventory has 50% work done last period so the balance of 50% i.e (100 - 50)  is completed this period

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

should specialize in the production of goods for which they have a lower opportunity cost of production than their trading partners

Explanation:

A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.  

for country A,  

opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2

for country B,  

opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2

Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of beans and country B has a comparative advantage in the production of rice

Country A should specialise in the production of beans and B  should specialise in the production of rice

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The​ company's net income for the​ month was $27 comma 000

Explanation:

Net income = Total Sales - total expense

During the month of May,

Total Sales = credit sales + cash sales = $35,000 + $25,000 = $60,000

The company paid wages of $ 24 comma 000, the wages expense was $ 24 comma 000.

The company paid utilities of $ 9 comma 000, the utilities expense was $ 9 comma 000

Net income = $60,000 - $33,000 = $27,000
