Answer: A - nominal wages are slow to adjust to changing economic conditions
Explanation:
In the short run, the costs of many of the factors used in the production process are fixed. For example labours wage is fixed for a number of years because of labour contracts. Also the raw materials used in the production process have long term agreements that fix their prices.
As a result of factors of production been fixed in the short run, when general price level rises and the cost of production remains constant, profit also rises.
Firms take advantage of this rise in price and increase production and the quantity of aggregate supply increases. This is why the short run aggregate supply curve is upward sloping.
Answer:
d. net income for the year will be overstated.
Explanation:
The prepaid rent account is used to record the amount paid in advance for rent. Once the amount is paid, the entries required are
Debit Prepaid rent
Credit Cash account
On subsequent use of the rent, the required entries are
Debit Rent expense
Credit Prepaid rent
As such where at the end of the fiscal year, the usual adjusting entry to update Prepaid Rent for the portion of the benefit that was used up / expired was accidentally omitted, net income for the year will be overstated as the rent expense that would have been posted to reduce it would have been omitted.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:
<u>(a) FIFO</u>
In using this method we calculate cost based on the price of the earliest (first) purchased inventory date.
(b) LIFO
Here we calculate cost by using the price of the most recent (last) purchased inventory date. eg for inventory cost calulations for March 9 we use the price value of March 29
(c) weighted average
This meeting uses the average cost of the entire inventory in the month. Calculated by dividing total cost by today inventory.
(d) specific identification.
Here cost are just assigned to each individual item or batch of items in the period.
