Answer:

X= 3.45%

Explanation:

Data provided

One year future exchange rate = $2.01

Spot exchange rate = $1.98

Interest rate is USA = 5%

The computation of British interest rate is shown below:-

Assume Interest rate in UK = X%

One year future exchange rate = Spot exchange rate × (1 + Interest rate is USA) ÷ (1 + X%)

$2.01 = $1.98 × (1 + 5%) ÷ (1 + X%)

$2.01 ÷ $1.98 = (1 + 5%) ÷ (1 + X%)

(1 + X%) = 1.05 ÷ 1.01515

X= 3.45%

Answer:

A debit card

Explanation:

A debit card allows customers to make electronic payments using the funds at their bank accounts. If the customer does not have sufficient funds in their bank accounts, the transaction won't go through.

A debit card is similar to a credit card in appearance. However,  a debit card does not levy interest fees or late payment fees because it's not a credit facility.

Which goal is an example of a measurable goal?
Anni [7]

Sales Target

Explanation:

A sales target is an example of a measurable goal and it is probably the most common, and perhaps the most important, measurable goal in a firm.

It simply consists in determining a minimum number of goods or services to be sold, measured in either physical or monetary terms, in order to keep the firm afloat and profitable.

For example, a firm that sells cars can determine that for the month of january it must sell at least 250 cars in order to stay in business. If the goal is not reached, the sustainability of the firm can be endangered.

Crystal Apple Sales Company began 2014 with cash of $2,000, inventory of $3,600 (200 crystal apples that cost $18 each), $2,500
Andru [333]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold = (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × (2,040-200-800)

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $24,960

= $44,560

Ending Inventory Under FIFO = (1,200 - 1,040) × (2,040-200-800)

= 160 × $24

= $3,840

Under LIFO method

Cost of goods sold is

= (1,200 × $24) + (800 × $20) + (40 × $18)

= $28,800 + $16,000 + $720

= $45,520

Ending Inventory Under LIFO is

= (200 - 40) × $18

= 160 × $18

= $2,880

Weighted Average cost flow Assumption

Weighted Average cost per apple = Cost of Beginning inventory and purchase ÷ Total apple available

Cost of Beginning inventory and purchases is

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,200 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $28,800

= $48,400

Total apples available is

= 200 + 800 + 1,200

= 2,200  

Weighted Average cost per apple is

= $48,400 ÷ 2,200

= $22

Cost of goods sold is  

= 2,040 × $22

= $44,880

Ending Inventory is

= 160 × $22

= $3,520

b. The Preparation of income statement, a balance sheet, and a statement of cash flows under each of the three cost flow assumptions is prepared below:-

Income Statement                       Amount

Sales (2,040 × $40)                     $81,600

Less: Cost of goods sold            ($44,560)

Gross Profit                                  $37,040

Less: Operating Expenses         ($26,000)

Income before income taxes      $11,040

Working note

cash = (opening + Sales - Purchases - Operating expenses - Income tax expenses )

= $2,000 + $81,600 - $44,800 - $26,000 - $3,312

= $9,488

= $3,100 + $7,728

= $10,828
