Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": since there is no count of inventory during the review period, a stockout is possible.

Explanation:

The fixed-period inventory system, also known as a periodic inventory system, only updates the organization’s inventory balance when an actual physical count of the inventory is necessary. Most companies only carry out a physical inventory count once every quarter or year, being this the reason why this system is called "fixed-period". However, this could lead to a company stockout at an unexpected period when the count was not carried out yet.

Oriole Company purchased equipment for $41600. Sales tax on the purchase was $2496. Other costs incurred were freight charges of

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The cost of the equipment is <u>$45,416</u>.

Explanation:

The cost of a newly purchased equipment is the addition of all relevant costs uncured in order to make the equipment ready for use.

The cost of the equipment includes costs such as purchase price, tax paid on the purchase, installation costs, etc.

However, any cost incurred to repair any damage to an equipment during installation is not part of equipment cost. Such repair costs are just ordinary expenses that are charged to the income statement during the period.

Based on the explanation above, the cost of the equipment by Oriole Company can be calculated as follows:

Equipment cost = Purchase price + Sales tax + Freight charges + Installation costs ..................... (1)

Since,

Purchase price = $41,600

Sales tax on the purchase = $2.496.

Freight charges = $624

Installation costs = $696.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Equipment cost = $41,600 + $2,496 + $624 + $696 = $45,416

Therefore, the cost of the equipment is <u>$45,416</u>.

On January 1, 2015, East Lansing, Inc, issues $2,000,000 of 10 percent, 5-year bonds that pay interest of $100,000 semiannually.

Trava [24]

Answer:

The answer is option D

Explanation:

The bond can be issued at par, at a discount or at a premium depending on the coupon rate and the market interest. The price of the bond which pays semi annual coupon can be calculated using the formula of bond price. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.

First we need to determine the semi annual coupon payment, periods and YTM.

Semi annual coupon payments = 2000000 * 0.1 * 6/12 = 100000

Semi annual periods = 5 * 2 = 10

Semi annual YTM = 0.08 * 6/12 = 0.04

Bond Price = 100000 * [(1 - (1+0.04)^-10) / 0.04] + 2000000 / (1+0.04)^10

Bond Price = $2162217.916

The price of the bond is thus $2162290 approx. The difference in answers is due to rounding off.

The rental income generated by a lease can depend significantly on the proportion of property-level operating expenses paid by t

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

4) Triple net lease

Explanation:

In a triple net lease (NNN lease), the tenant is responsible for all the expenses related to the leased property including property taxes, maintenance fees, reparations and property insurance. NNN leases are usually commercial leases only.

The landlord's disadvantage with a NNN lease is that the monthly lease payment tends to be lower since the tenant assumes all the costs related to the leased property. On the other hand, a NNN lease generally provides a stable cash flow, so its associated risk is lower.
