Answer:

B) $3,000

Explanation:

Since this is defined as a derivative operation, its result must be reported either as a gain or loss as part of normal income. Imp entered a contract to buy 100,000 euros at $0.90. If the exchange rate remained at $0.90 in 90 days, no gain or loss should be recognized.

But the currency exchange increased to $0.93 per euro, so the contract now results in a $0.03 gain per euro (= $0.93 - $0.90), so a gain of $0.03 x 100,000 = $3,000 must be reported.

Pardee Company makes 30% of its sales for cash and 70% on account. 60% of the account sales are collected in the month of sale,
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Cash receipts in month 4 :

Month 4 sales = (30% × 30,000) + (70% × 30000 × 60%)

                        = $21,600

Month 3 sales = 50,000 × 70% × 25%

                        = $8,750

Month 2 sales = 70,000 × 70% × 12%

                        = $5,880

Thus, total cash receipts:

= Month 4 sales + Month 3 sales + Month 2 sales

= $21,600 + $8,750 + $5,880

= $36,230

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Periodic system: FIFO ; COGS= $11400, closing inventory = $7700, gross profit=$14000. LIFO = closing stock= 6600, COGS=$12500, gross profit=12900.

perpetual system: FIFO ;COGS=11400, closing stock= $7700, gross profit= $11400. LIFO ; COGS=$12500, closing stock= $6600, gross profit = $12900

Reason for a higher gross profit in FIFO than LIFO is some of the stock ends up not being sold as they are maybe old, out-fashioned, and obviously new trend come about everyday.

Supler Corporation produces a part used in the manufacture of one of its products. The unit product cost is $21, computed as fol
Len [333]

Answer:

$4 advantage

Explanation:

In this question we need to compare the cost between the relevant cost and the outside supplier cost

The relevant cost is

= Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit + variable manufacturing overhead per unit + fixed manufacturing overhead per unit

= $8 + $5 + $3 + $5 × 80%

= $8 + $5 + $3 + $4

= $20

Since 80% of the fixed manufacturing cost above is eliminated so we considered the same

And, the outside supplier cost is $16

So based on the above calculation, the financial advantage is

= $20 - $16

= $4 advantage

This shows the company should purchased from outside supplier as it saves $4
