The business risk which is avoidable if there is proper
precaution is letter A. Machine Breakdown. Comparing to other choices, if a
machine is used with absolute care and it is well-maintained, then possible frequent
breakdowns will be avoided. Unlike the obsolescence of fixed machinery; this means
that some fixed assets are becoming outdated and can wear-out in due time which
becomes a risk that is unavoidable. Natural calamities, on the other hand are
inevitable because humans can predict some natural disasters, but cannot
control the extent of damage caused by certain calamities to the business. Last
but not the least, is the change in management. Despite the fact that each and
everyone in the company is doing their job very well, still, those higher in
authority may choose to retire or transfer to another company.
Answer:
D. Cost of goods sold will be lower and ending inventory will be higher
Explanation:
If the price are falling means that:
price at moment n > price at n+k
because n+k is into the future, their cost is lower.
Using LIFO, means the COGS will use the lower price, and the Inventory the highest.
While FIFO will be the opposite. COGS will use the higher price and the Inventory the lower price.
COGS lifo < COGS fifo
Inventory lifo > Inventory fifo
<u>Option D is the only one which satisfies this</u>
Answer:
Original Sale Price = $6000
Explanation:
Lets say that the original Sale price is 100%. When the first discount is offered, the car is discounted by 10% and offered for 90% of the original price.
The second discount is offered as 20% off from the discounted sale price. Thus the car is now offered at,
Price after Second Discount = 90% * (1 - 20%) = 72% of the original price
Now the final discount is offered as further 25% off from the Second Discounted price which is already 72% of the original price. Thus the price after final discount will be,
Price after final discount = 72% * (1 - 25%) = 54% of the original price
We know the price after final discount is 54% of the original price and we are provided the amount as 3240. Thus if 54% of original price is 3240, then the original price will be,
Original Sale Price = 3240 * 100%/54%
Original Sale Price = $6000
