Answer:

$307.83918 or $307.84

Explanation:

The computation of the monthly lease payment is shown below:

Given that

stated annual rate = s = 7.2% = 0.072

monthly rate = r = s ÷ 12 = 7.2 ÷ 12 = 0.6% = 0.006

number of equal monthly payments =  n = 36  

present value of the lease payments = p = $10,000

Based on the above information

let us assume the monthly lease payments be A

Now the following formula to be used

A × PVIFA(n,r) × (1 + r) = p

where,

PVIFA(n,r) is

= [ (1+r) n -1] ÷ ((1 + r)n × r)

= [ (1.006)36 -1] ÷ ((1.006)36  × 0.006)

= 32.29074882

Now  

A × 32.29074882 × (1.006) = $10,000

A = $10,000 ÷ (32.29074882 × 1.006)

= $307.83918 or $307.84

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The cost of the ending inventory under FIFO is $2,430 and under LIFO is  $1,620

Explanation:

First determine the units sold

Units Sold = Total Purchases - Units in hand

                  = 1,410 units - 270 units

                  = 1,140

Note ; Wildhorse Co. uses a periodic inventory system. This means we calculate the cost at the end of the period.

FIFO

Means First in First Out

Cost of the ending inventory = 270 x $9.00 = $2,430

LIFO

Means Last in First Out

Cost of the ending inventory = 270 x $6.00 = $1,620

Conclusion

The cost of the ending inventory under FIFO is $2,430 and under LIFO is  $1,620

Sav [38]

Answer:

Equivalent units of production= 68,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units started and completed= 80,000 - 20,000= 60,000

Units in ending inventory= 20,000 nits that were 40% complete in the ending work in process inventory at the end of January.

<u>To calculate the equivalent units for conversion costs, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production

Equivalent units of production= 60,000 + (20,000*0.4)

Equivalent units of production= 68,000 units
