If the new system is able to reduce the firm's inventory level and increase the firm's inventory turnover ratio to 7.5, while maintaining the same level of sales, the cash that will be freed up is: a. $2,400,000.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

A haberdasher is a person who sells small articles for sewing, such as buttons, ribbons and zippers in the United Kingdom. Whereas in the United States, the haberdasher refers instead to a retailer who sells men's clothing, including suits, shirts, and neckties.

Haberdash inc. last year reported sales of $12 million and an inventory turnover ratio of 3. the company is now adopting a just-in-time inventory system.

Inventory turnover ratio_{Old} = \frac{Sales}{Inventory}

3 =\frac{12,000,000}{I} dollar

3I = 12,000,000 dollar

I = 4,000,000 dollar

Inventory turnover ratio_{New} = \frac{Sales}{Inventory}

7.5 = \frac{12,000,000}{I} dollar

I = \frac{12,000,000}{7.5} dollar

I = 1,600,000 dollar

Cash freed up = $4,000,000 – $1,600,000 = $2,400,000.

So, If the new system is able to reduce the firm's inventory level and increase the firm's inventory turnover ratio to 7.5, while maintaining the same level of sales, the cash that will be freed up is: a. $2,400,000.

After posting the entries to close all revenue and expense accounts, the Income Summary account of Cleaver Auto Services has a $
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

INCORRECT.

In income summary account, all revenue accounts are closed by debiting them and crediting the income summary account. expense accounts are closed by crediting them and debiting income summary account. then on closing income summary account it shows debit balance if there is a net loss and it shows credit balance if there is a net income.

In the given case clever auto services has debit balance of $5,300 i,e it implies that clever auto services has loss .

Therefore above statement is wrong. It implies a loss of $5300 not the net income of $5,300.
