Answer:
The correct answer is d. are used to reduce inventory holding costs.
Explanation:
The Just-in-time inventory (JIT) system is a stock management system where stock is received when needed for production (stock received just in time for production). This inventory strategy increases efficiency and decreases waste by receiving goods only as they need them for the production process, which reduces inventory costs. However its effectiveness lies in accurate demand forecast.
Answer:
Statement a. is correct.
Explanation:
The effective annual rate is always higher than the nominal interest rate, as the formula is clear for any number of periods, for any interest rate:
Effective Annual Rate of return =
Further if we calculate the present value of annuity due and ordinary annuity assuming 6 % interest rate, then:
Present value of annuity due =
= 1.06 $400.95
= $425.0089
Present value of ordinary annuity =
= $150 2.6730
= $400.95
Therefore, value of annuity due is more than value of ordinary annuity.
Statement a. is correct.
