m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

B. In JIT purchasing, raw materials (or goods) are purchased so that products are delivered just as needed for production or sales.

Explanation:

JIT stands for Just in time management. It is an inventory management approach that advocates for the purchase of materials just when they are needed for production. In JIT, there is no storing of materials for use for future production. The purchase of materials is aligned with the production process.

The success of JIT is dependent on management ability to forecast sales volumes accurately. Management must work with reliable suppliers to ensure that materials are available when required. JIT lower's the cost of inventory management by eliminating the need to store huge quantities of materials. It reduces wastage by doing away with losses that arise due to the storage of bulk materials.

Vaughn Manufacturing purchased machinery for $980000 on January 1, 2017. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded based on a

Tresset [83]

Answer:

selling price= $199,633

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the book value at the moment of the sale:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (980,000 - 56,500) / 5

Annual depreciation= $184,700

Accumulated depreciation= (4*184,700) + (184,700/12)*4

Accumulated depreciation= $800,367

Book value on May 1st:

Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 980,000 - 800,367

Book value= $179,633

Now, if the company makes a profit, the selling price was higher than the book value:

Gain= selling price - book value

20,000= selling price - 179,633

selling price= $199,633

If my propensity for risk in the face of the possibility of a premium is greater, I will prefer the adjustable hypotheca, which gives me the chance to pay less in the end. If I am a risk averse consumer, I will prefer a fixed hypotheque that will give predictability to my budget.
