Answer:

The statement is true.

Explanation:

Investment expenditure refers to the expenses incurred on account of creating capital assets.

If a good is produced but is left unsold or not used in the production process, then, they result in increased inventory, which is considered as an investment by the firm.

For the purpose of GDP accounting, unsold goods in inventory are treated as purchased by the firm from itself. As such, they form a part of investment expenditure in the accounting period.

Arkansas Corporation manufactures liquid chemicals A and B from a joint process. It allocates joint costs on the basis of sales
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B is $7,131.25.

Explanation:

This can be calculatd as follows:

Product B share of joint cost = (Product B sales value / (Product B sales value + Product A sales value)) * Cost to split-off point = ($32.20 / ($32.20 + $3.00)) * $5,500 = 0.914772727272727 * $5,500 = 5,031.25

Product B total additional separable process beyond split-off = Additional cost per gallon * Number of gallons of product B produced = $2.10 * 1,000 = $2,100

Therefore, we have:

Company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B = Product B share of joint cost + Product B total additional separable process beyond split-off = 5,031.25 + $2,100 = $7,131.25

Therefore, the company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B is $7,131.25.

arlik [135]

Answer:

the deductible loss on the car is $12,000

The computation of the Jim deductible loss on the car is shown below:

Car value = $40,000

Insurance recovery = 70%

Now the deductible loss is

= Car value - (car value × insurance recovery)

= $40,000 - ($40,000 × 70%)

= $40,000 - $28,000

= $12,000

hence, the deductible loss on the car is $12,000

Jane currently has $5,300 in her savings account and $2,000 in her checking account at the local bank. Instructions:
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

A

  • M1 change = $500
  • M2 change = $0

B

  • M1 change = -$340
  • M2 change = -$180

Explanation:

A. M1 includes actual liquid cash in hand as well as cash in checking deposits.

M2 includes M1 as well as savings deposits and time deposits amongst others.

M1 change = +$500

$500 went from the Savings account which was not part of M1 to M1.

M2 change = $0

The money went from Savings to Checking which are both part of M2.

B.

M1 change = -$-180 - ( 500 - 180 -160 ) = -$340

Tax of $180 went out of the supply as tax. Jane deposits the remaining cash after paying $160 for goods into the savings account which is not part of M1. That remaining cash is = 500 - 180 - 160 = $160.

M2 change = -500 + 160 + 160 = -$180

For M2, only taxes will reduce money from it because the rest goes to checking deposits and savings accounts both of which are part of M2
