Answer :

Estimated inventory loss = $233,750

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

Inventory = $231,000

Purchases = $461,000

Cost of goods for sale (A) is

= $231,000 + $461,000

= $692,000

Sales = $611,000

Gross Profit = $611,000 × 25% = $152,750

Cost of goods Sold (B) is

= ($611,000 - $152,750)

= $458,250

So, Estimated inventory loss  is

= (A - B)

= ($692,000 - $258250)

= $233,750

We simply applied the above formula

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For investment 1 -

The formula is shown below:

= (Income × quarter ) +Value at the end  - Value at the beginning  ÷ (Value at the beginning) × 100

= {($0.38 × 2) + $29.25 - $25.83} ÷ ($25.83) × 100

= ($0.76 +  $29.25 - $25.83) ÷ ($25.83)  × 100

= ($4.18 ÷ $25.83)  × 100

= 16.18%

Assume that the reserve requirement is 10%. All other things being equal, will the money supply expand MORE if the Fed buys $1,0
Strike441 [17]

Solution:

The reserve ratio is 10%.

Money multiplier = \frac{1}{reserve requirement } = \frac{1}{0.10}  = 10.

So, the money multiplier increases by 10.

Money supply = amount x money multiplier = 1,000 x 10 = 10000

Therefore, because any certain items are equivalent, the rise in the currency supply is 10000 dollars.

When the FED sells 1,000 million worth of debt, this would further increase the monetary market, as the investments are fresh funds and the income from the bank is now used in the money supply.

Answer:

Weighted average:

EI:            2,290

COGS:     9, 160

LIFO

EI:            2,400

COGS:     9,050

FIFO

EI:            3,000

COGS:     8,450

Explanation:

beginning 75 units at $ 18 = $  1,350

Mar. 15    200 units at $21 =  $ 4,200

Sept. 4    175 units at $24 =  $ 1,800

July 20   125 units at $22 =  $ 2,750

Dec. 2      50 units at $27 =  $ 1,350

total units:  625 units cost of goods available: 11,450

average cost: 11,450/625  =  $ 18.32 per unit

inventory units: 625 - 500 = 125 units

Weighted average:

EI:          125 x $18.32 = 2,290

COGS: 500 x $18.32 = 9, 160

500 units were sold

LIFO:

last units are sold while frist are inventory

ending inventory

beginning 75 units at $ 18 = $  1,350

Mar. 15      50 units at $21 =  $<u>  1,050  </u>

                                  Total      2,400

COGS: available - ending inventory

11,450 - 2,400 = 9,050

FIFO

first units are sold while last are inventory

Dec. 2      50 units at $27 =  $ 1,350

July 20     75 units at $22 =  $ <u>1,650   </u>

                                  Total      3,000

COGS: available - ending inventory

11,450 - 3,000 = 8,450

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Option B                                

Explanation:

In simple words, under such tax reforms the government is intending to raise indirect taxes which will lead to higher prices of certain goods and is also declining taxes on savings. Both of these steps will work as an incentive for individuals to save more.

However a big majority of community is stating that this will only lead to more burden on the weaker section due to higher prices of commodities and will eventually result in lower standard of living for certain individuals.
