Answer:

A) 200 units

Explanation:

mean daily demand = 20 calculators

standard deviation = 4 calculators

lead time = 9 days

z-critical value (for 95% in-stock probability) = 1.96

normal consumption during lead-time:

= mean demand × lead time

= 20 × 9

= 180 calculators

safety stock = z × SD × √L

                    = 1.96 × 4 × √9

                    = 1.96 × 4 × 3

                    = 23.52 calculators

reorder point = normal consumption + safety stock

                       = 180 + 23.52

                       = 203.52 calculators

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Job promotion and official recognition in form of an award are the motivational package I will give to the employee

Explanation:I

If an employee's performance after appraisal and due diligence is commendable because of its contribution to our organization goals, intrinsically, such person deserves to be promoted to a higher rank because his contributions are not premised on lip service and service seeking recognition.

On the contrary, when an employee's performance is premised on extrinsic factors after conducting necessary appraisal, such an employee simply does that because of the reward he or she seek, and not necessarily the passion attaches to the job. Hence, such employee can be given material compensation which can be monetized but not necessarily a job promotion.

Young Co. issues $800,000 of 10% bonds dated January 1, Year 1. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The
Andreyy89

Answer:

Young should report proceeds from the sale of bonds as equal to $864,884

Explanation:

The proceeds on the sale of bonds is equivalent to the present value of all the cash flows that are likely to accrue to an investor once the bond is bought. These cash-flows are the periodic coupon payments that are paid semi-annually and the par value of the bond that will be paid at the end of the 5 years.

During the 5 years, there are 10 equal periodic coupon payments that will be made. In each  year, the total coupon paid will be

$800,000*0.1=$80,000

and this payment will be split into two equal payments equal to \frac{$80,000}{2} = $40,000 . This stream of cash-flows is an ordinary annuity

The periodic market rate is equal to \frac{0.08}{2}=0.04

The  PV of the cashflows = PV of the coupon payments + PV of the par value of the bond

=$40,000*PV Annuity Factor for 10 periods at 4%+ $800,000*\frac{1}{(1+0.04)^10}

=$40,000*8.1109+$800,000*0.67556=$864,884

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: as a current liability

Explanation:

From the question, we are given the information that Orear Manufacturing signed a contract with a supplier to buy raw materials in 2021 for $700,000 and before the December 31, 2020 balance sheet date, the market price for these materials dropped to $510,000.

The journal entry to record this situation at December 31, 2020 will result in a credit that should be reported in the current liability. It should be noted that current liabilities are the liabilities for the financial obligations for a company on a short-term basis which are normally due within a period of one year.

Examples of current liabilities are accruwed expenses, accounts payables, short-term debt, and dividends payable.
