These three together form total market, so here we have to add up everything to know volume of the market

A+B+C = 1,275,000 is the total market

Then we have to calculate individual market share

which would eb 1) 28.2%, 2) 50.9%, 3) 20.8%

This can be calcualated by simple percetage calculation. ( 1275000-360000/1275000*100)-100 will give what share each has.

Then we apply HHI formula

HHI = s1^2 + s2^2 + s3^2 + ... + sn^2

HHi is nothing but squaring of each of the percentages and adding them up

(28.2)2 +(50.9)2 +(20.8)2

812+2590+432 = 3834

HHI of 3834 shows it is highly competitve market.

principal is $25,000

stated interest is 8%

number of accrued months is 3

accrued interest =$25,000*8%*3/12=$500

The accrued interest is to be debited interest expense because it is an increase in expense and credited to interest payable as a liability

Cost of goods manufactured (COGM) increases when finished goods inventory is <em>produced</em>, while cost of goods sold (COGS) increases when finished goods inventory is <em>sold</em>. If COGS has been increasing faster than COGM has been increasing, the company has been selling more goods than it has been producing. Therefore, it must have sold goods from its surplus of finished goods inventory. Thus, finished goods inventory has decreased.
