Answer:

In periods of inflation, LIFO will result in the lowest reported net income, and therefore a company will pay less in federal income taxes ⇒ TRUE STATEMENT

Explanation:

Last in, first out (LIFO) uses the  price of the last units purchased in order to determine the cost of goods sold. When inflation is high, prices tend to increase continuously, therefore, the price of the last units purchased will always be higher than the price of the first units purchased. This doesn't mean that exactly the last units purchased will be the ones sold, it is just an accounting method.

(3) To calculate the cost of producing one watch if the company produced 110,000 watches in 2018

Sales / Numbers of watches produced

= 269,500 / 110,000

= $2,45

Workings of schedule of cost of Goods Manufactured

Utilities =0.65 × 9,200 = 5,980

Insurance = 0.7 × 2,500 = 1,750

Rent Expense = 0.9 × 27,000 = 24,300

Factory equipment depreciation = Cost - Salvage value / Number of years

= 50,000 - 5,000 / 5

= 45,000 /5

= 9,000

Workings of cost of Goods sold

Cost of good sold = Beginning finished good inventory + Cost of Good Manufactured - Ending finished good inventory

= 3,750 + 191,830

= 195,580

Workings of income statement

Utilities = 0.35 × 9,200 = 3,220

Insurance= 0.3 × 2,500 = 750

Selling Expense = 0.35 × 34,700 = 12,145

Administrative expense = 0.3 × 30,900 = 9,270

10% of rent expense allocated to selling & Administrative

Selling = 0.1 × 34,700 = 3,470

Administrative = 0.1 × 30,900 = 3,090

Income taxes = 0.21 × 27,275 = 5,727.75
