The number of additional items that Belle Co. purchased is equal to 27. That is, 7 + 8 + 12 which is equal to 27. The concept of LIFO is "Last In First Out" which means that the ones that has been purchased last should be dispensed off first. 

The company sold 31 units. 27 of this is already the newly purchased ones and 4 came from the beginning inventory leaving the number of items to only 8 sets of paint for $1.5. 

The cost of the ending inventory is,

                 I = 8($1.5) = $12

The answer is letter C. $12.00.

Answer: The correct answer is choice c - $12.00.

Explanation: The LIFO method of inventory stands for Last In, First Out. This means that the value of the most recent inventory purchased is used to value the products sold.

In this case there was a beginning inventory of 12 units at a cost of $1.50 each. Throughout the year there were 27 additional paint sets purchased and 31 sets sold. Using the LIFO method, the 31 sets sold were the 27 that were purchased throughout the year, plus 4 from beginning inventory. This only leaves 8 of the beginning inventory left as ending inventory. The value of each of these is $1.50, so the total is 8 units x $1.50 = $12.00 value of ending inventory.

Under LIFO, net income exists if revenues are sufficient to cover the __________ cost of the units of inventory sold, provided n
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

<u>total</u>

Explanation:

Remember, a LIFO method of accounting for inventory differs in that it  records the most recently produced items as sold first; meaning Last in, First Out. Thus leading to recording  the lowest cost of older products in the inventory.

A case of lower Net income (income after deductions of cost) thus exists if revenues are sufficient to cover the total cost of the units of inventory sold which reduces taxes.

The question is incomplete:

Carl wants to add a new slide to his PowerPoint presentation. Which option should he use?

A) On the Insert tab, click the Insert New command.

B) On the Insert tab, click the Add New command.

C) On the Home tab, click the New Slide command.

D) On the Home tab, click the Arrange command.

Answer:

C) On the Home tab, click the New Slide command.

PowerPoint is Microsoft software that is used to prepare presentations. If you want to add a new slide that is a page of the presentation, you can go to the home tab that is the default tab that appears on the top of the program and choose the option new slide. According to that, the answer is: on the Home tab, click the New Slide command.

The other options are not right because there is no insert new or add new command on the Insert tab and the arrange command is used for organizing the objects.

Anon25 [30]

     To Cash Account $150

(Being bank charges is recorded)

2. Hedge Instrument - Financial Asset Dr, $600  

        To Profit and Loss A/c $600

(Being financial assets is recorded)

3. Profit and Loss A/c Dr, $600

(Being profit and loss account is recorded)

4. Bank A/c Dr, $22,400  

          To Sales $22,400

(Being bank account is recorded)

2. The computation of the gross margin and locked with the put option and actual reported gross margin is shown below:-

Particulars   Rate    Pounds   Amount   Gross Margin    Gross Margin

Cost Price   $2.15   10,000    $21,500

Strike Price   $2.3 10,000     $23,000      $1,500             6.98%

Cost after hedge

loss of           $0.6    2.09        10,000       $20,900

Selling Rate   $2.24 10,000    $22,400       $1,500         7.18%

Gross margin locked with the put option: 6.98%

Actual reported gross margin: 7.18%

The two amounts are different, since the carrying value of the inventory has changed and the same has been reduced. As a result the total gross margin of 1,500 yielded another percentage as the base value (inventory carrying value) was adjusted.
