Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory using the each method is shown below:

a. FIFO

Since the 57 units is in physical inventory so 40 units should be taken at $357 i.e from latest purchase and the remaining 17 units is at $342

= 40 units × $357 + 17 units × $342

= $20,094

b. LIFO

Since the 57 units is in physical inventory so 20 units should be taken at $360 and the rest 37 units at $342

= 20 units × $360 + 37 units × $342

= $19,854

c. Weighted average cost method

= Weighted average cost per unit × ending inventory units

where,

Weighted average cost per unit is

= $110,400 ÷ 320 units

= $345

And, the ending inventory units is 57 units

So, the ending inventory is

= 57 units  $345

= $19,665

Leker exchanged real property that was used exclusively for business and had an adjusted tax basis of $20,000 for new real prope
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

$17,000

Explanation:

Leker's Old Property Adjusted Tax Basis = $20,000

To calculate the new basis, subtract the $3000 recieved in cash from the new property.

New Tax Basis; $20,000-$3,000= $17,000

The transaction of Leker to exchange a real property for another led to a loss: Meaning a Property of $20,000 was exchanged for a property of $10,000+ $3,000 (cash)= $13,000

The Loss on the transaction= $20,000- $13,000= $7,000

Due to the loss no gain is recognized and the $3000 will reduce the basis for his new asset.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Entry to record adjustment:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Explanation:

The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.

The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:

Entry:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Allocative efficiency occurs:
jonny [76]

Answer:

a. Anywhere inside or on the production possibilities frontier.

Explanation:

In an economy, the allocative efficiency may be defined as the economic state where the production of various goods or services is aligned with the preferences with the consumers.  

The allocative efficiency always materializes at the intersection of the supply curves and the demand curves.

On the \text{equilibrium point,} the price for a supply \text{exactly matches} with the demand for the product \text{for that supply} at that price, and thus all the products are sold.

It occurs anywhere on the production possibilities frontier or on the inside of the frontier.

Therefore, the correct option is (a).
