Answer:

$418,550

Explanation:

Steps are shown below:

a. The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{52,000}\times \text{\$50}}{\text{\$1.25}}}

= 2,040 units

b. The number of orders would be equal to

= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity

= $52,000 ÷ 2,040 units

=  25.49 orders

c. The average inventory would equal to

= Economic order quantity ÷ 2

= 2040 units ÷ 2

= 1,020 units

d. The total cost of ordering cost and carrying cost equals to

Ordering cost = Number of orders × ordering cost per order

= 25.49 orders × $50

= $1,275

Carrying cost = average inventory × carrying cost per unit

= 1,020 units × $1.25

= $1,275

So, the total annual cost would be  

= Purchase cost + ordering cost + carrying cost

= $416,000 + $1,275 + $1,275

= $418,550

Purchase cost = Annual demand × cost per unit

                        = 52,000 × $8

                        = $416,000

Primrose Yard receives 15,000 large trees each year that they process into 15,000 rough logs. Currently, Primrose sells the roug
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

c. It should process further because the reduction in the cost of the trees is irrelevant.

Explanation:

For the purpose of this Decision,

Benefit of processing further = Sales Value after processing – Sale Value before processing – Further Processing costs

Cost of acquiring trees is a sunk cost already incurred and hence is not relevant

Hence, benefit of processing = (0.80-0.20)*350 – 50

= $160

Hence, the answer is

c. It should process further because the reduction in the cost of the trees is irrelevant.

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

How many units are in process at May 31?

physical units ending WIP:            740

equivalent units WIP materials:    740

equivalent units WIP conversion: 296

Explanation:

We will add the beginning and started units, then subtract the trasnaferrd out to get the ending WIP inventory.

physical units:

beginning             490

started                1,650

transferred-out<u> (1,400) </u>

ending                  740

Now we will multiply by the percentage of completion to get the equivlent units of WIP on each category:

<u>equivalent units for ending WIP:</u>

materials    740 x 100% = 740

conversion 740 x 40% = 296

Which demographic group has the lowest level of representation as a judge in the federal courts?
uysha [10]
<span>The most recent study was done on June 1, 2017, and all information is from that date. There are 673 US District court judgeships and four territorial ones. At the time of this study, there were 160 active circuit court judges and 19 vacant positions, while there were 570 district court judges and a whopping 103 vacant positions. There are 59 female circuit court judges, 37%. Men, therefore, are in 63% of positions. Intesretingly, this number has actually improved, with only one woman serving in 1977. Disregarding race, 75% of circuit court judges are white, 13% African American, 9% Hispanic, and only 3% Asian American. 12 courts have African American judges, nine have Hispanic, and five have Asian American. Overall, all three percentages have risen since 1977 (with some variability), but interestingly, Asian Americans have only recently begun to rise in presence., starting in about 2010. Combining gender and race, white men make up 45.6% of all circuit court judges, while Asian American women only make up 0.6%. In all races, men overpower women in numbers by a large amount. Looking at age, the average is 64.7 years old, with over 50% over 65 and only 2% under 45. The vast majority were appointed between 45 and 54, though many came slightly before or after. It is worth noting that the first openly gay circuit court judge was Todd M. Hughes, appointed by Obama in 2013. If we are considering race, Asian Americans are the lowest represented. If we are considering gender, women are less represented. Overall in race and gender, Asian American women are least represented. Looking at age, people under 40 are underrepresented. Overall, though, the least common demographic would be open members of the LGBT+ community. As you can see, this is not a straightforward question! It is a hugely interesting topic and one I plan to explore further.</span>

The accounting equation is assets = liabilities + owner’s equity.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. Why must this equation always balance?

It must balance because all the assets that firm controls have been acquired either by external funding (liabilities), or by internal funding (owner's equity).

This also explains the relationship between economic resources and claims to economic resources. Economic resources (assets) are either the claim of an external agent that has to be paid in the future (liability), or the claim of one of the company's owners who could in theory dissolve the company and take possession of the company's assets (equity).

B. What transactions increase or decrease owner’s equity?

Profits increase owner's equity, as well as capita contributions, whether in the form of stocks, equipment, or other financial instruments.

Costs and expenses are substracted from revenues, and therefore they reduce profits, and owner's equity.

C. How does net income or loss affect owner’s equity?

A net income profit increases owner's equity, while a net income loss decreases owner's equity.

D. Please give an example of a transaction, applied to the accounting equation.

ABC corporation issues 1,000 common stocks with par value of $5, and a price per stock of $7. The journal entry is:

Account                                    Debit                Credit

Cash                                        $7,000

Common Stock                                                 $5,000

Additional Paid-In Capital                                $2,000

In this transaction, cash is an asset and common stock and additional paid-in capital are part of the stockholder's equity. The corporation does not have any liabilities yet.

ABC Corp accounting equation = Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder's equity

                                                     = $7,000 = 0 + $7,000

As can be seen, the accounting equation is true even in the earliest stages of the corporation.

A British firm may need dollars to pay for U.S. imports. It can work with banks in London to exchange pounds for dollars to make
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is Spot market.

Explanation:

The spot market or spot market is one in which both the transaction and the settlement of an operation coincide on the same date. Although it is considered cash market when delivery occurs up to a maximum of 2 days later.

In spot markets, transactions are usually settled within a day or two after the date of purchase / sale. This is what is understood as a settlement in D + 1 or D + 2. The transactions are also closed at the current price on the asset in question that exists at the time of the transaction. This is one of the main differences between the cash market and the futures market.
