Answer:
B
Explanation:
It is said that the required ending inventory for the month is $15000 and 20% of the next month's sales.
We are considering the month of march here, therefore the ending merchandise inventory is $15000- and 20% of April's sales.
Given:
April's sales = $91,000
Hence, 20% of April's sales = 0.2*91000 = $18200
Hence, ending merchandise inventory for March = 15000 + 18200 = $33,200
Answer:
a. Accept the order
b. Increase in short-term profit of $50,000
Explanation:

Therefore fixed costs are Irrelevant for this decision.
<u>Incremental Costs and Revenues - accept the special order</u>
Sales ( 10,000 units × $22 each) $220,000
<em>Less</em> Variable Costs ( 10,000 units × $17each) ($170,000)
Net Income $50,000
The special order will result in an increase in short term profit of $50,000. Therefore, Blowing Sand Company should accept the order.
Answer:
<u><em>$69.80</em></u>
Explanation:
Note, a market order is an order designed to execute an order immediately by <em>matching the best available price</em> on the sell order list.
When we look carefully at the sell order book, we observe that the only sell order containing the specified quantity of 120 units of shares at a price close to the market price is <u>$69.80.</u> Even though there are other cheaper orders are available, their order quantity does <em>not </em>match the market buy order for the 120 shares and thus would not be filled.
