Answer:

A. FIFO - 78 units and $7,770 and Cost of Goods Sold $12,738

B. LIFO - Inventory Valuation $7,312 and Cost of Goods Sold $13,196

C. Weighted Average - inventory Valuation $7,304 and Cost of Goods Sold $13,204

Explanation:

Detailed calculation as under:

First 73 Units are sold from the inventory on May 1. Therefore, we first take the beginning inventory units and then we take the next in line purchases made during the period. In this case the first 34 units are completely taken and then out of the 44 units only 39 units are taken.

Next 68 units are sold from the inventory on October 28. Now we will take the remainder 5 units bought on March 28 (which are not yet sold). Then we take 63 units out of the 68 units purchased on August 22.

The company's ending inventory on FIFO Basis is remaining 5 units bought on 22 August and 73 units bought on 14 October. There total value is (5 x 94) + (73 x 100) = $7,770

Cost of Goods Sold = Total Goods Cost available for sale - Inventory ending valuation

$12,738 = $20,508 - $7,770

First 73 Units are sold from the inventory on May 1. Therefore, we first take the units purchased on 28 March and then we take the beginning inventory. In this case the first 44 units are completely taken and then out of the 34 units only 29 units are taken.

Next 68 units are sold from the inventory on October 28. Now we will take the units bought on 14 October i.e. 68 units out of the 73 units bought.

The company's ending inventory on LIFO Basis is remaining 5 units in the beginning inventory, remaining 5 units bought on 14 October and 68 units bought on 22 August. There total value is (5 x 84) + (5 x 100) + (68 x 94) = &7,312

Cost of Goods Sold = Total Goods Cost available for sale - Inventory ending valuation

$13,196 = $20,508 - $7,312

<u>C. Weighted Average</u>

In order to calculate Weighted average cost method we divide the total cost of inventory (Beginning and Purchased) with the total units, this yields average cost per unit. Then we multiple the average cost per unit with the units remaining after sales. As shown below:

$20,508 / 219 = $93.64 per unit

$93.64 x 78 units = $7,304

dsp73

Answer:

The answer is: b

Explanation:

In long-run equilibrium, the long run aggregate demand curve and aggregate supply curve intersect where the marginal revenue (revenue derived from selling an additional unit) and marginal cost (cost incurred from producing) an additional unit) are equal. In the long-run equilibrium, this intersection occurs at the lowest point of the long-run average total cost curve (curve depicting the average cost per unit of production).

Holding all else constant, short run changes in the economy would not change the potential output levels. The long-run aggregate supply curve would remain fixed at the potential level of output. However, these changes: international tensions, corporate scandals and loss of confidence in policymakers would cause shifts in the aggregate demand curve since demand would be adversely affected.

Consumer confidence is the perspective or outlook that consumers have on the state of the economy. The destabilising factors given in this scenario would raise the levels of uncertainty and perceived risk, reducing the confidence levels of consumers and ultimately resulting in reduced demand. In long-run equilibrium, when demand is reduced, it is indicated by a leftward shift in the aggregate demand curve.

Mr. Smith is hired as a consultant to a firm evaluating entry into a perfectly competitive industry. Mr. Smith determined that a

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

P = 70, Ed = ∞ , Firm = Price Taker , Free Entry & Exit

Homogeneous Product , No selling costs , Long Run Normal Profits

Explanation:

Perfect Competition is a market form with : many number of buyers & sellers, selling homogeneous goods at uniform prices, while firms & consumers having perfect information & no selling costs.

In this market : Price = Marginal Cost , as taken by all firms from the industry & so demand curve is horizontal parallel to x axis - denoting perfectly elastic demand i.e infinite sale at prevailing price.

As market's all sellers goods are homogeneous & all have perfect information about it, no selling costs are required. Free Entry & Exit in industry also imply that Industry's profits are confined to 'Normal Profits' (No Supernormal profit / abnormal loss) in long run.

So, Smith's report would include all the above mentioned remarks.

Suppose an economy’s entire output is cars. in year 1, all manufacturers produce cars at $15,000 each; the real gdp is $300,000.

adelina 88 [10]

Formula for the Real GDP:
RGDP = Quantity in the current year x Price of the output in the base year
The base year should be the 1st year:
RGDP 1 = $300,000, P 1 = $15,000
Q 1st = $300,000 : $15,000 = 20 cars
In the 2nd year we also have: Q 2nd = 20,produced at $16,000 each.
The Nominal GDP = 20 x $16,000 = $320,000 ( market value )
But the Real GDP = 20 x $15,000 = $300,000.
Answer: The real GDP in the year 2 is $300,000.
