The amount of money Shawheen deposited in his savings account increased in value because of the interest rate his account earns.
The initial deposit might have a higher purchasing power because of inflation.
When money is deposited in a savings account, the amount of money earns interest.
The value of the interest rate can be determined using this formula: interest earned / (time x amount deposited)
Interest earned = $$5,306.04 - $5,000 = $306.04
Interest rate = $306.04 / (3 x $5000) = 2.04%
Inflation is the persistent rise in the general price levels. Inflation reduces the purchasing power of money.

Answer:
Huprey Co.
Identifying the accounting treatment for each claim as either (a) a liability that is recorded or (b) an item described in notes to its financial statements:
1. Huprey (defendant) estimates that a pending lawsuit could result in damages of $1,550,000; it is unlikely that the plaintiff will win the case.a. A liability that is recorded.
b. An item described in notes to its financial statements.
2. Huprey faces a loss on a pending lawsuit that it is unlikely to lose; the amount is reasonably estimable.
a. An item described in notes to its financial statements. b. A liability that is recorded.
3. Huprey faces a probable loss on a pending lawsuit; the amount is reasonably estimable.a. An item described in notes to its financial statements.
b. A liability that is recorded.
Explanation:
Huprey Co. will recognize and record contingent liabilities in its accounts when it can be reasonably established that the future event will occur and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The implication is that Huprey Co. must establish two things before a contingent liability is recognized and recorded. One is that the probability or the likelihood or the chance that the event will happen exists and can be estimated. With the probability estimate, it becomes possible for Huprey Co. to also estimate the amount that the happening of the event will cost it.
Answer:
Cost variance= 7 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Each bat requires 1 kg of aluminum at $18 per kg and 0.25 direct labor hours at $20 per hour. Overhead is assigned at the rate of $40 per direct labor hour. Assume the actual cost to manufacture one metal bat was $40.
Estimated cost= 18 + 0.25*20 + 0.25*40= 33
Actual cost= 40
Cost variance= 7 unfavorable
Answer:
a) 15 to 35 approximately 95%
(b) 10 to 40 approximately almost all
(c) 20 to 30 approximately 68%
Explanation:
The data have a bell-shaped distribution which means the data is equally distributed on both sides of the mean.
We have the mean at 25 and a standard deviation of 5 which means that the interval is for each of the values of 5 .
The mean would be u and
The first value would be u ±σ = 25 ± 5= 20 and 30 (68 % )
The second value will be u ± 2σ= 25± 10 = 15 and 35 (95%)
The third value will be u ± 3σ= 25 ± 15 = 10 and 40 (99.7 % almost all)
In the figure below the light blue region gives u ±σ on both sides of the mean
, dark blue gives u ± 2σ values on both sides of the mean and grey gives
u ± 3 σ values on both sides of the mean.
It is obvious that 68 % of the data is contained in the u ±σ light blue region, 95 % of the data in the u ± 2σ dark blue including light blue and 99.7 % in the u ± 3σ all colored regions.
