Answer:

Option D - December

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Mandy read 16 books this year and read 2 books each month.

Bill wants to catch up to Mandy and follow:

Month        Books

May-          4

June-         8                        

July-          12  

From this table bill increases his books by 4 per month.

and Mandy Increases her books by 2 per month.

Let x represent the no. of months (x=1 represent the May)

Therefore,

For Mandy who already read 16 books in the end of April and reads 2 books each month ⇒ 16+2x

For Bill he wants to catch Mandy so he started with reading 4 books in a month ⇒4x

The month will Bill have read the same amount of books as Mandy

16+2x=4x

⇒16=2x

⇒x=8

i.e, from May to 8 months ⇒December

Month(x)           Mandy(16+2x)       Bill(4x)

May(1)                    18                          4  

June(2)                  20                         8

July(3)                    22                        12

August(4)               24                        16

September(5)        26                        20

October(6)             28                        24

November(7)          30                        28

December(8)          32                        32

At the end of December they will have read the same amount of books.

Hence, Option D is correct.

Prepare a perpetual inventory​ record, using the FIFO inventory costing​ method, and determine the​ company's cost of goods​ sol
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The First-In, First-Out (FIFO) inventory costing method assumes that the inventory items ordered first are the first ones sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The First-In, First-Out inventory costing method assumes that the inventory items ordered first are the first sold. This is ideal for goods that are highly perishable, for example fresh milk. Since no figures or dates are given, we will assume that the month is March 2019 and use any figures to make the example.

Date Item      Quantity of stock Cost Price

01  Opening stock bought on Feb 28  10   100

05  Sale of 5 goods (cost is $10 each)  (5)   50

15 Purchase of stock (20 goods at $20 each) 20   400

25 Sale of 15 goods                     (15)   250  

(5 at $10 each & 10 at $20 each)

31 Closing Stock               10   200

       (20 goods bought on 15th - 10 goods sold on 25th)

The quantity on hand at the end of the month is 10 units.  

Total cost of goods on hand at end of the month = 10 units * $20 = 200.

Total cost of goods purchased during the month = $20 * 20 units = $400

Total cost of goods sold during the month = [($10 *5) + ($10 * 5)+ ($20 * 10)] = $200
