gregori [183]

Answer:

3.8 times

Explanation:

Inventory turnover indicates how many times a company sells and replaces its stock of goods during a particular period. The formula for inventory turnover ratio is the cost of goods sold divided by the average inventory for the same period.

$ 320,000 / 63,000 = 5.1 times in 2022

$283,500 / 32,000 = 8.9 times in 2023

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The answer is: full disclosure principle

Explanation:

Full disclosure principle in accounting refers to the requirement that businesses are supposed to provide all material information pertaining to their operations to the stakeholders of the business so as to facilitate better decision-making frameworks when evaluating the business.

The going concern principle is based on the assumption that the business will not cease operating in the foreseeable future. The matching principle requires that the expenses incurred in carrying out an economic activity are recorded in the same period as the revenues earned from that activity.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

keep producing in the short run but exit the industry or go out of business in the long run

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

A firm should shut down in the short run if price is less than average variable cost. But since the diner's price is greater than average variable cost, it should continue production.

A firm should exit the industry in the long run if price is less than average total cost. the diner's price is less than average total cost, so it should shut down in the long run
