Answer:

(A) less

Explanation:

Given a positive inflation rate, the real value of the dollar will depreciate by the rate of inflation annually.

Thus, for a house that cost $100,000 today, given a 3% inflation rate, it would cost (100,000 * 1.03 = ) $103,000 after a year.

This means, $100,000 today will have the same value as $103,000 one year later.

Therefore, repayments, which will likely be a fixed sum every year, will have a lower purchasing power as the year progresses.

C. $2,000

Explanation:

<u>Conversion Cost</u>

<u>conversion cost</u> = labor + overhead

CC = 5,000 + 4,400 = <u>9,400</u>

complete during the period   1,000 units

ending inventory                       200 units 50%

<u>Equivalent units:</u>

completed + ending worked portion

1,000 + 200 x 50% = 1,000 + 100 = <u>1,100</u>

CC equivalent unit cost  9,400/1,100 x 100 = 854.55

<u>Materials</u>

<u>Cost     $ 12,000</u>

<u>Equivalent units</u>

completed  1,000

ending          200 at 100%

completed + ending times added portion

1,000 + 200 x 100 % = 1,200

Equivalent unit cost: 12,000 / 1,200 = 10

Ending inventory 200 x 10 =         2,000
