Answer: 18.92%

Explanation:

The formula to find the compound amount :-

A=P(1+r)^t, where P is the Principal amount, r is the rate of interest and t is the time period.

Given : P= $1500

A = $6000

Time = 8 years

Then 6000=1500(1+r)^8

i.e. (1+r)^8=\dfrac{6000}{1500}=4

i

Taking natural log on both sides , we get

\Rightarrow\ 8\ln(1+r)=\ln(4)\\\\\Rightarrow\ \log(1+r)=\dfrac{\log4}{8}=\dfrac{1.38629436112}{8}=0.17328679514\\\\\Rightrarrow\ 1+r=e^{0.17328679514}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1+r=1.189207115\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=1.189207115-1=0.189207115\\\\\Rightarrow\ r\approx0.1892\approx18.92\%

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Expenditures $300,000; Supplies inventory $150,000.

Explanation:

The consumption method recognizes an asset when an item is purchased and an expense when an item is used or consumed. Therefore, when supplies are first bought, Supplies Inventory has a balance of $450,000.

After using those supplies during the year, $300,000 should be debited from Supplies Inventory and credited to Expenditures.

Therefore, at fiscal year-end, the appropriate account balances on the General Fund financial statements would be: Expenditures $300,000; Supplies inventory $150,000.
