<span>The CPI is a measure of the overall cost of the goods and services bought by a typical consumer, and the CPI is computed and reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The CPI stands for Consumer Price Index. The consumer price index will measure the weighted average pricing of what a basket of goods or services is priced at. They then calculate and average these prices to see what the price will change to overtime and how consumers will react to the market change in price. </span>
Answer:
Dr accounts payable $2,300
Cr cash $2300
Explanation:
Initially the cost of the purchases=$4600
Returning half of the disc means the left for the discs actually bought is half of the invoice price of $4600 i.e $2,300
By not paying within the discount period implies that the debt stands at $2,300
Without mincing words,payment of $2,300 to the supplier automatically translates to debiting account payable with $2,300 and crediting cash account with the same amount.
The correct answer would :
Dr accounts payable $2,300
Cr cash $2300
This is missing from the options provided.

We add the units purchase and the subtotal to get the total units available for sale.
Ending inventory physical units: 970 - 810 = 160 units
<u>Then, we calculate for each method:</u>
Weighted average:
cost of goods / available units = 10,190 / 970 = 10.51
160 units x 10.51 = 1,681.6
LIFO:
Ending inventory will be the oldest units:
160 units x 8 = 960
FIFO:
Ending inventory will be the newest units as the units are sold as soon as they come in
90 x 15 = 1,350
70 x 13 = 910
Total 2,260
Answer:
the amount charged is $178.43
Explanation:
The computation of the price charged is shown below:
As we know that
Future value = Present value × (1 + rate)^number of years
So,
Present value = Future value ÷ (1 + rate)^no of years
= $1,000 ÷ (1 + 0.09)^20
= $1,000 ÷ 1.09^20
= $178.43
Hence, the amount charged is $178.43
Answer:
A) Shortage, B) Fall in Price
Explanation:
A] Market is at equilibrium where - downward sloping Market Demand (inversely related to price), & upward sloping Market Supply (directly related to price) - are equal & these curves intersect each other.
Above condition gives us equilibrium price & quantity.
If market price < equilibrium price, as given case 15 < 20. Then, supply being directly related to price is lesser, demand being inversely related to price is higher. So, there is a situation of excess demand, ie <u>shortage </u>(graphically denoted by distance between demand & supply curve at actual price below equilibrium price)
B] Dealers of hybrid vehicles increase imply increase in supply of these vehicles, rightwards shift in the supply curve. This creates excess supply ie surplus of them. It implies that competition among sellers lead to <u>fall in price </u>of these hybrid vehicles.
