Answer:

The correct answer is option (c).

Explanation:

Solution

From the question sated above the answer is, Firms or organisation decrease inventory because the more we spend on inventory, the more we will need to spend on the other related inventory expenditures.

The reason is because if the inventory is kept full or complete, then the cost related or connected with the maintenance of the inventory increases or goes up and it is not beneficial for the company itself.

Decrease assets, decrease liabilities. Accounts payable are what the business owes (liabilities). By paying off accounts payable, the liabilities are decreasing (they owe less) and the assets are also decreasing (because they use assets/cash to pay off the liabilities, so they have less now).

Suppose that the price of basketball tickets at your college is determined by market forces. Currently, the demand and supply sc
belka [17]

Answer:

a) see attached graph. There is nothing unusual with the supply curve, it is simply fixed. This happens to most services, e.g. there is a fixed number of hotel rooms available for rent, in the short run you cannot add more rooms per night if the demand increases. In order to increase the quantity supplied, you would need to build a larger hotel, or in this case, a larger stadium.

b) the equilibrium price is $8 and the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 tickets

c) if the college plans to increase enrollment, the demand might increase, leading to a higher equilibrium price, but the supply will remain the same until the stadium is expanded.

Explanation:

Price              Quantity Demanded (Qd)          Quantity Supplied (Qs)

$4                            10,000                                        8,000

$8                             8,000                                        8,000

$12                            6,000                                        8,000

$16                            4,000                                        8,000

$20                           2,000                                        8,000

purchased a new piece of equipment for its research lab on January 1, 2015 for $45,200. The equipment is expected to have a usef
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The gain recognized on the equipment is $6,550

Explanation:

A straight-line depreciation method distributes depreciation costs evenly throughout the useful life of the equipment, and depreciation per year using this method is calculated thus:

Depreciation per year = (Cost of equipment - salvage value) ÷ useful life

= (45,200 - 6,100) ÷ 4 = 39,100 ÷ 4 = $9,775

This means that each year, the machine depreciates by a value of $9,775.

Next, we are given that the machine was sold for $32,200 after two years, to determine if a profit or loss was made, we will calculate the expected residual value after two years, and find the difference between this value and the selling price. The residual value is calculated thus:

Residual value = Cost of equipment - (depreciation per year × number of years used)

Residual value = 45,200 - ( 9,775 × 2 )

Residual value = 45,200 - 19,550 = $25,650

Difference between residual value and selling price = 32,200 - 25,650 = $6,550 (profit was made since the selling price was higher than the value of the equipment)

Tom [10]

Answer:

a. Inventory Turnover:

= Cost of goods sold / Average inventory for the year

= 642,400 / 210,000

= 3.06

b. Number of days' sales in inventory

= Ending inventory / (COGS / 365)

= 156,409 / (642,400 / 365)

= 88.9 days

c. Accounts receivable turnover

= Net sales / Average Accounts Receivable

= 1,022,000 / 43,000

= 23.77 times

d. Number of days sales in accounts receivable

= Accounts Receivable at year end / (Net sales / 365)

= 22,400 / (1,022,000 / 365)

= 8 days

1. (a) Record a liability

2. (a) Record a liability

3. (b) Disclose in notes

<h3>What happens if you fail to record a liability?</h3>

Frequently, failing to register a responsibility entails also neglecting to record an expense. Income is decreased by expenses; but, in this case, this wasn't documented so that net income wouldn't be impacted when it should have been. The net income will be overstated as a result.

<h3>On a balance sheet, how do you record liabilities?</h3>

Unearned income or a "payables" account is normally where liabilities are recorded. In most cases, unless they are regarded as contra liabilities, they have a credit balance. As a result of discounting or lowering the amount owed, this kind of liability has a negative balance.
