Explanation:
In a period of falling interest rates, a bond dealer would engage in all of the following activities except for IV. Therefore, a dealer would raise his quoted price in Bloomberg. If the dealer has an appreciated bond that he wishes to sell, he can place ''Request for Bids'' for those bonds in Bloomberg. The dealer may buy bond the he has previously sold short to limit losses due to rising price. To protect existing short position against the rising price, the dealer will buy call options, not put options. Put options are used in protecting existing long position from falling price.
Answer:
A. A only
Explanation:
U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) does not allow property, plant, and equipment to be written up or revalued. If the fair value of PP&E falls below the book value and the amount is material then a company must write down the asset to fair value.
Since under US GAAP, once PPE is written, it can not be reversed. as Company B is indicated to have reversed the write down while company A did not. It therefore means that Company A only is reporting under US GAAP.
Answer:
The store manager must decide to buy 3
Explanation:
Given that:
- The first: $200 a year
- The second $150
- The third $75,
- The fourth $50
- Interest rate is 12 percent
- Investment: $500
As we know that the rate of return will be: Income / Investment
So the rate of return of:
- The first: $200 / $500 = 0.4 = 40%
- The second $150 / $500 = 0,3 = 30%
- The third $75 / $500 = 0.15 = 15%
- The fourth $50 / $500 = 0.1 = 10%
Only three rug cleaners have the rate of return greater than the interest rate so the store manager must decide to buy 3
Answer:
d. $55,600
Explanation:
Direct Labor = $34,000
Manufacturing Overhead Cost = $21,600
Conversion Cost = Direct Labor + Manufacturing Overhead Cost
Conversion Cost = $34,000 + $21,600
Conversion Cost = $55,600
So, the conversion costs during the month totaled $55,600.
Answer:
Closing Stock = <u>38000 </u>
Explanation:
Net Sales = COGS + Gross Profit
- <u>Net sales</u> = sales - sales return = 185000 - 6000 = 179000
- <u>Gross Profit</u> = 60% of sales (as per gross profit ratio)
= 60% of 179000 = 107400
- <u>COGS </u>= Opening Stock + Net Purchase + direct expenses - Closing Stock
* <u>Net purchase</u> = Purchase - purchase return = 111000 - 4500 = 106500
*<u>Direct Expense</u> = Freight Inwards = 3100
Putting all values in formula :- Net Sales = COGS + Gross Profit
179000 = (0 + 106500 + 3100 - closing stock) + 107400
179000 = 106500 + 3100 + 107400 - closing stock
179000 = 217000 - closing stock
closing stock = 217000 - 179000
closing stock = 38000
