slava [35]

Answer:

Truman has a higher inventory turnover ratio and Stapleton has a higher gross profit ratio ( D )

Explanation:

Truman sell a large number of common household items ( assuming 100 unit )

while Stapleton sells a small number of expensive items ( assuming 20 units )

lets assume : Truman sells at $5 per unit and Stapleton sells at $50 per unit

with the above assumptions

Truman gross profit ratio = $5 * 100 units = $500

Stapleton gross profit ratio = $50 * 20 units = $1000

from the above assumptions you can deduce that the gross profit made by Stapleton is higher although he sells a smaller amount of goods while Truman has a higher Turnover because of its higher number of sold units

A post-closing trial balance should be prepared
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

<h2>Post-Closing trial balance is usually prepared after the closing entries are posted to the ledger account.Hence,the correct answer is the third option or after closing entries are posted to the ledger accounts.</h2>

Explanation:

In Accounting,the main objective of preparing a post-closing trial balance is to ensure the completion and closure of all the temporary accounts and the equality between all the debit and credit entries have been consistently established once the closing entry has been done.Once the closing entries have been put into journal and finally posted in ledger,a detailed account or list of all the individual accounts along with their respective balances is prepared which is basically known as Post Closing Trial Balance Account.It includes all the unbalanced accounts from the original trial balance or the accounts which are not balanced based on debt and credit entries,at the end of the accounting or reporting year.Therefore,post-trial balance basically ensures that all the accounts entered in the original trial balance are zero balance or the debit and credit entries of all the individual accounts in trial balance are balanced or equal.
