Assume you have $2,000 in a savings account at the beginning of the year and the price level is equal to 100. If the price level
leva [86]

Answer:

$1,667

Explanation:

Given that,

Savings account at the beginning of the year = $2,000

Price level at the beginning of the year = 100

Price level at the end of the year = 120

Price level increases from 100 to 120

Therefore, what was worth $120 earlier, is not worth only $100.

Hence, $120 at the beginning of the year is worth = $100 at the end of the year

$1 at the beginning of the year is worth = ($100 ÷ $120) at the end of the year

Savings of $2,000 at the beginning of the year is worth:

= ($100 ÷ $120) × $2,000

= 0.833 × $2,000

= $1,667

Therefore, the real value of the savings is $1,667.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold:</u>

<u></u>

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory

COGS= 12,000 + 87,000 - 23,000

COGS= $76,000

<u>Traditional format income statement:</u>

Sales= 14,000*16= 224,000

COGS= (76,000)

Gross profit= 148,000

Total selling expense= (20,000 + 14,000*1)= (34,000)

Total administrative expense= (13,000 + 14,000*1)= (27,000)

Net operating income= 87,000

<u>Contribution format income statement:</u>

Sales= 14,000*16= 224,000

Total variable cost= (76,000 + 14,000 + 14,000)= (104,000)

Contribution margin= 120,000

Total fixed selling expense= (20,000)

Total fixed administrative expense= (13,000)

Net operating income= 87,000
