<u>Intermodal</u> transportation refers to the seamless transfer of goods from one mode of transportation (such as a barge) to another (such as a truck) as needed to deliver the merchandise.

Explanation:

Intermodal transportation as the name suggests is the use of several modes of transportation to deliver the merchandise to the customers. This need arises due to the diversity of terrain, cost considerations or due to some special factors.

The intermodal mode has been quite favourable in harnessing the benefits of a different mode of transportation. E.g. use of multimodal Ro-Ro ferry has been quite popular in inland navigation. This is also an example of efficient use of inland waterways, land route offering seamless connectivity.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Marigold Company

Cost of goods sold = $9,119

Ending inventory = $7,461

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                            Units    Unit Cost    Total Cost

April 1 inventory    250         $14            $ 3,500

April 15 purchase  420           17                 7,140

April 23 purchase 330           18                5,940

Total                    1,000                           $16,580

Weighted-average costs   $16.58

Sales                     550

Cost of goods sold = 550 * $16.58 = $9,119

Ending inventory = 450 * $16.58 = $7,461

b) The first computation is for the total cost of goods available, which is then divided by the total units available for sale.  This gives the weighted-average cost per unit.  This unit cost is then multiplied with the units of ending inventory and sales to obtain the cost of the ending inventory and the cost of goods sold, respectively.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

A. Unrealized Holding  Loss - Trading 3,400

Fair Value  Adjustment - Trading 3,400

Explanation:

Since this investment is classified as a trading investment, any change in its fair market value must be included in their income statement. The appropriate journal entry should be:

Dr Unrealized loss on trading security 3,400

     Cr Debt investments 3,400

This will decrease the carrying value of the debt investments in the balance sheet and the loss will be included in the 2019 income statement. The fair value adjustment account normally has a credit balance since it decreases the carrying value of the investment account.

Beginning WIP           5,000 30% completed

transferred units       39,500

ending WIP                 4,500  25% completed

the transferred units

- complete portion for the beginning WIP

+ complete portion of the ending WIP

transferred out                      39,500

work in previous period

5,000 x 30% =                         (1,500)

The aggregate demand for good X is Q​ = 20 minus ​P, and the market price is P​ = $8. What is the maximum amount that consumers
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

so maximum amount that consumers are willing to pay for the quantity demanded at this​ price = $168

Explanation:

given data

Q​ = 20 - ​P

P​ = $8

to find out

maximum amount that consumers are willing to pay for the quantity demanded at this​ price

solution

we get here demand at current market price that is

Q = 20 - P

Q = 20 - 8

Q = 12

and Total expenditure incurred will be at at current market price will be

Total expenditure incurred  = Price × Quantity ..................1

Total expenditure incurred  = $8 × 12

Total expenditure incurred  = $96

and

we get price when Q = 0

Q = 20 - P  

P = 20

so now consumer surplus will be here as

consumer surplus = 0.5 × ( Price when(Q = 0) - Current market price) × Quantity ............................2

put her value we get

consumer surplus = 0.5 × ( 20 - 8 ) × 12

consumer surplus = $72

and

now we get maximum amount that is

maximum amount = Current expenditure + Consumer surplus  

maximum amount = $96 + $72

maximum amount = $168

so maximum amount that consumers are willing to pay for the quantity demanded at this​ price = $168
