Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The computation is shown below:-

Explanation:

1. FIFO LIFO Average cost

Cost of goods sold

Beginning inventory $11,200 $11,200 $11,200

(400 units × $28))

purchases $16,625 $16,625 $16,625

(475 units × 35)

Goods available for use $27,825 $27,825 $27,825

Ending inventory $18,025 $15,575 $16,695

(525 units)

Cost of goods sold $9,800 $12,250 $11,130

under ending inventory = 475 × $35 + 50 × $28

FIFO = $18,025

LIFO ending inventory 400 × $28 + 125 × $35

= $15,575

Average cost = $27,825 ÷ $875

= 31.8

Ending inventory = 525 × 31.8

= $16,695

2. FIFO LIFO Average

Sales

(307 × $50) $15,350 $15,350 $15,350

Cost of goods sold $9,800 $12,250 $11,130

Gross Profit $5,550 $3,100 $4,220

Expenses $1,680 $1,680 $1,680

Net income $3,870 $1,420 $2,540

3. FIFO = 3

LIFO = 2

Average = 1

Answer:

adding up consumption, investment, government expenses, and net exports

adding up the market prices of final goods and services produced in the U.S

adding up the incomes of producers and taxes paid to the government

Explanation:

GDP is a measure of the sum value of a country's output in a given period. The GDP value reflects economic growth or decline in a country for the period under review.

GDP is calculated using three methods. They include the income, production, and expenditure approach.

In the Income approach, economists add up all the earnings from the factors of production. Wages and salaries of all employees; the profits from businesses and corporates' ; rents, and interests form landlords are summed up to get GDP. Adjustments are made to cater for the taxes paid to the relevant government agencies. ( 4th option)

The production approach involves getting the value of all the finished consumer goods and services in the economy. The approach excludes intermediary goods and work-n progress. GDP is obtained by adding the total of the finished products and services and multiplying them by their prices. (3rd option)

The consumption option applies a formula that GDP = C+G+I+ NX, where C is private consumption expenditure, G is government consumption and investment expenditure, and I in private investment expenditure. NX is the net imports. ( 1 st option )
