Mama L [17]

Answer:

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Profit as per FIFO is higher than profit as per LIFO

Explanation:

In the given case, as per both the methods computation shall be as follows:

Date Quantity Rate Amount

Mar 1 22 units $29 $638

Jun 16 31 units $30 $930

Nov 28 41 units $37 $1,517

Total 94 units $3,085

Closing units = 18

That means sales = 94 - 18 = 76 units

Thus as per LIFO cost = 41 units @ $37 + 31 units @ $30 + 4 units @ $29

= $2,563

Closing stock = 18 units @ $29 = $522

As per FIFO cost = 22 units @ $29 + 31 units @ $30 + 23 units @ $37 = $2,419

Closing stock = 18 units @ $37 = $666

Thus, difference of closing stock = $666 - $522 = $144

Profit as per FIFO is higher by $144

Cost is higher in LIFO by $2,563 - $2,419 = $144

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Why might a project manager avoid using technical language when giving a presentation to clients?

Reil [10]

Answer:

Forget that you’re up there not to promote how wonderful you are, but to provide value to the audience.

Lose focus of what the audience needs from you. One way: Before you start talking, ask, “What do you hope to learn/achieve from this meeting?”

Fail to set objectives. Even if you don’t share them with participants, know what you want to achieve.

Proceed without a plan (also known as an agenda). Whatever you call it, it’s a map for how your session is going to go.

Wing it. Preparation is everything. Unless you’re an improv master, you have to figure out what you’re going to do, in what order and for how long. And almost everyone needs to practice.

Jump from point to point in a disorganized way. See #4 and #6.

Suppose that the equation for the SML is Y = 0.05 + 0.07X, where Y is the average expected rate of return, 0.05 is the vertical

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Risk free interest rate is 5%

Y is 15.5% at a Beta of 1.5

X is 0.29 when Y is 7%

Explanation:

Risk free interest is 0.05 which 5% as given in the equation

The average expected return is given by Y

Y=0.05+0.07X

Since Beta is the same as X, when equals 1.5,Y is calculated thus

Y=0.05+0.07(1.5)

Y=0.05+0.105

Y=0.155

Y=15.5%

The value of Beta at an average return of 7% is computed thus:

7%=0.05+0.07X

where X is the unknown

0.07=0.05+0.07X

0.07-0.05=0.07X

0.02=0.07X

X=0.02/0.07

X=0.29

The scenario illustrates that the Beta, which is the risk of investment and the Y , the expected average return are positively correlated.
