Answer:

Number of vats used is 3

Explanation:

Number of pounds used per hour, D = 195 ÷ 8

= 24.375 pounds per hour

Cycle time, T = 2.25

Inefficiency factor, e = 0.19

Material held in vats, C = 25 pounds

Now,

Let, n be total number of vats

Thus,

n = \frac{DT(1+e)}{C}

on substituting the respective values, we get

n =\frac{25.75\times2.25\times(1+0.10)}{25}

or

n = 2.413 ≈ 3

Number of vats used is 3  [since vats cannot be in fraction]

Goodman Company's inventory records show the following data: Units 5,000 4,500 3,000 Unit Cost $9.00 8.20 7.00 Inventory, Januar
balu736 [363]

Answer:

A. 3000 units x $7 = $21000

Explanation:

FIFO (First-In-First-Out) is a method of inventory valuation where the stock that is purchased first is used first. In other words, the oldest stock is used first. This is common for perishable items which if not used up fast, will be wasted.

Jan 01 - Beginning inventory : 5000 units x $9 = $45000

Jun 18 - Purchases : 4500 units x $8.20 = $36900

Nov 08 - Purchases : 3000 units x $7 = $21000

Total inventory = 5000 + 4500 + 3000 = 12,500 units

Ending inventory = 3,000 units

Hence, inventory sold = 9,500 units

The cost of goods sold using FIFO:

5000 units x $9 = $45000

4500 units x $8.20 = $36900

COGS = $45000 + $36900 = $81900 (9500 units)

Ending inventory :

3000 units x $7 = $21000 (3000 units)

Suppose a bank enters a repurchase agreement in which it agrees to buy Treasury securities from a correspondent bank at a price
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Yield with 6-day maturity is 7.70%

Yield with 18-day maturity is 2.57%

Explanation:

The formula for yield on repurchase is given as:

y = ( PAR – P ) / P x (360 / t )

P=Purchase price

PAR=Repurchase price

t= number of days of the transaction

In first scenario,PAR is $39 million,P is $38.95 million and t=6

y=($39000000-38950000)/38950000*(360/6)

y=7.70%

In the second scenario,details remained the same except for t that is 18

y=($39000000-38950000)/38950000*(360/18)

y=2.57%

This implies the longer the maturity the lesser the yield since yield is computed on daily basis.
