Answer:

The correct answer is $240,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, given data are as follows:

Beginning inventory at cost = $70,000

Beginning inventory at retail = $100,000

Net purchases at cost = $270,000

Net purchases at retail = $360,000

Total sales = $320,000

According to the LIFO method.

Particulars                        Cost                       Retail              Cost/Retail Ratio

Beginning inventory             $70,000                $100,000                     70%

Net purchases                      $270,000              $360,000                     75%

Total Inventory                     $340,000             $460,000

Total sales                                                       $320,000

Ending inventory ( Estimated )

($360,000-$320,000)× 75%  $30,000

$70,000 × 70%                      $70,000

Ending inventory at cost         $100,000

Estimated cost of goods sold   $240,000.

Hence the correct answer is $240,000.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

I am willing to pay $1,202,235.89 for this annuity.

Explanation:

Calculate Present value of future cash flow to calculate the price for the annuity should be paid now.

Monthly receipt = PMT = $200,000

Number of years = n = 25 years

Rate of return = r = 16.25% = 0.1625

PV = PMT x [ 1- ( 1 + r )^-n )] / r

PV = $200,000 x [ 1 - ( 1 + 0.1625 )^-25 ) ] / 0.1625

PV = $200,000 x [ 1 - ( 1.1625 )^-25 )] / 0.1625

PV = $1,202,235.89
