The Cost of Good Sold is $36,000 lower than it should have been and the net income is $36,000 higher than it should have been.
There are two formulas that are important to know for this question. The first is Beg. Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory = COGS. The second formula is Sales - Cost of Good Sold = Gross Profit.
If you reported a higher ending inventory it is going to result in a lower value for Cost of Good Sold. In this case the company had too high of an ending inventory by $36,000, which mean that the COGS is $36,000 lower than actual.
When you have a COGS that is lower than it should be you are going to have a gross profit which is overstated. The Income is overstated by $36,000.
Answer:
By $41,000 the next year's sales are derived from the side effects of adding the new product to its sales offerings.
Explanation:
For calculating the sale for next year, the tent expense and climbing gear is to be considered. With the help of these, the next year sale from the side effects can be derived. The sleeping bag cost is not to be considered so it would not be taken for calculation. The computation is shown below:
= (Tent Expense Next year + Climbing gear Next year ) - (Tent Expense Previous year + Climbing gear Previous year )
= ( $264,000 + $426,000) - ( $238,000 + $411,000)
= ($690,000 - $649,000)
= $41,000
Thus, by $41,000 the next year's sales are derived from the side effects of adding the new product to its sales offerings.
the answer is: it helps prevent people from keeping their cash out circulation
After collecting the money from the saver, Banks will provide loans to other business who needs a capital injection and put an interest rates from the total loan. This is the main way Banks obtain their profit.
This means that <em>The more cash kept out of circulation , the more profit the Banks can potentially get.</em>
Because of this, they offers various incentives for the saver to kept their money in the banks rather than using it somewhere else through interest, deposit insurance, maximum withdrawal, etc)
