Answer:

B) False

Explanation:

The correct phrase should be:

Generally speaking, oligopolistic industries producing raw materials and semifinished goods usually offer standardized products, while oligopolists producing consumer goods usually offer differentiated products.

A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's una
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: $5,440

Explanation:

When using the percent of sales method to determine bad debts, the company estimates a percentage that it believes will results in uncollectible debt and then applies it to the sales/revenue figure. The figure that is calculated is then debited along with the debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful accounts to the Bad debts account for the year and credited to the Allowance for doubtful accounts.

This company estimates that they will have 0.6% of credit sales uncollectible.

There are also $790,000 in sales of which all are on credit.

The Uncollectible estimate is therefore,

= 790,000 * 0.6%

= $4,740

This figure is then added to the debit amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts.

= 4,470 + 700

= $5,440

Note; A debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful debt account signifies that the bad debts were higher than anticipated the last time. This is why the figure is added to the current bad debts expense.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

2) the time consumers save when purchasing goods there.

Explanation:

Their name explains everything. A convenience store is a store where someone can go and purchase goods easily and without any type of difficulty.

Of course a Walmart is cheaper, but will you travel 20 minutes just to get there, and spend 20 more minutes choosing and paying for a cheap good like a Coke, and then 20 more minutes back home. Whatever you save on buying the Coke, you will spend 50 times more in gas and personal time.

So even if a Coke costs $1 more in a 7-Eleven, it is worth it. You will save a lot of money by purchasing your Coke there.

Concord Corporation reported the following year-end information: Beginning work in process inventory $1080000 Beginning raw mate
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Concord Corporation's cost of goods manufactured for the year is  $2,490,000

Explanation:

For computing the cost of goods manufactured, we have to use the formula which is given below:

= Opening Work in progress inventory + Direct material used + direct labor + manufacturing overhead - ending work in progress inventory

In the given question, the direct material used is not given, so we have to compute it. The formula is given below:

= Opening balance of raw material inventory + Purchase of raw material - ending balance of raw material inventory

= $300,000 + $930,000 - $480,000

= $750,000

And, the other values will remain the same.

So, the answer would be equal to

= $1,080,000 + $750,000 + $870,000 + $690,000 - $900,000

= $2,490,000

Hence, Concord Corporation's cost of goods manufactured for the year is  $2,490,000
