Answer:

The correct answer is option (b) $1,100

Explanation:

Data Given:

First purchase  and the units = $2.75 at 600 units

Second purchase and the unit = $3.25 at 700 Units

Quantity sold = 900 units

Ending inventory cost = ?

Total purchase  = 600 + 700

                           = 1300 units

Ending inventory unit = total purchase - quantity sold

                                    = 1300 - 900

                                     = 400 units

Ending inventory at $2.75 cost = 400 units * 2.75

                                                    =$1,100

Answer:

B. $1,100.

Explanation:

The LIFO inventory method Means Last in First Out is an assumption for cost of goods allocation purposes and assumes that the newly purchased goods in a company are first sold out.

Calculating the cost of goods sold

600 *2.75 =$1 650

700*3.25 =$2 275

900 units were sold so under LIFO assumption most recent goods are sold out first so all 700 of goods purchased last get sold and 200 of the inventory purchased earlier get sold

600-200 = 400

So the ending inventory is 400 at 2.75 dollar cost

=$1100

So the answer is B

Assume both Atlantis and Zanadu produce helmets and baseballs. Using equal amounts of resources, Atlantis can produce 100 helmet
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a) see attached image

b) Atlantis's opportunity cost of producing one helmet = 200 / 100 = 2 baseballs

c and d) Atlantis's opportunity cost of producing one baseball = 100 / 200 = 0.5 helmets

Zanadu's opportunity cost of producing one baseball = 100 / 400 = 0.25 helmets ⇒ Zanadu has a comparative and absolute advantage in the production of baseballs

e) yes, Atlantis would produce 100 helmets, and if it trades 50 to Zanadu, it will get 150 baseballs in return. So it will gain from trade. If Zanadu produces 400 baseballs and trades 150 of them for 50 helmets, it will also benefit.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

a) Is Santhosh required to increase his withholding or make estimated tax payments this year to avoid the underpayment penalty?

  • No he is not required to make any payments or increase his withholdings because this year's withholdings already represent a 133% increase with respect to last year's tax liability. If the withholdings for the current are over 100% last year's tax liability, then the taxpayer doesn't need to make any further adjustments in order to avoid underpayment penalties.

b) By how much, if any, must Santhosh increase his withholding and/or estimated tax payments for the year to avoid underpayment penalties?

Darya [45]

Answer:

The answer is: D) raise the price, reduce the quantity, increase total revenues, and increase crime.

Explanation:

According to the law of supply and demand, when the supply of any given product is artificially lowered, the supply curve will shift:

  • this will cause the price of that product to increase  
  • the profit margin of the suppliers will increase, increasing total revenue
  • since illegal drugs would increase in crime, we can expect an increase in the crime rate on drug related crimes (e.g. addicts robbing).
