Answer:

a. Cost of Goods Sold under FIFO method - $ 29.800

   Ending inventory under FIFO method -     $ 28,400

b. Cost of Goods Sold under average cost method - $ 33,950

   Ending inventory under average cost method -     $ 24,250

Explanation:

                                                              Units     Unit Cost              Cost

Beginning Inventory                           1,000          $10               $10,000

Purchase #1                                          1,800         $ 11               $ 19,800

Purchase #2                                           800         $ 13              $ 10,400

Purchase #3                                         <u>1,200</u>         $ 15              <u>$ 18,000</u>          

Total available                                    4,800                            $ 58,200      

Units sold                                            ( 2,800)

Ending Inventory                                   2,000

Computations under FIFO method

In the FIFO method of cost flows, the cost of goods sold are considered from the opening inventory and the earlier purchases. The ending inventory is from the later purchases.

Cost of goods sold

Units sold                                            2,800

Opening inventory                             1,000 units @ $ 10          $ 10,000

Purchase # 1                                        1,800 units @ $ 11           <u>$ 19,800</u>

Total cost of Goods sold                                                           $ 29,800          

Ending Inventory

Units on hand                                      2,000

Purchase #2                                           800         $ 13              $ 10,400

Purchase #3                                         <u>1,200</u>         $ 15              <u>$ 18,000</u>          

Ending Inventory                                                                         $ 28,400

Computations under Average Cost method

Under average cost method, the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory is valued at the average cost of the goods available for sale divided by the number of units.

The average cost is calculated by dividing the total cost by the available units

Total Cost                                                       $ 58,200

Units available                                                     4,800

Average cost per unit                                    $      12.13    

Cost of goods sold = Units sold * Average cost = 2,800 * $ 12.13 =  $ 33,950

Ending Inventory- Units in hand * Average Cost = 2,000 * $ 12.13=  $ 24,250

Answer:

(a) The cost of goods sold is $29, 800

The cost of closing inventory is $28, 400

(b) Cost of goods sold = $11 x 2, 800

     = $30 ,800

Cost of closing inventory = 2, 000 x $11

    = $22, 000

Explanation:

Below is a table of the data provided in the question

                  Units           Unit Cost ($)            Cost ($)

Beginning   1, 000               10                     10, 000

Purchase #1   1, 800               11                     19, 800

Purchase #2    800               13                     10, 400

Purchase #3   1, 200               15                     18, 000

<u>(a) First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method: </u>

FIFO method is a method used for the calculation of the cost of goods sold. This method assumes that the oldest products in a company’s inventory are sold first. The cost paid for the oldest inventory is the one used to calculate the cost of goods sold.

<u>How to calculate the cost of goods sold: </u>

• determine the cost of your oldest goods sold

• multiply that amount by the number of units sold

Answer: (a)

Units sold 2, 800 Unit cost Cost  

Opening inventory 1, 000 $10 $10, 000  

Purchase #1 1, 800 $11 $19, 800  

2, 800  $29, 800  

The cost of goods sold is $29, 800

<u>Closing inventory: </u>

Purchase #2          800      13       10, 400

Purchase #3         1, 200      15      <u> 18, 000 </u>

<u>T</u>otal                                         <u>28, 400 </u>

The cost of closing inventory is $28, 400

<u>(b) Average Cost Method: </u>

The average cost assigns a cost to inventory based on the total cost of goods purchased in a period divided by the total number of units purchased. This method is also known as the weighted average cost method.

<u>How to calculate the cost of goods sold: </u>

• find the average cost (divide the cost of all goods purchased, including opening inventory, by the number of goods on hand.

• Multiply that amount by the number of units sold

Average cost calculation:

               Units           Unit Cost ($)            Cost ($)

Beginning 1, 000                  10                  10, 000

Purchase #1 1, 800                  11                  19, 800

Purchase #2 800                          13                  10, 400

Purchase #3 <u>1, 200</u>                  15                   <u>8, 000 </u>

Total        <u> 4, 800</u>                                   <u>52, 800 </u>

Average cost = $52, 800 / 4, 800

= $11

Therefore,  

Cost of goods sold = $11 x 2, 800

     = $30 ,800

Closing inventory units = 4, 800 – 2, 800

     = 2, 000 units

Cost of closing inventory = 2, 000 x $11

    = $22, 000

Explanation:

unit material cost: 5.00 dollar

ending work in proces inventory

materials equivalent units:

1,500 x 100% = 1,500

as the mateirals are added entire at the beginning of the process:

material cost: 1,500 x 5 = 7,500

conversion

1,500 x 20% = 300

300 x 3.00 = 900

total value of ending WIP inventory:

materials 7,500

conversion 900

Manual Company sells goods to Nolan Company during 2017. It offers Nolan the following rebates based on total sales to Nolan. If
diamong [38]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, we should note that while using the gross method, the revenue gotten from sales will be calculated by subtracting the rebate of 2% from the full invoice amount of $110,000. This will be:

= $110,000 - (2% × $110,000)

= $110,000 - (0.02 × $110,000)

= $110,000 - $2200

= $107800

Using the net method, the revenue gotten from sales will be calculated by subtracting the rebate of 6% from the full invoice amount of $110,000. This will be:

= $110,000 - (6% × $110,000)

= $110,000 - (0.06 × $110,000)

= $110,000 - $6600

= $103400

A stability strategy is a grand strategy that involves little or no significant organizational change. For example, Love Forever
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

A stability strategy seeks to remain as long as possible in the maturity phase (or stability) of the company, reaping the fruits of the investments made. A survival strategy seeks to survive in a hostile environment, while retaining its market share.

In general, stability and survival strategies are defensive strategies, that is, strategies that seek to maintain the competitive position achieved by the company. This fact does not mean that the company cannot grow; in fact, on many occasions, to maintain market share growth is necessary (sustainable growth). In other cases, these strategies involve a decrease (organizational downsizing, outsourcing or outsourcing of activities).

These strategies are designed for the level of corporate strategy, although they can also be adopted for competitive or business strategies, as they allow the analysis for each business or activity to which the company is engaged.
