masha68 [24]

Answer:

(a) Cost of inventory sold using FIFO method = $179,280

(b) Cost of inventory sold using LIFO method = $188,700

(c) Cost of inventory sold using weighted average cost method = $186,000

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question.

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

Units of inventory sold = Units available for sale - Ending physical inventory units = 45 – 14 = 31

(a) first-in, first-out (FIFO) method

Under FIFO, inventory purchased first is sold first. Therefore, we have:

Cost of inventory sold using FIFO = 12 units at $5,400 each from Jan. 1 + 18 units at $6,000 each from Aug. 7 Purchase + 1 unit at $6,480 from Dec. 11 Purchase = (12 * $5,400) + (18 * $6,000) + (1 * $6,480) = $64,800 + $108,000 + $6,480 = $179,280

(b) last-in, first-out (LIFO) method

Under LIFO, inventory purchased last is sold first. Therefore, we have:

Cost of inventory sold using LIFO = 15 unit at $6,480 each from Dec. 11 Purchase + 16 units at $6,000 each from Aug. 7 Purchase = (15 * $6,480) + (16 * $6,000) = $97,200 + $96,000 = $188,700

(c) weighted average cost method (round per-unit cost to two decimal places and your final answer to the nearest whole dollar).

Under the weighted average cost method, the cost of goods available for sale is divided by the number of units available for sale to obtain average cost per unit. This is then used to multiply the total units sold to obtain the cost of inventory sold as follows:

Weighted average cost per unit = Cost of goods available for sale / Units available for sale = $270,000 / 45 = $6,000

Cost of inventory sold using weighted average cost method = Units of inventory sold * Weighted average cost per unit = 31 * $6,000 = $186,000

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

1) deferred tax asset = 4000

2) deffered tax Liability = 4000

Explanation:

1) Journalizing entry at 12/31/2017

deferred tax asset = tax ( per income tax) - tax ( per book tax )

= 32000 - 28000 = 4000

Journal Entry made for Income tax and deferred tax asset)

Account Debit Credit

Income Tax Expense 28000

Deffered Tax Asset 4000

Income Tax Payable 32000

2) Journalizing entry at 12/31/2018

Deffered tax Liability = Tax (per book) - Tax ( Income tax )

deffered tax Liability = 32000 - 28000 = 4000

Journal Entry made for Income tax and deffered tax liability

Suppose that the market demand curve for bean sprouts is given by P = 1,660 - 4Q, where P is the price and Q is total industry o

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

In equilibrium, total output by the two firms will be option e= 300.

Q = $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$

Q = 100 + 200

Q = 300

Explanation:

Data Given:

Market Demand Curve = P = 1660-4Q

where, P = price and Q = total industry output

Each firm's marginal cost = $60 per unit of output

So, we know that Q = $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$

where $q_{}$ being the individual firm output.

Solution:

P = 1660-4Q

P = 1660- 4( $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$ )

P = 1660 - 4 $q_{1}$ - 4 $q_{2}$

Including the marginal cost of firm 1 and multiplying the whole equation by $q_{1}$

Let's suppose new equation is X

X = 1660 $q_{1}$ - 4 $q_{1} ^{2}$ - 4 $q_{1}$ $q_{2}$ - 60 $q_{1}$

Taking the derivative w.r.t to $q_{1}$ , we will get:

$X^{'}$ = 1660 - 8 $q_{1}$ - 4 $q_{2}$ - 60 = 0

Making rearrangements into the equation:

8 $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$ = 1660 - 60

8 $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$ = 1600

Dividing the whole equation by 4

2 $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$ = 400

Solving for $q_{1}$

2 $q_{1}$ = 400 - $q_{2}$

$q_{1}$ = 200 - 0.5 $q_{2}$

Including the marginal cost of firm 1 and multiplying the whole equation by $q_{2}$

P = 1660 - 4 $q_{1}$ - 4 $q_{2}$

Let's suppose new equation is Y

Y = 1660 $q_{2}$ - 4 $q_{1}$ $q_{2}$ -4 $q_{2} ^{2}$ - 60 $q_{2}$

Pugging in the value of $q_{1}$

Y = 1660 $q_{2}$ - 4 $q_{2}$ (200 - 0.5 $q_{2}$ ) -4 $q_{2} ^{2}$ - 60 $q_{2}$

Y = 1660 $q_{2}$ - 800 $q_{2}$ +2 $q_{2} ^{2}$ -4 $q_{2} ^{2}$ - 60 $q_{2}$

Y = 1600 $q_{2}$ - 800 $q_{2}$ -2 $q_{2} ^{2}$

Taking the derivative w.r.t $q_{2}$

$Y^{'}$ = 1600 - 800 - 4 $q_{2}$ = 0

Solving for $q_{2}$

4 $q_{2}$ = 800

$q_{2}$ = 200

$q_{1}$ = 200 - 0.5 $q_{2}$

Plugging in the value of $q_{2}$ to get the value of $q_{1}$

$q_{1}$ = 200 - 0.5 (200)

$q_{1}$ = 200 - 100

$q_{1}$ = 100

Q = $q_{1}$ + $q_{2}$

Q = 100 + 200

Q = 300

Hence, in equilibrium, total output by the two firms will be option

e= 300.
