Answer:

Japan and China are the largest foreign holders of US debt. By January 2018, China held $1.17 trillion of US debt, which is a lot of money. But it has decreased to $1.1 trillion by January 2020 (still is a lot of money).

Current American national debt is approximately $23.4 trillion, so China's share is almost 5%. Currently only Japan owns more national debt than China, with $1.17 trillion approximately.

What both countries have in common is that the US has a trade deficit with them. Logically we can assume that countries that have high trade surpluses with the US, will also have large amounts of US securities. Both China and Japan benefit from trading with the US and instead of taking money, they take home US securities. The financial outflow to those countries is larger than the financial inflow from those countries.

Answer:

The Chinese government holds $200 of U.S. bonds.

Explanation:

LThe Chinese government holds $200 of U.S. bonds. This is so because of payments must the same to each other and since the U.S spent a total of $2,100 and the Chinese as we can see also spent a total of $1,900 with the bonds not been included, getting the difference between them American and Chinese bond ($2,100-$1,900) which is $200.Financial Account for U.S =$200 and the Financial Account for Japan=$800 For the U.S., it is more money coming in than out so it has a $600 Financial account Surplus. China has a $600 outflow or money going out, for this reason China will be the one having a deficit in its financial account.

Langley Clinics, Inc buys $400,000 in medical supplies each year (at gross prices) from its major suppliers, consolidated servic
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

a) Langley buys $400,000 (gross) in medical supplies a year from Consolidated. The net purchases (the true cost of the supplies) is only 0.975 x $400,000 = $390,000 because they can be bought at a 2.5 percent discount when payment is made within 10 days. On a daily basis, Langley purchases $390,000 / 360 = $1,083.33. If Langley takes the free credit and pays on Day 10, its payables from Consolidated would total 10 x $1,083.33 = $10,833.33, which is the amount of free credit.

b. If Langley pays after 45 days, its accounts payable will increase to 45 x $1,083.33 = $48,750. Thus, the amount of costly trade credit is Total trade credit – Free trade credit = $48,750 – $10,833.33 = $37,916.67.

c. Langley is foregoing a 2.5 percent discount on its $400,000 of purchases, so the dollar cost of the additional (costly) trade credit is 0.025 x $400,000 = $10,000. Dividing this dollar cost by the amount of additional credit provides the approximate percentage cost of the costly trade credit:

$10,000

Approximate percentage cost = ──────── = 0.264 = 26.4%.

$37,916.67

Of course, the approximate cost could have been found by applying the following formula:

Discount percent 360

Approximate % cost = ────────────── = ────────────────────────

100 - Discount percent Days credit received - Discount period

2.5 360

= ─── = ─── = 0.264 = 26.4%.

97.5 35

d. If Langley can obtain a bank loan for less than 26.4 percent cost, including interest cost and fees, it should replace the costly credit ($37,916.67) with a bank loan.

e. As indicated in Part d, only the costly trade credit should be replaced. Langley should always take the $10,033.33 of free trade credit.

Maxim Corp. has provided the following information about one of its products: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1
artcher [175]

Answer:

$48,000

Explanation:

The computation of ending inventory using average method is shown below

Total units = 200 + 400 + 100 = 700

Total cost = (200 × $140) + (400 × $160) + (100 × $200)

= $28,000 + $64,000 + $20,000

= $112,000

Average cost per unit = $112,000/700 = $160

Ending inventory = Total units - units sold

= 700 - 400

= 300

Therefore, cost of ending inventory = Ending inventory × Average cost per unit

= 300 units × $160

= $48,000
