Answer:

worker is protected by a cost-of-living adjustment clause in an employment contract

Explanation:

Cost of Living Adjustment(COLA) is an increase made to income from social security to counter the inflationary effects. The COLA change is essentially equivalent to the Consumer Price Index ( CPI) percentage increase over a given period.

All other options are wrong as it is not fit to the current situation

hence, the correct option is B.

Today, you sold 540 shares of stock and realized a total return of 6.3 percent. You purchased the shares one year ago at a price
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

B. 5.40 percent

Explanation:

Let today's price per share be $X

Total return = [ (New value + Dividend - Old value) / Old price ] *100

Old value = $24 *540 = $12,960

Next, plug in the numbers to the formula;

0.063 = [ (540X + 117  - 12,960)/ 12,960 ]

0.063 = [\frac{540X-12,843}{12,960} ]

multiply both sides by 12,960;

0.063 *12,960 = 540X - 12,843

816.48 = 540X - 12,843

Add 12,843 from both sides and solve for X;

816.48 + 12,843 = 540X

13,659.48 = 540X

Divide both sides by 540;

13,659.48/ 540 = X

X = 25.295

Therefore, today's price per share = $25.30

Capital gains yield= (Today's price - Original price) /Original price

Capital gains yield = (25.295 -24) / 24

=0.05396 or 5.40%

Therefore, Capital gains yield is 5.40%

Richards Corporation uses the FIFO method of process costing. The following information is available for October in its Fabricat
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit Materials =  $ 2.82

Cost per equivalent unit Conversion =  $2.65

Explanation:

Richards Corporation

1) We first calculate the fifo equivalent units .

FIFO Equivalent units can be calculated by the following.

Particulars          Units        % of Completion             Equivalent Units

                                              Mat. Con. Costs       Materials C. Costs

Transferred out, 366,000        100       100             366,000   366,000

Ending inventory, 39,000         30         15              11700         5850

Total Weighted Equivalent Units                           377,700     371,850

Less

<u> Beginning Inventory: 98,000, 80%  20%             78,400        18000</u>

<u>FIFO Equivalent Units                                          299,300       353,850 </u>  

2) We calculate the total costs

                                                   Direct Materials  Conversion

Costs in beginning Work in Process -$55,200       $97,700

<u>Costs incurred in October -                 $844,050      $937,300. </u>

Total Cost                                           $ 899250         1035,000  

<u />

<u>3) In FIFO The cost per unit is  based only on the current costs and current period unit productions.</u>

Materials = $844050/299300= $2.82

Conversion = 937,300  / 353,850   = 2.6488= $2.65
