How do private labels threaten band names

Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

Also note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of cost of sales using FIFO, LIFO and Weighted Average methods (in red color).

First In First Out (FIFO) refers to the inventory method whereby the inventory items purchased first are sold first.

Last In First Out (LIFO) refers to the inventory method whereby the inventory items purchased last are sold first.

Weighted average cost method refers an inventory costing technique whereby the average cost per unit is calculated by dividing the total cost of the goods available for sale by the total number of units available for sales.

From the question, we can obtained:

Total Tons (000s) Sold = May Sales + November Sales = 5 + 3 = 8

From the attached excel file, we have:

Weighted average unit cost = Total Cost ($'000s) / Total Tons (000s) Available for Sales = 5,970 / 11 = $542.73

Cost of sales under weighted average = Total Tons (000s) Sold * Weighted average unit cost = 8 * $542.73 = $4,342

Therefore, from the attached excel file and the calculations above, the correct option is B. $4,342 using weighted average.

For each of the following cases, state whether the statement is true for LIFO or for FIFO. Assume that prices are rising. (a) se

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

LIFO : results in a higher quality of earnings ratio.
FIFO : in higher phantom profits.
FIFO : results in higher net income.
LIFO : results in lower taxes.
FIFO : results in lower net cash provided by operating activities.

Explanation:

FIFO states that first goods brought are the first to be sold and the inventory consists of the most recent purchases and LIFO assumes that the last goods are purchased and first sold.

Thus LIFO results in a higher earning ratio and in a lowering of the taxes and FIFO at higher net incomes and lowers the net cash provided for the operating activities.
