Answer:

The major advantage of multiple step income statement is that it breaks down the operating revenues and the costs incurred in the business.

It shows separated Gross profit which can be calculated as: Sales - COGS.

Apart from that, it shows separate Operating Income: Gross Profit - Operating expenses.

Lastly, it shows Net income: Operating income + non operating income.

Hence, concluded that, multiple step income statement offers a greater and detailed picture as compared to single step income statement.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck buddy.

Answer:

It clearly states the gross profit of a firm

Explanation:

Income statement can be defined as the earnings report or a profit and loss statement during a specific period of time. It is the summary of the fiscal operation of a firm during a time frame. The period of time could be quarterly or annually.

We have multiple step income statement produced by companies with specific business structure and single step income statement are produced by other companies.

Multiple step income statement has an advantage of helping firms to clearly state their gross profit.

Gross profit= Sales revenue - Cost of goods

It also gives insight to operating profit of a firm.

Operating Profit= Gross profit - operating expenses

Multiple step income statement helps to state all sources of income and expenditure of a firm.

If the elasticity of demand for Good A is −3, a 33 percent decrease in quantity demanded of Good A results from a(n) ________ in
velikii [3]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Elasticity of demand for Good A = −3

Percentage decrease in quantity demanded for Good A = 33%

Elasticity of demand for Good A = Percentage change in quantity demanded for Good A ÷ Percentage change in price of Good A

-3 = - 33 ÷ Percentage change in price of Good A

Percentage change in price of Good A = (-33) ÷ (-3)

                                                                 = 11%

Therefore, percentage increase in price of good A is 11%.

Crystal Apple Sales Company began 2014 with cash of $2,000, inventory of $3,600 (200 crystal apples that cost $18 each), $2,500
Andru [333]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold = (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × (2,040-200-800)

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $24,960

= $44,560

Ending Inventory Under FIFO = (1,200 - 1,040) × (2,040-200-800)

= 160 × $24

= $3,840

Under LIFO method

Cost of goods sold is

= (1,200 × $24) + (800 × $20) + (40 × $18)

= $28,800 + $16,000 + $720

= $45,520

Ending Inventory Under LIFO is

= (200 - 40) × $18

= 160 × $18

= $2,880

Weighted Average cost flow Assumption

Weighted Average cost per apple = Cost of Beginning inventory and purchase ÷ Total apple available

Cost of Beginning inventory and purchases is

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,200 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $28,800

= $48,400

Total apples available is

= 200 + 800 + 1,200

= 2,200  

Weighted Average cost per apple is

= $48,400 ÷ 2,200

= $22

Cost of goods sold is  

= 2,040 × $22

= $44,880

Ending Inventory is

= 160 × $22

= $3,520

b. The Preparation of income statement, a balance sheet, and a statement of cash flows under each of the three cost flow assumptions is prepared below:-

Income Statement                       Amount

Sales (2,040 × $40)                     $81,600

Less: Cost of goods sold            ($44,560)

Income before income taxes      $11,040
