Answer:

A) $200,000

Explanation:

In this case, Haft has a wide range of possible losses, between $200,000 to $300,000. Since no amount is more probable than others, then the company can decide to report the lowest estimate as long as all the other estimates have the same probability of happening. But if another estimate was probable, e.g. $220,000, then that estimate should be recorded even if it was higher.

amid [387]

Answer:

$300,000

Explanation:

Although the property dividend was distributed on January 15, year 6. the <u>amount that will be used is the value of the shares as at the declaration date and not the distribution date </u>

The cost method that will yield an ending inventory value that is somewhere between possible high and low costs (prices) using t
o-na [289]

The weighted average cost of capital is the cost approach that will produce an ending inventory value that is in between probable high and low costs (prices) using classic costing methods.

The weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of attracting investors, whether bonds or shareholders.

The computation weights the cost of capital depending on the amount of debt and equity used by the firm, providing a clear barrier rate for internal initiatives or future acquisitions.

The weighted average inventory cost is one of the approaches used in inventory valuation. It is computed by dividing the cost of products for sale by the number of units for sale. i.e The cost of the items for sale and the quantity of units for sale. Because it is based on averages, the ending inventory value is generally somewhere between high and low cost.

July 1     Beginning Inventory  37             $18             $666

July 7    Purchases                 129            $19             2,451

July 7    Purchases                 101              $19             1,919

Total cost of goods sold =                                       $2,585

Ending inventory = $892 (18 * $20 +  28 * $19)
