Answer:

2015 inventory turnover is 4.5

2016 inventory turnover is 6.1

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is computed by dividing Cost of goods sold over average inventory.

First step: Compute the Average inventory for the period. Average inventory is simply Beginning inventory plus Ending inventory divided by 2.

2015:

($900,000 + $860,000) / 2 = $880,000

2016:

($860,000 + $640,000) / 2 = $750,000

Finally, we can now compute the inventory turnover by dividing Cost of Goods Sold over Average inventory.

2015:

$4,000,000 / $880,000 = 4.5

2016:

$4,600,000 / $750,000 = 6.1

How does a market surplus affect prices and consumer demand for a product?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer

<u>Market surplus will lower the prices for goods and increase the consumer quantity demand for the products.</u>

Explanation

A market surplus is when there is excess supply. The quantity supply in this case is greater than the quantity demanded. Producers will be faced with a hard time to sell all their goods. This will make them lower their prices to make their products more appealing to consumers. Firms will also have to lower market prices in order to stay competitive. In response to the reduced prices, consumers will increase the quantity demanded thus moving the market to an equilibrium price and quantity. This is a case where excess supply has exerted a downward pressure on the prices of the products.

Tom sells his father's watch for $100 to sue. he later finds out from his father that the watch was an expensive rolex. tom want
Daniel [21]

The court would rule in sue's favor because courts seldom inquire into the adequacy of consideration.

In contracts, <em>consideration </em>just means the <em>exchange of things of value</em>. There has to be an exchange of things of value for there to be an enforceable contract, and in this case a watch was exchanged for money. It is rare for courts to rule on how much consideration is expected because people are generally free to set their own prices and not sell if the price is too low. That is not for a court to decide (in most cases).

Goryan [66]

Solution:

S1  $180,000 is allocated 70% to S2 or $126,000 ( 0.7 * 180,000 )

S2  total is $162,000 + $126,000 = $288,000

S2  $126,000 is allocated 19.7% to P2 or $81000

Under the step-method of cost allocation,

the amount of costs allocated from $2 to P2 would be $81000

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1) $0.27 per loaf of bread

2) $0.28 per loaf of bread

3) 3.7%

Explanation:

current production = 1,800 loaves per month

current labor expense = $8 per hour

constant utility cost = $800

ingredients per loaf = $0.40

multi-factor productivity = total output / (labor + materials + overhead)

current multi-factor productivity = 1,800 loaves / ($5,120 + $800 + $720) = $0.27 per loaf of bread

new output level = 1,800 x 1.35 = 2,430 loaves

new multi-factor productivity = 2,430 loaves / ($6,912 + $800 + $972) = $0.28 per loaf of bread

% increase = ($0.28 - $0.27) / $0.27 = 3.7%
