Answer:

Zach´s strategy is better

Explanation:

To find the final capital, we use the compound interest formula:

Final Capital (FC)= Initial Capital (IC)*[(1+interest(i))]^(number of periods(n))

Yolanda:

She knows the APR (annual percentage rate) but she deposits each month, so we need to convert this rate in a montly rate. To do so, we use this formula:

Monthly rate= ((1+annual rate)^(1/# perdiods))-1

Montly rate= (1+6%)^(1/12)= 1,00486-1= 0,00486= 0,48%

Then, we apply the compound interest formula (84 periods because theare 84 months in 7 years):

FC= $300*(1+0,48%)^(84)= $451,09

Zach

We only need to apply the compound interest formula because he deposits each year and the rate is annual ( in this case the number of periods is ni year).

FC= $3600*(1+6%)^(7)=$4510,81

Weighted average.

None of these answer choices is correct.

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

First-in, first-out (FIFO) is an inventory method under which the oldest inventory items are recorded in the account as being issued or sold first.

A periodic inventory system refers to an inventory valuation method under which there is an update to the inventory account at the end of an accounting period instead of after every sale and purchase of inventory items.

A perpetual inventory system to an inventory valuation method under which there is an update to the inventory account after every sale and purchase of inventory items. This is done by using computer softwares such as computerized point-of-sale systems and enterprise asset management software.

When FIFO inventory method is being used, both the periodic inventory system and perpetual inventory system will always produce the same amount for cost of goods sold.

Based this explanation, the correct option for this question is FIFO.

The CJP Company produces 10,000 units of item S10 annually at a total cost of $190,000. Direct materials $ 20,000 Direct labor 5
Serggg [28]

Answer:

$17.5

Explanation:

Direct Labour-          55000

Variable Overhead- 45000

Fixed overhead-       70000

Direct material-         20000

Total =                      $190,000

Total relevant cost of manufacturing = Direct material + Direct labour + Variable overhead + Avoidable Fixed cost + Opportunity cost

Where Avoidable fixed cost = 10,000 units * 4 = 40.000

0pportunity cost= $15,000

Total relevant cost of manufacturing = 25000 + 55000 + 45000 + 40000 + 15000 = $175,000

Now, Price that CJP would be indifferent to XYZ Offer can be derived by: Total Relevant Cost of Manufacturing / No of unit product

= $175,000 / 10,000 units

=$17.5
