Answer: $75

Explanation: Using the lower of cost or market approach, the cost of item in the inventory will be valued at $75.This is because the replacement cost is the assigned to the market value of the item in inventory. The lower of cart or market approach will first compare the cost of item purchased in inventory to the actual market value to the inventory. However, replacement cost in this case, cannot exceed net realizable value (ceiling) which in this case is $82.50 and cannot be lower than the difference between the net realizable value and the normal profit margin called the ( floor)

Answer:

The inventory would be valued at $75 each

Explanation:

From  a market approach to valuation,we need to first of all compare the replacement cost and net realizable in order to pick the lower of both values,hence the replacement cost of $75 is lower than net realizable value of $82.50.

As a result, we can then compare the lower of replacement cost and initial cost,such that inventory can then be valued at the lower of both.

From the foregoing analysis,the replacement of $75 each per item is lower than the initial cost $76.50,invariably our inventory is valued at $75 each.

c. The cost of inventorying a single item is $0.95 per item.

d. The cost of inventorying a single item is $1.08 per item.

e. You should assign two workers per computer in order to minimize the cost of inventory per single item.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. A complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Imagine you have some workers and some handheld computers that you can use to take inventory at a warehouse. There are diminishing returns to taking inventory. If one worker uses one computer, he can inventory 125 items per hour. Two workers sharing a computer can together inventory 175 items per hour. Three workers sharing a computer can together inventory 185 items per hour. And four or more workers sharing a computer can together inventory fewer than 185 items per hour. Computers cost $100 each and you must pay each worker $25 per hour.

a. If you assign one worker per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $ _____ per item

b. If you assign two workers per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $ _____ per item

c. If you assign three workers per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $_____ per item

d. If you assign four workers per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $_____ per item.

e. How many workers per computer should you assign if you wish to minimize the cost of inventory per single item? _____ worker(s) per computer

The explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

Note: See the attached excel file for all the calculations.

a. If you assign one worker per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $ _____ per item

The cost of inventorying a single item is <u>$1.00 per item.</u>

b. If you assign two workers per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $ _____ per item

The cost of inventorying a single item is <u>$0.86 per item.</u>

c. If you assign three workers per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $_____ per item

The cost of inventorying a single item is <u>$0.95 per item.</u>

d. If you assign four workers per computer, what is the cost of inventorying a single item? Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. $_____ per item.

The cost of inventorying a single item is <u>$1.08 per item.</u>

e. How many workers per computer should you assign if you wish to minimize the cost of inventory per single item? _____ worker(s) per computer

To minimize the cost of inventory per single item, you should assign the number of workers at a point where the cost inventorying a single item is the lowest.

From from parts a to d above, the <u>lowest cost of $0.86 per item </u>of inventorying a single item is obtained in part b when you assign two workers per computer.

Therefore, you should assign two workers per computer in order to minimize the cost of inventory per single item.
