Answer:

The value assigned to ending inventory if Niles uses "weighted average" is $320 ( to 160 units @ $2 )

Explanation:                  Number of units    Price per unit    Total

Purchases on March 1 =         110                     $1.10               $1,21

Purchases March 7      =         210                    $2.10              $441

Purchases March 16    =         110                     $2.70              $297  

Inventory on March 31 =        160                    $2.00             $320

Weighted Average Inventory value = Accumulated Value / Total Number of units

Weighted Average Inventory value = ( 121 + 441 + 297 ) / ( 110 + 210 + 110 )

Weighted Average Inventory value = 1.997674419 = $2.00

When using straight-line depreciation to compute depreciation for a partial​ year:
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

B.

compute depreciation for a full year under straight minusline depreciation and multiply it by the fraction of the year that you held the asset.

Explanation:

Under straight-line depreciation, the asset value is spread equally throughout its useful life.

To get the depreciation of a partial year, you need to calculate the depreciation a full year first.

Divide the asset value by the number of its useful years to get depreciation value for one year.  To compute partial depreciation, you need to establish the fraction of the year to be depreciated. Divide the number of months by twelve to get the fraction.

To get actual depreciation, multiply this fraction by a full year depreciation.

What criteria do accountants use to decide whether to use present or future values in accounting statements?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Present value is nothing but how much future sum of money worth today. It is one of the important concepts in finance and it is a basis for stock pricing, bond pricing, financial modeling, banking, and insurance, etc. Present value provides us with an estimated amount to be spent today to have an investment worth a certain amount of money at a specific point in the future. Present value is also called a discounted value. It is an indicator for investors that whatever money he will receive today can earn a return in the future. With the help of present value, method investors calculate the present value of a firm’s expected cash flow to decide if a stock is worth to invest today or not.

The formula for calculating PV is shown below

PV = CF/ (1+r)n

Here ‘CF’ is future cash flow, ‘r’ is a discounted rate of return and ‘n’ is the number of periods or year.

Example

Let’s say that you have been promised by someone that he will give you 10,000.00 Rs 5 year from today and interest rate is 8% so no we want to know what the present value of 10,000.00 Rs which you will receive in future so,

PV = 10,000/ (1+0.08)5

PV = 6805.83 (To the nearest Decimal)

So present-day value of Rs 10,000.00 is Rs 6805.83
