Answer:

First Offer  

Present value = $60,000

Second Offer  

PV = Down payment + A<u>(1 -(1 + r/m)</u>-nm

                                                 r/m

PV = $10,000 + $6,000(<u>1- (1+ 0.06/2</u>))-5x2

                                                0.06/2

PV = $10,000 + $6,000(<u>1 - (1 + 0.03</u>))-10

                                                 0.03

PV = $10,000 + 6,000<u>(1 - (1.03)</u>)-10

                                             0.03

PV = $10,000 + 6,000(8.5302)

PV = $61,181

The difference between the two present values

= $61,181 - $60,000

= $1,181

Explanation:

The present value of the cash payment is $60,000. The present value of the second offer is the down payment plus the present value of semi-annual payments. We need to use the present value of annuity formula so as to determine the present value of semi-annual payments. Then. we will deduct the present value of the first offer from the present value of the second offer in order to obtain difference in present values.

Why Do Organizations not change in response to environmental pressures?​
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

It often proves difficult to actually realize the change that you have come up with. Especially when it comes to cultural or behavioral change. We want to show that change is not so much something that you have to get others to join. You have to make your change part of it

The Shirt Shop had the following transactions for T-shirts for Year 1, its first year of operations: Jan. 20 Purchased 400 units
viva [34]

Answer:

WA      1,682

LIFO      910

FIFO  2,260

Explanation:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}Date&Cost&Units&Subtotal\\$Jan 20th&8&400&3200\\$April 21th&10&200&2000\\$July 25th&13&280&3640\\$Sept 19th&15&90&1350\\$Total&10.51&970&10190\\\end{array}\right]

We add the units purchase and the subtotal to get the total units available for sale.

Ending inventory physical units: 970 - 810 = 160 units

<u>Then, we calculate for each method:</u>

Weighted average:

cost of goods / available units = 10,190 / 970 =  10.51

160 units x 10.51 = 1,681.6‬

LIFO:

Ending inventory will be the oldest units:

160 units x 8 = 960

FIFO:

Ending inventory will be the newest units as the units are sold as soon as they come in

90 x 15 =  1,350

70 x 13 =     910

Total       2,260
