Answer:

D

Explanation:

Nantell's operating income (EBIT) will increase., because now the company will record lower depreciation expense in the income statement due to increase in the life from 5 to 7 taken for the depreciation purposes. So decline in depreciation will result in higher EBIT.

a. is wrong as lower depreciation means higher net income.

b. is wrong as tax liability will not get impacted as tax will follows old method of depreciation.

c. is incorrect as depreciation is non cash expense thus does not impact cash position and tax has already be on the earlier method.

e. is incorrect as increase in EBIT will result in higher taxable income.

hence option D is the only correct option

g If the beginning work in process includes 200 units that are 20% complete with respect to conversion and 30% complete with res
Temka [501]

Answer:

1,140 units

Explanation:

Note : The question requires us to use the weighted-average method. This method focuses on equivalent units of completed units and units still in process only.

Step 1 : Determine units completed and transferred

Units Completed = Beginning units + Units Started - Ending units

                              = 200 + 1,000 - 100

                              = 1,100 units

Step 2 : Calculate equivalent units of production with respect to conversion costs

Completed and transferred (1,100 x 100%)         1,100

Ending units (100 x 40%)                                         40

Total equivalent units of conversion costs         1,140

thus,

the equivalent units of productions for the period (using the weighted-average method) for conversion is 1,140 units.

To arrive at operating cash flows, you should start with _______, _______ non-cash items and then adding or subtracting changes
Aleks04 [339]

To arrive at operating cash flows, you should start with net income, adding non-cash items and then add or subtract changes in working capital.

A measure of the amount of money made by a company's regular business operations is called operating cash flow (OCF). Operating cash flow shows if a business can produce enough positive cash flow to support and expand its operations; if not, it may need outside finance for capital growth.

An essential metric for assessing the financial performance of a company's main business operations is operating cash flow.

A cash flow statement's opening part, which also contains cash from investing and financing activities, shows operating cash flow.

The indirect method and the direct approach are both ways to show operating cash flow on a cash flow statement.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:B - $80

Explanation: Producer surplus is the difference btw what a consumer is paying and what a producer is charging.

From the above questions, Tom tuned the following pianos:

Buyer willing to pay $155.

Tom tuned piano 1 for $120, therefore his surplus on piano 1 is $155 - $120 = $35

Tom tuned piano 2 for $125, therefore his surplus on piano 2 is $155 - $125 = $30

Tom tuned piano 3 for $140, therefore his surplus on piano 3 is $155 - $140 = $15

Tom tuned piano 4 for $160, therefore his surplus on piano 4 is $155 - $160 = ($5)

All together his surplus is $35+$30+$15 =$80
