A company: purchased 100 units for $20 each on January 31, purchased 100 units for $30 on February 28, and sold 150 units for $4
igomit [66]

Answer:

Ending inventory as at 31 December = $1500

Explanation:

First-In-First-Out is a method of inventory valuation whereby the stock that comes in first, is used first. This is common for inventory consisting of perishables, such as vegetables where if not used/sold soon, it would be wasted.

Jan 31: Purchases = $20 x 100 units = $2000

<em><u>Remaining inventory:</u></em>

$20 x 100 units = $2000

Feb 28: Purchases = $30 x 100 units = $3000

<em><u>Remaining inventory:</u></em>

$20 x 100 units = $2000

$30 x 100 units = $3000

<em><u>Sales = 150 units x $45:</u></em>

$20 x 100 units = $2000

$30 x 50 units = $1500

<em><u>Remaining inventory</u></em>

200 - 150 = 50 units x $30 = $1500

<em>Thus,</em>

Cost of Goods Sold = $3500 ($2000 + $1500)

Ending inventory as at 31 December = $1500

The Federal Reserve would most likely adopt a contractionary monetary
sergey [27]

Answer:

A. The country has a high inflation rate and rapid economic growth.

Explanation:

A contractionary monetary policy aims at limiting the amount of money supply in the economy. Contractionary monetary policies discourage banks from lending out money to businesses and households. If firms and individuals have no easy access to credit, the level of investments and consumption declines, resulting in slower economic growth.

Contractionary monetary policies are also used to tame a high inflation rate. Inflation is the general increase in prices in the economy. It may arise due to a high economic growth rate. Because contractionary policies decrease the supply of money in the economy, less liquidity reduces the aggregate demand, thereby curbing increasing prices.
