Answer:

The formula for inventory turnover ratio is

Cost of goods sold/ Average inventory. So we can put numbers in the formula and find the cost of good sold for the company.

Inventory turnover ratio= cost of goods sold/Average Inventory

3= cost of goods sold/ 156,000

156,000*3= cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold = 468,000

Now to find out what the average inventory needs to be for the inventory turnover ratio to be 6 and cost of goods sold to be 468,000 we will put these 2 numbers in the formula in order to find the average inventory.

6= 468,000/Average Inventory

Average Inventory = 468,000/6= 78,000

She would need average inventory levels of $78,000 to generate the same level of sales and have an inventory turnover ratio of 6.

Ralph’s Hardware updated its accounting system and agreed to purchase a computer system from a manufacturer, Bits and Bytes (BB)
Andrej [43]
Given:
<span>Fact 1: During contract negotiations, BB’s sales representative promised that the system was “A-1” and “perfect.”
</span><span>Fact 2: The written contract, which the parties later signed, disclaimed all warranties, express and implied. 
</span><span>Fact 3: After installation the computer produced only random numbers and letters, rather than the desired accounting information

The express warranty is given in Fact 1 where the Sales Rep promised that the system was "A-1" and "perfect". There is a breach in express warranty here IF the written contract also expresses the same promises. 

However, the written contract </span>disclaimed all warranties, express and implied. AND BOTH PARTIES SIGNED THIS CONTRACT. It implies that the buyer has read through the contract and has agreed with what is written in the contract. Thus, they can't file a suit against BB for breaching an express warranty since the written and signed contract has already disclaimed all warranties.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Option A is the correct answer,no adjustment is needed.

Explanation:

When related companies sell to each other,the sales transaction is not sales in actual sense,as it is likened to the left hand of an individual exchanging cash with the right hand,in other words, the cash is still owned by the same person.

The same concept is applicable to subsidiaries and parent,the sales recorded from a group perspective is when they sold to external third parties.

When sales happen between related companies, a provision for unrealized profits has to be made to the tune of inventory purchased from related companies  not yet sold externally,as the whole of the goods have been to third parties, no such provision or adjustment is required.

12345 [234]

Answer:

Cheese is a complement for hamburgers. If the price of hamburgers rises, the quantity of hamburgers demanded will <em>fall</em>, which will lead to a <em>fall in the demand</em> for cheese, as cheese and hamburgers are complements to each other. A rise in price of a complementary good will lead to a fall in demand for the complementary good as well. Because of the change in <em>demand</em> for cheese the equilibrium quantity of cheese will <em>fall</em> and the equilibrium price for cheese will also <em>fall</em>, the demand for milk by cheese producers will <em>decline</em>, causing the equilibrium price of milk to <em>fall</em>. This means producers of butter face <em>lower</em> input prices and the supply of butter will <em>rise</em>. The resulting <em>decline</em> in the price of butter causes people to substitute <em>jam for butter</em>, so the demand for jam will <em>decline</em>.

maria [59]

Answer: b. The company did not define its business in terms of the benefits customers seek.

Explanation:

In order for a business to make money, it needs to provide its customers with what they want not what the company wants the customers to want.

In this scenario, people switched to shampoos that could be used by people of all ages instead of just small children because this is what they wanted but not what the company provided. If the company had defined its business in terms of what their customers wanted, they would have made an all age shampoo which would have been bought.
