Business

Vesnalui [34]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is:

  • Conduct monetary policy;
  • Ensure that the financial system is stable;
  • Provide banking services to commercial banks, depository institutions, and the federal government.

Explanation:

A central bank is the apex monetary authority in a country. It plays several crucial roles in the smooth working of the economy.

  1. A central bank issues currency on behalf of the government.
  2. It formulates monetary policy on behalf of the government.
  3. It acts as a banker for the government.
  4. It acts as a banker for commercial banks.
  5. It supervises all financial institutions.

The role of providing services to businesses and consumers is played by commercial banks. Fiscal policy is formulated by the government. The responsibility of ensuring the growth of the economy also falls with the government.

The best time to establish reasonable controls is when they are first needed during the project.
VashaNatasha [74]

The best to establish reasonable control in the project is at the start of the project but not when they are first needed during the project.

As we can keep a control or keep some standards at initial stages but now when required. This would then provide best results rather than keeping controls when needed in the project to keep the time saved mostly.

Hence the statement is false.

Basile [38]

Answer: Yes it was

Explanation:

When considering where you should set up location, it is best to look at the cost of locating your business from various perspectives such as raw material acquisition, transport to suppliers, transport to customers and accessibility.

Depending on the business, some factors would have to be given more weight. In the above scenario, raw material acquisition and transport from suppliers should be given a higher weight because the goods are perishable and so costs would be high if the location is too far from the source of the fish.

Given that technology has made it easier to sell from many places, transport to customers is not as major a factor as transport to suppliers. The most important factor to focus on for this business therefore is raw material acquisition and by locating the company so close to the source, the cost to acquire the raw material from suppliers was heavily reduced so this was the best option.

Answer:

Weighted average:

EI:            2,290

COGS:     9, 160

LIFO

EI:            2,400

COGS:     9,050

FIFO

EI:            3,000

COGS:     8,450

Explanation:

beginning 75 units at $ 18 = $  1,350

Mar. 15    200 units at $21 =  $ 4,200

Sept. 4    175 units at $24 =  $ 1,800

July 20   125 units at $22 =  $ 2,750

Dec. 2      50 units at $27 =  $ 1,350

total units:  625 units cost of goods available: 11,450

average cost: 11,450/625  =  $ 18.32 per unit

inventory units: 625 - 500 = 125 units

Weighted average:

EI:          125 x $18.32 = 2,290

COGS: 500 x $18.32 = 9, 160

500 units were sold

LIFO:

last units are sold while frist are inventory

ending inventory

beginning 75 units at $ 18 = $  1,350

Mar. 15      50 units at $21 =  $<u>  1,050  </u>

                                  Total      2,400

COGS: available - ending inventory

11,450 - 2,400 = 9,050

FIFO

first units are sold while last are inventory

Dec. 2      50 units at $27 =  $ 1,350

July 20     75 units at $22 =  $ <u>1,650   </u>

                                  Total      3,000

COGS: available - ending inventory

11,450 - 3,000 = 8,450
