Answer:

allows accurate predictions.

Explanation:

The law of large numbers  states that the larger the amount of policy holders, the probability distribution of the number of claims (losses for the insurance company) will be shaped like a normal distribution. This allows the companies to make more accurate predictions about the future number of claims.

In statistics, the law of large numbers states that as the sample size increases, the mean will be much closer to the real mean of the total population.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

$36,750

Explanation:

Calculation to estimate the ending inventory for 2019 assuming Raleigh Department Store used the LIFO retail method

LIFO retail method

($) Cost ($) Retail

Beginning inventory $33,210 $43,000

Add purchases $249,510 $470,000

Freight in $26,500 $0

Less: purchase returns ($6,300) ($22,000)

Purchase discount ($4,800) $0

Add net marks up $0 23,000

Less: net mark downs $0 ($22,000)

Goods available for sale (excluding beginning inventory) $264,910 $449,000

(298,120 -33,210=264,910)

(492,000-43,000=449,000)

Goods available for sale (Including beginning inventory) $298,120 $492,000

Cost to retail ratio 59%

[(264,910/449,000) *100]

Less: net sales

Sales $446,500 $0

Sales return $8,000 ($438,500)

($446,500-$438,500=$8,000)

Employee discount $0 ($4,500)

Estimated ending inventory at retail $0 $49,000

Estimated ending inventory at cost $36,750

[ 33,210 +(49,000 -43,000)*59%]

Therefore the Estimated ending inventory at cost is $36,750

Residual Income is the difference between net income of the company and the required rate of return. It determines the excess of income generate than the minimum return. The formula to calculate the residual income is,
