Vibrant Company had $850,000 of sales in each of three consecutive years 2016–2018, and it purchased merchandise costing $500,00

0 in each of those years. It also maintained a $250,000 physical inventory from the beginning to the end of that three-year period. In accounting for inventory, it made an error at the end of year 2016 that caused its year-end 2016 inventory to appear on its statements as $230,000 rather than the correct $250,000. Required: 1. Determine the correct amount of the company's gross profit in each of the years 2016−2018. 2. Prepare comparative income statements to show the effect of this error on the company's cost of goods sold and gross profit for each of the years 2016−2018.

Answer:

Please, for answer see attached file.

Explanation:

The difference will be between the gross profit in the years 2016 and 2017, because of the error. This is because the error will cause a difference in the cost of sold goods.  

In the year 2018, there will be no difference because the beginning inventory and final inventory are right.

But, for the three-year period, there will no be a difference in the total, because both, beginning and final inventory are correctly registered.

Explain why to maximize profits a firm needs to produce an output at a level where marginal revenue
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Rest of question:

... equals marginal cost.

Firms will maximize profits at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because producing after this point means that no profits will be made.

As long as the Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost, there will be profits made because the company is making more than it is spending so they should keep producing. When it gets to a point in production where the marginal revenue equals marginal cost, the company should not produce further than that.

This is because, as earlier mentioned, any further production would result in the marginal cost being larger than the marginal revenue which means that a loss will be made. The company should therefore stop at the point where MR = MC so as not to let MC get larger than MR so that no losses will be made.

If you can't find the time to make one from scratch, there are templates that can be used to help.

kipiarov [429]

Answer: 1. Convertible bond

2. Putable bond

3. Purchasing power bond.

Explanation:

The $100,000 investment is a convertible bond. This is a fixed-income debt security which yields interest payments. It should be noted that it can also be converted to equity shares or common stock.

Nazeem should pick a putable bond. This is because the puttable bond has a put option that is embedded ans he can also demand his principal to be paid early.

Nazem also recently bought bonds that have their interest rate tied to the consumer price index (CPI) so that he will be protected if inflation rates increase. Nazem has invested in purchasing power bond .
