Answer:

1. Compute the cost of goods available for sale, cost of ending inventory, and cost of goods sold at December 31 under each of the following inventory costing methods:

A. Last-in, first-out:

  • cost of goods available for sale = $20,230
  • cost of goods sold = $12,315
  • ending inventory = $7,915

B. Weighted average cost:  

  • cost of goods available for sale = $20,230
  • cost of goods sold = $11,543
  • ending inventory = $8,687

C. First-in, first-out:

  • cost of goods available for sale = $20,230
  • cost of goods sold = $10,675
  • ending inventory = $9,555

D. Specific identification, assuming that the April 1 sale was selected one-fifth from the beginning inventory and four-fifths from the purchase of March 2. Assume that the sale of August 1 was selected from the purchase of June 30:

  • cost of goods available for sale = $20,230
  • cost of goods sold = $11,379
  • ending inventory = $8,851

2A. Of the four methods, which will result in the highest gross profit?

  • First-in, first-out , since COGS is lowest

2B. Of the four methods, which will result in the lowest income taxes?

  • Last-in, first-out , since COGS are highest

Explanation:

Beginning inventory, January 1 240 $21  = $5,040

A. Purchase on account, March 2 320 $23 = $ 7,360

C. Purchase on account, June 30 290 $27  = $7,830

total 850 units, $20,230

B. Cash sale, April 1 ($37 each) (390)

D. Cash sale, August 1 ($37 each) (95)

total units sold 485 units

COGS:

LIFO = (290 x $27) + (195 x $23) = $7,830 + $4,485 = $12,315

FIFO = (240 x $21) + (245 x $23) = $5,040 + $5,635 = $10,675

WA = ($20,230 / 850) x 485 = $11,543

SI = (78 x $21) + (312 x $23) + (95 x $27) = $1,638 + $7,176 + $2,565 = $11,379

Emma is the labor union negotiator. Today, she is meeting with management to discuss the new five-year contract, including wages
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Distributive bargaining

Explanation:

Distributive bargaining can be defined as a type of bargaining system/strategy in which one party gains only if the other party loses.

Distributive bargaining is mostly used when there is a negotiation that involves fixed resources e.g; money, assets, etc.

Distributive bargaining as a negotiation strategy does not aim to provide a win-win situation for all parties involved but that one party loses while the other gains considerably.

An example of distributive bargaining is a supermarket having a fixed price for an item. in that situation, you can't bargain and as such you either buy the item or leave the store.

That results in a win for the supermarket and a loss for you the buyer should yo choose to buy the item.

Cheers
