Answer:

Downward sloping curve with 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spices

Explanation:

PPC reflects production combinations (2 goods), which can be produced given same resources & technology. It is downward sloping because of inverse relationship between two goods, one good increase leads to other good decrease - given same resources & technology.

In this case, it is with analogous factors : production possibilities with respect to unlimited ingredients (resources), limited time. Although resources are given to be unlimited, PPC is likely to be downward sloping : because of inverse relationship between goods - based on time constraint (one good increase will withdraw time from other good & reduce it).

The PPC intercept on X & Y axis represents the maximum amount of that axis good, which can be produced. So: it has 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spice axis.

The slope & shape of PPC depends on Marginal Opportunity Cost, which depends on relative efficiency of resources in two goods.

Resources equally efficient - Constant Good Sacrifise Ratio i.e MOC - PPC straight line. Resources unequally efficient - Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from efficient to inefficient good) i.e MOC rising - PPC Concave. Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from inefficient resources to efficient resources) i.e MOC falling - PPC Convex.

If MOC between mini sandwiches & melon spices is constant, PPC is straight line . If MOC between them is rising, PPC is concave. If MOC between them is falling, PPC is convex.

Ownership = 40%

Investment = $182,000                

Share of dividends = 40%*21,000 =8400

Flint Suppliers reported cost of goods sold for 2017 of $880,000 and retained earnings of $1,230,000 at December 31, 2017. Flint
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

corrected amounts  cost of goods sold = $916500

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = $1159000

Explanation:

given data

cost of goods sold = $880,000

retained earnings = $1,230,000

ending inventories 2016 = $34,500

ending inventories 2017  = $71,000

to find out

corrected amounts  cost of goods sold and retained earnings

solution

we get here first corrected amounts for 2017 cost of goods sold  will be here as

corrected amounts  cost of goods sold = cost of goods sold - ending inventories 2016 + ending inventories 2017   .........1

corrected amounts  cost of goods sold = $880,000 - $34,500 + $71,000

corrected amounts  cost of goods sold = $916500

and now we get corrected amounts Retained Earnings that will be as

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = retained earnings - ending inventories 2017

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = $1,230,000 - $71,000

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = $1159000
