How will this purchase impact the accounting equation of Perfect Printers at the time of the purchase?

An increase in the assets by $200,000 and a similar increase in liability by $200,000

Explanation:

The accounting equation is the foundation for the double enter system of account balancing. In this system, the amount of debits are entered on one side as the corresponding credit is entered on the other side. Then the total credits are added and compared to the sum of the debit. When the credit equals the debit, the accounts balance. The accounting equation can be expressed as;

A=L+E

where;

A=assets

L=liabilities

E=owner's equity

Lets enter the transaction as shown;

Printing machine                          $200,000

Cash                                                                                       $200,000

An increase in the assets by $200,000 and a similar increase in liability by $200,000

vova2212 [387]

Answer: The options are given below:

A. $18.00

B. $1,036.80

C. $2.00

D. $7.20

E. $64.00

The correct option is D. $7.20

Explanation:

From the question above, we were given:

Annual demand = 100,000 units

Production = 4 hour cycle

d = 400 per day (250 days per year)

p = 4000 units per day

H = $40 per unit per year

Q = 200

We will be using the EPQ or Q formula to calculate the cost setup, thus:

Q = √(2Ds/H) . √(p/(p-d)

200=√(2x400x250s/40 . √(4000/(4000-400)

200=√5,000s . √1.11

By squaring both sides, we have:

40,000=5,550s

s=40,000/5,550

s=7.20
