1 answer:
TiliK225 [7]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Compound interest pays interest on the principal and the interest

Explanation:

Compound interest is preferred because it calculates interest on the principal amount and the accrued interest. In compounding interest, the interest earned in the period is added to the principal to become the new principal amount. Interest earned at the end of every year will higher than the previous period as the principal amount increases at the beginning of a period.  

Interest earned by the compound interest method grows much faster compared to the fixed-rate interest method. Investors wishing to have better returns from their savings will prefer the compound interest method.

FIFO Perpetual Inventory
RideAnS [48]

1. The total sales and cost of goods sold for the period are <u>$381,370</u> and <u>$147,510</u>, respectively.

2. The gross profit from sales for the period is <u>$233,860</u>.

3. The ending inventory cost as of June 30 is <u>$43,560</u>.

<h3>How are the amounts determined using the FIFO method?</h3>

The total sales can be computed by summing the sales units and dollars.

The cost of goods sold is the difference between the cost of goods available for sale and the ending inventory.

The gross profit is the difference between the sales revenue and the cost of goods sold.

The ending inventory is determined as the product of units in the ending inventory multiplied by the purchase cost per unit.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Date     Transaction     Number of Units      Per Unit       Total

Apr. 3    Inventory                    66                    $225        $14,850

1. Determination of the total sales and the total cost of goods sold for the period.

<h3>Total Sales:</h3>

30         Sale                           55                       750          41,250

May 10  Sale                           66                       750         49,500

19          Sale                           33                       750          24,750

June 5  Sale                           66                      790           52,140

16          Sale                           88                      790           69,520  

28         Sale                           99                      790           78,210

Total sales                           495                                   $381,370

<h3>Cost of sales:</h3>

Cost of Goods Sold = Cost of goods available for sale minus ending inventory

= $147,510 ($191,070 - $43,560)

2. Determination of the gross profit from sales for the period.

Gross profit = $233,860 ($381,370 - $147,510)

3. Determination of the ending inventory cost as of June 30.

Ending inventory = $43,560 (121 x $360)

Apr. 3    Inventory                   66                    $225         $14,850

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

See the explanation below for the basic EPS and diluted EPS

Explanation:

To calculate EPS we use the earnings of the company adjusted for any income for preferential shareholders. In this case there is no preference shareholders. Thus income attributable to ordinary shareholders is $ 420 000 (net income)

Average outstanding shares for BASIC eps calculation is 1500 000 shares.

BASIC EPS = 420/1500

                  = $ 0,28 per ordinary share

When calculating diluted EPS we include instruments that can potentially increase the number of shares and dilute net income. Thus we will include the 60,000 shares to executives that have a three year condition attached to them.

Diluted EPS = 420/(1500+60)

                    = $0,269

A talented musician plays for tips on the street but never seems to make very much money. Which of the following economic concep
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The correct answer is: the free-rider problem.

Explanation:

The free-rider problem occurs when individuals do not want to pay their fair share for something others pay. The free-rider problem tends to happen when everyone has access to a source without constraints and there is little to no regulation over the use of the resource.

Thus, <em>the talented musician's jar is never full because of the free-rider problem: some people give the musician tips to eager him to continue doing it or because they liked the music while others, even if they liked and enjoyed the musician's play, are reluctant to tip him since they prefer to listen to the music for free.</em>
