Answer:

The benefit cost ratio is 1.564

Explanation:

The benefit-cost ratio is the ratio of the present value of benefits to the present value of costs. It is thus calculated as follows.

Benefit-cost ratio = Present value of benefits / Present value of costs

Present value of costs = $20,000 + $2,500 (P/A, 10%, 10 years)

                                     = $20,000 + $15,361

                                     = $35,361

Present value of benefits = $9,000 (P/A, 10%, 10 years)

                                          = $9,000 x 6.145

                                          = $55,305

Benefit-cost ratio = $55,305 / $35,361

                             = 1.564

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Closing inventory - $10,160

Costs of goods sold - $9,600

Explanation:

Under the LIFO Method, the cost of good sold equals to

= April 23 units × cost per unit + Remaining units × cost per unit

= 300 units × $22 + 150 units × $20

= $6,600 + $3,000

= $9,600

Since the firm has sold 450 units, so out of which 300 units sold at a price of $22 and the remaining 150 units sold at a price of $20

The ending inventory equals to

= Remaining units × cost per unit + April 1 × cost per unit

= 270 units × $20 + 280 units × $17

= $5,400 + $4,760

= $10,160

Since on April 23, the 420 units were purchase, out of which 150 units are transferred to the cost of good sold and the remaining units 270 units at $20 is transferred to the ending inventory
