Answer:

D) every company is trying to implement them and hence it does not make a company different from others

Explanation:

The problem when something too popular, is that everybody is doing the same thing. This applies to individuals, businesses and even governments.

Total quality, benchmarking and reengineering were seen as complete and radical innovations during the 1980s and 1990s, and back then they really made a difference. The problem is that every company is trying to do the same now, and what makes a company successful is being different and working better than the rest.

Beginning inventory, purchases, and sales for an inventory item are as follows: Sep. 1 Beginning Inventory 23 units $16 5 Sale 1
Allisa [31]

Answer:

(a) the cost of the goods sold for the September 30 sale and

  • COGS = $415

(b) the inventory on September 30.

  • Ending inventory = 9 units at $17 = $153

Explanation:

date        transaction           units         unit price          total

1              beginning inv.        23                $16               $368

5             sale                        -13                                    ($208)

17            purchase               24                 $17               $408

30           sale                       -25                                    ($415)

30           ending inv.              9                 $17               $153

When we use first in, first out (FIFO) inventory method, the price of the units sold are calculated using the oldest units in inventory.

The COGS of the units sold on Sept. 5 = 13 units x $16 = $208

The COGS of the units sold on Sept. 30 = (10 units x $16) + (15 units x $17) = $160 + $255 = $415

Ending inventory = 9 units at $17 = $153
