Explanation:
Over the past several decades, advances in technology, greatly reduced the cost of making computers which resulted in the decline of the equilibrium price of computers and also resulted in increased equilibrium quantity. The reduction in the computer prices also caused an increase in the consumer surplus.
computer price down -> equilibrium price down
computer price down -> equilibrium quantity up
computer price down -> consumer surplus up
The producer surplus increases due to increase in quantity and at the same time producer surplus decreases due to decrease in price.
computer price down -> producer surplus down
computer quantity up -> producer surplus up
Answer:
a) Disclose in the notes
b) no Disclosure
c) Record a liability
Explanation:
There are three scenarios to be considered
1) It is reasonably possible that Huprey will lose a pending lawsuit. The loss cannot be estimable
First, premise is that Huprey Co. is facing a lawsuit and the possibility of a loss is most possible. If Huprey Co is able to recognize the amount of loss, then he would have been able to record a liability but the inability to estimate the loss means, the company can o<u>nly make appropriate disclosure in notes</u>
2)Huprey is being used for damages of $2 million. It is very unlikely (remote) that Huprey will lose the case.
This second premise is also a lawsuit on damages for $2 million, however, it is most reasonably acceptable that Huprey will win the lawsuit. As such there is no loss, that way there will be no disclosure in Huprey Co's books.
3. Huprey can reasonably estimate that a pending lawsuit will result in damages of $1.25 million, it is probable that Huprey will lose the case.
The probability of losing a case means that there will be a loss to be recorded in the books and since the damages are already estimable to be $1.25 million. Huprey Co should record a liability
Answer: d. Entire initial investment will not be recovered.
Explanation:
The Payback period by definition is the amount of time it will take a Project to recover the initial investment into it. For example, if a project had an investment of $20 million and made $5 million every year, the Payback period would be 4 years.
Now, if the amount of time it will take to recover an investment is longer than the expected amount of time the project will run (expected useful life) then logically speaking that would mean that the Investment would not be entirely recovered because the project will be done before it can pay off the investment hence Option D is correct.

Answer:
c) Inventory (beginning) and Purchases.
Explanation:
When you use perpetual inventory system, you must record cost of goods sold every time you make a sale. But when you use a periodic inventory system, you close cost of goods sold with merchandise inventory account at the end of the period.
beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory = cost of goods sold
