Answer: D. The equilibrium quantity would increase, and the effect on equilibrium price would be ambiguous.

Explanation: It follows that the quantity of latte produced would increase given that the newly introduced machine reduces the amount labour required and also is more efficient. Therefore more quantities of latter will be produced in short periods. Same thing would occur when it is discovered that the coffee used in producing lattes prevent heart attacks.

In both instances, the equilibrium quantity increases. However, equilibrium price is ambiguous, this is because the discovery that coffee prevents heart attacks would serve to push up prices of latte since suppliers would want to cash in on that, while the use of machines would push price down as a result of mass production.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Jan. 1       Inventory     1,000 units at $120  $120,000     $120,000

Feb. 17    Purchases    1,375 units at $128     176,000      296,000

July 21    Purchases    1,500 units at $136    204,000      500,000

Nov. 23  Purchases     1,125 units at $140     157,500      657,500

Dec. 31   Total units   5,000                        $657,500

Dec. 31   Inventory      1,200

Dec. 31   Units sold    3,800

Inventory cost by:

FIFO ( first-in, first-out method)

July 21    Purchases         75 units at $136  $10,200

Nov. 23  Purchases     1,125 units at $140   157,500

Dec. 31   Inventory      1,200                       $167,700

Jan. 1       Inventory     1,000 units at $120   $120,000

Feb. 17    Purchases      200 units at $128      25,600

Dec. 31   Inventory      1,200                       $145,600

Weighted-Average Cost Method

Total cost of goods available/Total units available  for sale

= $657,500/5,000

= $131.50 per unit

Inventory cost = $157,800 ($131.50 * 1,200)
