Answer:

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Profit as per FIFO is higher than profit as per LIFO

Explanation:

In the given case, as per both the methods computation shall be as follows:

Date Quantity Rate Amount

Mar 1 22 units $29 $638

Jun 16 31 units $30 $930

Nov 28 41 units $37 $1,517

Total 94 units $3,085

Closing units = 18

That means sales = 94 - 18 = 76 units

Thus as per LIFO cost = 41 units @ $37 + 31 units @ $30 + 4 units @ $29

= $2,563

Closing stock = 18 units @ $29 = $522

As per FIFO cost = 22 units @ $29 + 31 units @ $30 + 23 units @ $37 = $2,419

Closing stock = 18 units @ $37 = $666

Thus, difference of closing stock = $666 - $522 = $144

Profit as per FIFO is higher by $144

Cost is higher in LIFO by $2,563 - $2,419 = $144

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

An author just signed a lucrative contract with a publisher that offers to pay her the amount of $500 at the end of year 9 when

solong [7]

Answer:

Ans. The annuity that will be equivalent to the publisher´s advance would be $26.40 per year, for 9 years at 7% interest rate.

Explanation:

Hi, first, let´s bring that $500 to be paid in 9 years to present value, we need to use the following formula.

$PresentValue=\frac{FutureValue}{(1+r)^{n} }$

Where: r is our discount rate (7%) and n the periods from now when she will receive that $500 amount. This should look like this.

$PresentValue=\frac{500}{(1+0.07)^{9} } =271.97$

Ok, so the equivalent amount of money today of those $500 in nine years is $271.97, but the author wants $100 today so the remaining amount has to be used to find the equal annual payments to be made in order to be equivalent to re remaining balance ($171.97). We now need to use the following equation.

$Present Value=\frac{A((1+r)^{n}-1 )}{r(1+r)^{n} }$

And we solve for "A" like this

$171.97=\frac{A((1+0.07)^{9}-1 )}{0.07(1+0.07)^{9} }$

$171.97=\frac{A(0.838459212 )}{0.128692145}$

$171.97=A(6.515232249)$

$A=\frac{171.97}{6.515232249} = 26.40$

Therefore, the equivalent amount of money of $500 in 9 years is $100 today and $26.40 every year, at the end of the year, for nine years.

Best of luck.

A $1000 bond with a coupon rate of 6.2% paid semiannually has eight years to maturity and a yield to maturity of 8.3%. If intere

ohaa [14]

Answer:

The price of the bond will be $879

Explanation:

Price of the bond is the present value of all cash flows of the bond. Price of the bond is calculated by following formula:

According to given data

Coupon payment = C = $1,000 x 6.2 = $62 annually = $31 semiannually

Number of periods = n = 2 x 8 years = 16 periods

Current Yield = r = 8.3% / 2 = 4.15% semiannually

Price of the Bond = $31 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 4.15% )^-16 ) / 4.15% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 4.15% )^16 ]

Price of the Bond = $31 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.0415)^-16 ) / 0.0415 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 0.0415 )^16 ]

Price of the Bond = $31 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.0415)^-16 ) / 0.0415 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.0415 )^16 ]

Price of the Bond = $521.74 + $357.26 = $879

Sunland Company is unsure of whether to sell its product assembled or unassembled. The unit cost of the unassembled product is $

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.

Explanation:

To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:

= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing

= $87 - $62 - $26

= -$1

Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".

Larkspur, Inc. reports net income of $91,800 in 2022. However, ending inventory was understated $7,800. What is the correct net

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

$99,600

Explanation:

If the ending inventory was understated that means that they have less of the inventory than they had originally expected, this means that they sold more than they have calculated and therefore have not included the $7,800 in the net income. Therefore, we would need to add this amount to the actual reported net income to get the correct net income for 2022...

$91,800 + $7,800 = $99,600

The correct net income for 2022 is $99,600
