If inventory is being valued at cost and the price level is steadily rising, which of the three costing methods (FIFO, LIFO, wei
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

LIFO                

Explanation:

It will be the one that give higher Cost of goods sold. We also know that:

Cost of goods sold = Opening Inventory + Inventory Purchases - Closing Inventory

So this means the lower the closing inventory the higher the cost of goods sold and in time of price increases it will be more appropriate to use LIFO method which will reduce the Closing Inventory and this will increase the cost of goods sold and thus decrease in profit. This reduced profit means that the tax expense will also be lower in value.

Similarly the second attractive option will be the Weighted Average and the least attractive option would be FIFO costing method.

raketka [301]

Answer:

Net income= $2,328,000

ROA= 12%

ROE= 25.30%

Explanation:

Aquilera incorporation has a sales of $19.4 million

The total assets is $14.4 million

The total debt is $5.2 million

The profit margin is 12%

The net income can be calculated as follows

= profit margin × sales

= 12/100 × 19,400,000

= 0.12 × 19,400,000

= $2,328,000

The ROA can be calculated as follows

= Net income/Average Sales

= 2,328,000/19,400,000

= 0.12 × 100

= 12%

The ROE can be calculated as follows

= Net income/Total equity

Total equity= Total assets - Total debt

= 14,400,000-5,200,000

= 9,200,000

= 2,328,000/9,200,000

= 0.2530 × 100

= 25.30%

ioda
I would suggest it would most likely to be either A or B or both, however if I had to pick one I would go for A.

A - The question suggests you may have been putting more effort and <span>enthusiasm</span> into sales of the products for your new business "<span>you were so excited about the large volume of orders you had" which may mean after your first year of business you may have started to slack of or get complacent with putting you business out there marketing wise, also when launching a product for the first time people are interested in the new and latest thing (such as a new business) after a while people start to forget unless you have marketing and advertising to remind them.
</span>
B - If the product you offer is unique and you were the first business to sale this / these items then after a year it is possible other competitors have started to copy you however this would completely depend on the products you sale.

C - Given you already had large orders in the first year people are happy to pay for the products you offer so this would exclude C.

D - If you have already had many orders in the first year people obviously want the products you sale even if you only sale 1 or 2 things so unlikely to be D.
