Answer:

Ames should reduce the lease liability by $17,000

Explanation:

There are two components of lease payment:

  1. Interest expense
  2. Amount paid against lease obligation.

Annual Lease = $40,000

Carrying amount at the beginning of the period = ( $270,000 – $40,000 ) = $230,000

Interest is calculated by multiplying the carrying amount with annual interest rate.

Interest expense  = $230,000 x 10% = $23,000

Reduction in liability is the net of Lease payment and Interest expense for the period.

Reduction in lease liability = $40,000 - $23,000 = $17,000

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

b) $12 million

The new Book Value of the firm at the bigining of next year is $12 million.

Closing balance is $12

While JIT systems have many benefits, they:______.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Option A

Make the logistics function more complicated

Explanation:

The JIT inventory system refers to the Just In Time inventory system.

The just-in-time (JIT) inventory system is a management strategy where warehousing of parts is minimum. Rather, the raw material supply is aligned accurately with the production schedule of a particular good.

For example, in car production, the various car parts are supplied by various manufacturers at just the right time so they can be assembled to make up the car in the assembly line. The car assembly companies may not necessarily have to store raw materials in their ware house since the raw materials arrive "Just in time".

However, aligning the supply of raw materials accurately with production time, is a complicated task especially when a lot of manufacturers are involved and can need to plant down time if care is not taken. This makes the logistics function more complicated.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

$7.50 per unit

Explanation:

Cost of buying from outside supplier = $33 per unit.

Relevant cost of making such component in-house = Direct materials+ Direct labor+ Variable overhead

= $9.50 per unit + $13.50 per unit + $2.50 per unit

= $25.50 per unit

Net incremental cost of buying the component = Cost of buying from outside supplier- Relevant cost of making such component in-house

= $33.00 per unit - $25.50 per unit

= $7.50 per unit
