Answer:

24.7215

Explanation:

Given;

Discount = 50%

Regular price, p = $8

cost of cake, c = $5

salvage value, s = 50% of $8 = $4

Mean = 20

Standard deviation, σ = 7

Now,

Underage cost, Cu = p - c

= $8 - $5

= $3

Overage cost, Co = c - s

= $5 - $4

= $1

P ≤ \frac{C_{u}}{(C_{u}+C_{o})}

P ≤  \frac{3}{(3+1)}

P ≤ 0.75

The Z value for the probability 0.75 is 0.6745

The optimal stocking level = Mean + ( z × σ )

= 20 + 0.6745 × 7

= 24.7215

____ [38]

Stock price would be equal to total value of equity divided by no. of shares outstanding. The total value of equity would be calculated as follows:

Total value of equity = corporate value – notes payable – long term debt – preferred stock

= $900 million - $110 million – 90 million – 20 million

= $680 million

The price of the stock would be:

Stock price = total value of equity / no. of shares outstanding

= $680 million / 25 million

= $27.20

Which inventory costing method results in the lowest net income during a period of rising inventory​ costs?.
scoray [572]

Due to the greatest cost of goods sold, the LIFO (Last In Last Out) technique displays the lowest net profitability. Compared to the other techniques of inventory valuation, the cost of goods sold for the LIFO approach is the greatest.

<h3>Which technique of inventory valuation will result in the lowest net profit?</h3>

The application of LIFO will produce the lowest net income and the greatest estimated cost of goods sold among the three options during periods of inflation.

<h3>Which method of inventory has the lowest income tax rate?</h3>

LIFO is the inventory cost flow method that yields the lowest income tax liability. A form of inventory cost flow mechanism called last-in-first-out (LIFO) operates under the presumption that the last item acquired will be the first item to be sold.

<h3>In an era of inflation, which inventory method results in the lowest income tax?</h3>

Due to increasing COGS, LIFO leads to reduced net income (and taxes). However, under LIFO during inflation, there are fewer inventory write-downs. Results from average cost are in the middle of FIFO and LIFO.

A total of $44,000 is invested in two municipal bonds that pay 5.75% and 7.25% simple interest. The investor wants an annual int
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Amount invested at 5.75% = $30,000

Amount invested at 7.25% = $14,000

Explanation:

Let the amount invested

at 5.75% = X

at 7.25% = Y

According to given condition

X + Y = $44,000 ( Eq 1)

and

0.0575X + 0.0725Y = $2,740 ( Eq 2)

By multiplying ( Eq 1) with 0.0575

0.0575X + 0.0575Y = $2,530 ( Eq 3)

By subtracting ( Eq 3) from ( Eq 2)

0.0725Y - 0.0575Y = $2,740 - $2,530

0.015Y = 210

Y = 210 / 0.015

Y = $14,000

X + $14,000 = $44,000

X = $44,000 - $14,000

X = $30,000

Check:

$30,000 x 5.75% + $14,000 x 7.25% = $2,740

$2,740 = $2,740
