Answer:

The answer is $762

Explanation:

Without doubt the 140 units on hand at month end would comprises of:

100 bought units on 1/28/13 for $5.50 each        $550

40 units purchased on 1/15/13 $5.30 each           $212

Total value of closing inventory                             $762

The value of closing inventory at the end of the month using FIFO method of valuing inventory is $762

FIFO First In First Out method assumes that the first sets of stock purchased are sold first which is in  sharp contrast with LIFO Last In First Out where the last sets of inventory are assumed to be sold first.

However, the LIFO method tends to overvalue inventory in a period of rising inflation

Answer:

Ending inventory value is $762 (100 units at $5.50 each, i.e. $550 + 40 units at $5.30 each, i.e. $212).

Explanation:

The FIFO inventory system assumes that the units bought first will be utilized first.  It is called First-in, First-out.

The implication is that for the 140 units ending inventory for January 2013, the value will be split between the purchases on January 28 and January 15.  Therefore, the first 100 units from the 140 are costed at the purchase price of $5.50 per unit while the remaining 40 units are costed at the purchase price of $5.30 per unit.

There are other methods of valuing inventory, including LIFO (Last in, First Out), Weighted Average Method, e.t.c. which are not discussed here.

How do trade-offs decided by corporations and government impact our lives?
Fittoniya [83]

Explanation:

Trade offs are something in which there are two things and we choose one of them according to our own preference or need. This is and should be our personal decision, but when Corporations and Governments decide on what to choose between two things, there would might be a negative impact on someone's life. He might feel controlled by the corporations and governments. For example, if corporations of CNG decides with the government that it is better for consumers to use CNG than Petrol in their cars, and lowers taxes on CNG and encourage consumers to shift towards CNG, then this trade off will have an impact of being controlled by the big giants. The choice should be of consumer's. The consumer should be the one who will trade off between things who are preferable for him.
