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.

The demand for loanable funds depends on future income.<br><br> a. True<br> b. False
aliina [53]

Answer:

The answer is "Option b".

Explanation:

The Loanable funds are the amount of all the assets that individuals and companies have agreed to save and lend to creditors instead of for personal use, as an investment.

The earnings are also the foundation for supplying loanable funds. That request for credit funds is focused on lending. This relationship among saving provision and loan request decides its real rate as well as the sum of loans.

Several years ago, Castles in the Sand Inc. issued bonds at face value of $1,000 at a yield to maturity of 6.2%. Now, with 6 yea
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The price of the bond is $659.64.

Explanation:

C = coupon payment = $62.00 (Par Value * Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 6

i = market rate, or required yield = 15 = 0.15  = 0.15 /2  = 0.075

k = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 2

P = value at maturity, or par value = $1000

BOND PRICE= C/k [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1 + i )^nk ) / i ] + [ P / ( 1 + i )^nk )]

BOND PRICE= 62/2 [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1 + 0.075 )^6x2 ) / 0.075 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 0.075 )^6x2 )]

BOND PRICE= 31 [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1.075 )^12 ) / 0.075 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.075 )^12 )]

BOND PRICE= 31 [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1.075 )^12 ) / 0.075 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.075 )^12 )]

BOND PRICE= $239.79 + $419.85 = $659.64

Luden [163]

After US companies objected that the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act would put them at a competitive disadvantage, the FCPA was eventually amended to allow for <u>grease payments.</u>

<h3><u>Grease payments are what?</u></h3>

While a grease payment is made to hasten a trade or transaction, the former. The purpose of a grease payment is to expedite the process rather than to actually complete a transaction. Grease payments are not allowed under the FCPA as a way to influence the decision-making process of foreign officials.

In the event that they did, the money would be seen as a bribe and would be prohibited. It all comes down to the purpose of the money, and there is a very thin line between a greasing payment and a foreign bribe.
