Kryger [21]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning inventory (parts)= 15,000 parts

Sales June= 13,600

Sales July= 10,500

Sales August= 12,700

Parts are purchased at a wholesale price of $30.

Purchasing arrangement:

60 percent on the month of the purchase.

40 percent in the following month.

Lakeside purchased 14,000 parts in May.

A) To calculate the purchase for June and July, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

June= 13,600 - 15,000= -1,400

July= 10,500 - 1,400= 9,100

B) Cash Required:

Purchase from the month

Purchase from the month before

June:

Purchase from the month= 0

Purchase from the month before= (14,000*30)*0.4= 168,000

July:

Purchase from the month= (9,100*30)*0.6= 163,800

Purchase from the month before= 0

seropon [69]

Answer: Cyclical asymmetry

Explanation:

In economics, Cyclical asymmetry is defined as

A value that represents a large imbalance in economic factors due to genuine cyclical reactions by a country or market.

It includes employment rates, interest rates, debt retention, bond strengths, or stock market imbalances.

If we assume the Fed creates excess reserves in the banking system by buying government bonds, but banks do not make more loans because economic conditions are bad.

A corporation has the following account balances: Common Stock, $1 par value, $80,000; Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par Value, $

Nitella [24]

Answer:

b. number of shares issued is 80,000

Explanation:

In the question, the common stock par value and the total amount is given. Moreover, paid-in capital is also given.

So, if we compute it, then it gives the number of shares issued because it contains a formula which is shown below:

Number of shares issued = (Common stock ÷ Par value)

= ($80,000 ÷ $1)

= 80,000 shares

So, paid-in capital is not relevant in the computation part, and therefore, the other options are wrong except b. option.

= $9,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Capital contribution = $23,500

Equipment = $11,500

Cash payment for equipment = $2,500

Utility expense paid = $980

Rent paid = $2,000

Sales = $12,000

Cash Sales = $7,200 (60% of $12,000)
