Answer:
a. FIFO - Inventory Used: $39900 Remaining Inventory: $14700
b. LIFO - Inventory Used: $41700 Remaining Inventory: $12900
c. Weighted Average Cost - Inventory Used: $40950 Remaining Inventory: $13650
Explanation:
Jan 01. Beginning inventory = 40 x $165 = $6600
Aug 13. Purchases 200 x $180 = $36000
Nov 30. Purchases 60 x $200 = $12000
Ending inventory = 75 units
Inventory Used = 300 – 75 = 225
(a) First-In-First-Out (FIFO)
This is the method where the inventory first received is the one that is used first. Common method when the inventory is perishable and would be wasted if left too long.
Inventory Used:
40 x $165 = $6600
185 x $180 = $33300
Total = $39900
Remaining Inventory:
15 x $180 = $2700
60 x $200 = $12000
Total = $14700
(b) Last-In-First-Out
Method whereby the inventory received latest is used first. Common in goods that are bulky. the inventory on top (latest purchased) is used first.
Inventory Used:
60 x $200 = $12000
165 x $180 = $29700
Total = $41700
Remaining Inventory:
40 x $165 = $6600
35 x $180 = $6300
Total = $12900
(c) Weighted Average Cost
This is whereby you divide the cost of goods sold by the number of units available for sale.
54,600 / 300 = $182
Inventory Used: 225 x $182 = $40950
Remaining inventory = 75 x $182 = $13650
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The company's total book value of debt will be:
= Value of debt + Value of zero coupon bonds
= $70 million + $100 million
= $170 million
b. The market value will be:
= Quoted price × Par value
= ($70 × 1.08) + ($100 × 0.61)
= $75.6 + $61
= $136.6 million
c. The aftertax cost of debt will be:
= (1 - Tax rate) × Pre tax cost of debt
= (1 - 35%) × 5.7%
= 65% × 5.7%
= 3.7%
Answer:
Net profit is more important.
Explanation:
Gross profit is the difference between revenue and costs of goods sold, which means you can have a positive gross profit but still because of other costs not be profitable. Whereas Net profit is the bottom line or profit after all the costs have been deducted from revenue. Net profit is more important because it takes into account all the costs and how much money the company is left with after all its expenditures where as gross profit only measures the difference between cost of goods sold and revenue. A company may have high gross profit because of low cost of goods sold but its interest payments maybe too high because of which it might not be making any net profit, so we cannot conclude much about success and profitability by only looking at gross profit.
