Answer:

The correct answer is d. are used to reduce inventory holding costs.

Explanation:

The Just-in-time inventory (JIT) system is a stock management system where stock is received when needed for production (stock received just in time for production). This inventory strategy increases efficiency and decreases waste by receiving goods only as they need them for the production process, which reduces inventory costs. However its effectiveness lies in accurate demand forecast.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

bonds' face value $180,000

coupon rate 8%, semiannual = 4%

maturity 3 years x 2 = 6 periods

market interest rate = 10% or 5% semiannual

inysia [295]

Answer:

c. $385,958.90

Explanation:

<em>Step 1 Determine the Total Cost Incurred for Both materials and Conversion </em>

<em>Raw Materials</em>

Opening Work In Process                  $200,000

Add Cost Added during the year    $2,000,000

Total                                                   $2,200,000

<em>Conversion</em>

Opening Work In Process                  $200,000

Add Cost Added during the year    $2,500,000

Total                                                   $2,700,000

<em>Step 2 Determine the total equivalent units for materials and conversion</em>

<em>Materials </em>

Closing work in process 100 × 100%                         = 100

Completed and Transferred (600+200-100)×100% =700

Total                                                                            =800

<em>Conversion </em>

Closing work in process 100 × 30%                          =  30

Completed and Transferred (600+200-100)×100% =700

Total                                                                            =730

<em>Step 3 Determine equivalent cost per unit of materials and conversion costs</em>

Materials = $2,200,000/800 = $2,750

Conversion = $2,700,000/730 = $3,699

<em>Step 4 Determine the cost assigned to Ending WIP</em>

Materials  ($2,750×100)           = $275,000

Conversion Cost ($3,699×30) = $110,970

Total                                           =$385970
