Answer:

d) Both of these answers are correct.

Explanation:

Base on the scenario been described in the question, Operating income can differ materially between the results for the weighted-average and FIFO methods when the physical inventory levels of work in process are large relative to the total number of units transferred out and direct materials or conversion costs per unit vary significantly from period to period.

Answer:

The answer is d .Both of the options a and b are correct

When the direct materials or conversion costs per unit vary significantly from period to period and the physical inventory levels of work in process are large relative to the total number of units transferred out using both methods ,the operating income will vary

Explanation:

Weighted average method Calculates cost per equivalent unit of all work done to date not considering the accounting period and assigns this cost to equivalent units completed and transferred out of the process and to equivalent units in ending work-in-process inventory.

Fifo ..First in first out

Assigns the cost of equivalent units worked on during the current period first to complete beginning inventory, next to start and complete new units, and finally to units in ending work-in-process inventory.

The U.S. government decides that the incomes of dairy farmers should be maintained at a level that allows the traditional family
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

$2.8 billion per year

Explanation:

Currently the amount of surplus milk in the US is really high since the demand per capita for milk has decreased by 40% in the last 50 years. Excess milk is turned into cheese since it doesn't last very long, and the current amount of surplus cheese is 1.4 billion pounds.

If yous need on average 4 pints of milk per pound of hard cheese and 2 pints per pound of soft cheese, that means that the total surplus milk production is between 2.8 and 5.6 billion pints.

If the government is going to purchase that excess milk, then it is going to need at least $2.8 billion per year.

A resort hotel is planning to install a computerized inventory system to manage complementary guest items such as soap and shamp
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a) safety stock = z-score x √lead time x standard deviation of demand

z-score for 99.9% = 3.29053

√lead time = √7 = 2.6458

standard deviation of demand = 3

safety stock = 3.29053 x 2.6458 x 3 = 26.12 ≈ 26 soaps

reorder point = lead time demand + safety stock = (7 x 16) + 26 = 138 soaps

EOQ = √[(2 x S x D) / H]

S = order cost = $10

D = annual demand = 16 x 365 = 5,840

H = $0.05

EOQ = √[(2 x $10 x 5,840) / $0.05] = 1,528.40 ≈ 1,528 soaps

b) total order costs per year = (5,840 / 1,528) x $10 = $38.22

total holding costs = (1,528 / 2) x $0.05 = $38.20

total annual ordering and holding costs = $76.42

Kingbird Inc. owns equipment that cost $672,000 and has accumulated depreciation of $174,000. The expected future net cash flows
aev [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this scenario, we compare the values between book value and the fair value of equipment, the difference would be the loss on impairment of the asset

In mathematically,  

= Book value - fair value

where,

Book value = Equipment cost - accumulated depreciation

                   = $672,000 - $174,000

                   = $498,000

And, the fair value is $384,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $498,000 - $384,00

= $114,000

Now the journal entry would be

Loss on impairment A/c Dr $114,000

      To Accumulated depreciation A/c $114,000

(Being the impairment loss is recorded)

Anna is willing to spend $500 for the bike she wants. if she finds a bike store where the price of the bike she wants is only $4
muminat
The answer is $100. The consumer surplus is $100 because that is the difference between what Anna has set as her ceiling for the purchase of the bicycle, $500, and then subtracted by the amount that she actually does pay, $400, that difference is what is referred to as consumer surplus. What the consumer is mentally committed to paying minus what the consumer actually pays.
