You have been hired as the new controller for the Ralston Company. Shortly after joining the company in 2018, you discover the f

ollowing errors related to the 2016 and 2017 financial statements: Inventory at 12/31/16 was understated by $6,800. Inventory at 12/31/17 was overstated by $9,800. On 12/31/17, inventory was purchased for $3,800. The company did not record the purchase until the inventory was paid for early in 2018. At that time, the purchase was recorded by a debit to purchases and a credit to cash. The company uses a periodic inventory system. Required: 1. Assuming that the errors were discovered after the 2017 financial statements were issued, analyze the effect of the errors on 2017 and 2016 cost of goods sold, net income, and retained earnings. (Ignore income taxes.) 2. Prepare a journal entry to correct the errors.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT, other things held constant? Select one: a. If companies have fewer good investment
jolli1 [7]

Answer: e. Interest rates on long-term bonds are more volatile than rates on short-term debt securities like T-bills.

Explanation:

Long term bonds are considered to be more sensitive to interest rates as opposed to short term securities. If interest rates were to rise, the bond could lose value.

They are also more sensitive to inflation. If inflation rates rise, the value of payment reduces. It is for this reason that longer term bonds have maturity risk premiums added to them to cater for the amount of time the bond has till maturity.

If you need any clarification do react or comment.

Sally is planning to sell her company and she prefers to obtain immediate liquidity, and the value of consideration to be fixed.
ella [17]

Answer: A cash sale

                                           

Explanation: In simple words, liquidity refers to the ability of an organisation to bear its short term expenses. For that a company must have cash or some assets that can be readily converted into cash in case of need.

Hence Sally should sell her company in cash sale as it will result in inflow of cash which will create liquidity and also the consideration will be certain with short timely payments.

Other option such as IPO or  stock for stock might result in increase in value but certainly won't give her liquidity.
