Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

January 1 Beginning Inventory 10 units at $18 each

April 3 Purchase 30 units at $20 each

August 31 Purchase 28 units at $25 each

September 29 Purchase 17 units at $30 each

Ending Inventory= 21 units

First, we need to calculate the ending inventory using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method.

The ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the last units incorporated into inventory.

Ending inventory= 17*30 + 4*25= $610

Now, we need to calculate the ending inventory using the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method.

The ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory.

Ending inventory= 10*18 + 11*20= $400

Finally, we need to calculate the ending inventory using the weighted-average inventory method.

average cost= (18 + 20 + 25 + 30)/4= $23.25

Ending inventory= 21*23.25= $488.25

Suppose that a decrease in the demand for goods and services pushes the economy into recession. What happens to the price level?

counter this, then the actual price level will be below the price level that people expected.

wages will adjust accordingly, shifting the aggregate supply curve to the right (down). For example

for lower nominal wages. The reduction in wages lowers costs of production, so firms are willing to

Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold: Periodic Inventory System with Sales Returns and Allowances

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

73,450 COGS

Explanation:

From the beginning inventory we add up purchase and freight cost and subtract the return made to the suplier and discount and allowance granted.

This will be the total cost available for sale.

Then we subtract the ending inventory to get the COGS

27,000 beginning inventory

+ 78,000 purchases

+ 350 freight-in

- 3,900 return and allowance

- 6,000 discount

95,450 good available for sale

- 22,000 ending inventory

73,450 COGS

The sales return impact the sales revenue not the COGS

Bess [88]

This liability is called the insurer's "loss reserve".

Loss reserve is a gauge of an insurer's liability from future cases. Loss reserves most often contain liquid resources, and they enable the insurer to cover claims made against strategies that it endorses. Assessing liabilities can be a difficult task. Insurers need to regulate loss reserve estimations as the situation change.
