Answer:
1. Companies using FIFO will report the highest gross profit and net income.
2. Companies using FIFO will report the smallest cost of goods sold.
3. Weighted average cost of goods sold will be between FIFO and LIFO costs of goods sold.
4. Companies using FIFO will pay higher taxes than companies using LIFO, assuming all else being equal.
Explanation:
If costs are rising, companies using FIFO will report higher profits simply because they calculate cost of goods sold based on the oldest products which were purchased at a lower cost.
FIFO and LIFO costs will be the extreme points, FIFO showing lowest costs while LIFO will result in the highest costs, while the weighted average will be in between.
Since companies using FIFO report higher profits, they will have to pay more taxes.

Answer:
(1) rate = 25% of direct labor cost
(2) rate = 30% of direct materials
Explanation:
To determinate the rate We distribute the total overhead cost over a given cost driver.
factory overhead 117,000
direct materials 390,000
direct labor 468,000
(1) We are asked to use direct labor as a cost driver
117,000/468,000 = 0.25 = 25%
(2) We are asked to use direct materials as a cost driver
117,000/398,000 = 0.25 = 30%
Answer: $2151
Explanation:
The amount of the discount on these bonds at issuance will be the difference between the par value of the bond issues by Tank company and the price at which the bonds were sold. This will be:

= $2151
Therefore, the amount of the discount on these bonds at issuance is $2151.
