Answer:

increases, more

Explanation:

If taxes by government are based on the external cost of producing the goods, there will be a tendency of sellers to push this price increase to the buyers. This will result in price increase for the consumer.

Since the producer is not bearing the added cost, they will be motivated to produce more to meet market demand for products at a cost that is profitable for them. This will result in more efficient market outcome.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

a. The Board would report translation adjustment of <u>-$3,138</u>.

b. See the journal entries and explanation below.

c. Net translation adjustment is <u>-$1,138.</u>

Explanation:

a. Assume that the kite is this subsidiary's functional currency. What translation adjustment would Board report for the year 2017?

Note: See the attached file for the calculation of translation adjustment.

The board would report a negative (debit) translation adjustment of $3,138. That is,

Translation adjustment = -$3,138

b. Assume that on October 1,2017, Board entered into a forward exchange contract to hedge the net investment in this subsidiary. On that date, Board agreed to sell 200,000 kites in three months at a forward exchange rate of $0.76/1 kite. Prepare the journal entries required by this forward contract.

Board Company

                        Cash                                                                       152,000

<em><u>                       (To record 200,000 kites purchased at the spot rate of $0.76) </u></em>

12 Dec 17       Cash                                                  154,000

                         Foreign Currency (kites)                                      152,000

                         Forward contract                                                     2,000

<em><u>                          (To record 200,000 kites delivered, $154,000 received, and close the forward contract account.) </u></em>

Workings:

w.1: Translation adjustment = Number of kites agreed to sell in three months * (Agreed exchange rate on October 1, 2017 per kite - Exchange rate on December 1, 2017) = 200,000 * (0.76 - 0.75) = $2,000

w.2: Foreign Currency (kites) = Number of kites agreed to sell in three months * Agreed exchange rate on October 1, 2017 per kite = 200,000 * 0.76 = $152,000

c. Compute the net translation adjustment for Board to report in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income for the year 2017 under this second set of circumstances.

This can be calculated as follows:

Net translation adjustment = Negative translation adjustment in part a + Positive translation adjustment in part b (i.e. w.1) = -$3,138 + 2,000 = -$1,138

Therefore, net translation adjustment is <u>-$1,138.</u>

Granger Company had January 1 inventory of $150,000 when it adopted dollar-value LIFO. During the year, purchases were $900,000
Lisa [10]

Answer:

$624, 750

Explanation:

Purchases = 900,000

Sales = 1500000

Price index = 110%

Inventory= 189750

1,500,000 - [{($150,000 x 110%) + $900,000} - $189,750]

=1,500,000 - [($150,000 x 1.1) + $900,000] - $189,750

= 1,500,000 - (1065000 - 189750)

= 1,500,000 - 875250

=$624,750

Gross profit. = $624750
