Answer:

Return  (%)   = 17.43%

Explanation:

T<em>he return on investment is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.</em>

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.

Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:

Dividend= ($1.60× 140)= $224

Capital gains= (90-78) × 140= $1680

Total dollar return on Investment = $224+ $1680= $1904

Total return in (%) = Return/ cost of shares × 100

                           = 1904/ (140 × 78) ×  100

                           = 17.43%

Answer:

Sheridan Company

The correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report is:

= $367,100

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

December 31 Inventory based on physical inventory =      $320,800

Goods held on consignment by Herschel =                            46,300

December 27, FOB destination goods ($22,000)                   0

Correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report $367,100

b) Goods on consignment are generally the property of the consignor (supplier) and not the consignee's (retailer's).  Therefore, they must appear in the balance sheet of the consignor.  Goods on FOB destination remain the property of the supplier until they reach the buyer's destination.  This is why it is not included above.
