An overstatement of ending inventory at the end of the current period will cause an overstatement of assets and an understatemen

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The change in inventory balance in a period is usually due to purchases and sales. The period opening and closing balances are connected as such;

Opening balance + purchases - cost of goods sold = ending balance

Hence overstating the ending balance results in an understatement of cost of goods sold thereby resulting in an overstatement of net income and retained earning.

The retained earnings is a component of the stockholder's equity hence it is overstated as well. Inventory is an asset, so overstating it is equivalent to overstating the assets balance.

What is the effect on market when suppliers under invest in their businesses​
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

  • Low supply
  • Scarcity
  • Low economic growth

Explanation:

When suppliers under invest in their business, they will end up having the capacity to only produce less than the market requires. Should this happen, supply will be reduced in the market which would lead to relative scarcity all else being equal.

For economic growth to happen, there must be increasing production in an economy so if suppliers are under investing and production is low, there might be low or no economic growth.

valkas [14]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: Decreasing marginal product.

Marginal product is the change in the level of output, when there will be an extra input employed in the production of a certain commodity.

So, Marginal Product = \frac{change\ in\ Q}{Change\ in\ I}

Where,

Q = Output

I = Input

Marginal product of 1st bag = 500

Marginal product of 2nd bag =  \frac{800-500}{2-1} = 300

Marginal product of 3rd bag =  \frac{900-800}{3-2} = 100

∴ From the above calculations, we can seen that as we employed one more bag of seeds as a result marginal product goes on diminishing.

Hence, Joan's production function exhibits decreasing marginal product.
