Answer:Ending Inventory at Cost= $981,248.40

Explanation:

Cost Retail

Beginning inventory $393,500 $594,000

purchases $3,408,000 $5,193,600

freight in $159,500,

net markups $414,000

Total $3,961,000 $6,201,600

Sales $4,666,000

Ending Inventory at Retail:=(Beginning inventory + purchases +net markups - Sales during the current year

594,000 + $5,193,600 + $414,000- $4,666,000, = $1,535,600

Cost to Retail Ratio:( Beginning inventory + purchases+freight in)/ (Beginning inventory + purchases +net markups )

=($393,500 + $3,408,000 +$159,500,) ÷ (594,000 + $5,193,600 + $414,000) =$3,961,000/$6, 201, 600= 0.638= 0.639

Ending Inventory at Cost: Ending Inventory at Retail x Cost to Retail Ratio

$1,535,600 x 0.639 = $981,248.40

Employees frequently complain about the inconsistent assistance they receive from the HR department due to its large size.

Explanation:

Having a specialized, embedded HR unit is beneficial to each, specific unit, as HR would cater to every department and its special needs. On the contrary, centralized HR tends to give inconsistent help, as they always assign a different person or team when a problem arises.

So, if the employees complained that they cannot receive adequate help from the centralized HR, it would be wise to do what Roberta suggested.

Answer:

$Acumulated value=57,775.84$

Explanation:

this problem can be solved applying the concept of annuity, keep in mind that an annuity is a formula which allows you to calculate the future value of future payments affected by an interest rate.by definition the future value of an annuity is given by:

$s_{n} =P*\frac{(1+i)^{n}-1 }{i}$

where $s_{n}$ is the future value of the annuity, $i$ is the interest rate for every period payment, n is the number of payments, and P is the regular amount paid

But there is an special thing to keep in mind and is the initial payment so we must to calculate the 4,000 in the future so we have:

$Acumulated value=s_{n} +P*(1+i)^{n}$

$Acumulated value=1,500*s_{18} +4,000*(1+0.06)^{18}$

$Acumulated value=57,775.84$

klemol [59]

Answer:

Alex may have to lower the price to convince Clara to buy a second slice.

Explanation:

Marginal utility is an economic concept that says that a consumer recieves more marginal utility in the first consumption of a good or services than in the second and the subsequents. In fact with each consumption the marginal utility reduces, this effect is known as diminishing marginal utility.

One of the the methods to reduce the effects of the diminishing marginal utility is to reduces prices. As the utility of a product decreases as its consumption increases, consumers are willing to pay smaller amount of money for more of the product.
