Poppy co. uses a periodic inventory system. Beginning inventory on January one was understated by $30,000, and its ending inventory on December thirty-one was understated by $17,000. A purchase of merchandise costing $20,000 was incorrectly recorded as a $2,000 purchase. None of these errors were discovered until the next year. As a result, Prunedale's cost of goods sold for this year was: Understated by $31,000.

a. Inventory, Beginning 4,000 $ 20 80,000

b. Purchase, March 5 10,000 21 210,000

c. Purchase, September 19 6,000 23 138,000

d. Sale, April 15 4,500 65 292500

e. Sale, October 31 9,000 68 612000

f. Operating expenses $615,000

Ending Inventory Units 6,500

Cost of Good Available for Sale = 80,000+ 210,000+ 138,000= $428,000

The number of units in ending inventory = Beginning + Purchases - Sales

=4000+ 10,000+ 6000- 4,500- 9,000

= 6500

FIFO cost of ending inventory $ 148500

6,000 units at $ 23 =$138,000

500 units at $ 21= $ 10500

FIFO cost of goods sold = Sales - FIFO Ending Inventory

= $ 904500- $ 148500= $ 756000

LIFO cost of ending inventory $ 132500

4,000 units at $ 20 =$80,000

2500 units at $ 21= $ 52500

LIFO cost of goods sold = Sales - LIFO Ending Inventory

= $ 904500- $ 132500= $ 772000

Weighted cost of ending inventory = ($428,000/20,000)*6500= $ 139100

Weighted cost of goods sold = Sales - Weighted Ending Inventory

=$ 904500-$ 139100= $765400

At Mattress Store, Nate signs a contract to buy bedroom furniture. The contract sets a schedule of $500 monthly payments, subjec

Anettt [7]

Nate finds the language of the contract to buy bedroom furniture difficult to understand due to "procedural unconscionability".

<h3>What is procedural unconscionability?</h3>

Unconscionability that results from the contract-making process rather than from a contract's terms that are inherently unfair or unreasonable

Examples of Procedural Unconscionability is-

influencing an underprivileged party who would not have otherwise signed the contract to do so.
minimising important clauses in contracts for the sake of the underdog.
If one side uses threats of violence against the other party, his family, or friends, this is known as coercion.

Therefore, Procedural unconscionability is based on elements that deprive a party of a meaningful choice, such as customer ignorance or a significant amount of unclear fine print.

____ [38]

Answer:

$2.51 per unit

Explanation:

The computation of the cost per equivalent unit is shown below:

But before that the equivalent units is to be computed

Equivalent units = units completed + equivalents units in ending inventory

= 8,400 units + (13,200 units × 42%)

= 13,944 units

Now

Cost per equivalent unit = cost incurred ÷ equivalent units

= $34,980 ÷ 13,944 units

= $2.51 per unit

spayn [35]

Answer:

$3,860 will be needed to put into a tax-deferred retirement account every year if you plan on retiring in 40 years

Explanation:

Use Following formula to calculate the monthly payment required.

FV = P x [ ( ( 1 + r )^n ) - 1 ) / r ]

FV = Future Value = $1,000,000

R = RATE OF RETURN = 8%

N = NUMBER OF YEARS = 40 YEARS

P = Monthly Payment

$1,000,000 = P x [ ( ( 1 + 0.08 )^40 ) - 1 ) / 0.08 ]

$1,000,000 = P x [ ( ( 1.08 )^40 ) - 1 ) / 0.08 ]

$1,000,000 = P x 259.06

P = $1,000,000 / 259.06

P = $3,860.16
