Answer:

Check the explanation as follows.

Explanation:

a) If it is invested in US

Current= $40 million

Interest rate= 0.28% p.m

Interest for 1 month= $40 million*0.28%= $0.112 million

Interest for 3 months= $0.112*3= $0.336 million

Total value after 3 months= $40 million+$0.336 million = $40336000.

b) If it is invested in Great Britain.

Convert $40 million into Pounds= $40 million*0.639 = Pound 25.56 million

Ivest in Great Britain for 3 months @ 0.32%

Interest per month= 25.56 million*0.32% *3 = 0.245376

Total Pounds after 3 months= Pound 25.805376

Convert into $= 25.805376/0.642 = $40195289.7156

Value if invested in great britain= $40195289.7156

Feb 3      Merchandise inventory                   3,300

                            Account payable                                       3,300

Feb 7            Account payable                               900

                    Merchandise inventory                                               900

Feb 9            Merchandise inventory                    400

                      Cash                                                                               400

Feb 10           Account receivable                        4,700

                      Sales revenue                                                             4,700

                       Freight out                                          370

                      Merchandise inventory                                            2,350

                      Cash                                                                             370

Feb 12             Account payable                             2,400

                       Cash                                                                          2,328

                       Merchandise inventory                                                 72

Feb 28             Cash                                                 4,606

                         Sales discount                                      94

                         Account receivable                                               4,700

<h3 /><h3>What are the journal entries?</h3>

When goods are purchased, they will be debited to the Merchandise inventory account. If they were paid for with cash, they will be credited to the cash account. On account is credited to Accounts Payable.

When goods are sold, the cost of goods sold will have to be debited to account for the cost of the purchase that is now being sold.

Because the goods were paid for in the discount period, a 3% discount would apply:

= 2,400 x (1 - 3%)
= $2,328

A 2% discount would apply to the Feb 10. sales for the same reason:
= 4,700 x (1 - 2%)

= $4,606
