Answer:

The change should you expect in operating cash flows next year would be 19.60%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the change should you expect in operating cash flows next year given your sales forecast we would have to make the following calculation:

change should you expect in operating cash flows=operating leverage rating*percentage of decrease sales next year

change should you expect in operating cash flows=2.8*0.07

change should you expect in operating cash flows=19.60%

The change should you expect in operating cash flows next year would be 19.60%

Crystal Apple Sales Company began 2014 with cash of $2,000, inventory of $3,600 (200 crystal apples that cost $18 each), $2,500
Andru [333]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold = (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × (2,040-200-800)

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $24,960

= $44,560

Ending Inventory Under FIFO = (1,200 - 1,040) × (2,040-200-800)

= 160 × $24

= $3,840

Under LIFO method

Cost of goods sold is

= (1,200 × $24) + (800 × $20) + (40 × $18)

= $28,800 + $16,000 + $720

= $45,520

Ending Inventory Under LIFO is

= (200 - 40) × $18

= 160 × $18

= $2,880

Weighted Average cost flow Assumption

Weighted Average cost per apple = Cost of Beginning inventory and purchase ÷ Total apple available

Cost of Beginning inventory and purchases is

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,200 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $28,800

= $48,400

Total apples available is

= 200 + 800 + 1,200

= 2,200  

Weighted Average cost per apple is

= $48,400 ÷ 2,200

= $22

Cost of goods sold is  

= 2,040 × $22

= $44,880

Ending Inventory is

= 160 × $22

= $3,520

b. The Preparation of income statement, a balance sheet, and a statement of cash flows under each of the three cost flow assumptions is prepared below:-

Income Statement                       Amount

Sales (2,040 × $40)                     $81,600

Less: Cost of goods sold            ($44,560)

Gross Profit                                  $37,040

Less: Operating Expenses         ($26,000)

You are in a car accident, and you receive an insurance settlement of $5,000 per year for the next 3 years. The first payment is
fomenos

Answer:

Explanation:

Present value is found by discounting future values using a discount/interest rate.

Current year PV of $5000 is $5000.

A year in future PV is $5000/(1+r)^n which is $5000/(1.06)^1

= $4,716.98 is what $5000 in a year from now is worth.

Two years in future is $5000/(1+r)^r which will now be $5000/(1.06)^2

= $4,449.98 is what $5000 two years from now is worth today.

Add all figures up to get your Present value.

=5000 + 4,716.98 + 4,449.98

= $14,166.96 is the present value.
