Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The reserve requirement is 20 percent.

The Fed purchases $100 million of U.S. securities from security dealers.

The excess reserves with banks are zero.  

When fed purchased securities, this open market operation increased the reserves with banks by $100 million.  

The increase in money supply  

= \frac{1}{RR}\times Change\ in\ reserves

= \frac{1}{0.2}\times 100

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct

Explanation:

The payment is made during the discount period of 11 days so the 2% discount rate would be applicable.

Goods purchased =   $112,000

Goods returned = $2,200

Discount =   (Goods purchased - goods returned) × 2%

               = ($112,000 - $2,200) × 2%

               = $2,196

Net purchase = Goods purchased - returned - Discount

                       = $112,000 - $2,200 - $2,196

                       = $107,604

Total inventory cost = Net purchase + Freight cost

                                 = $107,604 + $400

                                 = $108,004

Therefore, company’s inventory increased by $108,004.

An inventory error not only affects the current year's cost of goods sold, gross profit, net income, current assets and equity,
pychu [463]

The correct answer is "ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period."

An inventory error not only affects the current year's cost of goods sold, gross profit, net income, current assets, and equity, but also the next period's statements because ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period.

That is why the manager has to be strict regarding the inventory of a company. Inventory has a cost that can be translated into money. So accountants have to be perfect regarding the inventory. So yes, ann error in keeping the inventory affects the company in that the ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period. An internal audit can reveal the mistakes in accurately keeping the inventory. So it is better to put extra attention in the process so nothing wrong would be revealed after the audit.
