Answer: $65

Explanation: Under the FIFO method, that is, first in first out method inventory is recorded on the assumption that the goods that were purchased first will also be sold first and the remaining inventory will have the latest purchased units.

Hence,

Gross profit = $240 - ($80 + $95)

                    = $65

Answer:

The amount to be reported as the cost of the land is  $101,000

Explanation:

Given information

Paid cash - $90,000

Cost of property $7,600

Salvaged materials - $1,700

Attorney's fee for work concerning the land purchase -  $1,100

Real estate broker's fee -  $4,000

Architect's fee - $7,800    

Put in driveways and a parking lot - $14,000

For computing the amount of the cost of the land, the Architect's fee and Put in driveways and a parking lot is not considered as it is not related to the land expenses. The computation is shown below

= Cash amount + Cost of property - Salvaged materials + Attorney's fee + Real estate broker's fee

= $90,000 + $7,600 - $1,700 + $1,100 + $4,000

= $101,000

Thus, the amount to be reported as the cost of the land is  $101,000

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": legislation cannot repeal basic economic motives.

Explanation:

Government price controls are regulations imposed by the central government of a country to set limits on prices of certain goods or services because of a surplus, shortage or simply to maintain the demand and supply of those products at their equilibrium level.  

However, the demand for some of those products could be unpredictable because individuals could react in opposite directions even if the government has set rules against consumers' favor. <em>Customers' motives might not be always repealed by legislation</em>.
