Answer:

Number of shares to be issued =  60,000  units

Explanation:

<em>A private placement involves the issue of new shares to a few number of individual and institutional investors. Unlike initial public offering, here the shares are not offered to the general public.</em>

The number of units to be issued is determined as follows

Units to be issued = Total capital to be raised / issue price per share

Number of units to be raised = $1215,000/$20.25 per share= 60,000  units

stira [4]

<em>Answer</em>:

<u>$52,000</u>

Explanation:

Remember, the FIFO inventory costing method records the inventory value based on the cost of the earliest (first) purchased or in hand balance.

The effective tax rate would usually be applied after the sales, however using FIFO we assume the first value of the inventory prior to the tax deduction.

= 4000 x $13

= $52,000

Therefore, the gross profit for the period is $52,000.
