Answer:

I Disagree

Explanation:

The statement of cash flows is of extreme importance for a company and its stakeholders (especially investors). It shows how activities affecting the balance sheet and the financial statement also affect cash and cash equivalents, and while it is true that the balance sheet has an account under that name, it does not provide enough detail.

The statement of cash flows on the other hand details how much cash the company gets from financing, operating, and investing activities, and from this information, a potential investor can make crucial analysis when determining whether to invest or not.

Answer:

Setup cost (S) = 1800

Holding cost (H) = 2.5

Annual demand (D) = 20000

Daily demand (d) = Annual demand / Number of working days = 20000 bottles/250 = 80 bottles daily

Daily production (p) = 400

a. Given production quantity Q = 10000

Holding cost = 1/2*[(p-d)/p]*QH

Holding cost = ((400-80)/(2*400))*10000 *2.5= 10000

Ordering cost = (D/Q)S = (20000/10000)*1800 = 3600

Total Cost = Annual holding cost + Annual ordering Cost = 10000 + 3600 = 13600

b. Economic production Quantity (EPQ) = Q

Q = √2DS/H √p/p-d

Q = √2*20000*1800/2.5 √400 / 400-80

Q = 6000 bottles

Holding cost = 1/2*[(p-d)/p]*QH

Holding cost = ((400-80)/(2*400))*6000 *2.5= 6000

Ordering cost = (D/Q)S = (20000/6000)*1800 = 6000

Total Cost = Annual Holding cost + Annual ordering cost = 6000 + 6000 = 12000

C. Cost difference between the current production schedule and the EPQ = 13600 - 12000 = 1600

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

b. 800,000

Explanation:

Step 1; Calcualate Excess Valuation of Surge in Piani's Consolidated Balance Sheet

Surge's balance sheet as at November 30, 2013 showed a book value of $8,000,000

However, Piani Purchased 400,000 Shares of Surge's Outstanding Common Stock at $25 each. The total Cost therefore to Piani is

$25× 400,000= $10,000,000

The difference between Surge's book value and Piani's valuation of Surge is

Surge's value in Piani- Surge's book value

$10,000,000-$8,000,000= $2,000,000

Step 2: Calculate the Difference between the Excess Property Fair Value and the Step One Total to arrive at the Goodwill

Out of the $2,000,000; $1,200,000 represents the excess of the fair value of Surge's Property, Plant and Equipment on November 30, 2013.

The Goodwill Value Therefore is

The difference in Surge's Stock Valuation- Excess Fair Value of Surge's Property, Plant and Equipment

= $2,000,000-$1, 200,000

=$800,000
