Answer:

The bond that should pay the highest interest rate is:

d. a bond issued by a new restaurant chain.

Explanation:

This is based on the fact that the new restaurant chain is untested, has higher risk profile and the bondholders are assuming higher risks, and the bond cannot be compared to the bonds issued by the US government, New York State, and General Motors, in that order. The new restaurant chain will be offering a higher rate of return than others because it is new to the bond market and would like to attract potential bond investors. Without the higher rate, therefore, it will not be successful in the bond issuance.

Answer: 0

Explanation:

Firstly, we will calculate the nominal value in 2015 which will be:

= $500 x 1 million

= $500 million

The nominal value in 2016 will be:

= $1000 x 1 million

= $1 billion

Real GDP will be the price of the base year multiplied by the quantity of the current year which will be:

= $500 million x 1 million sets

= $500 million

Therefore, the increase in real GDP is zero.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

FIFO : Ending Inventory = $6,000, Cost of Goods Sold = $36,000

LIFO : Ending Inventory = $36,000, Cost of Goods Sold = $28,000

Weighted Average Cost Method : Ending Inventory = $10,500, Cost of Goods Sold = $31,500

Explanation:

FIFO

Assumes that the first goods received by business will be the first ones to be delivered to the final customer.

Ending Inventory

Ending Inventory = Units left × Earliest Price

= 3000 units × $2

= $6,000

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold : 2000 units × $5 = $10,000

6000 units × $4 = $24,000

1000 units × $2 = $2,000

Total = $36,000

LIFO

Assumes that the last goods purchased are the first ones to be issued to the final customer.

Ending Inventory

Ending Inventory 2000 units × $5 = $10,000

6000 units × $4 = $24,000

1000 units × $2 = $2,000

Total = $36,000

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold : 4000 units × $2 = $8,000

5000 units × $4 = $20,000

Total = $28,000

Weighted Average Cost Method

The average cost of goods held is recalculated each time a new delivery of goods is received Issues are then priced out at this weighted average cost.

First Calculate the Average Cost

Average Cost = Total Cost / Total Units

= (2000 × $5 + 6000 × $4 + 4000 × $2) / 12,000

= $42,000 / 12,000

= $3.50

Ending Inventory

Ending Inventory = Units left × Average Price

= 3000 units × $3.50

= $10,500

Cost of goods sold

Ending Inventory = Units Sold × Average Price

= 9,000 units × $3.50

= $31,500
