Answer: b. Current value

Explanation:

The stores are opened at different time periods which means that inflation would make comparison between the values of each store quite difficult if book value were to be used.

It would therefore be best to use the current values of the long-term assets as this would take into account various factors such as inflation. This would ensure that the values being used at the time to compare are reflective of the economic situations on ground.

The Polishing Department of Major Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for September. Materials are
juin [17]

Answer:

<em>a. compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs</em>

materials = 44,500

conversion costs = 40,000

<em>b. compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month</em>

materials = $4.40

conversion = $10.65

<em>c. determine the costs to be assign to the units transferred out in the process</em>

Cost of units transferred out in the process = $594,475

Explanation:

a. compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs

materials

Units Completed and Transferred to Finished Goods (100%×39,500) =39,500

Units in Closing Work In Process (100%×5,000)                                      = 5,000

Total                                                                                                            = 44,500

conversion costs

Units Completed and Transferred to Finished Goods (100%×39,500) =39,500

Units in Closing Work In Process (10%×5,000)                                         =

500

Total                                                                                                            = 40,000

Calculation of Units Completed and Transferred to Finished Goods

1,600+42,900-5,000 = 39,000

b. compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month

materials

Opening Work In Process Costs            =  $20,000

Add Costs Incurred during the Period   = $175,800  

Total                                                          = $195,800

<em>Unit costs for materials = Total Costs / Equivalent units of production for materials</em>

                                       = $195,800 / 44,500

                                       = $4.40

conversion

Opening Work In Process Costs                                                 =  $43,180

Add Costs Incurred during the Period($125,680 + $257,140)  = $382,820  

Total                                                                                              = $426,000

<em>Unit costs for conversion = Total Costs / Equivalent units of production for conversion</em>

                                       = $426,000 / 40,000

                                       = $10.65

c. determine the costs to be assign to the units transferred out in the process

Total Unit Cost Calculation

Materials     = $4.40

Conversion = $10.65

Total            = $15.05

Cost of units transferred out in the process = 39,500 × $15.05

                                                                        = $594,475

A nonprofit group organizes its local fundraisers in teams, with each of its L team leaders responsible for D group directors, a
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Each of L team leaders has D group directors, making the total number of group directors equal to (L)(D). And each of those group directors has F fundraisers, again requiring multiplication: that total is (L)(D)(F). (You can try this by plugging in small numbers - if each of 2 leaders has 3 directors, you know there would be 6 directors)

So while statement 1 is not sufficient (there are multiple combinations that could get you to 81, such as L = 1, D = 2, and F = 39; or L = 1, D = 5, and F = 15), statement 2 guarantees that there is only one team leader. This is because 5 is a prime number, and you know that the number of group directors = LD. The only possible way for LD to equal 5 is if L is 1 and D is 5, or if D is 1 and L is 5. And since the stimulus tells you that there are more directors than leaders, the combination must be 5 directors and 1 leader. Accordingly, statement 2 is sufficient.

Answer:

The answer is Certificate Of Deposit.

Explanation:

A certificate of deposit (CD) refers to a product which is usually offered by banks and credit unions and which provides an interest rate premium based on the condition that the customer agrees to leave a lump-sum deposit untouched for a particular length of time.

Almost all consumer financial institutions offer certificates of deposit, but each bank can set its own peculiar certificate of deposit terms and conditions.
