Answer:

58.9

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what would the forecast for the next period be using exponential smoothing

Next period forecast= [ (1 - Alpha) × Current forecast]+Alpha*Actual demand

Let plug in the formula

Next period forecast= [ ( 1 - 0.3 ) × 58] +0.3*61

Next period forecast=40.6+18.3

Next period forecast=58.9

Therefore what would the forecast for the next period be using exponential smoothing is 58.9

The balances in Sanchez Accounting Services' office supplies account on February 1 and February 28 were $1,100 and $475, respect
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

$575

Explanation:

Given that,

Opening office supplies = $1,100

Closing office supplies = $475

Office supplies expense for the month = $1,200

Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock = Consumption

$1,100 + Purchases - $475 = $1,200

$625 + Purchases = $1,200

Purchases = $1,200 - $625

                  = $575

Therefore, the amount of office supplies was purchased during February is $575.

Cox Co. accounts for its inventory using the LIFO cost method. An inventory loss from a permanent market decline of $360,000 occ
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

$360,000

Explanation:

Last in first out (LIFO) is a method used in inventory where the cost of most recently purchased goods is the one to be expensed first. Also current losses are the first to be reported.

An inventory loss incurred in a quarter must not be deferred, but recorded as items within an interim must be reported in the same period they were incurred, unless it can be redeemed before the end of the fiscal year. It is not considered a temporary item.

The loss reported in May will be reported for that quarter in June.
