Answer is A
Explanation: Consumer surplus actually happens when a customer is willing and ready to pay for a particular product than its current market price. It is a measure of the additional benefits a consumer gets after paying for a product even though they are willing to pay more.
For example: Let's assume you want to get a IPhone 8 plus and you value it at $800 dollars, which you are ready to pay, but realise it is sold at $700. When you buy it at $700, the customer surplus is $100, that is a difference between how much you were willing to pay and the price you eventually got it.
Consumer Surplus changes as the equilibrium price of a good rises or falls. If the price of a good rises, the consumer surplus decreases but when the price of the good falls, the consumer surplus increases.
Answer:
a. Overstates Year 1 cost of goods sold.
b. Understates Year 1 net income
c. Understates Year 2 cost of goods sold
Explanation:
a. The formula for Calculating the Cost of Goods sold is;
<em>Cost of Goods Sold = Opening inventory + Purchases - Closing inventory.</em>
If the closing inventory is understated, it will reduced the amount being subtracted from Purchases and Opening inventory which would means that Cost of Goods sold will be overstated.
b. The Cost of goods sold is deducted from sales to give Gross profit. If Cost of goods is overstated, it will reduce Gross Profit higher than it should. A lower Gross Profit equates to a lower Net Income.
c. Going by the formula in <em>a;</em>
<em>Cost of Goods Sold = Opening inventory + Purchases - Closing inventory.</em>
In Year 2, the understated Year 1 closing stock will become the understated Year 2 Opening stock. With the opening stock understated, the Cost of goods will be understated as well because Opening stock is meant to increase Cost of goods sold as the formula shows. If it is understated, the amount that it will add will be understated as well.

When identical units of an item are purchased at different costs: <span>an inventory cost flow method must be used under both a perpetual and a periodic inventory system.
A perpetual inventory system will update your inventory on hand after each sale or purchase of inventory is made. A periodic inventory system is updated periodically, meaning, a company will give a time period they would like their sales and purchases to update in and the system will perform that. Both systems are great for a business but it's their option of how they are generated.
