Answer: AVERAGE COST = $60.50

Explanation:

January 1:

Inventory unit = 600

Cost per unit = $55

Total cost = $33,000

January 10:

Purchased inventory unit = 1000

Cost per unit = $59

Total = $59,000

January 12:

Unit sold = 1200

January 20:

Purchased inventory unit = 800

Cost per unit = $62

Total = $49,600

Average cost of inventory prior to January 12 sales :

[Cost(January 1) + Cost(January 10)] ÷ unit (January 1) + unit(January 10)

= $(33,000 + 59,000) ÷ (600 +1000)

= $92,000 ÷ 1600 = $57.50

Sales made on January 12: 1200 units

Total units left in inventory :

1600 - 1200 = 400 units

Average cost of inventory after January 20 inventory purchase:

(Unit × cost per unit) ÷ total unit

Average cost =[ (400 × $57.50) + (800 × $62)] ÷ (400 + 800)

Average cost = ($23,000 + $49,600) ÷ 1200

Average cost = $(72,600 ÷ 1200) =

$60.50

Answer:

the average cost per unit that should be used to determine the cost of the units sold on January 28 is $ 59.00

Explanation:

The Weighted Average Cost Method calculates the new cost of Inventory with each purchase of Inventory.

The Perpetual Inventory System records the cost of inventory sold with each sale made.

<u>Calculation of  the new cost of Inventory with each purchase of Inventory :</u>

January 10:

Cost per Unit = Total Cost / Total Number of Units

Cost per Unit = (( 600 units × $55 per unit ) + ( 1000 units × $59 per unit )) / 1600 units

                      = $ 57.50

January 20:

Cost per Unit = Total Cost / Total Number of Units

Cost per Unit = (( 1600 units × $57.50 per unit ) + ( 800 units × $62 per unit )) / 2400 units

                      = $ 59.00

There were no further purchases from this point

Thus cost per units remains at $ 59.00

Therefore the average cost per unit that should be used to determine the cost of the units sold on January 28 is $ 59.00

The nth term of the GP is (-1)^n(2)^n.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

-2, 4 and -8

Explanation:

Given the nth term of a GP expressed as;

a_n = (-1)^n(2)^n

When n = 1

a_1 = (-1)^1(2)^1\\a_1 = -1 * 2\\a_1 = -2\\

when n = 2

a_2 = (-1)^2(2)^2\\a_2 = 1 * 4\\a_2 = 4\\

when n = 3

a_3 = (-1)^3(2)^3\\a_3 = -1 * 8\\a_3 = -8\\

Hence the first three terms of the sequence are -2, 4 and -8
