Answer:
C. Debit Cost of goods Sold $5,000;
Credit Inventory $5,000
Explanation:
Preparation of the necessary adjusting entry to record inventory shrinkage
Since we assumed that the physical count of inventory showed $158,000 of inventory on hand and the inventory records reported $163,000 the first step to do is to find the difference between the two amount which is ($163,000-$58,000) given us a different of $5,000 which will now be recorded as:
Debit Cost of goods Sold $5,000
(163,000-158,000)
Credit Inventory $5,000

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
The following annual returns for Stock E are projected over the next year for three possible states of the economy. What is the stock’s expected return and standard deviation of returns? E(R) = 8.5% ; σ = 22.70%; mean = $7.50; standard deviation = $2.50
State Prob E(R)
Boom 10% 40%
Normal 60% 20%
Recession
30% - 25%
Answer:
The expected return of the stock E(R) is 8.5%.
The standard deviation of the returns is 22.7%
Explanation:
<u>Expected return</u>
The expected return of the stock can be calculated by multiplying the stock's expected return E(R) in each state of economy by the probability of that state.
The expected return E(R) = (0.4 * 0.1) + (0.2 * 0.6) + (-0.25 * 0.3)
The expected return E(R) = 0.04 + 0.12 -0.075 = 0.085 or 8.5%
<u>Standard Deviation of returns</u>
The standard deviation is a measure of total risk. It measures the volatility of the stock's expected return. The standard deviation (SD) of a stock's return can be calculated by using the following formula:
SD = √(rA - E(R))² * (pA) + (rB - E(R))² * (pB) + ... + (rN - E(R))² * (pN)
Where,
- rA, rB to rN is the return under event A, B to N.
- pA, pB to pN is the probability of these events to occur
- E(R) is the expected return of the stock
Here, the events are the state of economy.
So, SD = √(0.4 - 0.085)² * (0.1) + (0.2 - 0.085)² * (0.6) + (-0.25 - 0.085)² * (0.3)
SD = 0.22699 or 22.699% rounded off to 22.70%
Answer:
d. 101
Explanation:
first we must determine the amount of the loan:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3%)²⁰ = $553.68
PV of coupon payments = $40 x 14.877 (PV annuity factor, 3%, 20 periods) = $595.08
Loan amount = $1,148.76
Future value of the loan = $1,148.76 x (1 + 5%)¹⁰ = $1,871.21
You will receive 20 coupon payments of $40 each, which will be reinvested at 2% semiannual rate. You will also receive $1,000 corresponding to the face value of the bond.
Future value of the coupon payments = $40 x 24.297 (FV annuity factor, 2%, 20 periods)] = $971.88
Total money received at the end of the 10 year period = $971.88 + $1,000 = $1,971.88
Gain = $1,971.88 - $1,871.21 = $100.67 ≈ $101
Answer: The correct answer is "b. production and distribution processes becoming obsolete.".
Explanation: The typical risks of a cost leadership strategy include production and distribution processes becoming obsolete because to maintain cost leadership, the production and distribution processes must always be in constant observation to modify if necessary in order to maintain competitiveness and not remain stuck attached to a production and distribution model that as a consequence of innovations in the competition may become obsolete.
