Jan 1. Beginning inventory: 53 units x $45 = $2385
Total
53 units x $45 = $2385
Apr 7. Purchase 133 units x $47 = $6251
Total
53 units x $45 = $2385
133 units x $47 = $6251
Jul 16. Purchase 203 units x $50 = $10150
Total
53 units x $45 = $2385
133 units x $47 = $6251
203 units x $50 = $10150
Oct 6. Purchase 113 units x $51 = $5763
53 units x $45 = $2385
133 units x $47 = $6251
203 units x $50 = $10150
113 units x $51 = $5763
1. Ending inventory = 502 - 433 = 69 hence,
69 units x $51 = $3519
2. Cost of Goods Sold =
[$2385 + $6251 + $10150 + (44 units x $51)] = $21030
OR $24549 - 3519 = $21030
3. Sales Revenue =
433 units x $63 = $27279
4. Gross Profit = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold hence,
$27279 - 21030 = $6249
Answer:
6 salespersons
Explanation:
A histogram shows the graphical representation of the distribution of numerical data using bars of different lengths.
From the histogram:
The number of salespersons who sold 11 - 12 packages = 1
The number of salespersons who sold 13 - 14 packages = 2
The number of salespersons who sold 15 - 16 packages = 3
Therefore the new agents who sold more than 10 vacation packages = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 salespersons
Answer:
C. A risk averse investor would choose the economy in which stock returns are independent because risk can be diversified away in a large portfolio.
Explanation:
if stock prices move together, (positive correlation), the volatility of the portfolio will be higher. Higher volatility means higher risk. This is the case with the first economy.
In the second economy however, the stocks are independent of each other meaning there is zero correlation between stocks and hence the portfolio volatility will be much lesser.
As a risk-averse investor you will prefer the portfolio with lower volatility for the same expected return.
