Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

ABC classification scheme refers to item analysis that is based upon the principle that there are many less critical items and few critical items by dividing on-hand inventory into three classes which is generally based upon annual dollar volume as follows:

"A items" have very tight control and accurate records

"B items" does not have a tight control and good records

"C items" have minimal records, periodic review, and and characterized by simple controls.

From the above explanation, it is therefore <u>true</u> that periodic review systems are best suited for the C category of items under the ABC classification scheme.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

$15.43

Explanation:

Following actions are required for triangular arbitrage:

Available: $ 10,000

Buy sterling pound @ 1 $ = 1.62 pounds and receive pounds 6172.84 upon conversion.

Now, sell these pounds and purchase NZ $ at the rate :

1 pound = NZ $ 2.95 and receive NZ$ 18209.87

Now, reconvert the above proceeds into US $ at the rate

1 NZ $ = $0.55 i.e sell NZ $ at this rate and receive US $ 10,015.4285

Hence profit from implementing triangular arbitrage is $10,015.43 - $10,000

= $15.43

Arbitrage refers to the prospect of earning a profit by utilizing the mispricing in two different financial markets. An arbitrageur never uses his own funds and always borrows.

Arbitrage works only in the scenario wherein the interest rate purchase parity (IRPT) does not hold good.

The strategy of arbitrage is best explained as "Buy at low price and sell at a high price".

Variable Costing—Production Exceeds Sales Fixed manufacturing costs are $44 per unit, and variable manufacturing costs are $100

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

a. The variable costing operating income is less than absorption costing operating income.

b. The difference in variable costing and absorption costing operating income is:

= $739,200.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Fixed manufacturing costs per unit = $44

Variable manufacturing costs per unit = $100

Production units = 67,200

Sales units = 50,400

Ending inventory = 16,800

Income Statements Variable Absorption

Costing Costing

Costs of goods sold: $5,040,000 $7,257,600

Fixed expenses 2,956,800

Total costs $7,996,800 $7,257,600 $739,200

b) The difference in variable costing and absorption costing operating income is because of the absorbed fixed costs in ending inventory, which is now carried forward to the next accounting period.

Assuming that the physical output (i.e., the actual quantity of all final goods and services) of all final goods and services re

joja [24]

Answer:

a) true

Explanation:

A rise in the general price level is called inflation and it affects the nominal value of the company's output. E.g. you sell pants and last year they sold at $10 and now since inflation rate is 10%, they sell at $11. But inflation only affects nominal values, it doesn't affect real values which are calculated using a base price of a certain year X, times the quantity sold. Following the example, your real output would not be $11 per pair of pants, instead it would still remain at $10 since the inflation is discounted.

frutty [35]

Answer:

Hence, the weighted average cost of capital is 15.87%.

Explanation:

We have to find current weights,

Value of equity = Shares x Share price = 0.2 x 10 = $2 million

Face Value of Bonds FV = $1 million

Semi annual coupon P = 1 x 8% / 2 = $0.04 million

Number of coupons remaining n = 5 x 2 = 10

Semi annual yield r = 13.65% / 2 = 6.825%

Value of Debt = Px [1 - (1 + r)-n] / r + FV / (1 + r)n

= 0.04 x [1 - (1 + 0.06825)-10] / 0.06825 + 1 / (1 + 0.06825)10

= $0.8 million

Total Value = 2 + 0.8 = $2.8 million

Weight of Debt = 0.8 / 2.8 = 28.57%

Weight of Equity = 2 / 2.8 = 71.45%

Amount of Debt to be raised = Weight of debt x Capital

= 0.2857 x 7.5

= $2.14 million

Since the amount of debt to be raised is less than $2.5 million, the yield will be 13.65%

Cost of Equity = Risk Free Rate + Beta x (Market Return - Risk Free Rate)

= 3% + 2.2 x (10 - 3)

= 18.4%

The weighted average cost of capital:-

WACC = Weight of Debt x Cost of Debt x (1 -Tax Rate) + Weight of Equity x Cost of Equity

= 0.2857 x 13.65% x (1 - 0.3) + 0.7145 x 18.4%

= 15.87%
