Answer:

a. $21,725.65

b. $19,385

c. 27,421.32

Explanation:

Savings = 125,000

Annuity Formula :

(\frac{1}{1.07})^{30} [  \frac{125,000}{0.07} ( 1 - \frac{1}{1.07 ^}^{20} ) ] = \frac{A}{0.07} ( 1 - \frac{1}{0.07 ^ } ^{30} )

Solving the equation we get,

A  = $21,725.65

Lawrence Company has cash in bank of $22,000, restricted cash in a separate account of $4,000, and a bank overdraft in an accoun
andre [41]

Answer:

$22,000

Explanation:

It is worth noting that for accounting purposes, restricted cash is one that is not readily available. Such inaccessible funds, therefore, cannot be reported in financial statements. A bank overdraft, on the other hand, is a liability. Lawrence should therefore report cash worth $ 22,000 only.

Confectioners, a chain of candy stores, purchases its candy in bulk from its suppliers. For a recent shipment, the company paid
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

$0.215

Explanation:

The computation of the cost per item in Group 1 is shown below:-

Candy amount paid = $3,100

Item received = 7,100

For Group 1

Sale value = Group 1 units × Selling price

= 2,110 × $0.15

= $316.5

For Group 2

Sale value = Group 2 units × Selling price

= 4,720 × $0.35

= $1,652

For Group 3

Sale value = Group 3 units × Selling price

= 270 × $0.71

= $191.7

= Total sale value = $316.5 + $1,652 + $191.7

= $2,160.2

So, Sale percentage for Group 1 = $316.5 ÷ $2,160.2

= 14.65%

Now, the proportion of cost for Group 1

= $3,100 × 14.65%

= 454.15

Cost per unit = Proportion cost ÷ Group 1 units

= $454.15 ÷ 2,110

= $0.215

The purpose of safety stock is​ to: A. eliminate the possibility of a stockout. B. control the likelihood of a stockout due to v
NeX [460]
<h3>Hello there!</h3>

Your question asks what the purpose of a safety stock is.

<h3>Answer: B). control the likelihood of a stock out due to variable demand​ and/or lead time.</h3>

The reason why answer choice "B). control the likelihood of a stock out due to variable demand​ and/or lead time" is the correct answer because companies have safety stocks to control the chances of having a stock out.

Safety stocks are also known as a "reserve" for a company, in other words, stocks that a company doesn't touch. It's to ensure that companies don't go through a time where there's an increase in demand while there is a "delay" in production.

If a companies stock demand goes up, but then they can't "produce" the amount that is needed to meet the demand, then they will go through "stock out" and have to go through what is called "stock out costs."

Safety stocks are also known as a "rainy-day" stock, due to the fact that safety stocks are used when a company are not having a great day with the "demand" / "value" of their stocks. It's just to "ensure" / "keep the company safe" from a huge stock out.

<h3>I hope this helps!</h3><h3>Best regards, MasterInvestor</h3>
