Answer:

c. 60%.

Explanation:

Calculation for what the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:

First step is to calculate the Ending WIP

Ending WIP = 5,000 - 3,500

Ending WIP = 1,500 units

Now let calculate the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion using this formula

Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completio

4,400 = 3,500 + (x% * 1,500)

4,400 = 3,500 + 15x

15x = 4,400 - 3,500

15x = 900

x = 900/15

x = 60%

Therefore the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:60%

Answer:

a. Office Supplies Expense a/c Dr. $750

Explanation:

We are provided that office supplies are recorded as an expense, in that case entry will be:

Office Supplies Expense A/c Dr.

                 To Cash A/c

After this, there is a valuation of closing balance of supplies in hand.

As per books = $4,000

As per inventory of supplies in hand = $4,750

The difference = $4,750 - $4,000 = $750

This will be recorded in Office supplies expense as in this account only the supplies are recorded.

Therefore correct option is

a. Office Supplies Expense a/c Dr. $750

You want to buy a new sports coupe for $74,400, and the finance office at the dealership has quoted you a loan with an apr of 6.
NeX [460]
Monthly payment = $1774.71 
Effective annual rate = 7.02% 
 The equation for a loan payment is
 P = r(PV)/(1-(1+r)^(-n))
 where
 P = Payment per period
 PV = Present value
 r = interest rate per period
 n = number of periods 
 Since the 6.8% interest rate is APR, we need to divide by 12 to get the interest per month. So in the above equation r = 0.068/12 = 0.005666667, the number of periods is 48 and the Present Value is 74400. Let's plug in the numbers and calculate.
 P = r(PV)/(1-(1+r)^(-n))
 P = 0.00566666666666667(74400)/(1-(1+0.00566666666666667)^(-48))
 P = 421.6/(1-(1.00566666666666667)^(-48))
 P = 421.6/(1-0.762439412691304)
 P = 421.6/0.237560587308696
 P = 1774.70516
 So the month payment rounded to 2 decimal places is $1774.71 
 The effective interest rate is
 ER = (1 + r/12)^12 - 1 
 Let's plug in the numbers and calculate.
 ER = (1 + 0.068/12)^12 - 1
 ER = (1 + 0.00566666666666667)^12 - 1
 ER = (1.00566666666666667)^12 - 1
 ER = 1.07015988024972 - 1
 ER = 0.07015988024972 = 7.015988024972% 
 So after rounding, the effective interest rate is 7.02%
