A method that a home inspector uses in report writing.
Answer:
a. 1.096
Explanation:
The present value index is the same as the profitablility index(PI), which is computed by dividing the present value of future cash inflows by the initial investment(the present value of cash outflows). A profitability of above 1 means that the project is viable as the numerator(PV of cash inflows) exceeds the denominator( initial cash outlay).
Project A PI index= Present value of cash inflows/Present value of cash outflows
Project A PI index= $84,360/$77,000
Project A PI index= 1.096
Answer:
False
Explanation:
In a perfectly competitive market the sales revenue is based on pricing also. As the pricing policy also plays an important role in the marketing technique to attract customers.
As the quality served is generally the same in the market, there is no issue in that but when the price is reduced expected sales will increase and accordingly the expected revenue also increases.
As the sales is expected to increase the revenue will also increase accordingly, even though the price is reduced, due to increase in sales quantity the expected change shall not be same as that of the change in price.
Thus, the statement is False.
Answer:
r = 9.86%
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the future value of an invested amount yielding a compound interest is given by:

where:
FV = future value = $16,000
PV = present value = $10,000
r = interest rate = ?
n = number of compounding period per year = 1
t = time in years = 5
∴ 
dividing both sides by 10,000


to remove the power of 5, we have to take the 5th root of both sides:

Using your calculator:
1.09856 = 1 + r
∴ r = 1.09856 - 1 = 0.09856
r = 0.0986 = 9.86%
∴ r = 9.86%
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The computation of carrying value on the balance sheet of the ending inventory of finished goods under variable costing is seen below;
Before that, we have to determine the unit cost
Unit fixed manufacturing overhead = $120,400 ÷ 6,020 units = $20
Then, the difference will be;
= Unit fixed manufacturing overhead × change in inventory in units
= $20 × (6,020 units - $5,920)
= $20 × 100 units
= $2,000 less than absorption costing
