Answer:
B. n/a (200) 200 200 n/a 200 n/a
Explanation:
A purchase discount is a contra-expense account which has a credit balance. Expenses have normal debit balances, so a credit balance will decrease the expenses incurred by the company.
E.g. you paid $100 within the discount period (2% discount)
Dr Accounts payable 100
Cr Cash 98
Cr Purchase discounts 2
This transaction doe snot affect assets, but it will decrease liabilities by $200 and increase R.E. by $200. Since this is a contra expense account, it will increase revenue and net income. It doesn't generate any additional cash flows.
Answer:
$6.00
Explanation:
Given data
quantity demanded ( x ) ∝ 1 / p^3 for p > 1
when p = $10/unit , x = 64
initial cost = $140, cost per unit = $4
<u>Determine the price that will yield a maximum profit </u>
x = k/p^3 ----- ( 1 ). when x = 64 , p = $10 , k = constant
64 = k/10^3
k = 64 * ( 10^3 )
= 64000
back to equation 1
x = 64000 / p^3
∴ p = 40 / ∛x
next calculate the value of revenue generated
Revenue(Rx) = P(price ) * x ( quantity )
= 40 / ∛x * x = 40 x^2/3
next calculate Total cost of product
C(x) = 140 + 4x
Maximum Profit generated = R(x) - C(x) = 0
= 40x^2/3 - 140 + 4x = 0
= 40(2/3) x^(2/3 -1) - 0 - 4 = 0
∴ ∛x = 20/3 ∴ x = (20/3 ) ^3 = 296
profit is maximum at x(quantity demanded ) = 296 units
hence the price that will yield a maximum profit
P = 40 / ∛x
= ( 40 / (20/3) ) = $6
Answer:
Option (A) A debit to inventory for $200
Explanation:
The entire cost of purchasing products (including the cost of having the inventory shipped to the buyer) is reported as part of the cost of the inventory in a perpetual inventory system.
The entry of paying the charges for shipping is included in debit to inventory for $200 and a credit to cash for $200.
Hence,
The answer is option (A) A debit to inventory for $200
Answer: b.segregation of duties
Explanation:
Segregation of duties as an internal control ensures that there are multiple people doing activities that if left to one person can leave the company at the risk of fraudulent activity. It also helps to reduce the incidence of errors in reporting because more than one person will be cross-checking transactions.
There should be more segregation of duties in this small-town retail store. For instance, the sales clerk should not be responsible for both the counting and comparison to the cash register tape because they could have omitted sales from the machine and then simply taken the money from the cash when counting. A different person should count the cash to see if it tallies with the cash register tape.
1. interest credited in bank account -- add to personal
2. fee charged by bank for returned check -- deduct from personal
3. checks issued but not deposited -- deduct from bank
4. deposits yet to be credited -- add to bank
