Explanation:
A financial asset is a non-physical asset that that gets it's value from a contract that was signed by the parties involved. Financial assets include Bonds, stocks and even cash amongst others.
Real Assets on the other hand are physical assets that can be seen and hence have an inherent value. Examples include buildings and cars.
a. Toyota <u>creates</u> a <u>real asset</u>- the factory. The loan is a <u>financial asset </u>that is <u>created</u> in the transaction.
The factory becomes a real Asset that is tangible and has an inherent value. The loan was created by an agreement between Toyota and the bank and so is a Financial Asset.
b. When the loan is repaid, the <u>financial</u> asset is <u>destroyed</u> but the <u>real</u> asset continues to exist.
When the loan is repaid, Toyota no longer owns that financial asset because it has gone back to the bank. However, the Real Asset which is the factory that they were able to build will remain with Toyota.
c. The cash is a <u>financial</u> asset that is traded in exchange for a <u>real</u> asset, inventory.
As already mentioned, cash is a financial asset. Inventory is a tangible substance with an inherent value not determined by a contract and so is a Physical Asset. Trading cash for Inventory is therefore trading a financial asset for a physical one.
Answer:
PV= $1,173.44
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
your tenant has agreed to pay $150 per month. There are eight months left on the lease, the appropriate interest rate is 6%, compounded monthly.
<u>To calculate the net present value, first, we need to calculate the final value and then use the present value formula.</u>
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual pay= 150
i=0.06/12= 0.005
n=8
FV= {140[(1.005^8)-1]}/0.005= 1,221.21
Now, we calculate the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 1,221.21/1.005^8= $1,173.44
In the context of contemporary approaches to management, the sociotechnical systems theory was developed in the early 1950s by researchers from the London-based Tavistock Institute of Human Relations. This sociotechnical theory states that <span>the design and performance of any organisational system can only be understood and improved if both ‘social’ and ‘technical’ aspects are brought together and are working together.</span>
Answer and Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
a)
1. FIFO inventory > LIFO inventory
(Because in case of LIFO recent purchases are considered in production first or sold first so the remaining inventory are old inventory which is less costlier.)
2. FIFO cost of goods sold < LIFO cost of goods sold
(Because in case of LIFO recent purchases are considered in production first which are expensive so the cost of production is greater than FIFO.)
3. FIFO net income > LIFO net income
(Because cost of production is less under FIFO and the value of closing inventory is high, therefore the net income is also high.)
4. FIFO income taxes > LIFO income taxes
(Since, income is high in FIFO, therefore the tax under FIFO will be higher.)
b)
Management would like prefer to use LIFO over FIFO in periods of rising prices because Income shown in the company's Tax return will be higher if we use FIFO rather than using LIFO.
