Answer:

(a) FIFO

Cost of Goods Sold  = $6,800

Ending Inventory  = $12,230

(b) LIFO

Cost of Goods Sold  = $7,400

Ending Inventory  = $11,630

(c) weighted average cost

Cost of Goods Sold  = $7,040

Ending Inventory  = $11,990

Explanation:

Perpetual inventory method ensures that cost of sales and inventory value is determined after each and every transaction.

FIFO

This method assumes that the units to arrive first, will be sold first. This means the cost of sales is based on the earlier (old) prices and inventory valuation is based on recent (later) prices.

Cost of Goods Sold = 400 x $7 + 400 x $10 = $6,800

Ending Inventory = 200 x $10 + 930 x $11 = $12,230

LIFO

This method assumes that the units to arrive last , will be sold first. This means the cost of sales is based on the recent (later) prices  and inventory valuation is based on earlier (old) prices.

Cost of Goods Sold = 600 x $10 + 200 x $7 = $7,400

Ending Inventory = 200 x $7 + 930 x $11 = $11,630

Weighted Average Cost Method

A new unit cost is calculated with each and every purchase made. This new unit cost is then used to determine the cost of goods sold and the value of inventory.

New Unit Cost - 8 jan = (400 x $7 + 600 x $10) ÷ 1,000 = $8.80

New Unit Cost - 29 jan = (200x $8.80 + 930 x $11) ÷ 1,130 = $10.61

therefore,

Cost of Goods Sold = 800 x $8.80 = $7,040

Ending Inventory = 1,130 x $10.61 = $11,990

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Given that,

Salaries = $100,000

FICA taxes withheld = $7,650

Income taxes withheld = $18,000

Federal unemployment taxes = $450

State unemployment taxes = $2,100

Therefore,

Payroll Tax Expense:

= FICA taxes withheld + Federal unemployment taxes + State unemployment taxes

= $7,650 + $450 + $2,100

= $10,200

The journal entry is as follows:

Payroll Tax Expense A/c                 Dr. $10,200

To FICA taxes withheld                                          $7,650

To Federal unemployment taxes                           $450

To State unemployment taxes                               $2,100

BigorU [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is Increase in accounts payable and unearned fees.

Explanation:

An account payable consists of a debt incurred by the company directly related to the economic activity of the company. An account payable is a debtor account in a company and indicates that it has to pay its suppliers (or other creditors).

The amounts that are accounted for as accounts payable come from the purchase of goods or services in terms of credit. So, accounts payable are similar to credits with the difference that banks are not involved.
