Answer:
1. "Would you consider these mixers to be inventory or should they be classified as supplies or equipment?" Why?
The mixers will be part of merchandise inventory since Mei-ling is purchasing them and will later resell them at a higher price and hopefully make a profit. Products classified as supplies or equipment are used by the company in their day to day activities and are not meant for resale.
2. "I’ve learned a little about keeping track of inventory using both the perpetual and the periodic systems of accounting for inventory. Which system do you think is better? Which one would you recommend for the type of inventory that I want to sell?"
The perpetual inventory system is much better than the periodic inventory system, but it is also more expensive to use. Depending on the number of mixers that are going to be sold, you can do it hand or use a computer software which would make things much easier, but you need to spend time (labor) and money to do so.
If Mei-ling is expecting to sell only a small number of mixers, then she could use a periodic inventory system which is much more simple and is only updated every certain period of time (monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually). This is a cheaper system but it is the best alternative.
3. "How often do I need to count inventory if I maintain it using the perpetual system? Do I need to count inventory at all?"
Even if you use the perpetual inventory system, you will eventually need to physically count your inventory in order to make sure that the records have been properly made, but you could do it once or twice a year. Again it depends on the total units that she expects to have in inventory.

Answer:
C) 12.5%
Explanation:
The computation of the return on equity is shown below
Return on equity is
= net income ÷ equity
where,
equity is
= Total assets - total liabilities
= $500,000 - $100,000
= $400,000
Now the return on equity is
= $50,000 ÷ $400,000
= 12.50%
Hence, the return on equity is 12.50%
Therefore the corredct option is c.

Taxable income is the income (revenue) given on tax. It is payable, in other words, it is the tax paid for being paid.
Example:
You get $40
You need to pay 5% to tax
5% of 40
.05*40 = 2
2 is the tax, so,
40 - 2 = 38
Your revenue is 38 now, and taxable income is 2
