Answer:
The recent loss of 440 manufacturing jobs at Ford Australia has generated a lot of debate about the long-term viability of the Australian car industry, and manufacturing in general. This debate has included arguments that manufacturing is important and needs more government support. It has also seen some commentators argue that Australian’s have no right to expect jobs in manufacturing.
While most of this debate has focused on the automotive manufacturing sector, there is a wider question that needs to be answered. This relates to the issue of whether it is feasible for an advanced economy to grow and prosper without a manufacturing sector?

Explanation:
Scott Company must record the warranty expense and liability regarding the products sold during the years that they occur. For example, the following journal entry must be made to record the warranty expense for year 1:
Dr Warranty expense 25,000
Cr Warranty liability 25,000
During year 2, they will record the warranty expense for that year:
Dr Warranty expense 20,000
Cr Warranty liability 20,000
That means that during year 3, the only warranty expense recorded will be the one related to the goods sold during that year.
Answer:
Ending inventory : $868
Explanation:
FIFO (First-In-First-Out) is a method of inventory valuation where the inventory that is received first is sold first. In other words, the earliest inventory is used first. This is common for perishable inventory such as fruits and vegetables which if not used fast, will be wasted.
01/01/21 : Beginning Inventory : 200 units x $5 = $1000
01/15/21 : Purchases : 100 units x $5.3 = $530
01/28/21 : Purchases : 100 units x $5.5 = $550
Total units = 200 + 100 + 100 = 400 units
Units sold = Total inventory available for sale - ending inventory
= 400 - 160 = 240 units.
COGS:
Beginning Inventory : 200 units x $5 = $1000
Purchases : 40 units x $5.3 = $212
Cost of goods sold : $1000 + $212 = $1212
Ending inventory:
Purchases : (100 - 40) units x $5.3 = $318
Purchases : 100 units x $5.5 = $550
Ending inventory : $318 + $550 = $868
Answer:
Elastic demand
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand is described as the sensitivity of demand to changes in its price. A product is price elastic when a small change in prices causes a significant change in quantity demanded. If a small change in price results in minimal impact in quantity demanded, the product is price inelastic.
Steel mill raised its prices by 7 percent. As a result, the demand declined by 20 percent. The demand decreased by a bigger rate than the change in price. It means a small change in price causes the demand to change significantly. Therefore, the demand curve is price elastic.
