Answer:
A. The demand of wheat and corn is basically inelastic and so increases in output drastically reduce price and income to the farmers.
Explanation:
Inelastic demand means the change in price does not affect the purchasers' buying power. The difference in price has relatively little effect on the quantity demanded. Since the demand for wheat is inelastic, price and income will reduce irrespective of increasing production. Therefore, harvesting massive production (wheat or corn) does not bring a high income.
Answer:
$38,400
Explanation:
<em>1. Cash Purchases:</em>
The total purchases in the month of March is of $35,000.
It is given that 70% of Purchases are for cash.
Hence, 70% of $35,000 would be;
$39,000 x 0.70
$27,300
<em>2. Credit Purchases:
</em>
Remaining Balance of Purchases from the month of February:
For the month of February Cash Purchases can be calculated as follows;
$37,000 x 0.70
$25,900
Remaining Balance to be paid in March for the month of February can be calculated as follows;
$37,000 - $25,900
$11,100
<em>3. CASH PAYMENT for PURCHASES in MARCH:</em>
Cash Purchases = $27,300
Credit Purchases = $11,100
Hence;
<em>Cash Payment for purchases in March = Cash Purchases + Credit Purchases
</em>
Cash Payment for purchases in March = $27,300 + $11,100
Cash Payment for purchases in March = $38,400
Answer:
Cost of merchandise sold = $ 28
Gross profit = $ 13
The ending inventory under the LIFO method = $ 18
Explanation:
Given:
October 5,
Purchased units = 1
Unit cost = $5
on October 12,
Purchased units = 1
Unit cost = $ 13
On October 28,
Purchased unit = 1
Unit cost = $ 15
Total cost of the 3 units purchased = $33
Now, the unit sold on October 31 will be the unit purchased in the end i.e on October 28
thus,
Cost of merchandise sold = $ 28
Gross profit = Selling price of the unit - Unit price of purchase
or
Gross profit = $ 28 - $ 15 = $ 13
now, the ending inventory under the LIFO method = $ 5 + $ 13 = $ 18
The correct answer is $380 per unit.
The lower-of-cost-or market rule requires that you report the lower value of either the purchase price or current market price of items in inventory. In this case the current market price is lower, so it should be used when calculating the value of inventory.
