Of the 1,600 units sold during the period, 300 were from the beginning inventory; 500 from the first purchase; 600 from the second purchase; and 200 from the last purchase. Using the weighted-average costing method and rounding the average unit cost to the nearest whole cent, the value of the inventory on hand at the end of the period would be
Answer:
$2,650
Explanation:
the first part of the question is missing:
"The following data applies to a particular item of merchandise: On hand at start of period 300 $5.10 1st purchase 500 $5.20 2nd purchase 700 $5.30 3rd purchase 600 $5.50 Number of units available for sale 2,100"
beginning inventory 300 units at $5.10 = $1,530
1st purchase 500 units at $5.20 = $2,600
2nd purchase 700 units at $5.30 = $3,710
3rd purchase 600 units at $5.50 = $3,300
total number of units 2,100
total cost = $11,140
average cost per unit = $5.30
ending inventory = 500
value of ending inventory using average cost = 500 x $5.30 = $2,650

Suzie Smith is a real estate sales associate. She is a top producer and likes to maintain her independence. She sets up her office in her home, independent of the broker. She maintains her own telephone, secretary, administrative assistant and cell phone. She communicates with her broker once a week or he comes to see her at her office. Is this a workable situation?
Answer:
No
Explanation:
Suzie's situation isn't workable because she is meant to be under the direct supervision of her broker no matter what her personal preference for independence.

Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with 18 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling for $780. At this price, the bonds yield 6.9 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?
Answer:
The coupon rate on the bonds is 4.73%
Explanation:
To calculate the coupon rate of the bond, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and annual YTM will be,
Let coupon rate be x.
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * x = 1000x
Total periods (n)= 18
r or YTM = 6.9%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
We will input the values of the available variables.
780 = 1000x * [( 1 - (1+0.069)^-18) / 0.069] + 1000 / (1+0.069)^18
780 = 1000x * (10.13209373) + 300.8855326
780 - 300.8855326 = 1000x * 10.13209373
479.1144674 / 10.13209373 = 1000x
47.28681752 / 1000 = x
x = 0.04728681752 rounded off to 0.0473 or 4.73%
Sandy's Soda Co. is planning an investment in new cooling equipment that would cost $56,000. The new equipment would save on operating costs over the next 5 years as follows: $21,500 in year 1; $23,100 in year 2; $19,000 in year 3; $13,900 in year 4; and $15,200 in year 5.The payback period for the cooling equipment is ______ years.
Answer:
It will take 3 years and 219 days to cover for the initial investment.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $56,000
Cash flow:
$21,500 in year 1
$23,100 in year 2
$19,000 in year 3
$13,900 in year 4
$15,200 in year 5
The payback period is the time required for the cash flow to cover the initial investment.
Year 1= 21,500 - 56,000= -34,500
Year 2= 23,100 - 34,500= -11,400
Year 3= 19,000 - 11,400= 7,600
To be more accurate:
(11,400/19,000)*365= 219
It will take 3 years and 219 days to cover for the initial investment.
Considering the situation described above, the payback period for the cooling equipment is 2.6 years.
The step by step is explained below for better illustration:
Given that Initial investment= $56,000
Where Cash flow in year 1 => $21,500
Cash flow in year 2 => $23,100
Cash flow in year 3 => $19,000
Cash flow in year 4 => $13,900
Cash flow in year 5 => $15,200
Therefore, the payback period is the time required for the cash flow to cover the original investment.
Hence, after two years, $44,600 ($21,500 + $23,100);
The amount left to be paid back is ($56,000 - $44,600) => $11,400
Therefore, $11,400 ÷ $19,000 = 0.6;
Thus, the total payback period is approximately 2.6 years.
