Answer:
Higher
Explanation:
The formula to compute the inventory turnover ratio is show below:
= Cost of goods sold ÷ average inventory
where,
Average inventory = (Opening balance of inventory + ending balance of inventory) ÷ 2
It shows a relation between the cost of goods sold and the average inventory which is shown above.
The more long sales request will higher the inventory turnover ratio and therefore inventory turnover ratio is performing better
Jan. 1Purchased a small company and recorded goodwill of $177,000. Its useful life is indefinite. May 1Purchased for $144,000 a patent with an estimated useful life of 6 years and a legal life of 19 years. Prepare necessary adjusting entries at December 31 to record amortization required by the events above.
Answer:
The Journal entries are as follows:
(i) On December 31,
No entry
(ii) On December 31,
Amortization expense A/c Dr. $16,000
To Patents A/c $16,000
(To record the amortization expenses)
Workings:
Amortization expense:
= (Purchasing cost of patent ÷ Estimated useful life) × Time period
= ($144,000 ÷ 6) × (8/12)
= $24,000 × (8/12)
= $16,000
To record amortization at December 31, no entry is needed for goodwill due to its indefinite life. For the patent, an adjusting entry debits Amortization Expense and credits Patent Accumulated Amortization for $16,000, reflecting 8 months of amortization.
The question deals with recording amortization for both goodwill and a patent according to the events described. Goodwill, with an indefinite life, is not amortized but may be subject to impairment tests. The patent, however, has a definite useful life over which it should be amortized.
Adjusting Entries at December 31
No amortization entry is required for goodwill since its life is indefinite. It should be reviewed annually for impairment.
For the patent purchased on May 1 for $144,000 with a 6-year useful life, the annual amortization expense would be $24,000 ($144,000 / 6 years). However, since the patent was purchased partway through the year, only 8 months (May through December) of amortization should be recorded for the first year. This amounts to $16,000 ($24,000 × 8/12 months).
The necessary adjusting entry for the patent on December 31 is to debit Amortization Expense for $16,000 and credit Patent Accumulated Amortization for $16,000.

Josh, Inc. is faced with the choice of either producing a newly designed product, XX-30, to stock in anticipation of demand or to customer order. The demand for the product is expected to be 5,000 units per week. Josh decided to produce XX-30 in lots of 500 units. The cost of holding the average unit in inventory per year is $50 times the average inventory level. If Josh, Inc. produces to order, it must discount its unit price on all sales $5 for each week that the first customer to order has to wait before the product is delivered. Should Josh, Inc. produce to stock or to order?
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Make to stock
Average inventory = Order quantity/2 = 500/2 = 250
Inventory holding cost = average inventory multiplied by unit holding rate = 250 *5 = 1250
2. Make to order
Discount = 5000*5 = 25000
It is better to stock and produce because costs are low
According to the provisions of the _____, publically listed companies now must allow shareholders to vote on executive compensation.
Answer:
According to the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, publically listed companies now must allow shareholders to vote on executive compensation.
Explanation:
In the aftermath of the financial crises of 2008, shareholders of public companies were given the right to vote or in short have their say on executive compensation matters or rules framed by the directors.
The said rule conferred a right on the shareholders to vote once in three years on executive compensation so as to keep excessive compensation to executives in check.
The companies in such a scenario ain't bound by such votes but such a right to shareholders represents their outlook on the decisions made by the Board.

Answer:
for sixth tasks, she will spend 77% of 5.98 minutes =`4.60 minutes
Explanation:
Mary Catherine is a recent employee
initial time requires 17 minutes to complete a task
as she get use to the task, her experiences a learning rate is found to be 77% for each task,
how much time will it take her to complete the sixth task?
Now, we need to calculate per task
the first task, she spend 17 minutes
for second tasks, she will spend 77% of 17 minutes =
= 0.77 * 17 = 13.09 minutes
for third tasks, she will spend 77% of 13.09 minutes =
= 0.77 * 13.09 minutes = 10.08 minutes
for fourth tasks, she will spend 77% of 10.08 minutes =
== 0.77 * 10.08 minutes = 7.76 minutes
for fifth tasks, she will spend 77% of 7.76 minutes =
== 0.77 * 7.76 minutes = 5.98 minutes
for sixth tasks, she will spend 77% of 5.98 minutes =
== 0.77 * 5.98 minutes = 4.60 minutes

Answer:
a. the law of supply.
Explanation:
This pay scale agrees with the law of supply, which states that the higher the price, the higher the supply. We will observe that the higher the pay scale the higher the number of hours worked per week.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The law of supply
The law of supply is basic and fundanental microeconomic law which, butresses the fact that, other factors being equal and constant, any increase in the price of a good or service increases automatically makes the quantity of goods or services that suppliers offer will increase, and it is the same vice versa. The law of supply says that as the price of an item increases, suppliers will attempt to maximize their profits by increasing the quantity offered for sale.

Many partnerships provide for the admission of new partners or withdrawals of present partners in the partnership agreement so that the firm may continue to operate without executing a new agreement.
True/False
Answer:
The statement is: False.
Explanation:
A partnership is an organization where two or more owners operate a business. They share the profits in proportion to their percentage partnership interest. There are two types of partnerships: general partnerships (unlimited liability) and limited partnerships (the liability is proportional to the amount of the money the partners contribute to the partnership).
If one of the partners retires, wants to exit the partnership, passes away or if a new partner will be added, the partnership is dissolved and a new partnership is formed.
It is true that partnerships often include provisions for adding or removing partners in their agreements, which allows the business to continue without creating a new agreement. This flexibility makes partnerships manageable and capable of adapting to changes in ownership.
True, many partnerships provide for the admission of new partners or withdrawals of present partners in the partnership agreement so that the firm may continue to operate without executing a new agreement. This is often stipulated in the partnership paperwork, allowing for a more efficient business operation and the ability to easily attract investors or address the withdrawal of existing partners. Partnerships are a flexible form of business, which can be an advantage, as they allow existing partners to manage transitions without dissolving the business entity.
There are several positive aspects of a partnership: it is straightforward to start up a business with a partnership agreement, partnerships are easy to manage, and there are no special taxes on partnerships. Additionally, partnerships can hire additional employees to support the growth of the business.
However, the main disadvantage of partnerships is the joint responsibility for each partner's actions. If one partner defaults on their responsibilities or makes poor decisions, other partners may be held accountable, potentially affecting the firm's continuity and finances. This risk emphasizes the importance of clearly outlined terms in the partnership agreement regarding the addition or withdrawal of partners.
The opportunity cost of being a full-time student at a university instead of working full-time at a job includes all of the following EXCEPT:
a. Payment for meals
b. Payment for tuition
c. Payments for books
d. Income from the full-time job
Answer:
a.Payment for meals
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is referred to as the next best alternative.
Opportunity cost means the benefits foregone of the non chosen alternative when an alternative is chosen from the available set of options which includes the non chosen option.
For e.g storage of money at home has an opportunity cost in the form of loss of interest had the same money been invested elsewhere apart from assuming the risk of loss of theft.
In the given case, the opportunity cost of being a full time student at a university instead of working full time at a job includes the opportunity cost in the form of income from that full time job in addition to specific expenses incurred for being a full time student such as Payment for tuition, Payment for books.
Thus, payment for meals represents a common cost which would've been incurred anyway irrespective of whether one attends full time college or does a full time job.
The opportunity cost of being a full-time student includes tuition, books, and meal payments, but not the income from the foregone job, which is the essence of what opportunity cost represents.
Explanation:The question asks about the opportunity cost of being a full-time student at a university instead of working full-time at a job, which includes all but one of the listed options. The correct answer to this is d. Income from the full-time job. This is because opportunity cost refers to the benefits or income one gives up by choosing one option over another. In this context, the opportunity costs of attending college as a full-time student include the tuition fees, payments for books, and even the cost for meals related to being in college, but not directly the income from a job you didn't take. That income represents the actual foregone benefit, making it the essence of the opportunity cost calculation in this scenario.
Opportunity cost is a fundamental concept in economics that encompasses the value of the best alternative you give up when you make a decision. For a college student, while the out-of-pocket expenses like tuition fees, book payments, and even meal payments are direct costs, the true opportunity cost also includes the income they could have earned if they were not in school. This is because, by choosing to study, they are sacrificing the chance to earn an income during this period, hopeful in gaining greater earnings in the future due to higher education.

On December 31, 2022, before any year-end adjustments, Canterbury Shoe Repair's Prepaid Insurance account had a balance of $3,500. It was determined that $2,200 of the Prepaid Insurance had expired. The adjusted balance for Prepaid Insurance at December 31, 20122, will be________________.
Final answer:
To calculate the adjusted balance for Prepaid Insurance, we subtract the expired portion of $2,200 from the initial balance of $3,500, resulting in an adjusted balance of $1,300 at December 31, 2022.
Explanation:
The subject of the question is determining the adjusted balance for the Prepaid Insurance account at the end of the accounting period after recognizing the expired portion of the insurance coverage. The beginning balance in the Prepaid Insurance account was $3,500. Since it was determined that $2,200 of the Prepaid Insurance had expired, we need to subtract this amount from the initial balance to find the adjusted balance. The calculation is as follows:
Adjusted Prepaid Insurance balance = Beginning Prepaid Insurance balance - Expired Prepaid Insurance
Adjusted Prepaid Insurance balance = $3,500 - $2,200
Adjusted Prepaid Insurance balance = $1,300
So, the adjusted balance for Prepaid Insurance at December 31, 2022, will be $1,300.
You meet a friend of yours for lunch. He is a supplier of coffee machines. While talking business, you mention to him that you've decided to use the principles of supply and demand to determine the market price for the coffee you plan to sell at your kiosk on campus. He suggests that you're making a lot of work for yourself, and you should just set your price based on the prices charged by your competitors.
However, you're apprehensive about using that approach.
Which would be the best argument in favor of your decision to use the principles of supply and demand
Final answer:
Choosing supply and demand principles to set prices for coffee at a campus kiosk takes into account variances in market conditions, such as changes in consumer preferences and supply issues, ensuring that prices can adapt to reach equilibrium without relying solely on competitors' pricing.
Explanation:
Using the principles of supply and demand to determine the market price for coffee you plan to sell at your kiosk on campus can be very beneficial. Competition indeed affects the market, but it doesn't always account for all the variances in the economy.
When you adhere to supply and demand principles, you can accurately adjust your prices based on real-time market conditions, like changes in consumer preferences or supply shortages. For instance, if the price of coffee were lowered to $2, according to the law of demand, the quantity demanded would increase, potentially creating a disequilibrium where demand exceeds supply, leading to a shortage. Conversely, when there's an excess supply due to a decrease in demand, prices would naturally fall to reach a new equilibrium.
Additionally, these adjustments of equilibrium price and quantity typically occur organically within a market-oriented economy, without much need for government intervention. An unforeseen event, such as a frost affecting the coffee crop in Brazil, might shift the supply curve of coffee to the left, causing a rise in price. Through the market's self-regulation, supply and demand will dictate the allocation and pricing, not just the singular aspect of competitor pricing. Hence, relying solely on competition and setting prices similar to your competitors may not optimally reflect the continuously changing market dynamics that supply and demand principles consider.

Answer:
Net income for 2018 is $8,500
Net income for 2019 is $15,500
Net income for 2020 is $17,500
Retained earnings from 2018 to 2020 is $41,500
Explanation:
Net income = cash revenue - cash expense
Net income for 2018 = $19,000 - $10,500 = $8,500
Net income for 2019 = $29,000 - $13,500 = $15,500
Net income for 2020 = $39,000 - $21,500 = $17,500
Retained earnings from 2018 to 2020 = net income for 2018 + net income for 2019 + net income for 2020 = $8,500 + $15,500 + $17,500 = $41,500

To ensure that as many individuals as possible use helmets, the government recently decided to subsidize the production of helmets.
Which of the following will happen as a result of this subsidy? Choose one or more:
A. The demand curve for helmets will increase.
B. The demand curve for helmets will remain the same.
C. The demand curve for helmets will shift to the left.
D. The supply curve for helmets will shift to the left.
E. The supply curve for helmets will shift to the right.
Answer: B & E
Explanation:
If a subsidy is provided for the production of helmets, the demand curve is unaffected, but the supply curve shifts to the right. A production subsidy encourages production because it reduces costs for the producer. However, it will not affect market demand.
A government subsidy on the production of helmets will cause the supply curve to shift to the right, indicating an increase in supply at every price level. The demand curve remains the same initially, but the subsidy can indirectly affect the quantity demanded by making helmets more affordable.
To determine the effect of the government subsidy on the production of helmets, we need to consider how it affects the supply curve and the demand curve. Subsidies are financial contributions from the government to producers, which effectively reduce the cost of production. A subsidy does not directly affect the demand curve; instead, it leads to an increase in supply because it lowers production costs, making it cheaper for producers to supply more at every price level.
The correct answer to the given question would be E. The supply curve for helmets will shift to the right. This is because the subsidy makes it less expensive for producers to make helmets, encouraging them to make more. The increased supply can lower the market price of helmets, making them more affordable to consumers without directly altering the demand curve. Therefore, the demand curve for helmets will remain the same initially (answer B), but the effect of a lower price may eventually increase the quantity demanded.

Which value gap refers to a company’s failure to accurately assess what customers really want?
Answer:
The correct answer is: Service Quality Gap.
Explanation:
The Service Quality Gap refers to the difference between what a company understands a customer's desires and what must be really done to satisfy that consumer. Firms should make all the efforts in their hands to close that breach and provide the customer with the good or service they need to keep their businesses going. When the gap is not closed, the customer's loyalty fails, pushing them to look for different options in other organizations.
Final answer:
A value gap related to misjudging customer preferences and market demand can lead to a loss of customer goodwill and misaligned company offerings.
Explanation:
The value gap that refers to a company's failure to accurately assess what customers really want is rooted in imperfect information, leading to misjudgment in areas like customer preferences, tastes, and the elasticity of demand.
Companies such as Netflix have suffered from these missteps by not fully understanding the market demand, lacking clarity on the impact of substitutes, and inadequately gauging customer expectations. The result can be a mismatch between the company's offerings and what the market actually desires, leading to loss of customer goodwill and potentially, market share.

On January 1, 2013, Deuce Inc. acquired 15% of Wiz Co.'s outstanding common stock for $62,400 and categorized the investment as an available-for-sale security. Wiz earned net income of $96,000 in 2011 and paid dividends of $36,000. On January 1, 2014, Deuce bought an additional 10% of Wiz for $54,000. This second purchase gave Deuce the ability to significantly influence the decision making of Wiz. During 2014, Wiz earned $120,000 and paid $48,000 in dividends. As of December 31, 2014, Wiz reported a net book value of $468,000. For both purchases, Deuce concluded that Wiz Co.'s book values approximated fair values and attributed any excess cost to goodwill.

On Deuce's December 31,2014 balance sheet, $116,400.00 will be reported for the investment in Wiz corporation account. This is because the investment cost of $116,400 is lower when compare with fair value of $117,000.

On the December 31, 2014 balance sheet, Deuce would report a balance of $123,600 for the investment in Wiz Corporation account. The computation incorporates both cost and equity method, considering different levels of influence over the investments.
Explanation:The balance reported for Deuce's investment in Wiz Corporation on Deuce's December 31, 2014 balance sheet would be calculated differently for the two separate purchases due to their different levels of influence on Wiz's decision making.
For the initial 15% purchase, Deuce would simply record the investment at cost because they didn't have significant influence over Wiz at this time. So, the investment account for this transaction would be $62,400.
The second purchase, however, gave Deuce the ability to significantly influence Wiz's decision making, and therefore it should apply the equity method for this investment. Initially, it would record the 10% purchase at cost, which is $54,000.
Further, under the equity method, Deuce adjusts this balance by its proportionate share of Wiz's earnings and subtracts any dividends received. Wiz earned $120,000 in 2014 and paid dividends of $48,000. So, Deuce would add to the investment account (10% of $120,000 = $12,000) and subtract the dividends received (10% of $48,000 = $4,800), so the increase due to the equity method would be $7,200.
By adding the two balances together we have $62,400 (initial investment) + $54,000 (second purchase) + $7,200 (equity method adjustment) = $123,600. So, Deuce would report a balance of $123,600 for the investment in Wiz Corporation account on its December 31, 2014 balance sheet.
