Answer:Monopolistic Competition
Explanation:
The Richmond Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The company has only a single processing department. The company's ending work in process inventory on August 31 consisted of 18,000 units. The units in the ending work in process inventory were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor and overhead. If the cost per equivalent unit for August was $2.75 for materials and $4.25 for labor and overhead, the total cost assigned to the ending work in process inventory was:
Answer:
$95,400
Explanation:
Step 1 : Find the equivalent units of production in Ending Work in Progress
Materials = 18,000 x 100 % = 18,000 units
Conversion costs = 18,000 x 60 % = 10,800 units
Step 2 : Calculate the Cost of units in Ending Work in Progress
Cost of units in Ending Work in Progress = 18,000 x $2.75 + 10,800 x $4.25
= $95,400
Conclusion :
The ending work in process inventory was $95,400.

Answer:
uses historical financial statements to measure a company's performance and in making financial projections of future performance.
Explanation:
Financial accounting is an accounting technique used for analyzing, summarizing and reporting of financial transactions like sales costs, purchase costs, payables and receivables of an organization using standard financial guidelines such as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and financial accounting standards board (FASB).
Financial analysis uses historical financial statements to measure a company's performance and in making financial projections of future performance.
In Financial accounting, the horizontal financial analysis can be defined as an analysis and evaluation of a financial statement which illustrates or gives information about changes in the amount of corresponding financial statement items, benchmarks or financial ratio over a specific period of time. It is one of the most important technique that is used to measure how a business is doing financially. Hence, it is also referred to as the trend analysis.
Under the horizontal analysis of financial statement, we use the financial statements of two or more periods; earliest and latter periods.
Generally, the earliest is chosen as the base period while all other items on the statement for a latter period will be compared with the items on the statement of the base period.

You are the beneficiary of a life insurance policy. The insurance company informs you that you have two options for receiving the insurance proceeds. You can receive a one-time cash of $200,000 today or receive payments of $1,400 a month starting at the end of this month for 20 years. Assuming the APR is 6 percent with monthly compounding, which option should you take and why
Answer:
Option 1 PV lumpsum = $200000
Option2 PV of Annuity = $195413.08035 rounded off to $195413.08
Based on the present value of both the options, Option 1 should be chosen as it has a higher present value than option 2.
Explanation:
To decide on the best option to choose among the given two, we need to find the present value of both the options.
As the first option is to receive a lumpsum payment of $200000 today, the present value of this option is also equal to $200000 as it will be received today.
Option two, on the other hand, is an annuity as fixed payments will be received after equal intervals of time and for a limited time period and at the end of the period which satisfies the criteria of annuity ordinary. We will use the formula for the present value of annuity which is,
PV of Annuity = C * [( 1 - (1+r)^-n) / r]
Where,
C is the periodic paymentr is the rate of return of discount raten is the number of periodsThe periodic payment is provided as $1400. We are also provided with and APR of 6% which is the Annual rate. We will have to convert it into monthly rate by dividing it by 12. We are also provided with the number of years which we will need to convert into number of months by multiplying it by 12.
Monthly r = 6%/12 = 0.5%
Number of periods = 20 * 12 = 240
PV of Annuity = 1400 * [( 1 - (1+0.5%)^-240) / 0.5%]
PV of Annuity = $195413.08035 rounded off to $195413.08
Savers make deposits and investments in order to earn what?
Why don't savers invest their money directly with the businesses?
Answer:
Savers make deposits and investment in order to earn interest on their money. This often works very well because they do not earn only interest as a percentage of their money, but also interest as a percentage of previously accrued interest, something known as compound interest.
Savers do not invest their money directly with the businesses because real economic activity tends to be riskier (although it could also be more profitable for this same reason). This is why they often prefer to invest the money on financial instruments.
