What is the term used to describe a firm that primarily sells merchandise to other businesses?

Wholesale firm

Jake Co. purchased on account merchandise with a list price of $90,000. Payment terms were 1/15, n/45. If collection occurs within 18 days, what discount will Jake Co. recognize on the merchandise?

$0 Explanation The terms 1/15, n/45 indicate that the seller will allow a 1 percent discount if the purchaser pays cash within 15 days from the date of purchase. The amount not paid within the first 15 days is due at the end of 45 days from the date of purchase. In this case, Jake Co. did not meet the 15-day requirement. It took Jake Co. 18 days to pay which means Jake does not get the 1 percent discount.

Melbourne Company uses the perpetual inventory system and LIFO cost flow method. Melbourne purchased 500 units of inventory that cost $4.00 each. At a later date, the company purchased an additional 600 units of inventory that cost $5.00 each. If the company sells 800 units of inventory, what amount of ending inventory will appear on a balance sheet prepared immediately after the sale?

$1,200 Explanation The last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost flow method requires that the cost of the items purchased last be charged to cost of goods sold. Ending inventory units = 500 units + 600 units − 800 units sold = 300 units Ending inventory = 300 units × $4.00 (earliest purchase) = $1,200

$1,490 Explanation The first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost flow method requires that the cost of the items purchased first be assigned to cost of goods sold. Ending inventory units = 2,300 units available for sale - 1,800 units sold = 500 units in ending inventory Ending inventory = 400 units × $3.00 per unit + 100 units × $2.90 per unit = $1,490

When preparing its quarterly financial statements, Pace Co. uses the gross margin method to estimate ending inventory. The following information is available for the quarter ending March 31, Year 2: Beginning inventory $ 110,000 Purchases $ 385,000 Sales $ 525,000 Estimated gross margin percentage 45 % What is the estimated amount of inventory that is on hand on March 31, Year 2?

$206,250 Explanation Estimated gross margin = Sales × Estimated gross margin percentage Estimated gross margin = $525,000 × 0.45 = $236,250 Estimated cost of goods sold = Sales − Estimated gross margin Estimated cost of goods sold = $525,000 − $236,250 = $288,750 Cost of goods available for sale = Beginning inventory + Purchases Cost of goods available for sale = $110,000 + $385,000 = $495,000 Ending inventory = Cost of goods available for sale − Estimated cost of goods sold Ending inventory = $495,000 − $288,750 = $206,250

The inventory records for Radford Co. reflected the following: Beginning inventory @ May 1 1,600 units @ $4.80 First purchase @ May 7 1,700 units @ $5.00 Second purchase @ May 17 1,900 units @ $5.10 Third purchase @ May 23 1,500 units @ $5.20 Sales @ May 31 5,100 units @ $6.70 What is the amount of cost of goods sold assuming the LIFO cost flow method?

$25,990 Explanation The last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost flow method requires that the cost of the items purchased last be charged to cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold = (1,500 × $5.20) + (1,900 × $5.10) + (1,700 × $5.00) = $25,990

$3,090 Explanation The first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost flow method requires that the cost of the items purchased first be assigned to cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold = (500 × $2.60) + (600 × $2.80) + (700 × $2.90) = $5,010 Gross margin = Sales − Cost of goods sold Gross margin = $8,100 − $5,010 = $3,090

Vargas Company uses the perpetual inventory system and the FIFO cost flow method. During the current year, Vargas purchased 400 units of inventory that cost $15.00 each. At a later date during the year, the company purchased an additional 800 units of inventory that cost $18.00 each. Vargas sold 500 units of inventory for $27.00. What is the amount of cost of goods sold that will appear on the current year's income statement?

Cost of goods sold = (1,600 × $4.80) + (1,700 × $5.00) + (1,800 × $5.10) = $25,360 Gross margin = Sales − Cost of goods sold Gross margin = $34,170 − $25,360 = $8,810

The gross margin is $28.00 if Hoover uses the weighted-average cost flow method. Explanation Using weighted average, cost of goods sold is calculated by multiplying the average cost per unit by the number of units sold. If Hoover uses weighted-average, the average cost per unit is $34.00. Therefore, gross margin will be $28.00 (or Sales of $62.00 - Cost of goods sold of $34.00).

$1,110 Explanation The first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost flow method requires that the cost of the items purchased first be assigned to cost of goods sold. Ending inventory units = 1,900 units available for sale - 1,500 units sold = 400 units in ending inventory Ending inventory = 300 units × $2.80 per unit + 100 units × $2.70 per unit = $1,110

$11,990 Explanation The first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost flow method requires that the cost of the items purchased first be assigned to cost of goods sold. Ending inventory units = 8,300 units available for sale - 6,300 units sold = 2,000 units in ending inventory Ending inventory = 1,900 units × $6.00 per unit + 100 units × $5.90 per unit = $11,990
