Answer:Earned, owned

Explanation: A brand is an identifying symbol, mark, logo, name, word, and/or sentence that companies use to distinguish their product from others.

In today's marketplace teeming with thousands of products and services, all of which are being rapidly commoditized, a brand stands out from the clutter and attracts attention.

A brand name can create and stand for loyalty, trust, faith, premium ness or mass-market appeal, depending on how the brand is marketed, advertised and promoted.

A brand differentiates a product from similar other products and enables it to charge a higher premium, in return for a clear identity and greater faith in its function.

Crystal Apple Sales Company began 2014 with cash of $2,000, inventory of $3,600 (200 crystal apples that cost $18 each), $2,500
Andru [333]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold = (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × (2,040-200-800)

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $24,960

= $44,560

Ending Inventory Under FIFO = (1,200 - 1,040) × (2,040-200-800)

= 160 × $24

= $3,840

Under LIFO method

Cost of goods sold is

= (1,200 × $24) + (800 × $20) + (40 × $18)

= $28,800 + $16,000 + $720

= $45,520

Ending Inventory Under LIFO is

= (200 - 40) × $18

= 160 × $18

= $2,880

Weighted Average cost flow Assumption

Weighted Average cost per apple = Cost of Beginning inventory and purchase ÷ Total apple available

Cost of Beginning inventory and purchases is

= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,200 × $24)

= $3,600 + $16,000 + $28,800

= $48,400

Total apples available is

= 200 + 800 + 1,200

= 2,200  

Weighted Average cost per apple is

= $48,400 ÷ 2,200

= $22

Cost of goods sold is  

= 2,040 × $22

= $44,880

Ending Inventory is

= 160 × $22

= $3,520

b. The Preparation of income statement, a balance sheet, and a statement of cash flows under each of the three cost flow assumptions is prepared below:-

Income Statement                       Amount

Sales (2,040 × $40)                     $81,600

Less: Cost of goods sold            ($44,560)

Gross Profit                                  $37,040

Less: Operating Expenses         ($26,000)

Income before income taxes      $11,040

Working note

cash = (opening + Sales - Purchases - Operating expenses - Income tax expenses )

= $2,000 + $81,600 - $44,800 - $26,000 - $3,312

= $9,488

= $3,100 + $7,728

= $10,828
