Inverness Steel Corporation is a producer of flat-rolled carbon, stainless and electrical steels, and tubular products. The comp
any's income statement for the 2016 fiscal year reported the following information ($ in millions):
Sales $ 6,100
Cost of goods sold 5,100
The company's balance sheets for 2016 and 2015 included the following information ($ in millions):
2016 2015
Current assets:
Accounts receivable, net $ 702 $ 602
Inventories 890 814
The statement of cash flows reported bad debt expense for 2016 of $6 million. The summary of significant accounting policies included the following notes ($ in millions):
Accounts Receivable (in part)
The allowance for uncollectible accounts was $8 and $5 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. All sales are on credit.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost of the majority of inventories is measured using the last in, first out (LIFO) method. Other inventories are measured principally at average cost and consist mostly of foreign inventories and certain raw materials. If the entire inventory had been valued on an average cost basis, inventory would have been higher by $460 and $310 at the end of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
During 2016, 2015, and 2014, liquidation of LIFO layers generated income of $4, $5, and $23, respectively.

Answer:
3million Usd, 5794million Usd, 4950million Usd, 16%
Explanation:
1) Accounts receivable Inverness wrote off during 2016.
Accounts receivable write off
= balance of beginning of the year + bad debt expenses - balance at the end of the year.
Inputting the figures, we will have;
= $5million + $6million - $8million
= $3million.

Here is the correct question.
A cylindrical part of diameter d is loaded by an axial force p. this causes a stress of P/A, where A= πd²/4. if the load is known with an uncertainty of ±10 percent, the diameter is known within ±5 percent (tolerances), and the stress that causes failure (strength) is known within ±15 percent, determine the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail.
Answer:
the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail. = 1.434
Explanation:
Looking at the uncertainty; loss of strength must be raised to due to the stress that causes the failure (strength) is known within ±15% uncertainty.
Looking at the uncertainty; the maximum allowable load must be reduced to because the load is known with an uncertainty of ±10.
Looking at the uncertainty; the diameter must be raised to because the diameter is known within an uncertainty of ±5.
The decrease in the maximum allowable stress can be estimated as:
where,
stress
P = load
A = cross-sectional area of the cylinder
∴
replacing P' with and d' with
, we have:
Thus, the uncertainty in diameter and the load of the allowable stress needs to decrease to 0.82045
Now, the minimum design factor that will ascertain that the part will not fail can be computed as:
where;
the design factor =
the design factor = 1.434.
Thus, the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail. = 1.434
