Explain why proponents of LIFO argue that it provides a better match of revenue and expenses. In what situations would it not provide a better match? Be specific. The management of the Esquire Oil Company believes that the wholesale price of heating oil that they sell to homeowners will increase again as the result of increased political problems in the Middle East. The company is currently paying $0.80 per gallon. If they are willing to enter an agreement in November 2021 to purchase a million gallons of heating oil during the winter of 2022, their supplier will guarantee the price at $0.80 per gallon. However, if the winter is a mild one, Esquire would not be able to sell a million gallons unless they reduced their retail price and thereby increase the risk of a loss for the year. On the other hand, if the wholesale price did increase substantially, they would be in a favorable position with respect to their competitors. The company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

TLT Ltd is considering the purchase of a new machine for use in its production process. Management has developed three alternative proposals to help evaluate the machine purchase. Only one of these proposals can be implemented. Proposals A and B both have the same cost to set up, but the output from proposal A (as measured by future net cash flows) commences at a high rate and then declines over time, while Proposal B starts at a low rate and then increases over time. Proposal C involves buying two of the machines considered under proposal B. That is, proposal C is simply Proposal B scaled by a factor of two. Proposal C results in net cash flows which are similar in magnitude to proposal A's net cash flows in the first two years. The estimated net cash flows, internal rates of return and net present values at 9% and 11% for each proposal are given in the following table. Proposal A -$290,000 $100,000 $90,000 Proposal B -$290,000 $40,000 $50,000 Proposal C -$580,000 $80,000 $100,000 End…

Can you help me answer this with a step by step explanation and display any formulas used.? There is a firm, which we are prospecting as a purchase candidate. It has the following features we find attractive. First, it will enable us to sell to the clients of this firm what we already are selling our existing clients. The revenue addition will be $12 million. However, it will induce $3 million more expenses in attaining that higher level of revenue. Secondly, it will enable us to sell a division of the firm that does not rally connect with our operations for $5 million. Thirdly, since there is a lot of repetition of positions ( we are in the same line of business) we can lay off 50 employees permanently. The average salary of those employees is $60,000. The coc of the firm is 10%. Calculate the amount that we can bid to acquire this company.
