Concept Introduction:

Time value of money: Time value of money is the concept that differentiates the value of money received today and the value of same money received in future. According to this concept, the same amount of money to be received in future shall have lower present value (value of the money today) due to the interest that could be earned on that money.

NPV: Net present value (NPV) is the method to evaluate the project feasibility. This method calculates the present value of cash inflows and outflows, and then calculates the net present value of the investment. A project should be accepted if it has a positive NPV. The formula to calculate the NPV is as follows:

  NPV = Present value of cash inflows  Present value of cash out flows

IRR: Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is the rate at which the NPV of the project is 0 or we can say that IRR is the rate of return at which the project is at breakeven. IRR is calculated using excel or approximation method.

Payback Period: Payback period is the period in which the project recovers its initial cost of the investment. It can be calculated by dividing the initial investment by the annual cash inflow from the project. The formula to calculate the Payback period is as follows:

  Payback Period= Initial InvestmentAnnual Cash inflow

On May 1, Sandhill Company had beginning inventory consisting of 360 units with a unit cost of $8. During May, the company purchased inventory as follows: 720 units at $8 1080 units at $9 The company sold 1800 units during the month for $14 per unit. Sandhill uses the average-cost method. Assuming that a periodic inventory system is used, the value of Sandhill's inventory at May 31 is (Round average cost per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.52.) ○ $3240 ○ $18360 ○ $3060 ○ $2880
Suppose that Sandhill Trading Post has the following inventory data: July 1 Beginning inventory 46 units at $23 $1058 7 Purchases 162 units at $24 3888 22 Purchases 23 units at $26 598 $5544 The company uses a periodic inventory system. A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 31 reveals that there are 58 units on hand. Using the LIFO inventory method, the amount allocated to cost of goods sold for July is ○ $4198. ○ $4036. ○ $3932. ○ $4106.
