Company Z had the following transactions in its first year of operations:

(1) On January 15, purchased 5,000 units of inventory for $20 each

(2) On March 1, purchased 10,000 units of inventory for $22 each

(3) On March 30, sold 7,000 units of inventory for $48 each

(4) On June 20, purchased 9,000 units of inventory for $25 each

(5) On August 10, sold 12,000 units of inventory for $50 each

(6) On September 3, sold 1,000 units of inventory $49 each

Company Z records transactions using a perpetual system. Calculate the cost of goods sold and ending inventory using (1) average cost, (2) FIFO, and (3) LIFO.

Company Z asks you to advise them on which inventory method to use. What method would you choose if the company wants to take out a loan from a bank in the near future that requires the company to meet a large threshold for its current assets’ value? What method would you choose if the company has a near-term investment opportunity that requires more cash on hand? Explain your answers.

The following linear regression model can be used to predict ticket sales at a popular water park (the correlation is significant).

Ticket sales per hour = -631.25 + 11.25(current temperature in °F)

Choose the statement that best reflects the meaning of the slope in this context.

Group of answer choices

The slope is slippery.

The slope tells us that a one degree increase in temperature is associated with an average increase in ticket sales of 11.25 tickets.

The slope tells us that if ticket sales are decreasing there must have been a drop in temperature.

The slope tells us that high temperatures are causing more people to buy tickets to the water park.
