Coronado Company uses a periodic inventory system. Details for the inventory account for the month of January, 2018 are as follows: Units Per unit price Total Balance, 1/1/18 210 $4 $840 Purchase, 1/15/18 120 5.40 648 Purchase, 1/28/18 120 5.60 672 An end of the month (1/31/18) inventory showed that 170 units were on hand. If the company uses FIFO and sells the units for $12 each, what is the gross profit for the month?

the gross profit for the month is $2,142

Explanation:

Periodic Inventory System keep record of the Costs of Sales and Inventory balance after a period elapses.

To find the gross profit for the month, we first need to calculate the costs of goods sold using FIFO inventory system. FIFO assumes that the first goods bought by the company are the first to be sold (First In First Out).

Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold :

Units Sold = 210 + 120 + 120 - 170

                 = 280

Therefore,

210 units × $4     =     $840

70 units × $5.40 =     $378

Total                    =   $1,218

The next step is to Calculate the Total Sales Revenue made during the period.

Calculation of Total Sales Revenue :

Total Sales Revenue = Units Sold × Selling Price per Unit

                                   = 280 units × $12

                                   = $3,360

Lastly Calculate the Gross Profit

Calculation of Gross Profit :

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Sales

                   = $3,360 - $1,218

                   = $2,142

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
