Suppose your firm receives a $ 3.2 million order on the last day of the year. You fill the order with $ 1.7 million worth of inventory. The customer picks up the entire order the same day and pays $ 1.4 million upfront in​ cash; you also issue a bill for the customer to pay the remaining balance of $ 1.8 million in 30 days. Suppose your​ firm's tax rate is 0.0 % ​(i. e., ignore​ taxes). Determine the consequences of this transaction for each of the​ following: a. Revenues b. Earnings c. Receivables d. Inventory e. Cash

Answer and Explanation:

The consequences of given transactions are as follows

a. Revenues rise by $3.2 million  as the firm received an order

b. Earnings rise by $1.5 million  as the firm received an order and it filled by an orders i,e ($3.2 - $1.7)

c. Receivables rise by $1.80 million  as it determines the remaining balance which ultimately increased the receivable balance

d. Inventory declined by $1.7 million  as the order is filled which ultimately declines the stock

e. The cash would rise by $1.4 million

= Earnings - receivable + inventory

= $1.5 million - $1.80 million + $1.7 million

= $1.4 million

the answer would be voluntary exchange -

"the act of buyers and sellers freely and willingly engaging in market transactions. moreover, transactions are made in such a way that both the buyer and the seller are better off after the exchange than before it occurred."
