  • Assessing Fair Value

    • Companies must calculate the fair market value for these available for sale securities at the end of each subsequent accounting period.
    • A company initially records the "available for sale securities" at cost.
    • Using the fair value method, available for sale investment with unrealized gains and losses recognized in net income should have:
    • A company initially records the "available for sale securities" at cost.
    • Explain why a company calculates the fair market value of available for sale securities

  • Average Cost Method

    • Under the Average Cost Method, It is assumed that the cost of inventory is based on the average cost of the goods available for sale during the period.
    • Note that we compute weighted average cost per unit by dividing the cost of units available for sale, $690, by the total number of units available for sale, 80.
    • The average cost is computed by dividing the total cost of goods available for sale by the total units available for sale.
    • On 12/31/12, Furniture Palace has cost of goods available for sale (beginning inventory and purchases) of USD 5,000; 200 units available for sale; sales of 50 units; and an ending inventory of 150 units.
    • On 12/29/12, Furniture Palace has beginning inventory of $5,000 and 200 units available for sale.

  • Types of Textbooks

    • Less expensive options include open-source books and free textbooks, many available on sites like archive.org or scribd.
    • It is also the case, however, that an increasing number of authors are making their own online textbooks freely available after the publisher's copyright has expired and reverted back to the author(s).
    • Frequently a popular blog or website for the field will announce when a new book has been made freely available by its author(s).

  • Point estimates are not exact

    • Estimates are usually not exactly equal to the truth, but they get better as more data become available.

    • The mean tends to approach the true population average as more data become available.

  • Energy Sources

    • The availability of energy and nutrient sources affects species distribution and their adaptation to land or aquatic habitats.
    • Light availability can be an important abiotic force directly affecting the evolution of adaptations in photosynthesizers.
    • Not surprisingly, understory plants have adaptations to successfully capture available light.
    • The availability of nutrients in aquatic systems is also an important aspect of energy or photosynthesis.
    • As a result, the nutrients once contained in dead organisms become available for reuse by other living organisms .

  • Creatine Supplementation

    • Creatine supplements may increase anaerobic exercise performance by augmenting phosphocreatine levels and ATP availability.
    • Supplements of creatine can reduce or mitigate these negative effects of exercise, primarily by increasing the availability of phosphocreatine to muscles.
    • Phosphocreatine is an important source of energy-rich phosphate groups that can be added to available ADP to resynthesize ATP for muscle contractions.

  • Free Cash Flow

    • Free cash flow (FCF) is cash flow available for distribution among all the securities holders of an organization.
    • In corporate finance, free cash flow (FCF) is cash flow available for distribution among all the security holders of an organization.
