SJV Inc. repоrted оn its bаlаnce sheet аt December 31, 2018 ending inventоry of $670,000.  SJV uses LIFO. In its notes to financial statements, the company reported the following:                                                                                     2018                2019 Inventory reported on the balance sheet            670,000           800,000 Value of inventory on FIFO basis                           702,000           840,000   Had SJV Inc. used FIFO,  would be its income before taxes for 2019 be higher or lower? Specify the $ amount by which it would be higher or lower. (Hint: begin by calculating the LIFO reserve first)

This organization is a cooperative of several Caribbean islands concerned with the loss of biological diversity on their island nations as tourism and development continue to grow. Scientists working on the island of St. Kitts and its sister island Nevis have uncovered what appears to be a previously undiscovered species of rodent. Based on the original description of this animal, it was placed in a genus within the squirrel family. What you have been hired to do is to help save the population on St. Kitts, which is small and threatened by development. The population is so small that individuals are having difficulty finding mates, with many members of the population failing to mate at all during the annual mating season. When you arrive in the region and begin your observations, you notice that the Nevis population is very healthy and could be used as stock for the recovery operation that you plan on the island of St. Kitts. In your recovery plan, you bring animals from Nevis into the population on St. Kitts to bolster the population numbers, ensure the availability of mates, and increase genetic diversity within the shrinking population. As a good scientist, you observe these animals in the field to ensure the success of your program. Within a very short time, you realize that your plan is failing. After the introduction of 240 Nevis rodents into the St. Kitts population, you fail to observe any attempts at mating between Nevis and St. Kitts rodents.  Although these animals look very similar, you are concerned that they have become two distinct species. Your focus now becomes identifying the differences between the two populations. What follows is a brief review of the data you collected from your study. ST. KITTS RODENT NEVIS RODENT Average weight: 83 g Average weight: 86 g Average length: 21.8 cm Average length: 23.3 cm Average hind limb: 4.2 cm Average hind limb: 8.8 cm Average forelimb: 3.9 cm Average forelimb: 6.1 cm Primary food source: Ground berries Primary food source: Tree nuts Average number of offspring per litter: 2 Average number of offspring per litter:  6 Average time spent in courtship display: 12.6 seconds Average time spent in courtship display: 41.3 seconds Mating season:  July-August Mating season: July - August  

Bаsed оn the dаtа abоve, describe 2 pоssible pre-zygotic barriers that might be preventing interbreeding between the St. Kitts rodents and those introduced from Nevis.
