Explanation:
So adjusting entries are done at the end of the reporting period, in this case it is the end of October.
For most of these entries we recognize expenses and a corresponding decrease in assets or increase in liabilities.
As for revenue previously unearned, we have to recognize the revenue portion now earned.
High Desert Pottery works makes a variety of pottery products that it sells to retailers. The company uses a job-order costing system in which departmental predetermined overhead rates are used to apply manufacturing overhead cost to jobs. The predetermined overhead rate in the Molding Department is based on machine-hours, and the rate in the Painting Department is based on direct labor- hours. At the beginning Of the year, the company provided the following estimates:
Direct labor-hours 36,500 50,100
Machine-hours 87,000 32,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $174,000 $445,890
Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $3.20 -
Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour - $5.20
Job 205 was started on August 1 and completed on August 10. The company's cost records show the following information concerning the job:
Department
Molding Painting
Direct labor-hours 76 132
Machine-hours 350 66
Direct materials $938 $1,220
Direct labor cost $720 $1,020
Required:
a. Compute the predetermined overhead rates used in the Molding Department and the Painting Department.
b. Compute the total overhead cost applied to Job 205.
c. What would be the total manufacturing cost recorded for Job 205?
d. If the job contained 22 units, what would be the unit product cost?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each department:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Molding:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (174,000/87,000) + 3.2
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $5.2 per machine hour
Painting:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 445,890/50,100 + 5.2
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.1
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 205:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 5.2*350 + 14.1*132
Allocated MOH= $3,681.2
Finally, the unitary cost of Job 205:
Total cost= (938 + 1,220) + (720 + 1,020) + 3,681.2
Total cost= $7,579
Unitary cost= 7,579/22
Unitary cost= $344.51
1-a. Allocate the lump-sum purchase price to the separate assets purchased. 1-b. Prepare the journal entry to record the purchase. 2. Compute the first-year depreciation expense on the building using the straight-line method, assuming a 15-year life and a $28,000 salvage value. 3. Compute the first-year depreciation expense on the land improvements assuming a five-year life and double-declining-balance depreciation.
Answer:
1. a. Allocated prices
First add the market values = 444,150 + 255,150 + 56,700 + 189,000 = $945,0
00
Building allocated price Land allocated price
= 444,150/ 945,000 * 830,000 = 255,150/945,000 * 830,000
= $390,100 = $224,100
Land improvement allocated price Four vehicles allocate price
= 56,700/945,000 * 830,000 = 189,000/945,000 * 830,000
= $49,800 = $166,000
b. Journal entry
Date Account Details Debit Credit
Jan. 1, 2017 Building $390,100
Land $224,100
Land improvement $49,800
Vehicles $166,000
Cash $830,000
2. Depreciation on building using straight-line method.
= (390,100 - 28,000) / 15
= $24,140
3. Depreciation on land improvements using double declining method.
First do straight line:
= 49,800/ 5 years
= $9,960
Straight line rate of depreciation = 9,960/49,800 = 20%
Double declining will be twice that rate = 40%
Depreciation = 40% * 49,800
= $19,920
The Beckham Company has the following information about their activity cost pools: Activity Cost Pools Total Overhead Cost Total Activity Machine Setups $ 125,000 5,000 setups Customer Orders $ 200,000 1,250 orders Product Design $ 300,000 2,500 product design hours The activity rate for machine setups is ________. multiple choice $125,000 $0.04 per setup $10 per setup $25 per setup
Answer:
$25 per setup
Explanation:
With regards to the above, activity rate is computed as;
= Activity cost pool resources / Activity driver
Activity cost pool resources = $125,000
Activity driver = 5,000
Activity rate for machine setup = $125,000/5,000 = $25 per setup
Matrix Inc. calculates cost for an equivalent unit of production using both the weighted-average and the FIFO methods.
Data for July:
Work-in-process inventory, July 1 (36,000 units):
Direct materials (100% completed) $122,400
Conversion (50% completed) 76,800
Balance in work in process inventory, July 1 $199,200
Units started during July 90,000
Units completed and transferred 102,000
Work-in-process inventory, July 31:
Direct materials (100% completed) 24,000
Conversion (50% completed)
Cost incurred during July:
Direct materials $180,000
Conversion costs 288,000
Cost per equivalent unit for conversion under the FIFO method is calculated to be:__________
(please provide step by step solution for further understanding)
a) $2.40.
b) $3.20.
c) $3.00.
d) $3.10.
e) $2.00.
Answer:
c) $3.00
Explanation:
The FIFO method assumes that the cost of the Beginning Work In Process will automatically go towards the completed units, because the units that were incomplete for the previous period are the first to be completed in the current period. Thus, we are only interested in the current costs instead of getting a weighted average (combining the cost of last year in beginning inventory and the cost of the current period).
Step 1
Calculate the equivalent units
To finish Beginning work in Process (36,000 x 50%) = 18,000
Started and Completed (102,000 - 36,000) x 100% = 66,000
Ending Work In Process (24,000 x 50%) = 12,000
Equivalent units of production for conversion Costs = 96,000
Step 2
Determine the Conversion Costs for the Current period
Conversion Costs incurred = $288,000
Step 3
Determine the Cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs
Cost per equivalent unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent units
therefore,
Cost per equivalent unit = $288,000 ÷ 96,000 = $3.00

Explanation:
Planes frequently push back from the gate on time, but then wait 2 feet away from the gate until it is time to queue up for takeoff. This increases fuel consumption, and increases the time that passengers must sit in a cramped plane awaiting takeoff.
Which of the following performance metrics would, if emphasized in evaluations, incentivize airlines to engage in such practices?
A. A performance metric that measures customer satisfaction, based on customer comfort while on the plane
B. A performance metric that measures timeliness of the flight, where a flight is considered "on time" as long as the flight is boarded and away from the gate by the scheduled departure time
C. A performance metric that measures timeliness of the flight, where a flight is considered "on time" as long as the plane takes off by the scheduled departure time.
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
The performance metric that would incentivize this would be one that measures timeliness of the flight, where a flight is considered "on time" as long as the flight is boarded and away from the gate by the scheduled departure time. This is because the time it takes for the plane to be boarded and ready for departure can vary and ultimately depends on many factors. Once the plane is completely boarded and away from the gate, the rest of the variables that affect the plane's ETA can be easily calculated by flight control and therefore can be considered as "on time"
The chart below gives prices and output information for the country of Utopia. Use this information to calculate real and nominal GDP for both years. Use 2001 as the base year.
Year 2000 2001
Price Quantity Price Quantity
Ice Cream $7.00 600 $3.00 400
Blue Jeans $70.00 20 $20.00 90
Laptops $300.00 5 $300.00 5
2000 nominal GDP = $_________
2001 nominal GDP = $_________
2000 real GDP = $_________
2001 real GDP = $_________
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Nominal GDP = Sum of (Present Year Price × Present Year Quantity)
And,
Real GDP = Sum of (Base Year Price × Present Year Quantity)
Now
(a) Nominal GDP, 2000 is
= $[(7 × 600) + (70 × 20) + (300 × 5)]
= $4,200 + $1,400 + $1,500
= $7,100
(b) Nominal GDP, 2001 is
= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]
= ($1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500)
= $4,500
(c) Real GDP, 2000 is
= $[(3 × 600) + (20 × 20) + (300 × 5)]
= $1,800 + $400 + 1,500
= $3,700
(d) Real GDP, 2001 is
= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]
= $1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500
= $4,500

The management of Krach Corporation would like to investigate the possibility of basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity. The company's controller has provided an example to illustrate how this new system would work. In this example, the allocation base is machine-hours and the estimated amount of the allocation base for the upcoming year is 13,000 machine-hours. Capacity is 19,000 machine-hours and the actual level of activity for the year is assumed to be 9500 machine-hours. All of the manufacturing overhead is fixed and both the estimated amount at the beginning of the year and the actual amount at the end of the year are assumed to be $22,800 per year. For simplicity, it is assumed that this is the estimated manufacturing overhead for the year as well as the manufacturing overhead at capacity. It is further assumed that this is also the actual amount of manufacturing overhead for the year. If the company bases its predetermined overhead rate on capacity, what would be the cost of unused capacity reported on the income statement prepared for internal management purposes
Answer:
the cost of the unused capacity reported is $11,400
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of the unused capacity reported is as follows:
= (Estimated amount of overhead ÷ capacity machine hours) × (capacity machine hours - actual machine hours)
= ($22,800 ÷ 19,000 machine hours) × (19,000 - 9,500)
= $1.2 × (9,500)
= $11,400
hence, the cost of the unused capacity reported is $11,400
At Medallion Industries, variable cost per unit is budgeted to be $8.00 and fixed cost per unit is budgeted to be $5.00 in a period when 4,000 units are produced. What is the expected total cost of the units produced at Medallion, if instead, production is actually 5,100 units
Answer:
Total cost= $60,800
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
For 4,000 units:
Unitary variable cost= $8
Unitary fixed cost= $5
First, we need to calculate the total fixed cost:
Total fixed cost= 5*4,000= $20,000
Now, we can determine the total cost for 5,100 units:
Total cost= 5,100*8 + 20,000
Total cost= $60,800

In 2008, Betserai was a 10-year-old quintrillionaire living in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. He was literally rolling in money. In fact, Betserai has so much money that he decided to make kites out of billion dollar bills instead of putting the money into the bank to earn interest. None of Betserai's friends bothered to save their money, either. Rupert was Betserai's American pen pal and heard of Betserai's story and was extremely confused. He was taught that Zimbabwe was one of the poorer countries in the world, or at the least substantially poorer than the United States. Which statement best explains this phenomenon?
A. A country's wealth is based on the amount of money in circulation.
B. Zimbabwe was in the midst of an incredible economic boom, substantially increasing the wealth of all its citizens.
C. Rapid rises in price levels made the Zimbabwean dollar near worthless in terms of purchasing power.
D. All of these statements could explain what happened in Zimbabwe in 2008.

Kostelnik Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $555,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $2.10 per machine-hour, and 74,000 machine-hours. The company has provided the following data concerning Job A496 which was recently completed:
Number of units in the job 20
Total machine hours 80
Direct materials $500
Direct labor cost $2,160
The amount of overhead applied to job A496 is closes to____.
A) $1,256.
B) $632.
C) $944.
D) $312.
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $768
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (555,000/74,000) + 2.1
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $9.6 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job A496:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 9.6*80
Allocated MOH= $768

homeworklib Assume the following for White Top Inc. for the current fiscal year. White Top applies overhead on the basis of units produced. Budgeted overhead $ 200,000 Actual overhead $ 222,000 Actual labor hours 15,000 Actual number of units sold 43,000 Underapplied overhead $ 20,000 Budgeted production (units) 50,000 Required: How many units were produced in the current fiscal year
Answer:
50,500 Units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units produced is shown below:
Overhead rate is
= $200,000 ÷ 50,000 units
= $4 per unit
The Actual overhead is $222,000
So,
Under applied overhead is $20,000
Now
Applied overhead is
= $222,000 - $20,000
= $202,000
And, finally
Actual unit produced is

Explanation:
Beta Alpha Psi, the accounting honorary fraternity, held a homecoming party. The fraternity expected attendance of 80 persons and prepared the following budget: Room rental .. $ 170 Food ....... 660 Entertainment .. 570 Decorations ... 210 Total ...... $1,610 After Beta Alpha Psi paid all the bills for the party, the total cost came to $1,885 or $275 over budget. Details are $170 for room rental; $875 for food; $570 for entertainment; and $270 for decorations. Ninety-six persons attended the party. 1. Prepare a performance report for the party that shows how actual costs differed from the budget. That is, include in your report the budgeted amounts, actual amounts, and variances. 2. Suppose the fraternity uses a management-by-exception rule. Which costs deserve further examination
Answer:
Beta Alpha Psi
1. Performance Report for the party:
Budget Actual Variance
Expected attendance (persons) 80 96 16
Room rental .. $ 170 $170 $0
Food ....... 660 875 $215 U
Entertainment .. 570 570 $0
Decorations ... 210 270 $60 U
Total ...... $1,610 $1,885 $275 U
2. The costs that deserve further examination are Food and Decorations. The party overspent on these items.
Explanation:
Since 96 persons attended the party, the food cost should have been = $792 ($660/80 * 96), which is the flexible budget cost. The cost of decorations should have remained $210 unless there were improper estimates of the items required for the decorations and the size of the party venue.
You own one futures contract on gold that you purchased at a quoted price of 1,448.5. The current price quote is 1,405.5. The contract size is 100 ounces and the quotes are expressed in dollars and cents per ounce. What is your current profit or loss on this investment?
a. $912.00.
b. $4,300.00.
c. −$43.00.
d. −$4,300.00.
e. −$912.00.
Answer:
d. -$4,300.00
Explanation:
Calculation for What is your current profit or loss on this investment
Using this formula
Current profit or loss = Contract size*(Current price quote-Quoted price )
Let plug in the formula
Current profit or loss = 100 *($1,405.5-$1,448.5)
Current profit or loss = 100 *-$43
Current loss = -$4,300.00
Therefore your current loss on this investment will be -$4,300.00
Universal Manufacturing uses a weighted-average process-costing system. All materials are introduced at the start of manufacturing, and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the process. The company's beginning and ending work-in-process inventories totaled 10,000 units and 15,000 units, respectively, with the latter units being 2/3 complete at the end of the period. Universal started 30,000 units into production and completed 25,000 units. Manufacturing costs follow.
Beginning work in process: Materials, $60,000; conversion cost, $150,000
Current costs: Materials, $180,000; conversion cost, $480,000
Universal's equivalent-unit cost for conversion cost is:____.
a. $4.50.
b. $6.00.
c. $8.00.
d. $9.60.
e. some other amount.
Answer: b. $6.00
Explanation:
Equivalent Cost Per Unit = Total Material Cost/Materials Equivalent Units
Materials Equivalent Units
= Opening inventory + Units completed + Ending inventory
= 10,000 + 25,000 + 5,000
= 40,000 units
Equivalent cost per unit = (Beginning WIP Materials + Current costs) / Materials EUP
= (60,000 + 180,000) / 40,000
= $6.00
Note: Ending materials inventory = Units started - Units completed

The Bradley Corporation produces a product with the following costs as of July 1, 20X1: Material $4 per unit Labor 4 per unit Overhead 2 per unit Beginning inventory at these costs on July 1 was 4,250 units. From July 1 to December 1, 20X1, Bradley Corporation produced 14,500 units. These units had a material cost of $2, labor of $4, and overhead of $2 per unit. Bradley uses LIFO inventory accounting. a. Assuming that Bradley Corporation sold 18,000 units during the last six months of the year at $13 each, what is its gross profit
Answer:
Gross profit $83,000
Explanation:
The computation of the gross profit is as follows:
Sales (18,000 units × $13) $234,000
Less: Material
(14,500 × $2) -$29,000
(18,000 - 14,500) × $4 -$14,000
Less; labor
(14,500 × $4) -$58,000
(18,000 - 14,500) × $4 -$14,000
Less: Overhead
(14,500 × $2) -$29,000
(18,000 - 14,500) × $2 -$7,000
Gross profit $83,000
Suppose the statutory incidence were instead on the consumers. Calculate the new equilibrium price and quantity in the market. In that case, the dollar portion of the $0.75/drink tax that is borne by consumers is $ . The dollar portion of the $0.75/drink that that is borne by producers is $ .
Answer:
The new equilibrium price is $6.43 and the quantity is 374.28
The tax borne by consumers is 0.72
The tax borne by producers is 0.03
Explanation:
The old equilibrium price of the bubble tea was $5.71 while the new price of the bubble tea is $6.43. The new price includes the tax effect which is paid by the consumers. The difference in the two equilibrium prices is the tax which is borne by consumers.
During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000. As of year end, Beta had resold only 60 percent of these intra-entity purchases. Alpha sells inventory to Beta at the same markup it uses for all of its customers. What is the total for consolidated cost of goods sold
Answer:
a. $173,000
Explanation:
Missing word "Alpha Company owns 80 percent of the voting stock of Beta Company. Alpha and Beta reported the following account information from their year-end separate financial records: Alpha Beta Inventory $95,000 $88,000 Sales Revenue 800,000 300,000 Cost of Goods Sold 600,000 180,000 During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000."
Percentage of profits Alpha charge to other customers = ($800,000 - $600,000) / $800,000 = 25% of sales
Stock held at year end by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $100,000 * 40% =$40,000
Profit involved in stock held by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $40,000 * 25% = $10,000
So, Value of stock of Beta = $88,000 - $10,000 = $78,000
Hence, Total for consolidated inventory = $95,000 + $78,000 = $173,000
