Direct Labor Hours
Molding 5,500 2150
Trimming 700 3,500
We divide the Costs with the cost drivers to get the rates.
1-Departmental Overhead Rate
1) Molding Department = Overhead Costs/ Machine Hours
= 6752,000/ 30,500= $ 221.377= $ 221.38 per machine hour
2) Trimming Department= Overhead Costs/ Direct Labor Hours
=$612,000 /48,000 DLH = $ 12.75 per DLH
Now we multiply the cost drivers with the rates to get the overheads costs.
2- Total overhead cost= $ 1137963 + $ 270432.6= $140 8395.6
N Part 270 =$ 1129038 + $ 8925= $ 1137963
Molding = $ 221.38 *5,100 = $ 1129038
Trimming= $ 12.75 *700= $ 8925
Part XB2B= $ 225807.6 + $ 44625= $ 270432.6
Molding= $ 221.38 *1020 = $ 225807.6
Trimming= $ 12.75 *3500= $ 44625
We divide the overhead cost for each product with the number of units to get the unit costs.
3- Total Overhead Rate N Part 270 = Total Overhead Cost/ Units Produced
=$ 1137963 / 9300 = $ 112.36 per unit of N Part 270
Total Overhead Rate Part XB2B = Total Overhead Cost/ Units Produced
=$ 270432.6/54,500= $ 4.96 per unit of Part XB2B
Box Elder Power Company expects to operate at 85% of productive capacity during May. The total manufacturing costs for May for the production of 40,000 batteries are budgeted as follows:
Direct materials $240,000
Direct labor 100,000
Variable factory overhead 32,000
Fixed factory overhead 150,000
Total manufacturing costs $522,000
The company has an opportunity to submit a bid for 5,000 batteries to be delivered by May 31 to a government agency. If the contract is obtained, it is anticipated that the additional activity will not interfere with normal operation during May or increase the selling or administrative expenses.
Required:
1. What is the unit cost below which Box Elder Power Company should not go in bidding on the government contract?
Answer:
The company should not go below $9.30 in bidding on the government contract.
Explanation:
Given:
Direct materials = $240,000
Direct labor = 100,000
Variable factory overhead = 32,000
Fixed factory overhead = 150,000
Total manufacturing costs = $522,000
Direct Material p.u = $240,000 ÷ 40,000 = $6
Direct Labor p.u = $100,000 ÷ 40,000 = $2.5
Variable Factory overhead p.u = $32,000 ÷ 40,000 = $0.8
Total overhead = Direct Material p.u + Direct Labor p.u + Variable Factory overhead p.u
= $6 + $2.5 + $0.8
Thus total overhead = $9.3
Toan Inc. uses a job-order costing system in which any underapplied or overapplied overhead is closed to cost of goods sold at the end of the month. In September the company completed job S80M that consisted of 23,000 units of one of the company's standard products. No other jobs were in process during the month. The job cost sheet for job S80M shows the following costs:
Beginning balance $ 66,700
Direct materials $494,500
Direct labor cost $158,700
Manufacturing overhead cost applied $269,100
During the month, the actual manufacturing overhead cost incurred was $270,020 and 3,000 completed units from job S80M were sold. No other products were sold during the month.
The unadjusted cost of goods sold (in other words, the cost of goods sold BEFORE adjustment for any underapplied or overapplied overhead) for September is closest to:
Answer:
$129,000
Explanation:
The computation of the unadjsuted cost of goods sold is shown below:
Before that we need to compute the total cost and cost per unit which are as follows
Total cost
= Beginning balance + Direct materials + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead cost applied
= $66,700 + $494,500 + $158,700 + $269,100
= $989,000
And, Units completed is 23,000 units
So, the cost per unit is
= Total cost ÷ Number of units completed
= $989,000 ÷ 23,000 units
= $43
And, the number of units sold is 3,000 units
So, the cost of good sold unadjusted is
= Number of units sold × cost per unit
= 3,000 units × $43
= $129,000
On January 1, Jackson, Inc.'s WorkminusinminusProcess Inventory account showed a balance of $ 66 comma 000. During the year, materials requisitioned for use in production amounted to $ 71 comma 700, of which $ 66 comma 000 represented direct materials. Factory wages for the period were $ 208 comma 000 of which $ 187 comma 000 were for direct labor. Manufacturing overhead is allocated on the basis of 60% of direct labor cost. Actual overhead was $ 116 comma 110. Jobs costing $ 353 comma 110 were completed during the year. The December 31 balance in WorkminusinminusProcess Inventory is
Answer:
$78,090
Explanation:
The solution of ending balance is provided below:-
Ending balance = Beginning balance + Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead - Transfer to finished goods inventory
= $66,000 + $66,000 + $187,000 + ($187,000 × 60%) - $353,110
= $66,000 + $66,000 + $187,000 + $112,200 - $353,110
= $431,200 - $353,110
= $78,090
Therefore, we have calculated ending balance by using the above formula.
On April 1, 2021, Shoemaker Corporation realizes that one of its main suppliers is having difficulty meeting delivery schedules, which is hurting Shoemaker's business. The supplier explains that it has a temporary lack of funds that is slowing its production cycle. Shoemaker agrees to lend $490,000 to its supplier using a 12-month, 10% note.

Credit Notes Receivable $490,000
Credit Interest on Notes Receivable $36,750
Credit Interest on Notes $12,250
To record cash collection of the note and interest.
Explanation:
a) The acceptance of notes receivable increases the Notes Receivable account and reduces the Cash Account by $490,000.
b) Due to the accrual concept and the matching principle, on December 31, 2021, interest on notes receivable will be accrued. This is calculated as follows:
Interest for 9 months = $490,000 x 10% x 9/12 = $36,750.
c) On April 1, 2022, when the cash collection of the note and interest is made, the Cash received will total $539,000 ($490,000 + 10% Interest for a year). This is worked as $490,000 x 10% = $49,000. But, already interest for 2021 had been accrued. The difference is now accrued in 2022.
d) The entries required are a debit to the Cash Account $539,000, a credit to Interest on Notes Receivable $36,750, to Interest on Notes $12,250, and Notes Receivable Accounts $490,000 respectively.

Completed units = 2,544,000.
Closing WIP = 240,480
Explanation:
Equivalent unit for conversion cost
Item units equivalent unit
Completed 22,200 100%× 22,200 22,200
Closing WIP 2,2400 80%× 2,400 1,920
Total equivalent unit 24,120
Cost per equivalent unit for conversion cost =
(221,940 + 2,165,940)/=24,120= $99
Equivalent unit for material cost
Equivalent unit for Material = 22,200 + 2,400 =24,600
Cost per equivalent unit for material cost

RATIO CALCULATIONS Assume the following relationships for the Caulder Corp.: Sales/Total assets 1.4x Return on assets (ROA) 6% Return on equity (ROE) 9% Calculate Caulder's profit margin assuming the firm uses only debt and common equity, so total assets equal total invested capital. Round your answer to two decimal places. 4.29 % Calculate Caulder's debt-to-capital ratio assuming the firm uses only debt and common equity, so total assets equal total invested capital. Round your answer to two decimal places. %
Answer:
33.33%
Explanation:
The solution of debt-to-capital ratio is provided below:-
Here, to find out the debt to capital ratio we need to follow some steps which is following below:-
Step 1
Return on equity = Return on assets × (Assets ÷ Equity)
9% = 6% × (Assets ÷ Equity)
(Assets ÷ Equity) = 9% ÷ 6%
= 1.5%
Step 2
Debt ÷ Equity = (Assets ÷ Equity) - 1
= 1.5% - 1
= 0.5%
and finally
Debt-to-capital = 0.5% ÷ (1 + (Debt ÷ Equity)
= 0.5% ÷ (1 + 0.5%)
= 0.5% ÷ 1.5%
= 33.33%
So, we have calculated the debt to capital by using the above formula.

If he contributes $100,000 cash to a public charity, he can deduct $ __________ this year.
If he contributes property that is worth $80,000 to a public charity, he can deduct $ ___________ .
Or, if he contributes publicly traded stock with a FMV of $60,000 and a basis of $40,000 to a private non-operating foundation, he can deduct $ __________ this year.
Answer:
$90,000; $45,000; $30,000.
Explanation:
In the United States of America, tax payers get reduction in the amount of taxes that they pay when taxpayers donate money to charity. The deductions in tax depends on the charity organization the tax payer is donating to and the kind of property the tax payer is donating.
Below is how it is been deducted;
(1). As regards to public charity, only 60% can be deducted from the adjusted gross income.
(2).As regards to Capital gain property contribution to public charity, only 30% can be deducted from the adjusted gross income.
(3). As regards to Capital gain property contribution to private non operating foundation, only 20% can be
In the question above, the adjusted gross income for the year will be = $150,000 deducted from the adjusted gross income.
Therefore, for (1). 60/100 × $150,000 = $90,000.
(2). 30/100 × 150,000 = $45,000.
(3). 20/100 × 150,000 = $ 30,000.
The reported net incomes for the first 2 years of Sarasota Products, Inc., were as follows: 2020, $155,500; 2021, $188,100. Early in 2022, the following errors were discovered.
1. Depreciation of equipment for 2020 was overstated $15,900.
2. Depreciation of equipment for 2021 was understated $37,500.
3. December 31, 2020, inventory was understated $48,400.
4. December 31, 2021, inventory was overstated $15,800.
Prepare the correcting entry necessary when these errors are discovered. Assume that the books are closed.
Answer:
Dr retained earnings($21,600+$15,800) $37,400.00
Cr accumulated depreciation $21,600
Cr inventory $15,800
Explanation:
The errors that require adjustment are the overstatement and understatement of depreciation expense as well as the December 2021 overstatement of inventory.
The understatement of inventory in 2020 would have self-corrected itself in 2021 since closing inventory in 2020 deducted from costs of goods available for sale would be introduced as opening inventory in 2021.
net effect of depreciation=understatement -overstatement=$37,500-$15,900=$21,600.00
hence retained earnings would reduce by $21,600.00
for the overstatement of inventory,retained earnings would reduce by $15,800
An external competitor to Construction (from another island) is offering to build the new homes for $1300 each. Here are facts about the each of the projects (incline, bridge, campground, new home) Construction is considering:
Revenue Variable Cost Incline $1,400 $600
Bridge $1,500 $950
Campground $2,700 $1,200
New Home ? $700
Island Evaluations only wants to hire one company to build all five homes. In other words, either Construction (internal) will build all five, or the competitor (from another island) will build all five new homes. Island Evaluations plans on selling the homes to new tenants for $2,500 each.
a) What is the minimum transfer price (per home) that Construction would be willing to accept?
b) What is the maximum transfer price (per home) Island Evaluations would be willing to accept?
Answer:
a. The minimum transfer price (per home) that Construction would be willing to accept would be $1,270
b. The maximum transfer price (per home) Island Evaluations would be willing to accept would be $1,300
Explanation:
a. According to the given data If Construction accepts the proposal of Island Evaluations, then it has to foregone the profits which could have been earned if Construction accepted the proposal of local villagers to build an incline, a bridge and a campground.
Hence, minimum transfer price (per home) for Construction should be such that it covers the profit foregone as given above:
Now, profit foregone is calculated as per the table below:
Figures in $
Particulars Revenue Cost Profit
Incline 1400 600 800
Bridge 1500 950 550
Campground 2700 1200 1500
Total 5600 2750 2850
Therefore, the transfer price should be such which can generate a profit of $2,850 for Construction.
Therefore, total revenue which should be generated = Cost of building five new homes + Profit foregone
= 700*5 + 2850 = $6,350
Hence, minimum transfer price (per home) should be = 6350/5 = $1,270
b. The maximum transfer price (per home) that Island Evaluations will be willing to accept is $1,300 per home as quoted by the external competitor from another island.
Enviro Company issues 8%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $230,000 and semiannual interest payments. On the issue date, the annual market rate for these bonds is 10%, which implies a selling price of 87 1/2. The straight-line method is used to allocate interest expense.1. Using the implied selling price of 87 ½, what are the issuer's cash proceeds from issuance of these bonds?2. What total amount of bond interest expense will be recognized over the life of these bonds?3. What is the amount of bond interest expense recorded on the first interest payment date?
Answer:
Cash proceeds is $201,250.00
Explanation:
The cash proceeds derived from issuing the bonds can be computed as follows:
cash proceeds=87.5%*$230,000=$201,250.00
Total interest expense on the bond is $212,519 as contained in the attached bond amortization schedule
The first payment=$201,250*10%*6/12=$10,063 as it also found in the attached

Explanation:
Beginning of the year
Overhead costs = $840,000
Direct materials costs = $400,000
End of the year actual overhead cost = $1,151,500
Jobs completed and sold = $390,000
Jobs in finished goods inventory = $83,000
Jobs in work in process inventory = $55,000
Total actual direct materials cost = $528,000
a. Calculating the predetermined overhead rate= (Overhead ÷direct labor) × 100
Predetermined overhead rate= ($840,000 ÷ $400,000) × 100
= 210%
b. Factory overhead
Actual overhead = $1,151,500
Applied overhead = $528000 × 210% = $1,108,800
Difference = actual overhead- applied overhead
= $1,151,500 - $1,108,800
= $42,700 Under-applied overhead
c. Adjusting entry to allocate the above under-applied overhead cost of goods sold

Estimated direct labor hours= 4,000
To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 640,000/4,000
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $160 per direct labor hour
Neosho Corporation's Gauge Division manufactures and sells product no. 24, which is used in refrigeration systems. Per-unit variable manufacturing and selling costs amount to $23 and $7, respectively. The Division can sell this item to external domestic customers for $40 or, alternatively, transfer the product to the company's Refrigeration Division. Refrigeration is currently purchasing a similar unit from Taiwan for $36. Assume use of the general transfer-pricing rule. Required: A. What is the most that the Refrigeration Division would be willing to pay the Gauge Division for unit? B. If Gauge had excess capacity, what transfer price would the Division's management set? C. If Gauge had no cxecss capacity, what transfer price would the Division's management sct? D. Repeat part "C," assuming that Gauge was able to reduce the variable cost of internal transfers b $5 per unit
Answer:
(a) Refrigeration would be willing to pay a maximum of Rate 36 to gauge division for unit. because its outside purchase price. (b) $30 (c) $40 (d) $35
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
(A) The Refrigeration would be willing to pay a maximum of Rate 36 to gauge division for unit. because its outside purchase price.
(B) If Gauge had excess capacity, The Division's Management set the transfer price would be $30. this is because transfer price be set as sum of Total Outlay cost and Opportunity Cost. So, ($23 + $7) + $0 = $30
(C) iF Gauge had no excess capacity, the transfer price would be $40.
The Calculation of Transfer price is as follows:
($23 + $7) = $30
Add :- ($40 - $23 -$7) = $10
Hence, the transfer Price = $40
(D) If Gauge was able to reduce the variable cost of internal transfers b $5 per unit then Transfer Price Would be $35.
Thus,
The calculation of transfer price is as follows:-
($23 + $7 - $5) = $25
Add :- ($40 - $23 -$7) = $10
The transfer Price = $35

Motivational theory applications argue for recognizing individual differences. They also suggest paying attention to members of diverse groups. Is this a contradiction? Why or why not? Compare and contrast two motivational theories (one content and one process theory) regarding how they can support diversity within teams.
Explanation:
It is not a contradiction to say that motivational theory advocates the recognition of individual differences and at the same time also suggests paying attention to members of different groups.
This is due to the fact that people have distinct personality, values and skills, which in an organizational environment must be properly recognized and developed so that it can be integrated into a group and contribute to the different characteristics that integrated will assist the organization in reaching its goals. goals and objectives. It is important that the organization observes the strengths of each employee and seeks strategies to develop them to improve individual and collective work and productivity.
The theory of content in motivation is relevant in this context, as it is a theory that focuses on what motivates the human being and enables the process by which organizations are able to analyze and understand what are the main motivational sources of their employees in the company, which adds the benefits of working in a process of continuous improvement that involves satisfaction, motivation, innovation and maintenance of staff.
Dawson Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently established a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy:
Direct materials: 6 microns per toy at $0.34 per micron
Direct labor: 1.2 hours per toy at $6.90 per hour
During July, the company produced 5,100 Maze toys. The toy's production data for the month are as follows:
Direct materials: 76,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $0.33 per micron. 37,750 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month.
Direct labor: 6,620 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $48,326.
Required:
1. Compute the following variances for July:a. Direct materials price and quantity variances.b. Direct labor rate and efficiency variances.2. Prepare a brief explanation of the possible causes of each variance.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials: 6 microns per toy at $0.34 per micron
Direct labor: 1.2 hours per toy at $6.90 per hour
During July, the company produced 5,100 Maze toys.
Direct materials: 76,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $0.33 per micron. 37,750 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month.
Direct labor: 6,620 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $48,326.
1) To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (0.34 - 0.33)*76,000
Direct material price variance= $760 favorable
This variance can be explained by negotiation with the supplier, finding a new supplier, or a market decrease in the price of the part.
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (5,100*6 - 38,250)*0.34
Direct material quantity variance= $2,601 unfavorable
This variance can be explained by a decrease in the quality of the part, mishandlings, and breakage of parts, or an inexperienced worker.
2) To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (5,100*1.2 - 6,620)*6.9
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $3,450 unfavorable
This variance can be explained by an inexperienced worker or a trainee, a break down of a machine, a new part, etcetera.
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Actual rate= 48,326/6,620= $7.3
Direct labor rate variance= (6.9 - 7.3)*6,620
Direct labor rate variance= $2,648 unfavorable
the two mean sets of accounting standards followed by business are Gaapand IFRS. breifly explain how the balance sheet is formatted under each set??
Answer:GAAP arranged balance sheet in their order of liquidity. From current asset to non current asset then to current liabilities to non current liabilities and finally to owners Equity. Under IFRS they start with non current asset, then to current asset, then to owners Equity and from owners Equity to non current asset and finally to current liabilities.
Explanation:
A balance sheet is a classified list of the debit and credit balances remaining on the books after the preparation of the trading profit and loss account. The purpose of a balance sheet is to present a true and fair view of the financial position of the business at a given date. Under the GAAP, balance sheet are arranged in their order of liquidity. In other words asset are arranged in the reverse order of their realisability or in their ease of conversion into cash. Under GAAP, current asset comes first followed by non current asset, then followed by current liabilities, then by non current liabilities, and lastly by owners Equity.
Under IFRS, the order accepted by them is that balance sheet should be arranged in reverse order to that of GAAP. They start with non current asset, followed by current asset, then followed by owners equity, then followed by non current liabilities and lastly by current liabilities.

Given the following information for Watson Power Co., find the WACC. Assume the companyâs tax rate is 21 percent.
Debt: 15,000 bonds with a 5.8 percent coupon outstanding, $1,000 par value, 25 years to maturity, selling for 108 percent of par; the bonds make semiannual payments.
Common stock: 575,000 shares outstanding, selling for $64 per share; the beta is 1.09.
Preferred stock: 35,000 shares of 2.8 percent preferred stock outstanding, currently selling for $65 per share.
Market: 7 percent market risk premium and 3.2 percent risk-free rate.
Required:
What is the company's WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16)
Answer:
8.60%
Explanation:
For computing the WACC first we need to find the following items
Debt:
Value of Debt is
= Number of bonds × Par value × Given percentage
= 15,000 × $1,000 × 108%
= $16,200,000
Now
Par Value = $1,000
So,
Current Price is
= 108% × $1,000
= $1,080
Given that
Annual Coupon Rate = 5.8%
So, Semiannual Coupon Rate = 2.90%
Now its Semiannual Coupon amount is = 2.90% × $1,000 = $29
Time period = 25 years
Semiannual time period = 50 years
Let we assume the semiannual yield to maturity be x%
Current Price = Coupon amount × PVIFA (x%, time period) + Par value × PVIF(x%, time period)
$1,080 = $29 * PVIFA(x%, 50) + $1,000 × PVIF(x%, 50)
Using financial calculator:
N = 50
PV = -$1,080
PMT = 29
FV = $1,000
We got the X i.e interest rate is 2.612%
Semiannual YTM = 2.612%
Annual YTM = 2 × 2.612% = 5.224%
Now this is a before tax cost of debt
So, after cost of debts is
= Before tax cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)
= 5.224% × (1 - 0.21)
= 4.127%
For Common Stock:
As we know that
Expected Rate of Return = Risk Free Rate + Beta × Market Risk Premium
= 0.032 + 1.09 × 0.07
= 0.032 + 0.0763
= 0.1083 or 10.83%
Now
Value of Equity is
= Number of outstanding shares × selling price per share
= 575,000 × $64
= $36,800,000
For Preferred Stock:
Cost of Preferred Stock = Expected Dividend ÷ Current Price
where,
Expected Dividend = $100 × 2.8% = $2.80
So,
Cost of Preferred Stock = 2.80 ÷ $65
= 4.308%
Now
Value of Preferred Stock = 35,000 × $65
= $2,275,000
So,
Value of Firm = Debt value + Common Stock value + Preferred Stock value
= $16,200,000 + $36,800,000 + $2,275,000
= $55,275,000
Weight of Debt is
= Debt value ÷ Total value of firm
= $16,200,000 ÷ $55,275,000
= 0.2930
Weight of Common Stock
= Common stock value ÷ Total firms value
= $36,800,000 ÷ $55,275,000
= 0.6658
Weight of Preferred Stock
= Preferred stock value ÷ Total firms value
= $2,275,000 ÷ $55,275,000
= 0.0412
Now
WACC = (Weight of Debt × After-tax Cost of Debt) + (Weight of Common Stock × Cost of Common Stock)+ (Weight of Preferred Stock × Cost of Preferred Stock )
= (0.2930 × 0.04127) + (0.6658 × 0.1083) + (0.0412 × 0.04308)
= 1.209211 + 7.210614 + 0.17749
= 8.60%
Consider the following premerger information about Firm X and Firm Y: Firm X Firm Y Total earnings $ 86,000 $ 17,500 Shares outstanding 43,000 18,000 Per-share values: Market $ 58 $ 14 Book $ 18 $ 9 Assume that Firm X acquires Firm Y by issuing long-term debt for all the shares outstanding at a merger premium of $7 per share, and that neither firm has any debt before the merger. List the assets of the combined firm assuming the purchase accounting method is used.
Answer:
Total assets X Y 1,152,000
Explanation:
Since both the firms do not have any liability -Book value of equity = Carrying value of assets
Goodwill = Net consideration - Market Value of Assets of Y
Assets from X 18 x 43000 774000
Assets From y 14 x 18000 252000
Goodwill (18000 x (14+7)) - 252000 = 126000
Total assets X Y 1152000

The ending Work-in-Process Inventory consisted of 2,200 units which were 50% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. The Finishing Department uses first-in, first-out (FIFO) process costing.
Required:
A) How many units were transferred-out during the period?
Answer:
The total amount of units were transferred-out during the period iv 18,400 units
Explanation:
Beginning Work-in-Process = 5,200 incomplete units
Units received from previous department = 15,400 units
Ending Work-in-Process = 2,200 units
Units were transferred-out during the period = beginning Work-in-Process Inventory + units were received - ending Work-in-Process Inventory
