Answer:
McCracken's Cash Budget for May:
Beginning Cash balance
Cash Sales: 40% month of sale = $52,000
58% following month of sale = $63,800 $115,800
Cash Purchases: month following purchase = ($85,000)
Selling & Administrative Expenses = ($42,000)
Bank Notes = $27,000
Cash Balance = $15,800
Explanation:
a) Cash Budget is an estimate of the cash receipts and cash payments during a period of time.
b) Depreciation of $8,000 is not a cash payment, so this amount is deducted from the Selling and Administrative Expenses.
c) The bank notes are in multiples of $1,000. To maintain a cash balance of at least $15,000 for each month, McCracken needed to borrow $1,000 bank loan in 27 notes.
During 2018, its first year of operations, Pave Construction provides services on account of $142,000. By the end of 2018, cash collections on these accounts total $101,000. Pave estimates that 25% of the uncollected accounts will be bad debts.
Required:
1. Record the adjustment for uncollectible accounts on December 31, 2018. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Journal entry worksheet Record the adjustment entry for Uncollectible Accounts Note: Enter debits before credits. Date General Journal Debit Credit December 31, 2018 Bad debt expense 10,250 Allowance for uncollectible accounts 10,250
2. Calculate the net realizable value of accounts receivable.
Answer:
1. Record the adjustment for uncollectible accounts on December 31, 2018.
Dr Bad debt expense 10,250
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 10,250
Allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account that reduces the amount of accounts receivable and has a credit balance.
2. Calculate the net realizable value of accounts receivable.
net realizable value of accounts receivable = total accounts receivable - allowance for doubtful accounts = $41,000 - $10,250 = $30,750
Explanation:
total services on account $142,000
cash collected $101,000, remaining accounts receivable $41,000
25% of remaining accounts receivable will be uncollectible = $41,000 x 25% = $10,250 in bad debts

At its date of incorporation, Sauder, Inc. issued 100,000 shares of its $10 par common stock at $11 per share. During the current year, Sauder acquired 20,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $16 per share and accounted for them by the cost method. Subsequently, these shares were reissued at a price of $12 per share. There have been no other issuances or acquisitions of its own common stock. What effect does the reissuance of the stock have on the following accounts? Explain and show your work.Retained Earnings Additional Paid-in Capitala. Decrease Decreaseb. No effect Decreasec. Decrease No effect
d. No effect No effect
Answer:
Sauder Inc.
The answer is d.
The effect of the reissuance of the stock on:
1)Retained Earnings - No effect
2) Additional Paid-in Capital: No effect
Using the cost method or the par value method, there is no effect on Retained Earnings by the reissuance of stock.
Using the cost method, there is no effect on the Additional Paid-in Capital. Every treasury stock transaction is recorded in the Treasury Stock account without reference to the Additional Paid-in Capital.
Using the par value method, there is an effect on the Additional Paid-in Capital for reissuance of stock at more than the par value.
Workings:
The reissuance would be recorded as follows, using the costing method:
Debit Cash with $240,000
Credit Treasury Stock with $240,000
To record the reissuance of 20,000 shares at $12 per share.
The reissuance would be recorded as follows, using the par value method:
Debit Cash with $240,000
Credit Treasury Stock with $200,000
Credit Additional Paid-in Capital with $40,000
To record the reissuance of 20,000 shares at $12 per share.
Explanation:
Treasury Stock account is a contra account to the Common Stock account. There are two methods for recording treasury stock transactions: the costing method and the par value method.
Under the costing method, every treasury stock transaction is recorded in the Treasury Stock account. Under the par value method, the above or below par value elements of treasury stock transactions are recorded in the Additional Paid-in Capital account.

Cash flows from investing activities include only those purchases and sales of assets that are used by the company to generate revenue, e.g. plant and equipment, land, investment in stocks in other companies, etc.
Beta Industries is considering a project with an initial cost of $6.9 million. The project will produce cash inflows of $1.52 million a year for seven years. The firm uses the subjective approach to assign discount rates to projects. For this project, the subjective adjustment is +2.2 percent. The firm has a pretax cost of debt of 9.1 percent and a cost of equity of 17.7 percent. The debt-equity ratio is 2.67 and the tax rate is 34 percent. What is the net present value of the project? (Round the answer to the nearest $100.)
Answer:
The net present value of the project is $173,200
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Let Weight of debt = Wd = x
Weight of equity = We = 1-x
Debt / equity = 2.67
x / (1-x) = 2.67
3.67x = 2.67
Weight of Debt = Wd = x = 0.72752
Weight of Equity = We = (1-x) = 1-0.72752 = 0.27248
Cost of debt = rd = 9.1%
Cost of equity = re = 17.7%
Tax rate = t = 34%
Therefore, WACC = [Wd * rd * (1-t)] + [We*re]
= [0.72752 * 9.1%*(1-34%)] + [0.27248 * 17.7%]
= 4.36949% + 4.82290%
= 9.19239%
Hence, Discount rate for the project = 9.19%+2.2% = 11.39%
The net present value of the project is $173,200
A small businessman tries to buy a computer to help with the job. He needs a small computer, but the expected growth of the business might lead to the incompatibility of the small system in the next few years. The alternatives for the businessman were limited to buying a small device or a small device that can be increased in size or a large device, and their purchase prices were 4000, 6000, and 9000, respectively. In a period of 3 years, he can replace the small or medium system with a large system at a cost of 7500 pounds or expand in the expandable device at a cost of 4000 pounds. The probability of his needs for a large computer system within 3 years has been estimated to be 80%. The probability of his needs for a small computer system within 3 years has been estimated to be 20%. o Analyze the problem using a decision tree. o State which decision is the best decision for the businessman
Answer:
The cheapest option would be to purchase the large computer right away at 9,000 pounds. Even though the other options require a lower initial investment, the probability of needing a large computer in the future is very high and the cost of either acquiring a new computer or expanding an existing one is higher.
Explanation:
Since there is not enough room here I attached the decision tree.
Vaughn Service Center just purchased an automobile hoist for $34,000. The hoist has an 8-year life and an estimated salvage value of $3,400. Installation costs and freight charges were $4,200 and $800, respectively. Vaughn uses straight-line depreciation. The new hoist will be used to replace mufflers and tires on automobiles. Vaughn estimates that the new hoist will enable his mechanics to replace 5 extra mufflers per week. Each muffler sells for $77 installed. The cost of a muffler is $38, and the labor cost to install a muffler is $14. (a) Compute the cash payback period for the new hoist. Cash payback period years (b) Compute the annual rate of return for the new hoist. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.52%.) Annual rate of return %
Answer:
a. Cash payback period years = 6 years
b. Annual rate of return = 9.67%
Explanation:
(a) Compute the cash payback period for the new hoist. Cash payback period years
Total cost of automobile hoist = Purchase cost + Installation costs + freight charges = $34,000 + $4,200 + $800 = $39,000
Weekly profit or cash inflow = (Muffler selling price per unit - Muffler cost per unit - Muffler labor cost per unit) * Number of extra muffler per week = ($77 - $38 - $14) * 5 = $125
Annual cash inflow = $125 * 52 weeks = $6,500
Cash payback period years = Total cost of automobile hoist / Annual cash inflow = $39,000 / $6,500 = 6 years
(b) Compute the annual rate of return for the new hoist
Annual depreciation expenses = (Total cost of automobile hoist - Estimated salvage value) / Useful years = ($39,000 - $3,400) / 8 = $4,450
Expected annual income = Annual cash inflow - Annual depreciation expenses = $6,500 - $4,450 = $2,050
Average investment = (Total cost of automobile hoist + Salvage value) / 2 = ($39,000 + $3,400) / 2 = $21,200
Annual rate of return = Expected annual income / Average investment = $2,050 / $21,200 = 0.0967, or 9.67%

With practical illustration, discuss how managers can leverage on organizational behaviour components to maximize business success.
Answer:
Within every organisation that is made up of humans, people are usually placed in groups and units. Because these units collectively make up the organisation, it is important to understand how people behave when they are placed in them. The study of the above is referred to as Organisational Behaviour.
When discussing Organisational Behavior, one has to look at the following:
1. People: Every organisation needs the right people to survive. It needs strong leadership and competent people who are culture fit with the ability to key into the vision, mission and objectives of the organisation and run with it with minimal supervision.
Practically speaking, let's assume Tendon LLC is a start-up, the culture of the organisation will most likely reflect the values, habits and tendencies of the CEO. If the CEO values partnerships, integrity, quality, he'd lookout for those qualities in the heads of departments who he'd hire to manage units within the organisation. Those, in turn, will do the same. The extent to which such values are implemented will determine the success of the organisation, to a large extent.
Leadership: Companies that can develop leaders the fastest will eventually win in the market place. For the sake of this explanation, let's say Leadership is the ability to influence others towards the attainment of organisational goals which are ethical and profitable and to make them love doing it.
Strong and quality leadership prevents high attrition rates and ensure cohesion within teams. If Tendon LLC, for instance, enters the market with a stronger team that Reflex LLC who has been in the business for 15 years, the probability that Tendon will kick Reflex out of the market is high. One of the attributes of leaders are they groom other leaders quickly, they share information rather than hoard them, as they share what they know, they learn more and have more to share thus there is a free and increasing flow of knowledge.
Other attributes of good leadership are accountability and ownership mentality. Leaders don't own the business but they show up every day like they own it and put in the work like they would if they own it. Contrast the above with Reflex who has staff that only show up to work because they have to and do only the bit they are required to.
2. Structure: This simply refers to the various formal relationships that have been created within the organisation for the effective working of the same. For example, there is the Accounting Unit, Human Resources Unit, Marketing Unit, Customer Care Unit, Board of Directors, Executive Management etc.
The relationship between each of these units/ roles servers to clarify reporting structures thus removing any ambiguity with the contractual, political and power relationships between the organisation.
3. Technology: Technology in some industries has replaced a lot of jobs. The purpose of technology is to make life and work simpler, easier. However, in certain industries, for instance, robots have taken over the jobs of millions of people. This simply means that the future of organisations cannot exist without technology. Looking at it from the entrepreneur’s perspective, it is cheaper in the long run to have robots. Robots don't take sick and maternity leaves, come late to work or feel bad. They simply get the job done. This means more profit in the long run.
4. Social System:
Where ever there is a group of people, organised towards a common goal, a social system is most likely to emerge. The values, attributes, personality and thinking of the leaders in any organisation will always influence its social system/ culture. Just like it is important to form healthy habits as an individual, an organisation must form social systems that are healthy and critical to the attainment of its organisational objectives.
Automattic Inc --an American company-- for instance, has successfully codified its social system such that as employees are coming on board, this is communicated to them and they sign off on it. Thus, it becomes like a social contract which will guide their behavior during their stay there.
5. Environment
Every organisation must take into cognisance its internal and external environments. If the external environment is conducive for business, then there is one less factor to worry about. If however, just like in recent times, workers cannot come physically to work due to a pandemic, the behaviour of the organisation is altered. If they do not quickly adjust their operations to accommodate this new behaviour, it will translate to the loss of man-hours, loss of value to customers, loss of customers and ultimately an erosion of the bottom line of the business. So is the internal environment. The internal environment must be conducive for employees to work. The environment must be such that encourages and elicits creativity, problem-solving, teamwork and cohesion.

A Company processes pine rosin into three products: turpentine, paint thinner, and spot remover. During May, the joint costs of processing were $720,000. Production and sales value information for the month is as follows: Product Units Produced Sales Value at Split-off Point Turpentine 15,000 liters $120,000 Paint thinner 15,000 liters $100,000 Spot remover 7,500 liters $50,000 Determine the amount of joint cost allocated to Paint thinner if the physical-measure method is used.
Answer:
$288,000
Explanation:
As per the given question the solution of the amount of joint cost allocated to Paint thinner is provided below:-
Here, we need to find out the amount of joint cost allocated to Paint thinner so we will find out first total units produced of each product and joint cost allocated to paint thinner which is follow below:-
Total units produced of each product = Turpentine + Paint thinner + Spot remover
= 15,000 liters + 15,000 liters + 7,500 liters
= 37,500
Joint cost allocated to paint thinner = Paint thinner of total units produced ÷ Total units produced of each product
= 15,000 ÷ 37,500
= 40%
Joint cost allocated to Paint thinner = Joint cost of processing × Joint cost allocated to paint thinner
= $720,000 × 40%
= $288,000
To reach the amount of joint cost allocated to Paint thinner we simply multiply the joint cost of processing with joint cost allocated to paint thinner.
The Can Division of Vaughn Manufacturing manufactures and sells tin cans externally for $1.20 per can. Its unit variable costs and unit fixed costs are $0.24 and $0.10, respectively. The Packaging Division wants to purchase 50,000 cans at $0.34 a can. Selling internally will save $0.03 a can. Assuming the Can Division is already operating at full capacity, what is the minimum transfer price it should accept? $0.86 $0.71 $1.17 $0.27
Answer:
Minimum transfer price = $1.17
Explanation:
The Can Division is operating at full capacity, hence it has no excess capacity .
This implies that it can not produce enough to meet both the internal and external buyers.
Since Division X can not accommodate the demands of the Packaging Division at a price lower than the external price, because it will result to a loss in contribution.
To maximize and optimize the group profit
Minimum transfer price = External selling price - savings in internal transfer cost
= $1.20 - 0.03 = $1.17
Minimum transfer price = $1.17
WP Corporation produces products X, Y, and Z from a single raw material input in a joint production process. Budgeted data for the next month is as follows:
Product X Product Y Product Z
Units produced 1,500 2,000 3,000
Per unit sales value at split-off $ 19.00 $ 21.00 $ 24.00
Added processing costs per unit $ 7.00 $ 7.50 $ 7.00
Per unit sales value if processed further $ 29.00 $ 29.00 $ 30.00
The cost of the joint raw material input is $149,000. Which of the products should be processed beyond the split-off point?
Product X Product Y Product Z
A) Yes Yes No
B) No Yes No
C) Yes No Yes
D) No Yes Yes
1. Choice D
2. Choice A
3. Choice B
4. Choice C
Answer:
yes yes NO ( A )
Explanation:
products X,Y,Z
units produced : X = 1500 , Y = 2000, Z = 3000
per unit sales value at split-off : X = $19, Y = $21, Z = $24
Added processing costs per unit : X = $7, Y = $7.50 , Z = $7
per unit sales value if processed further : X = $29, Y = $29, Z = $30
COST OF JOINT MATERIAL INPUT = $149000
To check for products to be processed further we apply
(unit sales value if processed further - per unit sales value at split-off ) - ( added processing cost )
for product X = $29 - $19 - $7 = $3
for product Y = $29 - $21 - $7.5 = $0.50
for product Z = $30 - $24 - $7 = - $1 ( negative value )
products to be processed beyond the split of point would be : X Y
because Z has a negative contribution margin
A-Plus Appliances sells dishwashers with a four-year warranty. In 2019, sales revenue for dishwashers is $94,000. The company estimates warranty expense at 4.5% of revenues. What is the total estimated warranty payable of A-Plus Appliances as of December 31,2019? A-Plus Appliances began operating in 2019. (Round your final answer to the nearest dollar.)

An investor is given the two investment alternatives (Assets A and B) with the following characteristics: Asset Expected Return Standard Deviation of Returns A 18.4 percent 16.5 percent B 10.8 percent 6.8 percent What is the standard deviation of a portfolio comprised of 60 percent of an investor's wealth invested in Asset A and 40 percent invested in Asset B if the correlation between the returns of A and Asset B are 0.70?
Answer:
12.00%
Explanation:
As per the given question the solution of standard deviation of a portfolio is provided below:-
Standard deviation of a portfolio = √(Standard deviation of Product 1)^2 × (Weight 1)^2 + Standard deviation of Product 2)^2 × (Weight 2)^2 + 2 × Standard deviation of product 1 × Standard deviation of product 2 × Weight 1 × Weight 2 × Correlation
= √(0.165^2 × 0.6^2) + (0.068^2 × 0.4^2) + (2 × 0.6 × 0.4 × 0.165 × 0.068 × 0.7)
= √0.009801 + 0.0007398 + 0.00376992
= √0.01431076
= 0.119628592
or
= 12.00%
So, we have calculated the standard deviation of a portfolio by using the above formula.

Because the liquidity-preference framework focuses on the:
a.short run, it assumes the price level adjusts to bring the money market to equilibrium.
b.short run, it assumes the interest rate adjusts to bring the money market to equilibrium.
c.long run, it assumes the price level adjusts to bring the money market to equilibrium.
d.long run, it assumes the interest rate adjusts to bring the money market to equilibrium.
Answer:
B. Short run, it assumes the interest rate adjusts to bring the money market to equilibrium
Explanation:
This theory is explained to be a model that suggests that an investor should demand a higher interest rate or premium on securities with long-term maturities that carry greater risk because, all other factors being equal, investors prefer cash or other highly liquid holdings.
According to this theory, which was developed by John Maynard Keynes in support of his idea that the demand for liquidity holds speculative power, investments that are more liquid are easier to cash in for full value. Cash is commonly accepted as the most liquid asset. According to the liquidity preference theory, interest rates on short-term securities are lower because investors are not sacrificing liquidity for greater time frames than medium or longer-term securities.
An investor owns 5,000 shares of IBM stock, $105 per share. He thinks that there is no large rise and possible drop in price. This investor decides to sell 50 December 110 call option at $4, receiving $20,000. Note: Each call option contract provides for the right to buy 100 shares of stock. December 110 call option means that the strike price of the call is 110 and it matures in December.
Required:
1. If IBM stock price rises from $105 to $112, the profit associated with the passive strategy is __________ and the profit associated with the covered call writing strategy is ____________.
Answer:
If IBM stock price rises from $105 to $112, the profit associated with the passive strategy is $ 35,000 and the profit associated with the covered call writing strategy is $ 45,000 .
Explanation:
Shares = 5000
Price of shares = $105
Sell Price = $112
The profit associated with the passive strategy = $(112 - 105) × 5000
= $ 35,000
Now with covered call also included in the strategy the profit/loss from covered call can be calculated as
Strike Price = $110
Spot Price = $112
Total Shares on which Call options are sold = 50 × 100 = $5000
Total Premium received = 5000 × 4 = $20000
(Spot Price - Strike Price ) × Total Shares
= $(112 - 110) × 5000
= $10,000
Hence Net Profit = Premium received - $10,000 = $20,000 - $10,000
= $ 10000
Hence the profit associated with the covered call writing strategy
= $35,000 + $10,000
= $ 45,000
Tamera and Rupert each applied for the same credit card through the same company. Tamera has a positive credit history. Rupert has a negative credit history.
Which compares their credit limits and likely interest rates?
Answer:
Tamera's credit limit is most likely higher than Rupert's, and her interest rate is most likely lower
Explanation:
Credit limit can be defined as the highest or maximum amount of credit that either a financial institution or other lender will tend to extend to a debtor due to a particular line of credit or allow a consumer to spend using a credit card in which the limits are determined by banks, alternative lenders, and credit card companies and are often based on several pieces of information which are related to the borrower.
INTEREST RATE can be defined as the amount that are been charged and said to be expressed as a percentage of the principal, by a lender to a borrower for the use of an assets.
Therefore Tamera's credit limit is most likely higher than Rupert's, and her interest rate is most likely lower because they both
applied for the same credit card through the same company in which Tamera has a positive credit history while Rupert has a negative credit history.
Answer:
The Answer is A in Edge
Explanation:
quiz
Company A has been experiencing lost sales and high returns recently, so they have decided to undertake a comprehensive quality program. The program would require additional inspection of products prior to shipment at an estimated cost of 45000, and the upgrading of production equipment at an estimated cost of 400000. Company A knows that if it undertakes this program, it will be able to reduce warranty repair costs by 25000. They also know they will be able to avoid lost profits by retaining customers, but they cannot quantify that benefit with any degree of precision.Should company A go ahead with the quality program?
Answer:
Explanation:
Incremental cost
Inspection cost prior to shipment - 45,000
Upgrading of equipment - 400,000
Incremental benefit - 25,000
The incremental cost of improving quality far outweigh the incremental benefit
Even though loss of profit was avoided by retaining existing customers , yet the quality improvement program dies not guarantee additional customers and profit to write off or reduce the incremental cost .
Therefor , it is not advisable fort the company to go on with the quality program.

Chang Industries has 2,000 defective units of product that already cost $14 each to produce. A salvage company will purchase the defective units as is for $5 each. Chang's production manager reports that the defects can be corrected for $6 per unit, enabling them to be sold at their regular market price of $21. The $14 per unit is a: Multiple Choice Sunk cost. Out-of-pocket cost. Period cost. Incremental cost. Opportunity cost.
Answer:
The correct answer to the following question will be Option A "Sunk cost".
Explanation:
A sunk cost includes money also now invested and therefore not recoverable. In industry, the aphorism that one should "probably waste money to make profits" is expressed in the sunken cost trend.It differs from the potential risks that a company will face, including such inventory purchasing costs as well as drug price choices. 2000 Default units including its drug were already manufactured at $14, this expense was already accrued and seems to be negligibleThe other choices corresponding to the specified situation are not. So the proper answer is Alternative A.
Laura Bryant joined Kellogg's straight after university in 2002. She joined the Field Sales team initially. This involved visiting five to ten supermarkets a day to develop relationships at a local level. After two years her hard work was rewarded and she was promoted to Customer Marketing Manager at Head Office. This helped to raise her profile as she wanted to move into marketing. With support from her manager, Laura made the transition from Sales to Marketing as Assistant Brand Manager on Rice Krispies and Frosties. In 2009 she was promoted again to manage the marketing plan for Special K and she is now Brand Manager for Kellogg's Cornflakes. The company has helped motivate her to climb the hierarchy of needs and achieve her career ambitions.
A. Identify and explain the theory of motivation applied by the manager at Kellog’s company. Identify each level and support your answer from examples from the case.
B. Herzberg's motivational factors and Maslow's esteem and self-actualization needs are similar. Explain how organizations can meet these needs.
Answer:
A. The manager at Kellogg's company applied Herzberg's two factors motivational theory. Kellogg provided Laura the enabling environment by creating organizational policies and procedures, supervision, relationships with co-workers and supervisors, physical work environment, job security, promotions, and rewards which propelled Laura to aspire for great responsibilities and achieve her career ambitions.
By applying the motivational factors, such as recognition of Laura's efforts, giving her appropriate responsibilities at each level of her development in the organization, and raising her profile and advancement with promotions, Laura's manager motivated her with what Herberg described as "intrinsic job elements." And the Kellogg company must have provided the extrinsic job elements which enabled both the manager and Laura to perform their jobs well.
B. Herzberg's motivational factors are the intrinsic job elements like achievement, recognition, nature of work, responsibility, advancement, and growth and Maslow's self-esteem and self-actualization needs are similar. Maslow's self-esteem and self-actualization needs indicate that an individual, after satisfying physiological, security, and sociological needs, will aspire to greater needs. These greater needs stated as self-esteem and self-actualization needs are represented by such factors as respect, valued work contribution in a supportive environment, and a sense of personal responsibility and achievement, among others.
Organizations can meet these self-esteem and self-actualization needs (according to Maslow) by being aware of and promoting Herzberg's two factors motivational model, thus creating the enabling environment for individual achievement, advancement, and growth. In Laura's Kellogg Company, she was given a chance (employment), put in relevant positions, promoted several times, and was motivated "to climb the hierarchy of needs and achieve her career ambitions."
Explanation:
Herzberg's two factors motivational theory states that "two factors affect motivation in the workplace." Herzberg called these factors, "the hygiene factors and motivating factors." Hygiene factors are "extrinsic job factors that will cause an employee to work less if they are not present." But, motivating factors encourage an employee to work harder if present.
Maslow identified human needs in a hierarchical order, starting from physiological needs (food and other basic necessities of life), security needs (job security, financial security, etc.), sociological needs (acceptance and love), self-esteem needs (respect, achievement, recognition, etc.), and finally self-actualization needs (creativity, peak experience of life, objectivity, etc.).
If a company applies overhead to production with a predetermined overhead rate, a credit balance in the Factory Overhead account at the end of the period means that: Select one: a. Actual overhead was greater than the overhead amount applied to production. b. The overhead was underapplied for the period. c. The bookkeeper has made an error because the debits don't equal the credits. d. Actual overhead incurred was less than the overhead amount applied to production. e. The balance will be carried forward to the next period as an overhead cost.
Answer:
d) Actual overhead incurred was less than the overhead amount applied to production.
Explanation:
A credit balance in the overhead account implies that overhead is over applied. When overhead is applied the production work in progress,the accounting entries are to debited work in progress and credit the factory overhead the amount of overhead absorbed.
On the other hand, the actual overhead is debited to the factory overhead e account and and credited to their respective indirect material, indirect labour and indirect expenses.
The difference between the amount debited and and credited to the overhead is the over or under applied overhead. A credit and debit balance represent over and under applied overhead respectively
Answer:
Option D. Actual overhead incurred was less than the overhead amount applied to production.
Explanation:
The reason is that during the period, the accountant keeps posting entry of overhead expense at the predetermined rate, which must be adjusted at the end of the period. So if the expense account is been debited, then it means the actual overhead expense was lower than the expense been anticipated. So the right option is D.
