Production costs chargeable to the Finishing Department in May at Kim Company are materials $7,700, labor $19,700, overhead $18,289, and transferred-in costs $66,801. Equivalent units of production are materials 20,300 and conversion costs 18,900. Kim uses the FIFO method to compute equivalent units. Compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs. Transferred-in costs are considered materials costs. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.25.) Materials cost per unit $ 5.54 Conversion cost per unit $

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the unit cost for material and conversion cost is shown below:

Material Cost per Unit is

= Total Material Cost ÷  Equivalent Units for Materials

,= ($7,700 +  $66,801) ÷ (20,300 units)

= $3.67 per unit

And, the conversion cost per unit is

= (labor cost + overhead cost) ÷ equivalent units for conversion

= ($19,700 + $18,289) ÷ 18,900 units

= $2.01 per unit

3. Using weighted-average cost, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 48 $40 $1,920

Apr. 7 Purchase 128 42 5,376

Jul. 16 Purchase 198 45 8,910

Oct. 6 Purchase 108 46 4,968

For the entire year, the company sells 427 units of inventory for $58 each.

Ending inventory units= 482 - 427= 55

1)

Under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, the ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the lasts units remaining in inventory.

Ending inventory= 55*46= $2,530

COGS= 48*40 + 128*42 + 198*45 + 53*46= $18,644

Revenue= 427*58= $24,766

Gross profit= 24,766 - 18,644= $6,122

2)

Under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, the ending inventory is calculated using the cost of the firsts units remaining in inventory.

Ending inventory= 48*40 + 7*42= $2,214

COGS= 108*46 + 198*45 + 121*42= $18,960

Revenue= 427*58= $24,766

Gross profit= 24,766 - 18,960= $5,806

3)

First, we need to calculate the weighted-average cost:

weighted-average cost= (40 + 42 + 45 + 46) / 4= $43.25

Ending inventory= 55*43.25= $2,378.75

COGS= 427*43.25= $18,467.75

Revenue= 427*58= $24,766

Gross profit= 24,766 - 18,467.75= $6,298.25

A cement manufacturer has supplied the following data: Tons of cement produced and sold 263,000 Sales revenue $ 1,104,600 Variable manufacturing expense $ 432,000 Fixed manufacturing expense $ 229,000 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 94,000 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 219,000 Net operating income $ 130,600 What is the company's unit contribution margin?

Answers

Answer:

$2.2 per unit

Explanation:

With regards to the above and to compute the company's unit contribution margin, we need to first calculate the total contribution margin

Total contribution margin

= Sales revenue - Variable manufacturing expenses - Variable selling and administrative expenses

= $1,104,600 - $432,000 - $94,000

= $578,600

Therefore, the company's unit contribution margin

= Total contribution margin ÷ Number of units produced and sold

= $578,000 ÷ 263,000

= $2.2 per unit

Parking lot staff budget Adventure Park is a large theme park. Staffing for the theme park involves many different labor classifications, one of which is the parking lot staff. The parking lot staff collects parking fees, provides directions, and operates trams. The staff size is a function of the number of daily vehicles. Adventure Park has determined from historical experience that a staff member is needed for every 200 vehicles. Adventure Park estimates staff for both school days and nonschool days. Nonschool days are higher attendance days than school days. The number of expected vehicles for each day is as follows:

School Days Nonschool Days
Number of vehicles per day 3,000 8,000
Number of days per year 165 200

Parking fees are $10 per vehicle. Each parking lot employee is paid $110 per day.

Required:
a. Determine the annual parking lot staff budget for school days, nonschool days, and total.
b. Determine the parking revenue for school days, nonschool days, and total.
c. If depreciation expense and other expenses for running the parking lot were estimated to be $2 million per year, determine the parking lot's budgeted profit.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Determine the annual parking lot staff budget for school days, nonschool days, and total.

For school days:

Number of staff required per day = 3000/20 = 15

Number of staff days per year = 15 × 165 = 2475

Annual parking lot staff budget = 2475 × $110 = $272250

For non school days:

Number of staff required per day = 8000/20 = 40

Number of staff days per year = 40 × 200 = 8000

Annual parking lot staff budget = 800 × $110 = $880,000

Total annual parking lot staff budget = $272250 + $880000 = $1152250

b. Determine the parking revenue for school days, nonschool days, and total.

For school days:

Total number of vehicles per year = 3000 × 165 = 495000

Parking revenue = 495000 × $10 = $4950000

For non school days:

Total number of vehicles per year = 8000 × 200 = 1600000

Parking revenue = 1600000 × $10 = $16000000

Total parking revenue = $4950000 + $16000000 = $20950000

c. If depreciation expense and other expenses for running the parking lot were estimated to be $2 million per year, determine the parking lot's budgeted profit.

Parking revenue = $20,950,000

Less: Parking lot staff payroll = $1152250

Less: Depreciation and other expenses = $2000000

Budgeted profit = $177977500

The manager of the Quick Stop Corner convenience store (which is open 360 days per year) sells four cases of Stein soda each day (1440 cases per year). Order costs are $8.00 per order. The lead time for an order is three days. Annual holding costs are equal to $57.60 per case. If the manager orders 16 cases each time she places an order, how many orders would she place in a year

Answers

Answer:

90 orders she would place in a year

Explanation:

The total annual cases of Stein soda that the manager buys are 1,440 cases. If she were to place 16 cases in a single order then we would divide the total  cases bought in a year by the cases bought in a single order to determine the number of orders the manager would place in a year. As shown below:

No. of orders placed in a year = Annual Total Cases bought / Cases purchased in single order

No. of orders placed in a year = 1,440 / 16

No. of orders placed in a year = 90 orders

On January 1, Year 1, Canseco Plumbing Fixtures purchased equipment for $52,000. Residual value at the end of an estimated four-year service life is expected to be $4,000. The company uses the straight-line method. For how much would each item below be reported at the end of Year 2?

Answers

Answer:

Reported for Year 2 will be :

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $24,000

Book Value = $28,000

Explanation:

Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation for the period that the asset is in use in the business.

Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated Useful Life

therefore,

Depreciation Charge = ($52,000 - $4,000) ÷ 4

                                     = $12,000

we know that,

Accumulated depreciation = Sum of all depreciation to date

and

Book Value is the Costs less Accumulated depreciation

thus,

Balances for the Next 2 years will be as follows

Year 1

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $12,000

Book Value = $40,000

Year 2

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $24,000

Book Value = $28,000

Agee Storage issued 33 million shares of its $1 par common stock at $21 per share several years ago. Last year, for the first time, Agee reacquired 1 million shares at $19 per share. Assuming that Agee retires shares it reacquires (restores their status to that of authorized but unissued shares), by what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline if it now reacquires 1 million shares at $24 per share?

Answers

Answer:

$23 million

Explanation:

Calculation to determine at what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline

First step is to calculate the Cash paid for the first repurchase

Cash paid for the first repurchase = 1 million * 19

Cash paid for the first repurchase = $19 million

Second step is to calculate the Value of first purchase

Value of first purchase = 1 million * 21

Value of first purchase = $21 million

Third step is to calculate the Benefit on first repurchase

Benefit on first repurchase = 21 million - 19 million

Benefit on first repurchase = $2 million

Fourth step is to calculate Cash paid for second repurchase

Cash paid for second repurchase = 1 million * 24

Cash paid for second repurchase = $24 million

Fifth step is to calculate the Value of second purchase = Reacquired shares * Common stock price

Value of second purchase = 1 million * 21

Value of second purchase = $21 million

Last step is to calculate the Decline in total paid-in capital using this formula

Decline in total paid-in capital= Benefit on first repurchase + Value of second purchase

Decline in total paid-in capital = 2 million + 21 million

Decline in total paid-in capital = $23 million

Therefore what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline is $23 million

Graymont Industries purchases Solvate, a chemical compound used in several of its products, from ChemMaster. ChemMaster has just increased the list price of Solvate to $6.10 per gallon. However, because Graymont purchases a high volume of Solvate, ChemMaster grants the company a 14 percent discount off the list price. Charges for shipping Solvate from ChemMaster to Graymont's factory are $130 for a shipment of twenty-five 49-gallon drums. Special storage requirements cost $0.59 per gallon.
Calculate Graymont's standard price for a gallon of Solvate. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 3.51)

Answers

Answer:

the standard price for a gallon of Solvate is $5,942 per gallon

Explanation:

The computation of the standard price for a gallon of Solvate is shown below:

List Price $6.1 per gallon

Less: Discount at 14% 0.854 per gallon

Charges (130 ÷ (25 × 49) 0.106 per gallon

Special Storage $0.59 per gallon

Total Cost $5.942 per gallon

Hence, the standard price for a gallon of Solvate is $5,942 per gallon

Chavez S.A., a Venezuelan company, wishes to borrow $8,000,000 for eight weeks (maturity). A rate of 6.250% per year is quoted by potential lenders in Great Britain, and Switzerland. British, and the Swiss-Euro bond definitions of interest (day count conventions) are 56 days and 60 days, respectively. Numbers of days in a financial year are 360. From which source should Chavez borrow?

Answers

Answer:

Chavez should borrow from the British market.

Explanation:

We need to compare the interest payment of both markets to make the decision

First, calculate the Interest payment in case, if borrowed from the British market

Interest Payment ( British ) = Principal Value x Interest rate x Time fraction

Interest Payment ( British ) = $8,000,000 x 6.250% x 56/360

Interest Payment ( British ) = $77,777.78

First, calculate the Interest payment in case if borrowed from Swiss market

Interest Payment ( Swiss ) = Principal Value x Interest rate x Time fraction

Interest Payment ( Swiss ) = $8,000,000 x 6.250% x 60/360

Interest Payment ( Swiss ) = $83,333.33

As the British market offers a lower rate, Chavez should borrow from the British market.

Signal mistakenly produced 1,075 defective cell phones. The phones cost $70 each to produce. A salvage company will buy the defective phones as they are for $39 each. It would cost Signal $82 per phone to rework the phones. If the phones are reworked, Signal could sell them for $146 each. Signal has excess capacity. Should Signal scrap or rework the phones

Answers

Answer: Rework the phones

Explanation:

The phones have already been produced so the cost price of $70 does not matter as it is a sunk cost.

The decision the company makes between scrap and reworking will depend on which option bring in more money.

Scrap = $39

Reworking:

= Price after reworking - Cost to rework

= 146 - 82

= $64

Incremental income of reworking over scrap:

= 1,075 * (64 - 39)

= $‭26,875‬

Signal makes an incremental income of $‭26,875‬ if they rework the phones so they should do that.

On January 1, 2021, Bramble Corp., declared a 10% stock dividend on its common stock when the fair value of the common stock was $30 per share. Stockholders' equity before the stock dividend was declared consisted of:
Common stock, $10 par value, authorized 200,000 shares;
issued and outstanding 115000 shares $1150000

What was the effect on Dodd's retained earnings as a result of the above transaction?
a. $180,000 decrease.
b. $360,000 decrease.
c. $600,000 decrease.
d. $300,000 decrease.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The effect on Dodd's retained earnings as a result of the above transaction will be calculated as:

Common stock = 115000

Percent of stock dividend = 10%

Stock dividend = 10% × 115000 = 11500

Price per share = $30

Stock dividend = $30 × 11500 = $345000

Therefore, there'll be a $345000 decrease on Dodd's retained earnings. The options given are incorrect.

Assuming, the common stock was 120,000, then the answer will have been (120,000 × $3) = $360,000 decrease.

Thomas Company has a sales budget for next month of $1,000,000. Cost of goods sold is expected to be 25 percent of sales. All goods are paid for in the month following purchase. The beginning inventory of merchandise is $50,000, and an ending inventory of $64,000 is desired. Beginning accounts payable is $160,000. For Thomas Company, the ending accounts payable should be:

Answers

Answer:

the ending account payable is $264,000

Explanation:

The computation of the ending account payable is shown below;

= Required material + ending inventory - beginning inventory

= ($1,000,000 × 25%) + $64,000 - $50,000

= $264,000

The Kleins currently use part time, contract employees hired through the vocational rehabilitation program. Before hiring any permanent, full-time employees, they want to better understand the role small businesses play when it comes to job creation. Which of the following explanations should you provide?

a. Working for a small business necessarily means forgoing top pay.
b. Small companies typically employ the owner or founder, but do not hire other employees.
c. Almost one out of four workers in the United States works for a company that has fewer than 20 employees.
d. Less than 1% of U.S. companies have 500 or more employees.

Answers

Answer:

D. Less than 1% of U.S. companies have 500 or more employees.

Explanation:

From statistics, about 99.9% of the businesses in the united states of America are small businesses. This is to say that these small businesses are major employers of labour. The small business is an independent business that has less than 500 people in it's labor force. So they play a very crucial role in job creation. Especially since only about 1% of the big companies up to 500 or more employees. The small business creates job opportunities for a greater percentage of the population.
