A small clothing company plans to sell a new line of shirts. The selling price will be $35 per shirt. The labor costs will be $5 per shirt. The cost of materials will be $10 per shirt. The administrative costs of operating the company are estimated to be $60,000 annually and the sales and marketing expenses are $20,000 a year. How many shirts it has to sell in order to break-even?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is 4,000 shirts.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Selling price = $35

Labor cost = $5

Cost of material = $10

So, Contribution margin amount = $35 - $5 - $10 = $20

And fixed cost = $60,000 + $20,000 = $80,000

So, we can calculate the breakeven units by using following formula:

Breakeven units = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin

= $80,000 ÷ $20

= 4,000 shirts

Dell is a product of the Digby company. Digby's sales forecast for Dell is 1856 units. Digby wants to have an extra 10% of units on hand above and beyond their forecast in case sales are better than expected. (They would risk the possibility of excess inventory carrying charges rather than risk lost profits on a stock out.) Taking current inventory into account, what will Dell's Production After Adjustment have to be in order to have a 10% reserve of units available for sale

Answers

Answer:

Dell's Production After Adjustment will be 2,041 units

Explanation:

According to the given data we have that Dell forecast for sales is 1856 and there considering the 10% reserve first we would need to calculate the number of units after the reserve of 10% as follows:

10% reserve units=0.10×1856=185 units

Therefore, total required units=1,856+185

total required units=2,041 units

Dell's Production After Adjustment will be 2,041 units

Hammerstein Corporation offers a variety of share-based compensation plans to employees. Under its restricted stock award plan, the company, on January 1, 2018, granted 2 million of its $1 par common shares to various division managers. The shares are subject to forfeiture if employment is terminated within four years. The common shares have a market price of $20.4 per share on the award date. Required: 1. Determine the total compensation cost from these restricted shares. 2. & 3. Prepare the appropriate journal entries. 4. Suppose a 10% forfeiture rate was expected prior to vesting. Determine the total compensation cost, assuming the company follows the fair value approach and chooses to anticipate forfeitures at the grant date.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

1)

Fair value per share = $20.4

Number of Share = 2 million

Fair value of award = Fair value per share ×Number of Share

= $20.4 × 2 million

= $40.8 million

2) No Entry

3)

Compensation expense($40.8 million÷4 years) $10.2 million

          To Paid in capital - restricted stock($20.4-$10.2) $10.2  million

(Being the compensation expense is recorded)

4)

Fair value per share = $20.4

Share granted = 2 million

(100%-10%) forfeiture rate = 90%

fair value of award = $20.4×2×90%

= $36.72 million

Dr. Cash                                 $4,326,000

Cr. Premium on Bond           $126,000

Cr. Bond Payable Account   $4,200,000

Explanation:

The difference between the face value of the bond and the sale value of the bond is known as premium or the discount on the bond. If the face value is higher from the sale value the bond is issued on the discount and if the sale value of the bond is higher than the face value the bond is issued on the premium.

In this question the bond is issued on premium and the amount of premium is calculated as follow

Premium on the Bond =  Sale value - Face value = ($4,200,000 x 103%) - $4,200,000 = $126,000

The Premium will be amortized during the life of the bond  to maturity and deducted from the interest expense.

In October, Pine Company reports 22,000 actual direct labor hours, and it incurs $198,900 of manufacturing overhead costs. Standard hours allowed for the work done is 22,100 hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $9.25 per direct labor hour. In addition, the flexible manufacturing overhead budget shows that budgeted costs are $7.19 variable per direct labor hour and $51,500 fixed. Compute the overhead volume variance. Normal capacity was 25,000 direct labor hours. Overhead Volume Variance

Answers

Answer:

$5,974  U

Explanation:

a). Variable Cost = Standard Hours × Variable Per Direct Labor

= 22,100 hours × $7.19 = $158,899

Predetermined Overhead Charged to Production = Standard Hours × Overhead Rate Per Direct Labor

= 22,100 hours × $9.25 = $204,425

Budgeted Overhead Volume Variance = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost - Predetermined Overhead Charged to Production

=$158,889 + $51,500 - $204,425 = $5,974  U

b). Alternative Method:-

Normal Capacity = 25,000

Standard Hours = 22,100

Fixed Overhead Rate at Normal Capacity = Fixed Cost ÷ Normal Capacity Hours

= $51,500 ÷ 25,000 = $2.06

Overhead Volume Variance = (Normal Capacity - Standard Hours) × Fixed Overhead Rate at Normal Capacity

= (25,000 - 22,100) × 2.06 = 2,900 × $2.06 = $5,974  U

The overhead volume variance is calculated as the difference between actual hours and standard hours, multiplied by the predetermined overhead rate.

Overhead Volume Variance:

To calculate the overhead volume variance, we use the formula:

Overhead Volume Variance = (Actual Hours - Standard Hours) x Predetermined Overhead Rate

Plugging in the values, the calculation would be: (22,000 - 22,100) x $9.25 = -$925 Overhead Volume Variance.

Answers

Answer:

$6,000

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We can calculate the Interest Expenses of Total Bond by using following formula:-

Interest Expenses = Face Value × Rate of Bonds

= $56,000 × 10%

= $5,600

Amortization Expenses = (Bond Issue Price - Bond Face Value) ÷ Bond Term

= ($60,000 - $56,000) ÷ 10

= $400

Interest Expenses of Total Bond = Interest Expenses + Amortization Expenses

= $5,600 + $400

= $6,000

Nielson Corp. sells its product for $6,600 per unit. Variable costs per unit are: manufacturing, $3,600, and selling and administrative, $75.

A) $4,800.

B) $8,400.

C) $9,600.

D) $13,200.

Answers

Answer:

B) $8,400

Explanation:

Absorption costing consider all the cost incurred in production either variable or fixed as production cost.

As we know variable cost vary with the change in the sale but the fixed costs remains constant whatever the level of sale is.

As per given data

Selling price = $6,600

Variable manufacturing cost = $3,600

Manufacturing Fixed Cost = $18,000

Total cost per unit = $3,600 + $18,000/20 = $4,500

Sales = Selling price x Numbers of units sold = $6,600 x 16 = $105,600

Cost of goods sold = Units sold x Cost per unit = 16 units x $4,500 = $72,000

Gross income = Sales - Cost of Goods sold = $105,600 - $72,000 = $33,600

Selling and Admin Cost = Variable cost + Fixed = (16 x $75) + $24,000 = $25,200

Net Income = Gross Income - Selling and Admin cost = $33,600 - $25,200 = $8,400

The Income from operation under absorption costing for 2017 is $8,400.

Cost per unit = Variable Manufacturing per unit + Fixed Manufacturing per unit

Cost per unit = $3,600 + $18,000 / 20

Cost per unit = $3,600 + $900

Cost per unit = $4,500

Sales price = Selling Price per unit * Units Sold

Sales price = $6,600 * 16

Sales price = $105,600

Cost of Goods Sold = Cost per unit * Units Sold

Cost of Goods Sold = $4,500 * 16

Cost of Goods Sold = $72,000

Selling & Administrative Expense = Variable Selling and Administrative Expense * Units Sold + Fixed Selling and Administrative Expense

Selling & Administrative Expense = $75 * 16 + $24,000

Selling & Administrative Expense = $25,200

Income from Operation = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold - Selling and Administrative Expense

Income from Operation = $105,600 - $72,000 - $25,200

Income from Operation = $8,400

Hence, the Income from operation under absorption costing for 2017 is $8,400.

Therefore, the Option B is correct.

Use the following scenario to answer the following questions: Babak owns a sports practice facility called Boston Batting Cages in Boston, Massachusetts. During the first year of operation, Boston Batting Cages incurred many costs. In that year, Babak spent $5,000 on labor, $2,000 on maintenance, and $1,000 on electricity. Babak took out a loan to open his business, in which he would have earned $1,500, and his previous job, which he could get back at any time, paid him $50,000. If Boston Batting Cages received $80,000 in revenues, what were the economics profits

Answers

Answer:

$20,500

Explanation:

Economic profit is the difference between the total revenue generated and the total explicit (direct) and implicit  (Indirect cost ) incurred

Total revenue  - (explicit cost + implicit cost )

Revenue                        80,000

Explicit cost

Labor                                                             5000

maintenance                                                2000

Electricity                                                      1000

Total                               (8000)

Implicit cost                                                

loan revenue forgone                                  1500

Previous earning                                           50000

Total                               (51,500)

Economic profit            20,500

Final answer:

The economic profits for Boston Batting Cages are calculated by subtracting both explicit and implicit costs from the revenues. The business earned an economic profit of $20,500 after accounting for all costs.

Explanation:

To calculate the economic profits for Babak's business, Boston Batting Cages, we need to consider both explicit and implicit costs against the revenues. Explicit costs are the direct, out-of-pocket expenses for the business operation, whereas implicit costs represent the opportunity costs of using resources that could be employed elsewhere.

Explicit Costs: Labor ($5,000) + Maintenance ($2,000) + Electricity ($1,000) = $8,000Implicit Costs: Foregone salary ($50,000) + Foregone interest on loan ($1,500) = $51,500Total Costs: $8,000 (explicit) + $51,500 (implicit) = $59,500Revenues: $80,000Economic Profit: Revenues - Total Costs = $80,000 - $59,500 = $20,500

Economic profits consider both the tangible costs of running the business and the opportunity costs, providing a comprehensive picture of the business's true profitability.

Debt and equity are not. No dividends are paid. Next year’s sales are projected to be $9,996. What is the external financing needed? (Do not round intermed

Answers

Answer: $268.10

Explanation:

Assets and Costs are proportional to sales meaning they grow at the same rate.

Sales rate of growth is,

= (9,996-8,400)/8400

=19%

Assuming that costs grew by 19% then Costs next year will be ,

= 6,390 * (1 + 0.19)

= $7,604.1

Meaning that Net Income is,

= Sales - Costs.

= 9,996 - 7,604.1

= $2,391.9

Retained earnings or net income is added to Equity

Total Equity= 8,000 + 2391.9

Total Equity =$10,391.90

Total Assets also grew by 19% as per the question so,

= 14,000* (1 + 0.19)

=$16,660

Going by the Accounting Equation,

Total assets = Total equity + Total debt

Hence external financing needed

16,660 = 10391.9 + 6000 + Additional funding

Additional funding = 16,660 - 10391.9 - 6,000

Additional funding = $268.10

Final answer:

The external financing needed for Kerch, Inc. to meet the projected increase in sales for the next year, considering no changes in the debt level and all net income is retained, is $268.10.

Explanation:

Calculating External Financing Needed for Kerch, Inc.

To calculate the external financing needed for Kerch, Inc., we need to evaluate the changes in the company's balance sheet that will occur due to the projected increase in sales. Since assets and costs are proportional to sales, we can forecast these figures for the next year based on the new sales projection of $9,996.

First, we determine the percentage increase in sales:
$9,996 (Projected Sales) / $8,400 (Current Sales) = 1.19, which is a 19% increase in sales.

Next, we apply this percentage to the current assets to estimate the next year's assets:
$14,000 (Current Assets) * 1.19 (Percentage Increase) = $16,660 (Projected Assets).

Similarly, we calculate the projected costs:
$6,390 (Current Costs) * 1.19 (Percentage Increase) = $7,604.10 (Projected Costs).

Now we calculate the projected net income. Note that since there are no taxes or dividends, net income will equal sales minus costs:
$9,996 (Projected Sales) - $7,604.10 (Projected Costs) = $2,391.90 (Projected Net Income).

Given that there are no dividends and net income is added to equity, the new equity value will be:
$8,000 (Current Equity) + $2,391.90 (Projected Net Income) = $10,391.90 (Projected Equity).

Since debt is not proportional to sales, it remains at $6,000.

Total projected financing required (Projected Assets) = Projected Debt + Projected Equity,
$16,660 (Total Projected Financing) - $6,000 (Debt) - $10,391.90 (Equity) = $268.10 (External Financing Needed).

The external financing needed for Kerch, Inc. to support the projected increase in sales is $268.10.

(Note: Round your YTM rate to two decimal place.) 6.53% 7.51% 5.22% 7.84%

Answers

Answer:

6.53%      

Explanation:

For computing the after cost of debt we need to use the RATE formula i.e to be shown in attached spreadsheet. Kindly find it below:

Given that,  

Present value = $1,050.76

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 10% = $100

NPER = 5 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying this above formula

1. The pretax cost of debt is 8.70

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 8.70% × ( 1 - 0.25)

= 6.53%

Packaging department  = 8/13*147941 =91041

Final answer:

The Mixing Department of the Annapolis Company will be allocated approximately $44,231 of the total Maintenance Services cost, based on the proportion of its employees to the total number of employees in the production departments.

Explanation:

The Maintenance Services costs will be divided equally between the Mixing Department and the Packaging Department as those are the two production departments. Given that there are 5 employees in the Mixing Department and 8 in the Packaging Department, this constitutes a total of 13 production employees.

Each department's allocation will be based on the proportion of its employees to the total number of employees. For the Mixing Department, this is 5/13 or about 38.4615% (rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent). Therefore, the Mixing Department will be allocated about 38.4615% of the total Maintenance Services cost of $115,000.

Applying this percentage to the total cost, the allocation for the Mixing Department is approximately $44,231 (rounded to the nearest whole dollar).

Explanation:

The current price of the stock can be calculated using the dividend discount model. The formula to find the current price of a stock using DDM is P = D / (R - G), where P is the current price, D is the dividend paid per share, R is the required return rate, and G is the dividend growth rate.

a. Current price = $1.20 / (0.10 - 0.04) = $20.00

b. To find the price in three years, you can use the formula P3 = D3 / (R - G), where D3 is the dividend in three years. Calculate D3 first: D3 = $1.20 * (1 + 0.04) ³ = $1.20 * 1.04 ^ 3 = $1.2990 (approx).

Now calculate the price in three years: P3 = $1.2990 / (0.10 - 0.04) = $21.65

c.The price in ten years can be found using the formula P10 = D10 / (R - G), where D10 is the dividend in ten years. Calculate D10 first using the growth rate: D10 = $1.20 * (1 + 0.04) ¹⁰ = $1.20 * 1.04¹⁰ = $2.0498 (approx).

Now find the price in ten years: P10 = $2.0498 / (0.10 - 0.04) = $34.16

MC Qu. 112 A company is considering... A company is considering the purchase of new equipment for $105,000. The projected annual net cash flows are $41,000. The machine has a useful life of 3 years and no salvage value. Management of the company requires a 8% return on investment. The present value of an annuity of $1 for various periods follows: Period Present value of an annuity of $1 at 8% 1 0.9259 2 1.7833 3 2.5771 What is the net present value of this machine assuming all cash flows occur at year-end

Answers

Answer:

Net Present Value =  $660.98  

Explanation:

The Net present value (NPV) is the difference between the Present value (PV) of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good and profitable investment project and a negative figure implies the opposite.

NPV of an investment:  

NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of cash outflow  

PV of cash inflow = A× (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- annul cash inflow, r- 8%, n- 3

PV of cash inflow= 41,000× (1- 1.08^(-3))/0.08

=   105,660.98  

Initial cost = 105,000

NPV =  105,660.98  - 105,000

= $  660.98

Mather Company purchased equipment on January 1, 2018 at a total invoice cost of $336,000; additional costs of $6,000 for freight and $30,000 for installation were incurred. The equipment has an estimated salvage value of $12,000 and an estimated useful life of five years. The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 if the straight-line method of depreciation is used is:


$148,800.


$129,600.


$144,000.


$132,000.

Answers

Answer:

The accumulated depreciation at 31 December 2019 is $144000

Explanation:

When recording the purchase of a fixed asset, the asset should be recognized at cost at which the asset is purchased plus all the necessary costs that are incurred to bring the asset to the location and in the condition necessary to use as required and intended by the management.

The equipment purchased by Mather should be recorded as,

Cost of equipment = 336000  +  6000  +  30000  =  $372000

The freight and installation are non recurring and necessary expenses to bring the asset to the location and in the condition for use as intended by management. So, these expenses are capitalized.

The straight line depreciation charges a constant depreciation expense every year through out the useful life of the asset.

Straight line depreciation =  (Cost - Salvage Value) / estimated useful life

Straight line depreciation per year = (372000 - 12000) / 5

Straight line depreciation per year = $72000

So, the accumulated depreciation at 31 December 2019 is,

Accumulated depreciation = 72000 + 72000 = $144000

Answers

Answer:

The Capability Index for this process is 1.04. The right answer is B

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

μ = 31 Seconds

USL = 45

LSL = 10

Standard deviation σ= 4.5

Therefore, in order to calculate the Capability Index for this process we would have to use the following formula:

Cpk=Min( USL-μ  ,  μ- LSL)

               3×σ            3×σ

Cpk=Min( 45-31  ,  31- 10)

               3×4.5      3×4.5

Cpk = Min ( 1.04,1.56) = 1.04

The Capability Index for this process is 1.04

It is a supply chain tool that consolidates multiple inventory locations into a single one.

It is a centralized system that helps with stock keeping. It makes projections easier and helps manage shortfalls that may arise due to demand uncertainty.

It is cost effective by reducing cost of employing more staff and reduces the percentage error due to the centralized portal.

By reducing operational costs, profit is maximized.

Dapper Corporation had only one job in process on May 1. The job had been charged with $1,710 of direct materials, $3,500 of direct labor, and $6,280 of manufacturing overhead cost. The company assigns overhead cost to jobs using the predetermined overhead rate of $23.50 per direct labor-hour.During May, the following activity was recorded:Raw materials (all direct materials): Beginning balance $ 7,800Purchased during the month $26,800Used in production $30,300Labor: Direct labor-hours worked during the month 1,700Direct labor cost incurred $21,250Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred $38,100Inventories: Raw materials, May 30 ? Work in process, May 30 $20,000Work in process inventory on May 30 contains $3,125 of direct labor cost. Raw materials consist solely of items that are classified as direct materials.The balance in the raw materials inventory account on May 30 was:____________a) $4,180b) $4,300c) $4,420d) $4,820

Answers

Answer:

b. $4,300

Explanation:

Data provided

Beginning balance = $7,800

Purchases = $26,800

Used in Production = $30,300

The computation of balance in the raw materials inventory is shown below:-

Balance in the raw materials inventory = Beginning balance + Purchases - Used in production

= $7,800 + $26,800 - $30,300

= $34,600 - $30,300

= $4,300

Therefore for computing the ending inventory we simply applied the above formula.

The Really Reliable Company produces roller bearings used in a high-wear application in diesel locomotives. The exponentially distributed mean time to failure for these roller bearings has been determined to be 10,000 hours of operation. Really Reliable wants to determine an appropriate warranty period (in hours) such that it will have to provide warranty service for no more than 0.04% of the roller bearings it produces.

Answers

Answer:

Appropriate warranty period = 4 hours

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Here, mean = 10,000 = 1/λ

Let appropriate warranty period = t

Hence, 0.0004 = 1-e^-λt

0.0004 = 1-e^(t/10,000)

e^(t/10,000) = 0.9996

Taking ln on both the sides and then solving,

t/10,000 = 0.0004

t = 4 hours

Hence, Appropriate warranty period = 4 hours

The student's question involves applying statistical principles to practical problems, such as deciding on warranty periods based on exponential distribution, testing claims with hypothesis testing, and calculating service times with normal distributions.

The student's question pertains to the determination of an appropriate warranty period for roller bearings produced by The Really Reliable Company, given that the mean time to failure is 10,000 hours and they wish to limit warranty services to 0.04% of produced units. This problem involves the use of exponential distribution and probability to find the time at which the cumulative distribution function (CDF) is equal to 99.96%, corresponding to the 0.04% failure rate allowed under warranty.

To address the tire claim study, a hypothesis testing will be employed using the standard deviation and mean from both the past studies and recent survey to decide if the data significantly contradict the claim.

Regarding the preventive maintenance for air conditioners, with an average service time of one hour and a standard deviation of one hour, the probability that the service time will be less than 1.1 hours needs to be calculated using a normal distribution. The result will help determine if 1.1 hours per technician is a sufficient average budgeted time to service each unit.

Explanation:

The concept of equivalent units measures the number of units completed in terms of completion stage of the the inputs.

Final answer:

A production cost report using the weighted-average method includes calculating equivalent units for direct materials and conversion costs and computing the cost per equivalent unit. Costs are summed and divided by the equivalent units; the report shows production efficiency and cost management.

Explanation:

The question you've presented revolves around the preparation of a production cost report for the Blending Department at ArkYork Paints using the weighted-average method. Since no specific cost data was provided, a general approach to creating such a report includes calculating the equivalent units of production (EUP) for both direct materials and conversion costs, computing the cost per equivalent unit, and then preparing a summary of costs for units transferred out and ending work in process.

In the scenario described, 500 gallons were in process at the start of the month, and an additional 9,000 gallons were started during the month. By the month's end, 6,500 gallons were completed and the remaining 3,000 gallons were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 10% complete for conversion costs. To determine the EUP, one would add the completed gallons to the equivalent completed portion of the ending work in process.

Costs for direct materials and conversion must be added to those carried over from the prior period (beginning inventory) plus those added during the current period. The total costs are then divided by equivalent units to obtain the cost per equivalent unit. The report would summarize these figures and provide insights into the department's production efficiency and cost management.

Suppose you know that a company’s stock currently sells for $66.50 per share and the required return on the stock is 9 percent. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between capital gains yield and dividend yield. If it’s the company’s policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share?

Answers

Answer:

$2.86

Explanation:

The computation of current dividend per share is shown below:-

Dividend yield = 9% × 2

= 4.5%

Current price = Company stock × Dividend yield

= $66.50 × 4.5%

= 2.9925

Current dividend per share = Current price ÷ (1 + Dividend yield percentage)

= 2.9925 ÷ (1 + 0.045)

= 2.9925 ÷ 1.045

= $2.86

So, for computing the current dividend per share we simply applied the above formula.

Final answer:

To calculate the current dividend per share, the company's constant growth rate in dividends implies that the dividend yield is equal to the growth rate (4.5% in this scenario). Multiplying the current stock price of $66.50 by the dividend yield gives us the current dividend per share, which is $2.9925.

Explanation:

The student is asking about calculating the current dividend per share based on the information given about a company's stock price, the total return, and the required return. Given that the total return is equally split between capital gains yield and dividend yield, and the required return on the stock is 9%, each yield would thus be 4.5% (half of the total required return).

Since the company maintains a constant growth rate in its dividends, we can use the Gordon Growth Model (also known as the Dividend Discount Model) which states that the current stock price (P0) equals the dividend next year (D1) divided by the required return (r) minus the dividend growth rate (g). In this case, we know that the current stock price (P0) is $66.50, the required return (r) is 9%, and we've identified the dividend yield (which is the same as the capital gains yield in this example) to be 4.5% which is also the growth rate (g). To find the current dividend (D0), we can rearrange the formula to D0 = P0 × dividend yield. So, the current dividend per share would be $66.50 × 4.5%, which equals $2.9925 per share.

Money, Inc., a calendar year S corporation in Denton, Texas, has two unrelated shareholders, each owning 50% of the stock. Both shareholder record a $400,000 stock basis as of January 1. At the beginning of the tax year, Money reports balances in AAA of $300,000 and AEP of $600,000. During the year, Money generates operating income of $100,000. At the end of the year, Money distributes securities worth $1,000,000, with an adjusted basis of $800,000. The two shareholders consent to an AAA bypass election. What is the Federal income tax effects of these transactions for the shareholders? If an amount is zero, enter "0". Each shareholder receives a $ taxable distribution and a $ tax-free distribution from AAA. The AAA is $ at the end of the year, and each shareholder's basis is $ . AEP is reduced to $ .

Answers

Answer:

Both shareholder has $200,000 of dividend income resulting from the distribution.

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Now,

When the securities are issued, there will be a gain recognized  of $200,000 to Money Inc. thus, The $200,000 = $1 million - $800,000.

The AAA will increase by $200,000.

This  gain known will flow through to the two shareholders of Money Inc. as   50% is owned  by both shareholders and  the stock amount for each shareholder will be $200,000/2 = $100,000.

so, the basis of stock for each shareholder will increase by $100,000.

Now,

The distribution before AAA of securities the result will be  = 300,000+100,000+200,000 = $600,000.

Then,

A  $1 million distribution will be acted on first as coming first from AAA to the extent of $600,000.the amount balanced will be  $1 million - $600,000 = $400,000. This will be serve as coming from AEP.

so,

The AAA  is = 600,000 – 600,000 = 0.

The basis for each shareholder before distribution will be = 400,000+100,000+50,000 = 550,000.

The  portion of non taxable  of the above distribution = 300,000 from AAA.

Hence,the  basis = 550,000 – 300,000 =250,000

Therefore, each shareholder has $200,000 of dividend income resulting from the distribution.

Varto Company has 12,600 units of its sole product in inventory that it produced last year at a cost of $31 each. This year’s model is superior to last year’s, and the 12,600 units cannot be sold at last year’s regular selling price of $49 each. Varto has two alternatives for these items: (1) they can be sold to a wholesaler for $13 each or (2) they can be processed further at a cost of $272,300 and then sold for $34 each. Should Varto sell the products as is or process further and then sell them?

Answers

Answer:

It is more profitable to sell the units as-is.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of units= 12,600

Varto has two alternatives for these items:

(1) they can be sold to a wholesaler for $13 each

(2) they can be processed further for $272,300 and then sold for $34 each.

The first cost of $31 is a sunk cost, it will remain no matter which option is chosen. We will not take it into account for the decision making process.

Option 1:

Effect on income= 12,600*13= $163,800

Option 2:

Effect on income= 12,600*34 - 272,300= $156,100

It is more profitable to sell the units as-is.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The number of units processed is

= Beginning work in process units + completed and started units - transferred out units

= 440 units + 1,440 units - 1,600 units

= 280 units

b. The material cost per unit is

= Total cost ÷ equivalent units

where,

Total cost is

= Opening work in process + material cost

= $2,220 + $6,610

= $8,830

And, the equivalent units is

= Units transferred out + ending work in process

= 1,600 + 280

= 1,880

So, the material cost per unit is

= $8,830 ÷ 1,880 units

= $4.70

c. The conversion cost per unit is

= Total cost ÷ equivalent units

where,

Total cost is

= Opening work in process + labor cost + overhead cost

= $1,720 + $4,800 + $1,300

= $7,820

And, the equivalent units is

= Units transferred out + ending work in process × completion percentage

= 1,600 + 280 × 40%

= 1,712

So, the material cost per unit is

= $7,820 ÷ 1,712 units

= $4.57
