Explanation:
Product Cost (Variable Costing) = All Variable Manufacturing Costs
= $27 + $46 + $4
= $77
Product Cost (Absorption Costing) = All Variable Manufacturing Costs + All Fixed Manufacturing Costs
= $77 + ($199,200/8,300)
= $77 + $24
= $101
Income Statements
Non Manufacturing Costs are treated as a Periodic Cost in Absorption Costing Income Statement
Whilst Both Fixed Manufacturing Costs and Non Manufacturing Costs are treated as a Periodic Cost in Variable Costing Income Statement.
Reconciliation
The difference in Profit is due to Fixed Cost component absorbed in Absorption Costing.
On April 17, 2021, the Loadstone Mining Company purchased the rights to a coal mine. The purchase price plus additional costs necessary to prepare the mine for extraction of the coal totaled $4,950,000. The company expects to extract 990,000 tons of coal during a four-year period. During 2021, 249,000 tons were extracted and sold immediately.Required:
1. Calculate depletion for 2021.
2. Is depletion considered part of the product cost and included in the cost of inventory?
Answer:
1. Depletion for 2021 will be derived if the "tons which were extracted and sold immediately" is divided by "the Depletion per ton"
Depletion for 2021 = Extracted and sold tons in 2021 / depletion per ton
Depletion for 2021 = 249,000 tons * $5 per tons
Depletion for 2021 = $1,245,000
Where as the depletion per ton is be derived when the purchase price plus additional costs necessary is divided extract of tons of coals during the 4 year period.
Depletion per ton = $4,950,000 / 990000
Depletion per ton = $5 per ton
2. Depletion is not considered as part of product cost. It is shown as expense on income statement and reduced from the value of natural resource. So it is equivalent to depreciation of assets.

(Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)1 The optimal value of good q2 isq2 = units. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
Answer:
[tex](0.5 \times 8q_2)+q_2=100\\\\5q_2=100\\\\q_2=20[/tex]
since [tex]q_2 = 20[/tex]
[tex]q_1 = 8*20\\\\q_1=160[/tex]
Explanation:
U(q₁ q₂)
[tex]q_1^{0.8}q_2^{0.2}\\\\P_1= \$0.5 \ P_2=\$1 \ Y=100[/tex]
Budget law can be given by
[tex]P_1q_1+P_2q_2=Y\\\\0.5q_1+q_2=100[/tex]
Lagrangian function can be given by
[tex]L=q_1^{0.8}q_2^{0.2}+ \lambda (100-0.5q_1-q_2)[/tex]
First order condition csn be given by
[tex]\frac{dL}{dq} =0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}-0.5 \lambda=0\\\\0.5 \lambda=0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}---(i)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dL}{dq} =0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}- \lambda=0\\\\ \lambda=0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}---(ii)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dL}{d \lambda} =100-0.5q_1-q_2=0\\\\0.5q_1+q_2=100---(iii)[/tex]
From eqn (i) and eqn (ii) we have
[tex]\frac{0.5 \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}}{0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}} \\\\0.5=\frac{4q_2}{q_1}\\\\q_1=8q_2}[/tex]
Putting [tex]q_1=8q_2[/tex] in euqtion (iii) we have
[tex](0.5 \times 8q_2)+q_2=100\\\\5q_2=100\\\\q_2=20[/tex]

Assume Zap industries reported the following adjusted account balances at year-end. 2019 2018 Accounts Receivable $ 1,690,200 $ 1,340,920 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (92,000 ) (76,300 ) Accounts Receivable, Net $ 1,598,200 $ 1,264,620 Assume the company recorded no write-offs or recoveries during 2019. What was the amount of Bad Debt Expense reported in 2019
Answer:
amount of Bad Debt Expense for 2019 = $92,000
Explanation:
A bad debt expense is a uncollectible receivable amount incurred on a credit sale to a customer, who is no longer able to pay the debt, due to bankruptcy or other financial problems. Companies make provision for these kind of credit losses in the allowance for doubtful accounts, and hence records the amount used from the allowance for doubtful accounts as the bad debt expense.
In our example, the allowance for doubtful account for 2019 is $92,000, hence since it was used to settle part of the credit losses, this becomes the bad debt expense.

Which of the following statements regarding changes in accounting principles is not true? Most changes in accounting principles are retroactively reported. Most changes in accounting principles are only reported in current periods when the principle change takes place. Changes in accounting principles are allowed when new principles are preferable to old ones. Consistency is one of the biggest concerns when a change in accounting principle is undertaken.
Answer:
Most changes in accounting principles are only reported in current periods when the principle change takes place.
Explanation:
Accounting principle can be defined as a general guideline to be followed by accountants or financial institutions when they record and report their financial transactions.
A change in an accounting principle involves a change in an accounting method used.
For instance, an accountant switching between First In, First Out (FIFO) to Last In, First Out (LIFO) method of inventory valuation or by using another depreciation method.
Additionally, an accounting principle should only be changed, if it's applicable to the accounting framework being used such as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Also, it is important to state in the footnotes of the financial statements a full disclosure to highlight the justification for the preferred change and financial implications of this change.
The following are true about the change in accounting principles;
1. Most changes in accounting principles are retroactively reported.
2. Changes in accounting principles are allowed when new principles are preferable to old ones.
3. Consistency is one of the biggest concerns when a change in accounting principle is undertaken.

Explanation:
Segmenting the income statement into divisions helps management to trace the loss making division as Division East. The division has a traceable fixed cost that is far above its contribution to profit. The fixed expense must be studied, otherwise the division may be up for closure.
Juanita is deciding whether to buy a skirt that she wants, as well as where to buy it. Three stores carry the same skirt, but it is more convenient for Juanita to get to some stores than others. For example, she can go to her local store, located 15 minutes away from where she works, and pay a marked-up price of $112 for the skirt:
Store Travel Time Each Way (Minutes) Price of a Skirt (Dollars per skirt)
Local Department Store 15 103
Across Town 30 89
Neighboring City 60 63
Juanita makes $16 an hour at work. She has to take time off work to purchase her skirt, so each hour away from work costs her $16 in lost income. Assume that returning to work takes Juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. As you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling.
Complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of Juanita's time and the total cost of shopping at each location.
Store Opportunity Cost of Time (Dollars) Price of a Skirt (Dollars per skirt) Total Cost (Dollars)
Local Department Store 103
Across Town 89
Neighboring City 63
Assume that Juanita takes opportunity costs and the price of the skirt into consideration when she shops. Juanita will minimize the cost of the skirt if she buys it from the:_______
Answer:
Juanita should purchase the skirt at the neighboring city because the total economic cost will be lowest.
Explanation:
three options:
local store 15 minutes away and a price of $103across town 30 minutes away and a price of $89neighboring city 1 hour away and a price of $63Juanita makes $16 per hour at her work, and her purchase decision includes the opportunity cost of lost wages:
total economic cost:
local store = $103 + [1/4 hours x 2 (round trip) x $16] + (1/2 hour x $16) = $119across town = $89 + [1/2 hours x 2 (round trip) x $16] + (1/2 hour x $16) = $113neighboring city = $63 + [1 hour x 2 (round trip) x $16] + (1/2 hour x $16) = $103Juanita should purchase the skirt at the neighboring city because the total economic cost will be lowest ($103)
Opportunity costs are the benefits lost or extra costs incurred for choosing one activity or investment over another alternative. Economic costs include both accounting costs and opportunity costs.
Sunk costs: Multiple Choice Have already been incurred as a result of past actions. Vary among the alternative courses of action being considered. Are benefits that could have been obtained by following another course of action. Result from unfavorable cost variances.
Answer:
Have already been incurred as a result of past actions.
Explanation:
This form of cost is detailed to be incurred by a company in its past or during its long run and it nothing can be done to change it or it cannot be averted or recovered in the future and proceeding run time of the said company.
Once the company's money is spent, that money is considered a sunk cost. Regardless of what money is spent on, sunk cost are dollars already spent and permanently lost. Sunk costs cannot be refunded or recovered. Monies that provides column or a sunk cost does not really base on a particular spending; as it ranges from different sectoral spendings of the company involved.
On October 31, 2018, your company's records say that the company has $20,419.93 in its checking account. A review of the bank statement shows you have three outstanding checks totaling $8,912.25, and the bank has paid you interest of $27.14 and charged you $22.00 in service charges. The bank statement dated October 31, 2018 would report a balance of: (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $29337.32
Explanation:
The following can be reduced from the question:
Balance as per company's ledger = $20,419.93
Add the outstanding checks= $8912.25
Add interest = $27.14
Less the fee charged by the bank = $22.00
The bank statement dated October 31, 2018 would report a balance of:
=($20,419.93 + $8912.25 + $27.14) - $22.00
= $29337.32
If a fixed asset, such as a computer, were purchased on January 1st for $1,832.00 with an estimated life of 6 years and a salvage or residual value of $123.00, what is the journal entry for monthly expense under straight-line depreciation?
Answer:
Dr depreciation expense $ 23.74
Cr accumulated depreciation $ 23.74
Explanation:
The depreciation per month would be first thing to determine:
Yearly depreciation =Cost of asset-residual value/useful life
cost of asset is $1,832.00
residual value which is disposal value at the end of useful life is $123.00
Useful life is 6 years
yearly depreciation charge= ($1,832.00-$123.00)/6=$ 284.83
Monthly depreciation expense=yearly depreciation charge/12=$284.83/12=$23.74
The journal entry monthly would be a debit to depreciation expense and a credit to accumulated depreciation

MFG Manufacturing sells a product for $40 per unit. The production cost of the product is $21 per unit: direct materials of $8, direct labor of $7, variable overhead of $4 and fixed overhead of $2. The fixed overhead per unit comes from dividing $500,000 of fixed factory overhead by 250,000 units produced. In addition, MFG pays $3 for shipping each unit sold. Finally, MFG has fixed costs outside the factory (such as office building depreciation and salaries) that total $200,000 per year. Assuming breakeven in units was correctly computed to be 20,000 units, breakeven in dollars is:
Answer:
Break-even sales =$800,000
Explanation:
The break-even sales is the amount of revenue that a business must generate that would equate its total costs to total revenue. At the break even sales, the contribution is exactly to total iced cost, and the business makes no profit or loss
Break-even (units) = Total general fixed cost /(selling price- variable cost)
Break-even sales = Break-even (in units) × Selling price
Break-even sales = 20,000 × $40 =$800,000
Break-even sales=$800,000
Electra Company purchased $50,000 worth of office supplies on January 1. Electra expects to use 60 percent of the supplies in the first year and the remainder in the second year. How much should Electra show in its Supplies Expense account at the end of the first fiscal year (ending December 31st)
Answer:
$30,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Purchase value of the office supplies = $50,000
Expected to use supplies in the first year = 60%
So expected to use supplies in the second year = 40%
Based on the above information, the supplies account balance at the end of the first fiscal year is
= Purchase value of the office supplies × Expected to use supplies in the first year
= $50,000 × 60%
= $30,000
We simply multiplied the purchased value with the expected supplies use in the first year so that the balance of the supplies for the first year could come
A corporate CEO wished to relay good news about the prospect of a new technology being created, but was reluctant to do so. Instead, the CEO announces that the firm has decided to increase its dividend. This story is illustrative of what view of dividend relevancy
Answer:
Information signaling
Explanation:
Information signalling is defined as the various actions a firm takes that communicates it's financial outlook. For example if a firm releases a dividend policy it communicates the value of the firm's stock.
In this scenario the CEO announced increase in the firm's dividend. This will convey to investors that the company has a competitive advantage which will result in additional income, so dividends are being raised.
It is an indirect way of announcing good news about the prospect of a new technology being created.
At the end of 2021, Larkspur Co. has accounts receivable of $653,700 and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $24,200. On January 24, 2022, it is learned that the company’s receivable from Madonna Inc. is not collectible and therefore management authorizes a write-off of $4,245.
A) Prepare the journal entry to record the write-off.
Credit
Enter an account title Enter a debit amount Enter a credit amount
What is the cash realizable value of the accounts receivable before the write-off and after the write-off?
Before Write-Off After Write-Off
Cash realizable value $ $
Answer:
January 24, 2022, Madonna Inc.'c account is written off
Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts 4,245
Cr Accounts receivable 4,245
the cash realizable value of the accounts receivable account:
before the write off = $653,700 - $24,200 = $629,500after the write off = ($653,700 - $4,245) - ($24,300 - $4,245) = $629,500The net balance of the account does not change because the allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account that already decreased the accounts receivable balance.

A rich donor gives a hospital $ 960 comma 000 one year from today. Each year after that, the hospital will receive a payment 5 % larger than the previous payment, with the last payment occurring in ten years' time. What is the present value (PV) of this donation, given that the interest rate is 9 %?
Answer:
$7,560,000
Explanation:
To solve this problem, the Present Value (PV) of a growing annuity formula is used.
The Present Value of a growing annuity is the current value of a series of payments which grows or diminishes at a constant rate each period.
The formula below represents the PV of a growing annuity:
[tex]PV=PMT *\frac{(1-(1+g)^{n}*(1+i)^{-n}) }{i-g}[/tex], ............................................. (i)
where,
PV = Present Value = ?
PMT = Periodic Payment = $960,000
i = Interest Rate = 9% = 0.09
g = Growth Rate = 5% = 0.05
n = Number of periods = 10 years
Substituting these values in equation (i), we have
[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-(1+0.05)^{10}*(1+0.09)^{-10} }{0.09-0.05}[/tex]
[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-(1.05^{10})*(1.09)^{-10}) }{0.04}[/tex]
[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-(1.63*0.42))}{0.04}[/tex]
[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-0.685)}{0.04}[/tex]
[tex]PV=960000*\frac{0.315}{0.04}[/tex]
[tex]PV=960000*7.875[/tex]
[tex]PV=$7,560,000[/tex]
PV = $7,560,000
