The ending inventories of chemicals for each month are 36,135, 33,825 and 41,456 gallons. Also, the beginning inventory for January is 36,135 gallons.

<h3>The table for planned production.</h3>

In order to calculate the ending inventory of chemicals for the three months, we would create a table for planned production as follows:

<u>                                                 January         February          March___</u>

Units to be produced               43,800          41,000             50,250

<u>Direct materials per unit             5.5                5.5                    5.5 ___</u>

Total direct materials               240,900        225,500          276,375

Since the company's policy requires ending inventories of raw materials for each month to be 15% of the next month's production needs, we have:

December = 15/100 × 240,900 = 36,135 gallons.

January = 15/100 × 225,500 = 33,825 gallons.

February = 15/100 × 276,375 = 41,456 gallons.

March = Nil.

Also, the beginning inventory of chemicals for January is given by December's ending inventory of 36,135 gallons.

Patrick Inc. makes industrial solvents sold in 5-gallon drum containers. Planned production in units for the first 3 months of the coming year is:

January 43,800

February 41,000

March 50,250

Each drum requires 5.5 gallons of chemicals and one plastic drum container. Company policy requires that ending inventories of raw materials for each month be 15% of the next month's production needs. That policy was met for the ending inventory of December in the prior year. The cost of one gallon of chemicals is $2.00. The cost of one drum is $1.60. Calculate the ending inventory of chemicals in gallons for December of the prior year, and for January and February. What is the beginning inventory of chemicals for January?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

(A) A wholly owned Subsidiary

Explanation:

A wholly owned subsidiary is a company that is completely owned by another company called the Parent/Holding Company. The parent company will hold all (100%) of the subsidiary's common stock.

A wholly owned subsidiary allows the parent company to diversify, manage, and possibly reduce its risk.

Some of the disadvantages of a wholly owned subsidiary include the possibility of multiple taxation, lack of business focus, and conflicting interest between subsidiaries and the parent company if not properly managed.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

11.67 years

Explanation:

The rule of 70 requires that in determining when the economy growth rate will double its current growth rate, the appropriate thing to do is divide 70 by the current growth rate of 6% per year.

The economy's growth rate of 6%  has its percentage ignored when the calculation is carried out.

=70/6= 11.67  

The current economy's growth rate would double in 11.67 years' time

On January 1, 2013, Craig Company paid the premium on a four-year insurance policy in the amount of $12,000. At that time, the f
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

option (C) $3,000

Explanation:

Data provided:

Policy duration = 4 years

Policy amount = $12,000

Date on which premium is paid = January 1, 2013

Date on which entry is adjusted = December 31, 2015

Now,

The time passed between January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2015 = 3 years

Therefore,

Amount to be recognized as insurance exp. on December 31, 2015

= \$12,000\times\frac{\textup{Time elapsed}}{\textup{Total policy duration}}

= \$12,000\times\frac{\textup{3}}{\textup{4}}

= $9,000

Thus,

The balance in the prepaid insurance account = $12,000 - $9,000 = $3,000

Hence,

The correct answer is option (C) $3,000
