Answer:

Cullumber Company

Journal Entry:

Debit Loss on Goodwill Impairment $34,200

Credit Goodwill $34,200

To record the loss on goodwill impairment.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculation:

Fair value = $820,800

Carrying value of net identifiable assets, including goodwill = $855,000

Goodwill impairment = $34,200 ($855,000 - $820,800)

b) Cullumber, which acquired Blossom is expected to check for the impairment of goodwill yearly.  The impairment occurs when the carrying value of the net identifiable assets of Blossom is more than the fair value of Blossom.  Generally Accepted Accounting Standards require the annual review of the fair value of goodwill to check for its impairment.  By the above entry, the goodwill will be reduced by $34,200 and a loss debited in Cullumber's accounts.

Differentiate between a defined contribution pension plan and a defined benefit pension plan. Explain how the employer's obligat
serg [7]

Answer:

Differences Between a Defined Contribution Pension Plan and a Defined Benefit Pension Plan.

With a defined contribution pension plan, the benefit that will accrue to the employee is not known or defined ahead of her retirement.  But the contributions that will be made by the employer and the employee to fund the pension are clearly spelt out.

With a defined benefit pension plan, the benefit (i.e. the monthly payment to the retiree) is stated ahead of the pension time.  It is based on the employee's tenure and salary.  Employees do not contribute to the plan but are entitled to lifetime monthly payments.

Explanation:

The employer and each employee contribute some certain percentages to each worker's individual retirement account (IRA) under the defined contribution pension plan.  Under the defined benefit pension plan, the employer is solely responsible for funding the plan and the employee benefits via a monthly payment from the funding plan during retirement.

LiRa [457]

Answer:

b. $524.94

Explanation:

We need to solve for the PTM of a 6 year annuity with quarterly payment discount for 6.25% compounding quarterly as well:

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PTM\\

PV $10,438.8800

time 24 (6 years x 4 quarter per year)

rate 0.015625 8 ( 0.0625 / 4 )

The payment every quarter will be for:

10438.88 \div \frac{1-(1+0.015625)^{-24} }{0.015625} = PTM\\

PTM  $ 524.942

Based on predicted production of 17,000 units, a company anticipates $255,000 of fixed costs and $216,750 of variable costs. The
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

fixed costs = $255,000

variable costs = (15,000 / 17,000) x $216,750 = $191,250

Explanation:

A flexible budget is prepared in order to compare how budgeted revenues and costs actually worked out. In other words, if actual revenues and costs were similar to the budget previously prepared. A flexible budget adjusts actual results and helps management control how efficient the company was in following their budget. That is why a flexible budget is done after the budgeted period is over.

Fixed costs should not change (that is why they are fixed), but variable costs should change if the actual output was different than the budgeted output.
