Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The balance in the Investment in Lennon Co.account found in the financial records of Pacer as of December 31, 2008 was $2,071,500

Explanation:

In order to calcuate the balance in the Investment in Lennon Co.account found in the financial records of Pacer as of December 31, 2008 we would have to calculate the following formula:

Net balance=Investment made+share of net income-dividend

Investment made = $1,920,000

share of net income= $670,000*45%= $301,500

dividend= $2.5*60,000= $150,000

Therefore, Net balance= $1,920,000 + $301,500 - $150,000

Net balance= $2,071,500

The balance in the Investment in Lennon Co.account found in the financial records of Pacer as of December 31, 2008 was $2,071,500

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Balance sheet

Inventory - Understatement by $11,600

Owners equity - Understatement by $11,600

Income statement

Cost of goods sold - Overstatement by $11,600

Net income - Understatement by $11,600

Explanation:

The movement in an inventory account which is the difference between the opening and ending balances is a function of the purchases and the sales during the period.

This is captured in the equation below

Opening balance + purchases - cost of goods sold = ending balance

Hence an understatement of the ending balance would result in an overstatement of the cost of goods sold thus an understatement of the net income (and owner's equity).

The understatement in closing inventory balance is

= $378,500 - $366,900

= $11,600.

        expense

B. Product-Costing

i. Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = Total Manufacturing overhead / Total Machine Hours

Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = 359,520.00  / 21,400.00

Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = 16.80

ii.  Particular                    Amount

Raw Material                     $6,240

Direct Labor Cost              <u>$9,165</u>

                                          $15,405

Manufacturing overhead  $13,104

(780 hours* $16.80)           <u>              </u>

Total Cost of 3900 Hats  <u>$28509</u>

Thus, the Cost of One hat = $28509 / 3900 hat = $7.31 per hat

iii. Total Hats made During the Month Of April    3,900

    Less: Closing Inventory                                     <u>1,050</u>  

    Sold During the month of April                       <u>2,850</u>

    Cost Of Hats Sold During the month of April  

    = 2,850 * $7.31

    = $20,833.5

Cost of Closing Stock (1,050 hat)  = 1,050 hat * $7.31 = 7675.5
