3. Journal Entry for item (g):

Debit Finished Goods $607,000

Credit Work in Process $592,000

Credit Manufacturing overhead $15,000

To record the cost of manufactured parts, including the under-applied overhead.

4. Cost of goods sold = 10,000 *$607,000/16,000 = $379,375

(While Ending Inventory = 6,000 *$607,000/16,000 = $227,625.)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated manufacturing overhead = $4,800,000

Estimated machine hours = 240,000

Overhead rate = $4,800,000/240,000 = $20 per machine hour

Actual cost data for January:

Number of machine parts = 16,000

Raw materials purchased on account = $325,000

Raw materials cost:

 Direct materials = $232,000 (80% of $290,000)

 Indirect materials = $58,000 (20% of $290,000)

Labor cost

 Direct labor = $60,000 ($180,000 * 1/3)

 Indirect labor = $120,000 ($180,000 * 2/3)

Manufacturing overhead:

 Depreciation = $75,000

 Others = $62,000

 Indirect materials = $58,000

 Indirect labor = $120,000

Total actual overhead incurred = $315,000

Machine hours actually worked = 15,000

b) Other Accounts

1. Expenses Payable

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Manufacturing overhead               62,000

2. Depreciation Expense - Equipment

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Manufacturing overhead              $75,000

3. Raw Materials Account

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Accounts Payable      $325,000

Work in Process                             $232,000

Manufacturing overhead                   58,000

4. Accounts Payable

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Raw Materials                                $325,000

c) The manufacturing overhead applied is $300,000 (15,000 machines hours actually used multiplied by $20 overhead rate), while the actual overhead costs incurred total $315,000.  So there is an under-applied overhead of $15,000 which is charged to Finished Goods in order to obtain the correct cost of 16,000 custom-made machined parts.

If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.80, what is the total implied increase in economic spending activity from a governmen
Rzqust [24]

\$500 is the total implied increase in economic spending activity from a government stimulus of \$100 billion

<u>Explanation: </u>

The median product preference tests the increase in expenditure due to changes in availability.

In increasing government expenditure, total economic investment would be increased by the scale of the budget multiplier. In other terms, the expenditure equation indicates how much GDP can increase as government expenditure increases.

The spending multiplier can be expressed as \frac{1}{1-M P C} \text { or } \frac{1}{M P S}

\text { Increase in GDP }=\frac{1}{1-M P C} \times \Delta G=\frac{1}{1-0.8} \times 100=\$ 500

So, the total implied increase in economic spending is \$ 500

In economics, marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is the proportion of an aggregate raise in pay that consumer spends on the consumption of services and goods, as opposed to saving it.
