Answer:

Even though a client cannot force CPA to engage in illegal activities, like any other employer cannot force an employee to commit a crime, there exists a -accountant-client privilege that cannot be violated. This means that the accountant cannot disclose any information regarding past clients unless ordered by a court or authorized by the client himself/herself.

So, before discussing any previous events, the successor CPA must obtain the client's permission to discuss any events related to the previous relationship.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

EPS of Plan I = $3.19

EPS of Plan II = $2.82

Explanation:

Under Plan I:

Plan I's Earning per share (EPS) = EBIT ÷ Number of shares = $575,000 ÷ 180,000 = $3.19

Under Plan II:

Interest = $2,600,000 × 8% = $208,000

Earning after Interest = EBIT - Interest = $575,000 - $208,000 = $367,000

Plan II's EPS = $367,000 ÷ 130,000 = $2.82

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Applied Manufacturing Overheads are $102,000

Overapplied Manufacturing overheads are $18,000

Explanation:

Under or over applied manufacturing overhead can be determined by comparing the actual and applied manufacturing overheads.

Applied overheads can be calculated by multiplying pre-determined overhead rate and actual level of quantity. Predetermined overhead rate is calculated using estimated overhead and estimated activity on which overheads are applied.

In this question the predetermined overhead rate is 120% of direct labor cost.

Applied overhead = Direct labor cost x 120% = $85,000 x 120% = $102,000

Actual overheads incurred = $84,000

Overapplied Manufacturing overheads = $102,000 - $84,000 = $18,000
