Question:
The use of the lower of cost or net realizable value (LCNRV) method to value inventory for reporting purposes is a departure from the accounting principle of:
A) Historical cost.
B) Matching.
C) Going concern.
D) Conservatism.
Answer:
The Right answer is A) Historical Cost.
Explanation:
Inventories are recorded at their cost. If inventory declines in value below its original cost, a major departure from the historical cost principle occurs.
Whatever the reason for a decline-damage, physical deterioration, obsolesce, changes in price levels, or other causes, a company should write down the inventory to Lower-of-Cost or Net Realizable Value (LCNRV) to report this loss.
A company abandons the historical cost principle when the future utility (revenue-producing ability) of the asset drops below its original cost.
Net Realizable Value refers to the net amount that a company expects to realize from the sale of inventory. Specifically, net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business minus estimated costs to make a sale.
Example
Inventory Value - Unfinished $2,000
Less: Estimated Cost of Completion $ 50
Estimated Cost to sell <u>200</u> <u> 250</u>
<u>Net Realizable Value 750</u>

Explanation:
In a job interview, the interviewer must try to determine if a candidate fits the job profile or not, and he/she really has a very limited amount of time. A very effective way of knowing someone is how that person reacts under pressure when faced with really tough and problematic situations. Being interviewed is already tough, and a really difficult question that doesn't necessarily have a right or wrong answer doesn't make it easier.
Many times the applicant's reaction is more important than the answer itself.
Answer:
$289,000
Explanation:
Predetermined overhead rate (Fixed) = Budgeted Fixed overhead cost / Budgeted hours
Predetermined overhead rate (Fixed) = 300,000/60,000
Predetermined overhead rate (Fixed) = $5 per hours
Applied Fixed overhead = Standard hours allowed × Predetermined overhead rate(fixed)
Applied Fixed overhead = 57,800 * $5 per hours
Applied Fixed overhead = $289,000
So, the fixed overhead applied to production during the period is $289,000
