weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Key figures:

2016:

Revenue = $270,000

Expenses = $202,500

Income = $67,500

2017:

Revenue = $450,000

Expenses = $337,500

Income = $112,500

2018:

Revenue = $180,000

Expenses = $135,000

Income = $45,000

Explanation:

Under this method, percentage of work completed is determined using the following formula:

Percentage of work completed = (Total Expenses incurred on the project till the close of the accounting period) ÷ (Total Estimated Cost of the Contract)

Total estimated cost = $202,500 + $337,500 + $135,000 = $675,000

2016:

Percentage of work completed = ($202,500 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 30%

Expenses in 2016 = $202,500 (answer)

Revenue in 2016 = $900,000 × 30% = $270,000 (answer)

Income in 2016 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2016 = $270,000 - $202,500

Income in 2016 = $67,500 (answer)

2017:

Percentage of work completed = ($337,500 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 50%

Expenses in 2017 = $337,500 (answer)

Revenue in 2017 = $900,000 × 50% = $450,000 (answer)

Income in 2017 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2017 = $450,000 - $337,500

Income in 2017 = $112,500 (answer)

2018:

Percentage of work completed = ($135,000 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 20%

Expenses in 2018 = $135,000 (answer)

Revenue in 2018 = $900,000 × 20% = $180,000 (answer)

Income in 2018 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2018 = $180,000 - $135,000

Income in 2018 = $45,000 (answer)

Romona Company expects its November sales to be 20% higher than its October sales of $ 240 comma 000. All sales are on credit a

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The cash balance on November 30 amounts to $155,700

Explanation:

Cash balance on November 30 = Beginning balance + Collection of cash from October sales + Collection of cash from November sales - Payments for October Purchases - Payments for November Purchases

where

Beginning balance is $13,700

Collection of cash from October sales = October Sales × % amount collected

= $240,000 × 70%

= $168,000

Collection of cash from November sales = November Sales × % amount collected

= $240,000 × 1.20 × 25%

= $72,000

Payments for October Purchases = October Purchases × % amount paid

= $70,000 × 65%

= $45,500

Payments for November Purchases = November Purchases × % amount paid

= $150,000 × 35%

= $52,500

Putting the values in the above formula

Cash balance on November 30 = $13,700 + $168,000 + $72,000 - $45,500 - $52,500

= $155,700

Waterway Corporation purchased a new machine for its assembly process on August 1, 2020. The cost of this machine was $162,900.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

(a) Straight Line Depreciation for 2020 $ 28,800

(b) Activity Method of Depreciation for 2020 $ 5,616

(c) Sum of the years Depreciation for 2021 $ 38,400

(d) Double declining balance depreciation for 2021 $ 39,096

Explanation:

Computation for requirement (a) - Straight Line Depreciation for 2020

Straight line method considers depreciation on adepreciable base after considering a salvage value and spreads it evenly over the life of the asset.

Cost of machine $ 162,900

Estimated Salvage Value $ 18.900

Depreciable Basis $ 144,000

Estimated Life 5 years

Straight Line Depreciation for 2020 = $ 144,000/5 = $ 28,800

Computation for requirement (b) - Activity Method Depreciation for 2020

Activity method depreciation considers depreciation over the estimated usage of the asset and multiplies by the usage in a given period. The depreciable basis is after considering the salvage value.

Depreciable basis - same as SL depreciation $ 144,000

Usage Life of the machine 20,000 hours

Machine usage for 2020 780 hours

Depreciation on a per hour basis $ 144,000/ 20,000 = $ 7.2 per hour

Depreciation for 2020 on a usage of 780 hours = 780 * $7.20 = $ 5,616

Computation for requirement (c) - Sum of the years digits for 2021

In a sum of the years depreciation method, the sum of the life of the assets are added and considered as a depreciable life. The salvage value is considered in determining the depreciable basis.

Depreciable basis - same as SL depreciation $ 144,000

Estimated life of the asset 5 years

Sum of the years, (5+4+3+2+1) 15

so the first year depreciation shall be 5/15, the next year 4/15 and so on,

We need to compute the depreciation for 2021 which is the second year, so the formula shall be:

4/15 (remaining useful life) * $ 144,000(depreciable basis) = $ 38,400

Computation for requirement (d) - Double declining balance for 2021

In a double declining balance method the depreciation rate (%) is double that of a straight line method. The subsequent years depreciation is on a reduced balance. No salvage value is considered

The first year's depreciation is calculated

Cost of Machine* (2 * Straight Line depreciation %)

$ 162,900* (2 * 20 %) so the depreciation for 2020 would be

$ 162,900 * 40 % = $ 65,160.

For 2021, which is the requirement in our question, the cost would be the reduced value.

Original Cost of the machine $ 162,900

Double Declining balance Depreciation 2020 $ 65,160

Declining Cost basis for 2021 depreciation $ 97,740

Depreciation @ 40 % $ 39,096
