A machine which cost $400,000 is acquired on January 1, 2017. Its estimated salvage value is $100,000 and its expected life is f

Soloha48 [4]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for 2017 and 2018 under the following methods

a. Straight-line method

= (Purchase cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated life)

= ($400,000 - $100,000) ÷ (5 years)

= $60,000

Since the depreciation expense under this method would remain the same for the remaining useful life

So for 2017 and 2018, the depreciation expense i.e. $60,000 would be charged every year.

b. Under the sum-of-the-year-digits method

For 2017,

= ($400,000 - $100,000) × 5 years ÷ ( 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1)

= $300,000 × 5 years ÷ 15 years

= $100,000

For 2018, the book value is

= $400,000 - $100,000

The $100,000 is the depreciation expense of 2017 year

= $300,000 × 4 ÷ 15

= $80,000

Patriot Co. manufactures and sells three products: red, white, and blue. Their unit selling prices are red, $20; white, $35; and

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

a. break even number in units = $250,000 / $10.0908 = 24,775.04

red units = 24,775.04 x 5/11 = 11,261.38 ≈ 11,262 units

total sales = 11,262 x $20 = $225,240

white units = 24,775.04 x 4/11 = 9,009.11 ≈ 9,010 units

total sales = 9,010 x $35 = $315,350

blue units = 24,775.04 x 2/11 = 4,504.55 ≈ 4,505 units

total sales = 4,505 x $65 = $292,825

total sales = $833,415

b. new break even number in units = $300,000 / $19.4545 = 15,420.60

red units = 15,420.60 x 5/11 = 7,009.36 ≈ 7,010 units

total sales = 7,010 x $20 = $140,200

white units = 15,420.60 x 4/11 = 5,607.49 ≈ 5,608 units

total sales = 5,608 x $35 = $196,280

blue units = 15,420.60 x 2/11 = 2,803.75 ≈ 2,804 units

total sales = 2,804 x $65 = $182,260

total sales = $518,740

c. Management should start using the new material as soon as possible since it doesn't only decrease the break even point, if sales level remain the same, it will increase operating profits.

Explanation:

red's contribution margin = $8

white's contribution margin = $13

blue's contribution margin = $12

sales mix = 5:4:2

weighted contribution margin = ($8 x 5/11) + ($13 x 4/11) + ($12 x 2/11) = $3.6363 + $4.2727 + $2.1818 = $10.0908

new contribution margin:

red's contribution margin = $14

white's contribution margin = $25

blue's contribution margin = $22

sales mix = 5:4:2

weighted contribution margin = ($14 x 5/11) + ($25 x 4/11) + ($22 x 2/11) = $6.3636 + $9.0909 + $4 = $19.4545
