mafiozo [28]

Answer:

a=   54796

h=  80,824

d=117916  

i=67915.68  

e=$ 352196  

b=  58,800  

f= 373496

j=  234500

c= 15100

k=   1900

g=3721596

Explanation:

Orlando Company

Manufacturing Cost Data

                                                 Case A          Case B       Case C

Direct materials used                 (a)               $91,200    $69,000

a=149,800 - 42,804-  52,200     54796

Direct labor                               52,200         143,800          (h)

$69,000 +x+0.82h= 216100

1.82h= 216100-69000

h= 147100/1.82= 80,824                                                     80,824

Manufacturing overhead applied 42,804      (d)                   (i)

d=82% of 143,800=117916                                 117916

i=82% of 80824 =  67915.68                                                 67915.68                      

Total manufacturing costs 149,800                 (e)              216,100

e=$91,200+ 143,800+ 117916                              352196

Work in process 1/1/14              (b)                21,300           18,400

b=208,600- 149,800                   58,800

Total cost of work in process 208,600         (f)                   (j)

f=352196+ 21,300                                           373496

j=216,100 + 18,400                                                               234500

Work in process 12/31/14             (c)               11,900            (k)

c=208,600 - 193,500                     15100

k=234500 -232,600                                                            1900

Cost of goods manufactured 193,500           (g)             232,600

g=373496- 11,900                                         3721596

The formulas used are given below.

Total Manufacturing Cost = Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overheads

Total cost of work in process= Total manufacturing costs+ Opening Work in process

Cost of goods manufactured= Total cost of work in process - Closing Work in process

In each of these if two amounts are known we can find the third one.We can also do rearrange these to find the required amounts.The calculation of each of the missing amount has been done next to it.

Goodwill is: Multiple Choice Amortized over the greater of its estimated life or 40 years. The excess of the fair value of a bus
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Goodwill is:

The excess of the fair value of a business over the fair value of all net identifiable assets.

Explanation:

This definition of Goodwill implies that it is usually acquired by the purchaser of another business, when it pays a price higher than the fair market value of the other company's net assets.  It is not a physical asset like property, plant, and equipment, but intangible.

Goodwill arises from a company's good reputation, loyal customers or clientele base, brand identity, talented workforce, and proprietary technology.

Goodwill does not have a definite life and under US GAAP and IFRS standards.  Therefore, it is not amortized like other intangible assets but is evaluated for impairment every year.
