1. Impairment loss of $3,901,012 will be accounted for in the Income Statement for the year, thus reducing the reported profits by $3,901,012.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Jan. 1, 20Y3, Purchase price of NWS Insurance Co. = $37,152,500

Goodwill on acquisition = $5,572,875

December 31, 20Y9, the book value of Goodwill before impairment = $5,572,875

Impaired value - $1,671,863

Impairment loss = $3,901,012 ($5,572,875 - $1,671,863)

b) The Goodwill impairment shows that the carrying amount, $1,671,863, is less than the fair value of $5,572,875. Goodwill is an intangible asset which Simmons Group acquired from NWS Insurance on January 1, 20Y3. It is annually tested for impairment by comparing the fair value with the carrying value.

forsale [732]

Answer:

(1) understated

(2) understaded

(3) unchanged

Explanation:

The amount of equivalent units will be higher as the ending inventory of work in process will be above of what it should be.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

7.5%

Explanation:

Cost savings :

= Equipment cost - New machine cost

= 30,000 - 12,000

= 18,000

Depreciation per year :

= Cost of automated bottling machine ÷ Useful years

= 120,000 ÷ 10

= 12,000

Simple rate of return:

= (Cost savings - Depreciation of new equipment) ÷ (cost - salvage of old)

= (18,000 - 12,000) ÷ (120,000 - 40,000)

= 6,000 ÷ 80,000

= 0.075

= 7.5%
