Answer:
As long as Mitch acted in good faith and tried to make the best possible decision regarding all available information, and his decision was something that any other person could have made, his mistake has to be considered a bad or negative business judgement (business judgement rule). He thought that his actions would benefit the corporation, but he was wrong and the corporation lost money. That types of mistakes are considered normal and just that, mistakes that anyone can make.
In regards with the second issue, that Mitch is a shareholder and a director of a firm that will directly compete with Numero Uno, he must inform the board about this and resign to either Numero Uno or One of a Kind.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
First, we need to get the predetermined rate
Predetermined rate = Cost of manufacturing overhead / Cost driver
= $1,800,000/60,000
= $30
We will now calculate the application.
Actual labor hours × rate
= 61,500 × $30
= $1,845,000
We will now compare actual with overhead cost
= Applied Overhead cost - Actual manufacturing overhead
= $1,845,000 - $1,810,000
= $35,000
The above is an over application of overhead cost because the cost applied exceed the actual cost.
What's your question I don't understand
Answer:
44,780 units
Explanation:
When a company uses the weighted average method in its process costing system, the beginning inventory nor the units transferred in are included in the calculations for equivalent units. Only units transferred out and ending inventory are use to calculate equivalent units:
equivalent units = units transferred out + (ending inventory x % of completion)}
equivalent units = 37,100 units + (9,600 units x 80%) = 37,100 units + 7,680 units = 44,780 units
