Liabilities: Short term note payable +$16000

Selected financial information for Feemster Company for 2012 follows. Sales $ 2,000,000 Cost of goods sold 1,400,000 Merchandise

olganol [36]

Answer:

The merchandise inventory turnover during 2012 is 8 times.

Explanation:

The following information is given:

Sales - $ 2,000,000

Cost of goods sold - $1,400,000

Merchandise inventory Beginning of year - $ 155,000

Merchandise inventory End of year - $ 195,000

After considering these information, it is easy to calculate the merchandise inventory turnover. The formula is shown below:

Merchandise Inventory Turnover = COGS ÷ Average inventory

where average inventory = (opening inventory + ending inventory) ÷ 2

So,

Average inventory = ( $ 155,000 + $ 195,000) ÷ 2

= $175,000

Now, we can compute easily

Merchandise Inventory Turnover = 1,400,000 ÷ $175,000

= 8 times

Thus, the merchandise inventory turnover during 2012 is 8 times.

Bayest Manufacturing Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Applied overhead: 387,750

underapplied by 74,250

Explanation:

$\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate$

to get the predetermined overhead rate we will distribute the expected cost along a cost driver. In this case, labor hours.

403,260 / 61,100 = 6.6

Then, we apply this rate to the actual labor hours for the period:

58,750 x 6.6 = 387,750

This will be the applied overhead for the period.

The we compare with the actual overhead:

387,750 - 462,000 = (74,250)

As the actual cost were higher the overhead was underpapplied.
