Kunkel Company makes two products and uses a conventional costing system. A single plantwide predetermined overhead rate is comp

uted based on direct labor-hours. Data for the two products for the upcoming year follow: Mercon WurconDirect materials cost per unit $ 8.00 $ 6.00Direct labor cost per unit $10.00 $11.00Direct labor-hours per unit 2.00 7.00Number of units produced 1,000 2,000These products are customized to some degree for specific customers.Required:1. The company's manufacturing overhead costs for the year are expected to be $640,000. Using the company's conventional costing system, compute the unit product costs for the two products. (Do not round intermediate calculation. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)2. Management is considering an activity-based costing system in which half of the overhead would continue to be allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours and haif would be allocated on the basis of engineering design time. This time is expected to be distributed as follows during the upcoming year:Engineering design time (in hours) 1,000 1,000 2,000Compute the unit product cost for the two products using the proposed ABC system. (Do not round intermediate calculation. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.

Answer:

1) using conventional costing

unit cost mercon = $98

unit cost wurcon = $297

2) using ABC costing

unit cost mercon = $218

unit cost wurcon = $237

Explanation:

                                                     Mercon           Wurcon

Direct materials cost per unit       $8.00             $6.00

Direct labor cost per unit            $10.00             $11.00

Direct labor-hours per unit            2.00                7.00

overhead rate applied                     $80              $280      

Number of units produced           1,000              2,000

overhead rate = total overhead / total direct labor hours = $640,000 / 16,000 = $40

unit cost mercon = $8 + $10 + $80 = $98

unit cost wurcon = $6 + $11 + $280 = $297

using the ABC costing, overhead rate is only 50%

Mercon           Wurcon

Direct materials cost per unit       $8.00             $6.00

Direct labor cost per unit            $10.00             $11.00

Direct labor-hours per unit            2.00                7.00

overhead rate applies                     $40              $140      

Number of units produced           1,000              2,000

total engineering costs          $160,000        $160,000

engineering cost per unit              $160                $80

engineering cost per unit = $320,000 / 2,000 = $160

unit cost mercon = $8 + $10 + $40 + $160 = $218

unit cost wurcon = $6 + $11 + $140 + $80 = $237

Answer:

The future value of an annuity (FVA) is $828.06

Explanation:

The future value of an annuity (FVA) is the value of payments at a specific date in the future based on the payments being recurring and assuming a discount rate. The future value of an annuity (FVA) is based on regular cash flow. The higher the discount rate, the greater the annuity's future value.

FVA= P * \frac{(1+r)^n-1}{r}

Where:

FVA is The future value of an annuity (FVA)

P is payment per period

n is the number of period

r is the discount rate

Given that:

P = $195

r = 4% = 0.04

n = 4 years

FVA= P * \frac{(1+r)^n-1}{r}

substituting values

FVA= 195 * \frac{(1+0.04)^4-1}{0.04}=195*4.246=828.06\\FVA=824.06

The future value of an annuity (FVA) is $828.06

adell [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capital gains tax is a tax that is levied on the profit made from the sale of a non-inventory asset. The most common sources of capital gains are through the sale of bonds, precious metals, stocks, property, and real estate.

The IRS typically allows an exclusion of up to: $250,000 of capital gains on real estate for a single person and $500,000 of capital gains on real estate for a married couple who are filing jointly.

To find the amount on which they pay capital gains:

The adjusted basis is $200,000 which is:

Initial cost of buying the house for $150,000, plus cost of improvements $50,000.

The sales price of $450,000 minus the selling expenses which cost $30,000.

The amount realized is therefore:

$450,000 - $30,000 = $420,000.

Note: They will receive an exclusion of $500,000 because they are filing jointly. So Bill and Brenda will not pay any capital gains tax.
