Answer:

a) <u>Investment Value as at December 31, 2020 / Jan 1, 2021        $64,000</u>

<u>b) Value of Equity Investment Dec 31, 2021                                 $491, 000</u>

Explanation:

First Part is to calculate the January 1, 2021 entry to adjust the Equity account based on additional acquisition on that date

It should be noted that the investment balance as at 31st December 2020, will also be the value of the investment balance for the start of the next year January 1st 2021.

Therefore,

Step 1: Calculate the Investment Balance as at 31st Dec, 2020

Acquisition Cost of 15% Investment (Procter Corporation Jan 1)   $70,000

Subtract: The dividend received 31st Dec, 2020 ($40,000 x .15)    <u>($6,000)</u>

<u>Investment Value as at December 31, 2020                                     $64,000</u>

Step 2: Calculate the Investment Gain (Equity Investment)

The formula= Market value of Equity (year end) - Carrying Value (calculated in step 1)

= $68,000 - $64,000

= $4,000

Step 3: The journal entry to adjust the equity investment account

Date                   Particulars                               Debit                       Credit

Dec, 31, 2020     Equity Investment                 $4,000

                                Gain Unrealized on Equity Investment            $4,000

being the journal record adjusting equity investment at the time of new acquisition

Part B: Balance of the Equity Investment Account Dec 31, 2021

The value of the Investment as at 31, Dec, 2020              $64,000

Add: The additional investment in Procter (Jan 1, 2021)   $310,000

Add: Net Income Share for Rogers (45% x $300,000)      $135,000

(45% because the initial 15% and the 30% additional)

Subtract: Dividend received (45% x $40,000)                   <u>  ($18,000)</u>

<u>Value of Equity Investment Dec 31, 2021                           $491, 000</u>

How is the relationship between unitss in the money system in the u.s. similar to the metric system
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Both the metric system and the US monetary system are based on the system of tens.

Explanation:

The metric system is based on the meter, which is divided into 100 centimeters, while the US monetary system is based on the dollar that is divided into 100 cents.

Generally speaking all Americans and most US organizations use the Imperial  System (along with Liberia and Myanmar), while the rest of the world uses the metric system. But some American organizations use the metric system also, like the military and many financial institutions, specially those that export or trade with commodities.

What s really intriguing about this, is that the metric system is the official measuring system of the US since 1866, but it hasn't been massively applied yet.

Production records show that there were 440 units in the beginning inventory, 30% complete, 1,440 units started, and 1,600 units
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The number of units processed is

= Beginning work in process units + completed and started units - transferred out units

= 440 units + 1,440 units - 1,600 units

= 280 units

b. The material cost per unit is

= Total cost ÷ equivalent units

where,

Total cost is

= Opening work in process + material cost

= $2,220 + $6,610

= $8,830

And, the equivalent units is

= Units transferred out + ending work in process

= 1,600 + 280

= 1,880

So, the material cost per unit is

= $8,830 ÷ 1,880 units

= $4.70

c. The conversion cost per unit is

= Total cost ÷ equivalent units

where,

Total cost is

= Opening work in process + labor cost + overhead cost

= $1,720 + $4,800 + $1,300

= $7,820

And, the equivalent units is

= Units transferred out + ending work in process × completion percentage

= 1,600 + 280 × 40%

= 1,712

So, the material cost per unit is

= $7,820 ÷ 1,712 units

= $4.57
