Answer:

$25,000

Explanation:

The computation of the adjusted balance of retained earning is shown below:

Since the depreciation expense is overstated on 2019 which decreased the earnings so it would be added

Since the  depreciation expense is understated on 2020 which increased the earnings so it would be deducted

And, the ending inventory for 2020 is understated which decreased the earning so it would be added

Therefore, the adjusted balance is

= $24,000 - $4,000 + $5,000

= $25,000

Bob Clarke Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing system: Activities Estimated Overhead Cos
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Total Unit Cost=  $ 96.65

Explanation:

Bob Clarke Corporation

Activities           Estimated Overhead Cost       Expected Activity

Assembly                     $1,005,040                 68,000 machine-hours

Processing orders       $102,500                       2,000 orders

Inspection                    $139,840                    1,900 inspection-hours

<u><em>First we find the overhead rates using ABC costing method.</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Overhead Rates=  Estimated Overhead Cost/ Expected Activity

Assembly Rate=   $1,005,040 /68,000 = $ 14.78 per machine-hours

Processing rate= $102,500 / 2,000= $ 51.25 per orders

Inspection Rate=  $139,840/ 1,900=  $ 73.6 per inspection-hours

<u><em>Then we find the overhead costs applying the ABC Costing rates</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Overhead Costs Of 450 Hockey

Assembly= 710 machine-hours, * $ 14.78= $10493.8

Processing=42 orders, *$ 51.25= $ 2152.5

Inspection= 12 inspection-hours*$ 73.6 = $ 883.2

Total Overhead Costs of 450 Hockey = $ 13529.5

Overhead Cost of One Hockey= 13529.5/450= 30.065=  $ 30.07

Then the:

Product Cost

Direct materials cost is $36.42 per hockey stick

Direct labor cost is $30.16 per hockey stick

Overhead Costs is $ 30.07

Total Unit Cost=  $ 96.65
