Answer:

a. $ 900 underapplied

Explanation:

Based on the data provided we conclude that the factory overhead is applied on the basis of direct labour hours.

Determination of Overhead rate

Estimated overhead                                                             $ 115,000

Direct labour hours                                                                  23,000 hours

Overhead rate per direct labor hour is $ 115,000/ 23,000 = $ 5 per direct labor hour

Amount of applied overhead = Direct Labor hours * Overhead rate per hour

Applied Overhead = $ 5 * 35,000                                        $ 175,000

Actual Overhead                                                                    <u>$ 175,900</u>

Underapplied Overhead                                                        $(     900)

Less: Beginning balance                         $0

Change in balance : credit (debit )           $161.50

1. Now the journal entry is

On 2021

Income tax expense ($161.50 + $55) $216.50  

                        To  Deferred tax liability $161.50

= $824,000 - $216,500

= $607,500

Bramble Corp. has $3960000 of 9% convertible bonds outstanding. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 30 shares of $30 par value
natta225 [31]

Answer: Credit of $217480 to Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par

Explanation:

The following information is given in the question as:

Debit: Bonds payable = $1,250,000

Debit: Premium on bonds payable = $92480

Credit: Common stock = $1,125,000

Credit: Paid in capital in excess of Par = $217480

The above were calculated as:

Common stock = ($1250,000/$1,000) × 30 × 30

= $1250 × 90

= $1,125,000

% Conversion will be:

= $1,250,000 / $3960000 = 0.32

Unamortized bond premium will then be:

= 0.32 × $289,000

= $92,480

Paid in capital in excess of par will be:

= $1,250,000 + $92,480- $1,125,000

= $217,480

Therefore, the answer will be to

"Credit of $217480 to Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par"
