Answer:

a.

Oct 1   Cash                                                         $240 Dr

               Unearned Subscription Revenue            $240 Cr

b.

Dec 31   Unearned Subscription Revenue                      $60 Dr

                    Subscription Revenue                                        $60 Cr

Explanation:

a.

The receipt of $240 upfront in advance from a customer is a liability for the business as the business has received cash for service that is yet to be provided. The business will record this as a debit to the cash account and credit to a liability account of  Unearned Service Revenue.

b.

On 31 december, the business has provided magazines for 3 months thus it has earned revenue for 3 months. The revenue for 3 months is,

Revenue per month = 240 / 12 = 20

For 3 months = 20*3  = 60

The business will record this as a credit to the subscription revenue and a debit to the unearned subscription revenue

Answer:

[Debit] Work In Process : Assembly Department $47,064

[Debit] Work In Process : Finishing Department $19,504

[Credit] Overheads $66,568

Explanation:

Note that overheads are assigned to departments on the basis of 160% of labor costs. Thus, our first point of call is to determine the labor cost for the respective departments. After that we then apply the 160 % to arrive at the Overheads assigned to that department

Step 1

Determine Departmental Labor Cost

Total Labor Costs         =   $62,800

Assembly Department = ( $44,400)

Finishing Department  =    $18,400

Step 2

Determine Overhead Cost for the Departments

Assembly Department ( $44,400 × 160 %) = $47,064

Finishing Department  ( $18,400 × 160 %)  = $19,504

Step 3

Journalize

<em>Debit</em> the Work In Process Account for the respective department and <em>Credit</em> the Overheads Account as above.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

These statements are correct:

  • It makes it easier to compare prices across Europe - the Euro is the common curriency across 19 countries, but prices in those countries are far from being the same. For example, Germany is a lot more expensive than Greece (although a lot wealthier too), and Greek people can easily find out that the same product in Germany costs more euros than in Greece.
  • It makes Europe an optimal currency area - in the Eurozone, economic efficiency is now higher because resources can be allocated across different countries thanks to the fact that prices can be compared in the region.
