Answer:

Option A,$257,732 is correct

Explanation:

The computation of income from operations requires that the operating expenses(variable operating expenses and fixed operating expenses) be deducted in the current period as against charging a portion to closing inventory as it is obtainable under the absorption costing method:

Direct materials                                            $180,100

Direct labor                                                   $238,100

Variable factory overhead                            $261,800

Total prime costs                                              $680,000  

Less closing stock(1900*$680,000/18200)    ($70,989)  

Costs of good sold                                            $609,011  

add:operating expenses:

variable operating expenses                            $126,500

Fixed operating expenses                                 $49,900

Fixed factory overhead                                       $97,900

Total expenses                                                     $883,311  

income from operations=sales-total expenses

                                        =$1,141,000-$883,311=$257,689

The $257,689 is closest to option A,$257,732 the difference could be due to rounding error

katrin [286]

Answer:

Dr Purchases/ Raw Material Inventory .......................80,000

Cr   Bank/Account Payable....................................................80,000

Dr Work in Process ................................................................67,400

Cr Raw Material Inventory............................................................67,400

Explanation:

FOR PURCHASE OF MATERIAL

Dr Purchases/ Raw Material Inventory .......................80,000

Cr   Bank/Account Payable....................................................80,000

Being purchase of 10,000 units of raw materials at  $8 per unit

FOR MATERIAL FOR PRODUCTION

Dr Work in Process ................................................................67,400

Cr Raw Material Inventory............................................................67,400

Being materials used in production: 7,500 units at $8 per unit for job 200 and 1,480 units at $5 per unit for job 305

In relation to 'purchase of material' we debit the raw material inventory account because material is increasing and is an asset account; and we credit Bank if the materials have been paid for OR 'accounts payable', if the material has not yet been paid for.

In relation to 'requisition of material for production' we debit the raw material inventory account because material is decreasing and is an asset account; and we credit 'work in process' to assign the cost of materials to the ongoing jobs respectively.

he Talley Corporation had a taxable income of $345,000 from operations after all operating costs but before (1) interest charges
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

(a) The firm's Income tax liability is $59,771.25.

(b) The firm's after-tax income is $233,478.75.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows

The Talley Corporation had a taxable income of $345,000 from operations after all operating costs but before (1) interest charges of $69,000, (2) dividends received of $17,250, (3) dividends paid of $20,700, and (4) income taxes. Its federal tax rate was 21% (ignore any possible state corporate taxes). Recall 50% of dividends received are tax exempt. What are the firm's income tax liability and its after-tax income?

The explanation to the anwer is now given as follows:

Adjusted taxable income = Income after operation - Interest charges + Taxable dividend received ................. (1)

Where;

Income after operation = $345,0000

Interest charges = $69,000

Taxable dividend received = 50% * $17,250 = $8,625

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Adjusted taxable income = $345,000 - $69,000 + $8,625 = $284,625

(a) Income tax liability = Adjusted taxable income *  Tax rate = $284,625 * 21% = $59,771.25

(b) After-tax income = (Adjusted taxable income - Income tax liability) + (50% of dividend received) = ($284,625 - $59,771.25) +  (50% * $17,250) = $224,853.75 + $8,625 = $233,478.75
