At the start of the month, Oak Inc. had 58,000 units of beginning work in process that were 65% complete. Over the course of the

month, the firm completed and transferred out 208,900 units, and at the end of the month, it had 59,400 units in ending work in process that were 70% complete. In comparison, Maple Inc. began the month with 61,200 units of beginning work in process that were 60% complete. Over the course of the month, the firm completed and transferred out 210,500 units, and at the end of the month, it had 52,400 units in ending work in process that were 90% complete. Both firms add 40% of materials at the beginning of the process and the remaining 60% when the units are 70% complete. Both firms also add 25% of conversion costs at the beginning of the process and the remaining 75% when the units are 90% complete. According to these figures, Oak has ________ equivalent units of production for materials and ________ equivalent units of production for conversion costs than Maple.a. more ; fewerb. fewer; fewerc. fewer; mored. more; more

Answer:

According to these figures, Oak has <em><u>  more   </u></em>equivalent units of production for materials and  <u><em>   fewer   </em></u>  equivalent units of production for conversion costs than Maple

Explanation:

Oak EU:

Transferred units less percentage of completion beginning inventory plus completion on ending inventory

<u><em>Materials:</em></u>

208,900

58,000 x 40% (they were added the 40% at beginning but, not the remaining 60%)

59,400 x 100% (they reach the 70% threshold so the rest of the materials where added)

Equivalent units Materials 245100

<u><em>Conversion:</em></u>

208,900 - 58,000 x 65% + 59,400 x 70%

212780

Maple EU:

<u><em>Materials:</em></u>

210,500 - 61,200 x 40% + 52,400 x 100% =

238420

<u><em>Conversion:</em></u>

210,500 - 61,200 x 60% + 52,400 x 90% =

220940

Oak v Maple:

Materials:

Oak             Maple

245100 > 238420

Conversion:

Oak            Maple

212780   <   220940

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

It is cheaper to buy the product.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

Direct material $45,000

Direct labor 30,000

Factory overhead (30 % is variable ) 98,000

Buy:

Total cost= $100,000

<u>I will assume that none of the fixed overhead avoidable. Therefore, we will take into account only the variable overhead.</u>

Total variable production cost= 45,000 + 30,000 + (98,000*0.3)

Total variable production cost= $104,400

It is cheaper to buy the product.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Time Warner, Inc.

a.

                                     Turner      Home Box Office  Warner Bros.   Total

Segment Revenues

(in millions)                  $21,700            $22,200         $80,600      $124,500

Variable costs                 4,774                10,434           25,792           41,000

Contribution margin  $16,926               $11,766        $54,808        $83,500

Contribution ratio     78% (100 - 22)    53% (100 -47) 68% (100 -32)   67%

b. Certainly, Turnover and Warner Bros. are more profitable businesses than Home Box Office in terms of total contribution margin (dollars) and contribution margin ratio.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Segment Revenues

(in millions)

Turner (cable networks and digital media) $21,700

Home Box Office (pay television) 22,200

Warner Bros. (films, television, and videos) 80,600

Assume that the variable costs as a percent of sales for each segment are as follows:

Turner 22%

Home Box Office 47%

Warner Bros. 32%

b) The contribution margin ratio for the three segments can easily be determined by subtracting the variable costs percentages from 100 for each segment instead of doing more computations (Contribution margin/Sales Revenue * 100).  But the results are the same for either method.

Sheridan Publishing identified the following overhead activities, their respective costs, and their cost drivers to produce the
Ber [7]

Answer:

Deluxe= $4.25 per book

Moderate= $4.25 per book

Economy= $4.25 per book

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Activity (Cost) Cost Driver Delux Moderate Economy

Machine maintenance ($330,000) machine hours 250 750 1,000

Setups ($630,000)

Packing ($166,000)

Photo development ($574,000)

First, we need to calculate the total overhead cost:

Total overhead= 330,000 + 630,000 + 166,000 + 574,000= 1,700,000

Now, we can calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate to allocate overhead to each book type.

The allocation base is machine-hours.

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 1,700,000/ 2,000= $850 per machine hour.

Now, we can allocate overhead to each book:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Deluxe= $850*250hours= $212,500

Moderate= $850*750hours= $637,500

Economy= $850*1,000= $850,000

Based on the number of units, we can calculate the unitary overhead:

Deluxe= $212,500/50,000= $4.25 per book

Moderate= $637,500/150,000= $4.25 per book

Economy= $850,000/200,000= $4.25 per book
