dezoksy [38]

Answer: Gain of $12,000

Explanation:

First off, what was the Net book value of the old sailboat?

= Cost Price - Accumulated Depreciation

= 210,000 - 84,000

What they should have received as the trade in allowance was the NBV of $126,000. Since they didn't they got a gain of,

= 138,000 - 126,000

= $12,000

Using the estimated sales and production of 140,000 boxes of Chap-Off, the Accounting Department has developed the following man

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Silven Industries

If Silven buys its tubes from the outside supplier, it will be able to avoid $1.10 of its own Chap-Off manufacturing costs per box

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated Production and Sales Units of Chap-Off = 140,000 boxes

Manufacturing cost per box: Avoidable costs

Direct material $ 3.70 $0.74 ($3.70 * 20%)

Direct labor 2.00 0.20 ($2.00 * 10%)

Manufacturing overhead 1.60 0.16 ($1.60 * 10%)

Total cost $ 7.30 $1.10

Outside supplier's price for tubes = $1.20 per box

b) Unless there an alternative use for the machine used in making the tubes internally exists, it may not be cost-effective for Silven to buy from the outside supplier. Alternatively, it should renegotiate a price per box that is less than $1.10 in order to stop making the tubes internally.

The Laresen Company uses the machine hour method of applying factory overhead to production. The budgeted factory overhead last

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Total cost= $1,375

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The budgeted factory overhead last year was $200,000, and there were 40,000 machine hours budgeted.

Job 84:

Direct materials= $900

direct labor hours= 25

Direct labor cost= $350.

First, we need to calculate the manufacturing overhead rate based on direct labor hours:

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

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 200,000/40,000= $5 per direct labor hour

Now, we can calculate the total cost:

Total cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead

Total cost= 900 + 350 + 5*25= $1,375
