Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: $7,000

Explanation:

As the question says, a total of $35,000 is paid for 12,000 square feet of space and that the rent is apportioned on the basis of space.

Department One occupies 2,400 square feet of that space.

Calculating the proportion it occupies is,

= 2,400/12,000

= 20%

Since it occupied 20% of the total space then it should be charged 20% of the rent bill.

= 20% * 35,000

= $7,000

Department One should be charged rent expense for the period of $7,000.

In the past, Taylor Industries has used a fixed−time period inventory system that involved taking a complete inventory count of
N76 [4]

Answer:

a) Taylor Industries can successfully cut back its labor cost in inventory stockrooms by counting only high-value items.  These items are determined by reference to their Annual Usage values.  The items' annual usage values should be used as the activity cost pool for accumulating and allocating labor cost in inventory stockrooms.  Taylor Industries can establish a benchmark or cutoff point so that only the items meeting this benchmark are counted.  For example, the items with annual usage value above $5,000 should be included in the items to be counted.  This strategy will reduce the number of items to be counted and therefore the labor cost.

b) Since item 15 is critical to Taylor Industries' continued operations, it should be classified as a direct materials cost and not an overhead cost.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

a random sample of 20 of Taylor's items:

ITEM NUMBER   ANNUAL USAGE    ITEM NUMBER    ANNUAL USAGE

1                               $ 1,500                      11                       $ 13,000

2                               12,000                     12                              600

3                                2,200                      13                        42,000

4                              50,000                     14                           9,900

5                                9,600                     15                            1,200

6                                   750                      16                         10,200

7                                2,000                      17                          4,000

8                               11,000                      18                         61,000

9                                  800                       19                         3,500

10                            15,000                      20                        2,900

Average annual usage value = $12,657.50
