Stones Corporation uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours to apply overhead to the manufacturing process. Las

likoan [24]

Answer: $5 per machine hour

Explanation:

Given the following :

Estimated manufacturing overhead cost = $550,000

Expected machine-hour to be incurred = 110,000

Actual manufacturing overhead = $575,000

Actual machine hour incurred = 120,000

The manufacturing overhead application rate:

Expected manufacturing overhead cost / Expected machine hour to be incurred

= $550,000 / 110,000 machine hour

= $5 per machine hour

The Blackburn Group has recently issued 20minusyear, unsecured bonds rated BB by Moody's. These bonds yield 443 basis points a

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, convert the basis points to a percentage or decimal;

1 basis point = 0.01% or 0.0001 as a decimal

Then 443 basis points as a decimal will be;

443 *0.0001 = 0.0443 or 4.43% as a percentage

Next, since the BB bond is 4.43% above the U.S. Treasury yield of 2.76%, find the Yield to maturity(YTM) by adding the 4.43% to the 2.76%;

YTM = 2.76% + 4.43%

YTM = 7.19%

likoan [24]

Answer:

1. Prepare the journal entry to record Tanner-UNF’s investment in the bonds on July 1, 2018 and interest on December 31, 2018, at the effective (market) rate.

July 1, investment in UNF bonds

Dr Investment in bonds HTM 200,000,000

Cr Cash 160,000,000

Cr Discount on bonds 40,000,000

December 31, interest revenue from investment in bonds

Dr Cash 7,000,000

Dr Discount on bonds 200,000

Cr Interest revenue 7,200,000

Discount on bonds = ($160,000,000 x 4.5%) - ($200,000,000 x 3.5%) = $7,200,000 - $7,000,000 = $200,000

2. Prepare any additional journal entry necessary for Tanner-UNF to report its investment in the December 31, 2018, balance sheet.

Investment in bonds HTM = $200,000,000 (face value) - $39,800,000 (discount on bonds) = $160,200,000

Changes in the market value of bonds held to maturity are not considered by the company.

4. Suppose Moody's bond rating agency downgraded the risk rating of the bonds motivating Tanner-UNF to sell the investment on January 2, 2019, for $310.0 million. Prepare the journal entry to record the sale.

Dr Cash 150,000,000

Dr Dr Discount on bonds 39,800,000

Dr Loss on investment in bonds HTM 10,200,000

Cr Investment in bonds HTM 200,000,000

Cost allocation involves:_______.A. Identifying a cost driver for each cost to be allocated. B. Calculating an allocation rate f

Bess [88]

Answer:

d. all of the answers are correct

Explanation:

Cost allocation is being done:

1) to influence management behavior and thus promote goal and managerial effort,

2) to measure inventory costs and to know of goods sold on a product or project,

3) to justify cost (e.g to justify an accepted bid).

For example, if you are to determine the amount of electricity consumed at a particular period, the number of units consumed determines the total cost to be paid for the electricity consumed. In such an instance, the number of units of electricity consumed is a Cost Driver.

A cost driver is the most appropriate way of calculating or determining a specific cost.

Variable cost drivers can come in the form of hourly costs, costs per unit, or batch costs, among others.

Cost drivers can be fixed costs, such as in the case of set-up costs.

You have the following information for Crane Company for the month ended October 31, 2022. Crane uses a periodic method for inve

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Crane Company

1. Weighted average cost per unit = $25.032

2. (1) LIFO (2) FIFO (3) Average-cost

Ending inventory $1,580 $1,940 $1,752

Cost of goods sold 6,180 5,820 6,008

Sales revenue $9,150 $9,150 $9,150

Gross profit 2,970 3,330 3,142

Gross profit rate 32.5% 36.4% 34.3%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date Description Units Unit Cost or Selling Price Total

Oct. 1 Beginning inventory 50 $22 $1,100

Oct. 9 Purchase 110 24 2,640

Oct. 11 Sale (90) $35 $3,150

Oct. 17 Purchase 90 26 2,340

Oct. 22 Sale (50) 40 2,000

Oct. 25 Purchase 60 28 1,680

Oct. 29 Sale (100) 40 4,000

Total 310 (240) = 70 $7,760 $9,150

Weighted average cost per unit = $25.032

LIFO:

Ending inventory

= (50 * $22) + (20 * $24)

= $1,100 + $480

= $1,580

Cost of goods sold = $7,760 - $1,580 = $6,180

FIFO:l

Ending inventory:

= (60 * $28) + (10 * $26)

= $1,680 + $260 = $1,940

Cost of goods sold = $7,760 - $1,940 = $5,820

Weighted-average costs:

Ending inventory = 70 * $25.032 = $1,752

Cost of goods sold = $7,760 = $1,752 = $6,008
