Explanation:

a) A 10-column worksheet is a tool used by accountants to close the temporary accounts, after necessary adjustments, and then extract a balance sheet.  It comprises two columns (debit and credit) for each of the following: Unadjusted Trial Balance, Adjusting Entries, Adjusted Trial Balance, Income Statement, and Balance Sheet.

b) A closing entry is a journal entry that is made at the end of an accounting period to transfer balances from a temporary account to a permanent account.  The four basic steps in the closing process are: Closing the revenue accounts—transferring the credit balances in the revenue accounts to a clearing account called Income Summary. Closing the expense accounts—transferring the debit balances in the expense accounts to a clearing account called Income Summary.  Extracting a balance between the revenue accounts and the expense accounts, called the net income or loss.  Closing the net income or loss to the Retained Earnings.

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

recognized on March 31 after the delivery of the equipment

Explanation:

Revenue is recognized once the recognition criteria is met. These criteria includes;

  • the cost of the item sold can be measured reliably
  • the items has been delivered or the service has been rendered

Given that the contract specified a delivery date of March 1.

The equipment was not delivered until March 31 and as such, the revenue for the contract should be recognized on March 31 after the delivery of the equipment.

Watson Company has monthly fixed costs.. Watson Company has monthly fixed costs of $91,000 and what dollar amount of sales must
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Watson Company has monthly fixed costs of $91,000.

Contribution margin ratio= 0.40

To calculate the dollar amount of sales, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 91,000/0.4= 227,500

A) Desired profit= 15,800

Break-even point (dollars)= (91,000 + 15,800) / 0.40= 267,000

B) Desired profit= 267,000

Break-even point (dollars)= (91,000 + 267,000) / 0.40= 895,000

C) Desired profit= 106,800

Break-even point (dollars)= (91,000 + 106,800) / 0.40= 494,500

D) Desired profit= 227,500

Break-even point (dollars)= (91,000 + 227,500) / 0.40= 796,250

Waterway Corporation purchased a new machine for its assembly process on August 1, 2020. The cost of this machine was $162,900.
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

(a) Straight Line Depreciation for 2020 $  28,800

(b) Activity Method of Depreciation for 2020 $ 5,616

(c) Sum of the years Depreciation for 2021 $ 38,400

(d) Double declining balance depreciation for 2021 $ 39,096

Explanation:

Computation for requirement (a) - Straight Line Depreciation for 2020

Straight line method considers depreciation on adepreciable base after considering a salvage value and spreads it evenly over the life of the asset.

Cost of machine                                     $ 162,900

Estimated Salvage Value                       <u>$   18.900</u>

Depreciable Basis                                   $ 144,000

Estimated Life                                             5 years

Straight Line Depreciation for 2020 = $ 144,000/5 = $ 28,800      

Computation for requirement (b) - Activity Method  Depreciation for 2020

Activity method depreciation considers depreciation over the estimated usage of the asset and multiplies by the usage in a given period. The depreciable basis is after considering the salvage value.

Depreciable basis - same as SL depreciation                       $ 144,000

Usage Life of the machine                                                         20,000 hours

Machine usage for 2020                                                                  780 hours

Depreciation on a per hour basis      $ 144,000/ 20,000 = $ 7.2 per hour

Depreciation for 2020 on a usage of 780 hours = 780 * $7.20 = $ 5,616      

Computation for requirement (c) - Sum of the years digits for 2021    

In a sum of the years depreciation method, the sum of the life of the assets are added and considered as a depreciable life. The salvage value is considered in determining the depreciable basis.

Depreciable basis - same as SL depreciation                       $ 144,000            

Estimated life of the asset                                                      5 years

Sum of the years, (5+4+3+2+1)                                                  15

so the first year depreciation shall be 5/15, the next year 4/15 and so on,

We need to compute the depreciation for 2021 which is the second year, so the formula shall be:

4/15 (remaining useful life) * $ 144,000(depreciable basis) = $ 38,400

Computation for requirement (d) - Double declining balance  for 2021

In a double declining balance method the depreciation rate (%) is double that of a straight line method. The subsequent years depreciation is on a reduced balance. No salvage value is considered

The first year's depreciation is calculated

Cost of Machine* (2 * Straight Line depreciation %)

$ 162,900* (2 * 20 %) so the depreciation for 2020 would be

$ 162,900 * 40 % = $ 65,160.

For 2021, which is the requirement in our question, the cost would be the reduced value.

Original Cost of the machine                                    $ 162,900

Double Declining balance Depreciation  2020       <u>$  65,160</u>

Declining Cost basis for 2021 depreciation             <u>$   97,740</u>  

Depreciation @ 40 %                                                 $  39,096
