Exercise 19-9 Income statement under absorption costing and variable costing LO P1, P2 IThe following information applies to the
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

When you are calculating variable costing, COGS only includes variable costs. All fixed costs are included as period costs at the end. Fixed costs are not carried forward either.        

             <u> Income Statement (variable costing) - J Cool Sky</u>

total sales $140 x 36,000 units sold =                                   $5,040,000

variable COGS                                                                        ($3,240,000)

variable direct costs ($60 + $22) x 36,000 = ($2,952,000)

<u>variable overhead ($8 x 36,000)                       ($288,000)                       </u>        

manufacturing margin                                                              $1,800,000

<u>variable administrative and selling costs ($11 x 36,000) =     ($396,000)  </u>  

contribution margin                                                                   $1,404,000

fixed costs                                                                                  ($633,000)

fixed overhead =                                               ($528,000)

<u>administrative and selling =                              ($105,000)                           </u> 

net income                                                                                    $771,000

In order to prepare the income statement using absorption costing, we must first determine COGS = [(total variable manufacturing costs + total fixed manufacturing costs) / total output] x units actually sold

COGS = {[($60 + $22 + $8) x 44,000] + $528,000} / 44,000] x 36,000 = [($3,960,000 + $528,000) / 44,000] x 36,000 = $102 x 36,000 = $3,672,000

          <u> Income Statement (absorption costing) - J Cool Sky</u>

total sales $140 x 36,000 units sold =                                   $5,040,000

<u>COGS                                                                                      ($3,672,000)</u>

gross profit                                                                                $1,368,000

variable administrative and selling costs $11 x 36,000 =       ($396,000)    

<u>fixed administrative and selling costs                                      ($105,000)</u>

net income                                                                                  $867,000

The difference between both accounting methods is that variable costing includes all fixed manufacturing costs during the period and the ending inventory is carried forward only at a lower cost since it only includes variable costs. Absorption costing calculates ending inventory using the total fixed costs, that is why COGS is lower.

On September 30, 2021, Athens Software began developing a software program to shield personal computers from malware and spyware
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

1. Prepare the journal entries to record the development costs in 2021 and 2022. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

December 31, 2021

Dr Research and development expenses 2,300,000

    Cr Cash 2,300,000

February 28, 2022

Dr Research and development expenses 900,000

    Cr Cash 900,000

April 30, 2022

Dr Software development 500,000

    Cr Cash 500,000

2. Calculate the required amortization for 2022. (Enter your answer in whole dollars.)

  • $66,667 (8 months, from May to December)

Explanation:

development costs:

September 30, 2021 to December 31, 2021 = $2,300,000

January 1, 2022 to February 28, 2022 =  $900,000

R&D costs that must be expensed = $3,200,000

R&D costs that can be capitalized (after technological feasibility is obtained) = $500,000

Software developing companies can capitalize costs incurred after technological feasibility but before the software is launched.

Capitalized costs can be amortized over 60 months:

$500,000 x 8/60 = $66,666.67

Janice wants to sell her townhome, and her neighbor is considering buying it. While waiting to find out if her neighbor is going
Finger [1]

Answer:

An exclusive agency agreement will save Janice the cost of a commission.

Explanation:

An exclusive agency is an agreement between a seller and a real estate agent which grants the agent the right to be the only authorized agent to market and sell a property. However, the seller retains the right to sell the property independently of the agent, in which case, no commission is payable to the agent.

In the given scenario, Janice wants to market her home and receive the best representation possible. Hence, she requires the services of an agent in order to do so. However, Janice would want to retain the right to be able to sell the property on her own. This way, if her neighbor does ultimately decide to buy the property, Janice can simply sell it to the neighbor without having to pay any commission to her agent.

Shandra is very direct <u>responsive.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

To get to know what the organisation or the business is going through, what problems it has to deal with, what are the causes of the poor results that have been shown by the organisation, it would be best if the employees working in the organisation or in the business are asked questions about.

The employees should be asked to be as much responsive as possible so that problems can be brought up and they can be solved as soon as the possible by finding the best solution possible.
