At the end of 2003, Ritzcar Co. fails to accrue sales commissions earned during 2003, but paid in 2004. The error is not repeate

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital is that it overstated the ending 2003 working capital.

The error does not have effect on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance.

Explanation:

Let the amount of the commission expense be xxxx.

At the end of 2003, the journal entries should have been as follows:

Debit Commission expense for xxxx

Credie Commission payable for xxxx

Also, we have:

Working capital = Current assets – Current liabilities ………… (1)

From equation (1), current liabilities are understated because commission payable which was not recorded is an item under current liabilities. Since the current liabilities are understated, that indicates that the working capital in equation is overstated. Therefore, the effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital is that it overstated the ending 2003 working capital.

When the 2003 commission expense in the entries above was paid in 2004, it would have been recognized as an expense. This made the error to counterbalance. This implies that the 2004 ending retained earnings balance is still correct despite that there are errors in the earnings of the two years. Therefore, the error does not have effect on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance.

butalik [34]

Answer:

$1,875; $1,787.50; $2,837.50

$562.50

Explanation:

Initial balance in account = $1700 and 125,000 EUR is the contractual size of one EUR at a price of $1.3140

Day 1 : $1.3126

Closing price = (1.3140-1.3126)(125,000)

= $175;

Current balance = 1700 + 175

= $1,875

Day 2 : $1.3133

Closing price. = (1.3126 - 1.3133)(125,000)

= $87.50.

Current balance = 1875 - 87.50

= $1787.50 (Deduct in balance due to loss)

Day 3 : $1.3049

Closing price = (1.3133 - 1.3049)(125,000)

= $1050.

Current balance = 1787.50 + 1050

= $2837.50

Long position in future contract:

= 1700 + (1.3126 - 1.3140) + (1.3133 - 1.3126) + (1.3049 - 1.3133) × EUR 125,000

= $562.50

Minstrel Manufacturing uses a job order costing system. During one month, Minstrel purchased $206,000 of raw materials on credit

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

$14,000 under applied

Explanation:

Given that

Material production = $203,000

Application rate = 150%

The computation of amount of overhead is shown below:-

Overhead = Material production × Application rate

= $203,000 - ($126,000 × 1.5)

= $203,000 - $189,000

= $14,000 under applied

Therefore, for computing the overhead we simply multiply the material production with application rate percentage.
