Answer:
The answer is: B) purchase records are not maintained.
Explanation:
There are two methods for estimating inventory costs:
- Gross Profit Method
: uses the information from the income statement. If operating conditions remain similar, the proportion between total sales, profits and COGS should be similar (lets say profit is 30% and COGS is 70% of total sales). You can estimate your inventory costs by using the information on total sales.
- Retail Method: It is used mostly by merchandising firms (retailers) that have consistent mark-ups. You have to determine the proportion between cost and retail price (lets say the COGS is 80% of the retail price). Then if you are given the retail inventory, you can determine the COGS using the proportion determined previously.
Answer:
c) $7200
Explanation:
Preference dividends have preference when it comes to payment of dividends.
This means that we pay the Preference Stock holders their dividend (which is fixed) and there after the remainder is paid up to the Common Stockholders
Preference dividend = 900 shares x $100 x 4 % = $3600
When Preference Stock is Cumulative, it means that all previous dividends in arrears have to be paid up before any current year distributions are made.
<u>2018</u>
Cumulative Preference dividend = $3600 (2017) + $3600 (2018) = $7200
therefore,
Dividends in arrears at December 31, 2018 total $7200
Answer:
Predetermined overhead rate=$19.5/machine hour
The company applied $877500 to the units produced.
Explanation:
a) Pre-determined overhead rate= <u>Budgeted overhead manufacturing cost</u>
Estimated number of machine hours
=975000/50000=$19.5/machine hour.
b)Applied overhead = Pre-determined overhead rate * Actual machine hours
= 19.5 * 45000
=$877500.
c.
In traditional costing we use as base for calculating overhead rate is machine hours or labor hours but in activity based costing we identify activity that consume resources,identify cost driver of each activity,compute cost rate per cost driver unit and finally assign cost to products by multiplying cost driver rate.
Predetermined overhead rate= estimated overhead/Estimated base (cost driver).
Answer:
Indenture
Deferred call provision
Explanation:
Indenture is defined as the contract that describes the terms of a borrowing arrangement between a firm that sells a bond issue and the investors who purchase the bonds.
A call provision is defined as the right that the issuer of a security has to call or redeem the security at certain times and under specific conditions.
The call provision in which the issuer is prevented from calling a portion or the entire issue for several years during the early years of the bond issue is called deferred call provision.
Answer:
The number of shares of stock issued in the stock dividend is 5,312.20 shares.
Explanation:
This can be determined as follows:
Number of shares before stock dividend = Number of shares reported on January 1, 2019 - Number of shares purchased for its treasury on March 24, 2019 + Number of treasury shares were sold on August 19, 2019 = 268,000 - 3,000 + 610 = 265,610
Number of dividend shares = Number of shares before stock dividend * Rate of stock dividend issued = 265,610 * 2% = 5,312.20
Therefore, the number of shares of stock issued in the stock dividend is 5,312.20 shares.
