Answer:

$46,800

Explanation:

Total overhead costs based on traditional systems of both products are: $52,000 +$78,000 = $130,000

Assuming that Perry Corporation applies the activity-based (setups and components) costing system instead of the traditional one, the overhead cost for the standard model can be calculated as following:

+) Overhead cost of each setup (for both products) = $52,000/(12 + 28) = $1,300

+) Overhead cost of each components (for both products)

= 78,000 / (8+12) = $3,900

=> Total overhead costs using activity - based costing system is:

<em>Total overhead costs = 1,300 x Number setups needed for standard model + 3,900 x Number of components needed for standard model</em>

<em>= 1,300 x 12 + 3,900 x 8 </em>

= $46,800

Degger [83]

Answer:

It is preferable to further process Product A.

Explanation:

Product should be processed further before sale if the net incremental benefits from further processing is positive.

The net incremental benefits from further processing is increase in revenue when further processed less further costs of processing.

Increase in revenue=$58,000-$40,000

                                 =$18,000

Further processing costs=$15,000

Net incremental benefits=$18,000-$15,000

Net incremental benefits=$3,000

Since processing further brings a net benefit of $3,000, Product A should be further processed before being sold.

laiz [17]

Answer:

a)

MACRS 3 year depreciation schedule

33.33% x $2,300,000 = $766,590

44.45% x $2,300,000 = $1,022,350

14.81% x $2,300,000 = $340,630

carrying value at end of year 3 = $170,430

net after tax cash flow from salvage value = $210,000 - [($210,000 - $170,430) x 22%] = $201,294.60

cash flows:

year 0 = -$2,300,000 - $270,000 = -$2,570,000

year 1 = [($1,720,000 - $628,000 - $766,590) x 0.78] + $766,590 = $1,020,410

year 2 = [($1,720,000 - $628,000 - $1,022,350) x 0.78] + $1,022,350 = $1,076,677

year 3 = [($1,720,000 - $628,000 - $340,630) x 0.78] + $340,630 + $201,294.60 + $270,000 = $1,397,993

Degregorio Corporation makes a product that uses a material with the following direct material standards: Standard quantity 2.5
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Materials quantity variance = $1,750(U)

Explanation:

Standard quantity(SQ) = $2.5 * 6600 = 16500 Kg

Standard Price( SP) = $5  

Actual quantity(AQ) = 16,850 Kg  

Actual Price( AP) = $90,720 / 18,900 kg = $4.8

Materials quantity variance = SP * (SQ - AQ)  

Materials quantity variance = 5 * ( 16500 - 16,850 )

Materials quantity variance = 5 * (350)

Materials quantity variance = $1,750(U)
