Answer:

Computer; $ 3800

Printer; $3150

Desk; $4000

File Cabinet; $3200

Explanation:

First we need to determine how to determine the depreciable basis for the asset.

The basis of assets converted from personal use to business use in terms of depreciable amount is the lesser of (1) fair market value on date of conversion or (2) basis on the date of conversion (the cost price)

Now we apply this to the following assets

Computer: Depreciable base of $ 3800 ( FMV < Purchase price )

Printer: $3150 ( FMV < Purchase price )

Desk: $4000 ( FMV < Purchase price )

File Cabinet: $3200 ( FMV > Purchase price )

gavmur [86]

Answer:

a.                                              Debit             Credit

deferred income taxes         $5,400

Income tax expense             $155,600            

                        Income tax payable           $161,000

b. No valuation account related to the deferred tax asset is in existence at the end of 2019, therefore no record should be make

Explanation:

a. In order to record the income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2017 we would have to make the following calculations as follows:

deferred income taxes=($407,000×20%)-$76,000

deferred income taxes=$5,400

Income tax payable=$805,000×20%

Income tax payable=$161,000

Income tax expense=$161,000-$5,400

Income tax expense=$155,600

Therefore, the record of  income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2017, assuming that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized in full would be as follows:

                                               Debit             Credit

deferred income taxes         $5,400

Income tax expense             $155,600            

                        Income tax payable           $161,000

b. No valuation account related to the deferred tax asset is in existence at the end of 2019, therefore no record should be make

Smart Stream Inc. uses the total cost method of applying the cost-plus approach to product pricing. The costs of producing and s
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Smart Stream Inc.

a) Total costs:

Variable costs:

Direct materials = $1,500,000 ($150 x 10,000)

Direct labor = $250,000 ($25 x 10,000)

Factory overhead = $400,000 ($40 x 10,000)

Selling and Administrative = $250,000( $25 x 10,000)

Total variable costs = $2,400,000 ($240 x 10,000)

Fixed Costs:

Factory overhead = $350,000

Selling and admin = $140,000

Total fixed costs = $490,000

I) Total costs = variable plus fixed costs = $2,890,000 ($2,400,000 + 490,000)

II) Total cost per unit = $289 ($2,890,000/10,000)

Explanation:

The total cost method includes all the costs in arriving at the unit cost before adding the desired profit to arrive at the selling price of a product.

Total costs include the cost of goods sold and the expenses incurred in running the business for the period.

It is unlike the product cost-plus and variable cost-plus approaches to product pricing.  For the product cost-plus approach, only the costs of production is taken into consideration for arriving at the selling price.  In that case, the costs of direct materials and labor, and factory overheads would be considered, while variable and fixed selling and administrative costs are excluded.   The unit cost would have been $250.

The variable cost-plus approach considers only the variable elements of costs to arrive at the selling price.  These include the direct materials and labor costs, and variable element of the factory overhead and selling and administrative expenses.  The unit cost would have been $240 as stated in the question.

These different cost-plus pricing approaches are more suitable for some industries than others.  No matter the choice made, it must be noted that they result in different selling prices and can affect the competitiveness of a company.
