Absorption Costing Net Income  1008,000

Variable Costing Net Income     976,000

Explanation:

<u><em>Kodiak Fridgeration Company</em></u>

Units Produced = 80,000

Units Sold = 72,000

Ending Inventory = 8000

<u>Per Units Cost </u>

Direct materials $6,400,000/80,000 = $ 80

Direct labor 1,600,000 /80,000= $ 20

Variable manufacturing cost 1,280,000/80,000= $ 16

Fixed manufacturing cost 320,000 /80,000 = $ 4            

Absorption Manufacturing Cost  per unit= 9,600,000/80,000= $ 120

Variable Manufacturing Costs per unit = $ 116

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

148.02 days

Explanation:

The computation of the cash conversion cycle is shown below:

As we know that

Cash conversion cycle is = Days inventory outstanding + days sale outstanding - days payable outstanding

where,

Number of days inventory outstanding is

= Average inventory ÷ cost of goods sold per day

= $75000 ÷ ($360,000 ÷ 365 days)

= 76.04 days

Number of days sales outstanding is

= Average account receivable ÷ Average sales per day

= $160,000 ÷ ($600,000 ÷ 365)

= 97.33 days

And, the number of days payable outstanding is

= Average accounts payable ÷ cost pf goods sold per day

= $25,000 ÷ ($360,000 ÷ 365)

= 25.35 days

So, the cash conversion cycle is

= 76.04 days + 97.33 days - 25.35 days

= 148.02 days

Total capital gains is

= (End value - Beginning value) × 900 shares

Hence, the  total capital gain on this investment is -$4,608

Therefore the option d is correct

kompoz [17]

Answer:

Corrected Net Income for 2011 = $290,000

Corrected Net Income for 2012 = $410,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The overstated the inventory balance for Dec 31, 2011 = $10,000

The reported Net Income for 2011 =  $300,000

The reported Net Income for 2012 =  $400,000

Now,

Since the inventory is overstated in the year 2011, it will be subtracted from the reported incorrect Net Income for 2011

Thus,

Corrected Net Income for 2011 = $300,000 - $10,000

= $290,000

And, for the year 2012 the overstated inventory will be added to the reported Net Income for 2012

thus,

Corrected Net Income for 2012 = $400,000 + $10,000

= $410,000
