On January 3, 2013, Roberts Company purchased 30% of the 100,000 shares of common stock of Thomas Corporation, paying $1,500,000

. There was no goodwill or other cost allocation associated with the investment. Roberts has significant influence over Thomas. During 2013, Thomas reported income of $300,000 and paid dividends of $100,000. On January 4, 2014, Roberts sold 15,000 shares for $800,000.

Answer:

The appropriate journal entry to record the sale of the 15,000 shares:

Dr Cash                                            800,000

Cr Investment - Thomas Corp       780,000

Cr Gain on investment disposal    20,000

(to record the investment disposal of 15,000 Thomas Corp's shares)

Explanation:

Before the disposal of the investment on Thomas, Roberts Co. should use the equity method to account for this investment because 30% of Thomas' shares which is 30,000 ( 100,000 x 30%) is possessed by Robert Co. and Robert Co. has significant influence over Thomas.

So, by the end of 2013, Robert's treatment to this investment should be:

Opening balance as of 2013:        $1,500,000

Plus: Share of net profit        :        $90,000   (calculated as 300,000 x 30%)

Minus: Dividend received     :        $(30,000) (calculated as 100,000 x 30%)

Closing balance as of 2013:          $1,560,000

=> Value per share = 1,560,000 / 30,000 = $52.

So, as at January 4 2014, because 15,000 shares is sold, the Investment account is Credited ( decreased) by $780,000 ( 52 x 15,000) and the total sales's receipt of $800,000 will generate the profit of $20,000 ( calculated as $800,000 - $780,000).

Which of the following constitutes constructive receipt in the current year ended December​ 31?a. A salary check received at​ 6:
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

a. A salary check received at​ 6:00 p.m. on December​ 31, after all the banks have closed.

b. A rent check received on December 30 by the manager of an apartment complex. The manager normally collects the rent for the owner. The owner was out of town.

Explanation:

The principle of constructive receipt is determined by when the person who receives the income had control over it. An individual or company is considered to have control over income when it is credited to that person or company. Basically, it's when you could spend that income if you wanted, even if you don't spend it.

From the principle of constructive receipt in the above paragraph, only option a (A salary check received at​ 6:00 p.m. on December​ 31, after all the banks have closed.) and b ( A rent check received on December 30 by the manager of an apartment complex. The manager normally collects the rent for the owner. The owner was out of town.) fall within the category. The other three options, the person is unable to spend the check even if they wanted to, until after December 31.

You are offered Birr 1,000 today, Birr 10,000 in 12 years, or Birr 25,000 in 25 years. Assuming that you can earn 11 percent on
Usimov [2.4K]

Based on the amounts that you are offered and their present values, the offer you should pick is Birr 10,000 in 12 years.

<h3>Which offer should you pick?</h3>

You should pick the offer with the highest present value.

Offer 1 present value:

= Birr 1,000

Offer 2 present value:

= 10,000 / (1 + 11%)²

= Birr 2,858

Offer 3 present value:

= 25,000 / (1 + 11%)³

= Birr 1,840

(b) units still in process at June 30 = $1,196

<u>Journals</u>

Work In Process :Direct Materials $4,305 (debit)

Raw Materials $4,305 (credit)

<em>Being Raw Materials used in Production</em>

Work In Process :Direct Labor  $3,320 (debit)

Salaries Payable $3,320  (credit)

<em>Being Labor used in Production</em>

Overheads $1,738 (credit)

<em>Being Overheads Assigned to Production</em>

Finished Goods $6,732 (debit)

Work In Process $6,732 (credit)

<em>Being Units transferred to Finished Goods</em>

Explanation:

<u>Calculation of Equivalent units of Production in respect with Raw Materials and Conversion Costs</u>

1. Materials

Ending Work In Process (5,200 × 100%)                                         5,200

Completed and Transferred Out (15,300 × 100%)                         15,300

Equivalent units of Production in respect with Raw Materials     30,500

2. Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process (5,200 × 30%)                                            1,560

Completed and Transferred Out (15,300 × 100%)                         15,300

Equivalent units of Production in respect with Conversion Cost 16,860

<u>Calculation of Cost per Equivalent unit of production  in respect with Raw Materials and Conversion Costs</u>

Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent units

1. Materials

Unit Cost =  $4,305 ÷ 30,500

                = $0.14

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost =  ($3,320 + $1,738) ÷ 16,860

                = $0.30

3. Total unit cost

Total unit cost = Material Cost + Conversion Cost

                        = $0.14 + $0.30

                        = $0.44

<u>Calculation of costs assigned to (a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods and (b) units still in process at June 30.</u>

(a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods

Total Cost = units completed and transferred out × total unit cost

                 = 15,300 × $0.44

                 = $6,732

(b) units still in process at June 30.

Total Cost = Materials Cost + Conversion Cost

                 = $0.14 × 5,200 + $0.30 × 1,560

                 = $1,196

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

d. $1,875 unfavorable

Explanation:

Direct material quantity variance is computed as;

= (AQ - SQ) × SP

AQ = Actual quantity = 6,300 units

SQ = Standard quantity = 14,200 / 2 = 7,300 units

SP = Standard price = $0.80

Direct material quantity variance

= (6,300 - 7,300) × 0.80

= -1,000 × $0.80

= -1,875 unfavorable
