Journal Entry

Dr Land+/-177,693.75

Dr Land improvements+/-59,231.25

Dr Building+/-157,950.00

Cr Cash+/-394,875.00

Explanation:

Land appraised at $189,000

Land improvements appraised at $63,000 Building appraised at $168,000

TOTAL 420,000

% of Total × Total cost of Acquisition

Appraisal

volume

45% ×394,875=177,693.75Apportioned cost

15% ×394,875=59,231.25 Apportioned cost

40%×394,875=157,950.00 Apportioned cost

Total 100% =394,875.00

Purchase price 375,000 + Closing cost 19,875 = Total cost of acquisition 394,875

For percentage use total cost divided by appraised value 189,000 / 420,000 = 45%

For percentage use total cost divided by appraised value 63,000 / 420,000 = 15%

For percentage use total cost divided by appraised value 168,000 / 420,000 = 40%

Allocation of total cost: Land(394,875x 0.45) = 177,693.75.00 + land improvement (394,875 x 0.15) = 59,231.25+ building (394,875 x 0.4) = 157,950.00

177,693.75+59,231.25+157,950.00= Total 394,875.00

Answer:

1. Land cost $177,693.75

  Land improvement cost $59,231.25

  Building cost $157,950 .00

2. Debit Land  $177,693.75

   Debit  Land improvements  $59,231.25

   Credit Building $157,950 .00

Being entry to record the cost of real estate purchased.

Explanation:

Total cost of the real estate purchase will include the closing cost which is a key cost element. The allocated costs among the 3 purchased assets will be done proportionally to the appraised cost of each asset.

Total appraised value of the real estate purchased

= $189,000 + $63,000 + $168,000

= $420,000

Total cost of real estate based on payment

= $375,000 + $19,875

= $394,875

Cost allocated to;

Land improvements = ($63,000/$420,000) × $394,875

= $59,231.25

Land = ($189,000/$420,000) × $394,875

= $177,693.75

Building = ($168,000/$420,000) × $394,875

= $157,950 .00

The entry required would be debits to the individual assets account and a lump sum credit to cash for the transaction.

Pets Inc. makes 2 products, dog collars and cat collars. Each passes through the cutting machine, which is the binding constrain
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Dog Collar 10,000 units

Cat Collar 15,000 units

Explanation:

We have only constraint of 2,000 hours on the cutting machine.

First we will calculate the Contribution margin per hour

Contribution margin per hour = Contribution margin per unit / Numbers of hours required per unit

Dog Collar = $10 / (6/60)hours = 10 / 0.1 = $100 per hour

Cat Collar = $8 / (4/60) hours = $120 per hour

Pets Inc. will make Cat collar more than dog

Hours required for 15,000 unit of Cat Collar = 15000 x 4 / 60 = 1,000 hours

Hours for Dog Collars = 2,000 - 1000 = 1000 hour

Unit of Dog Collar = 1000 hours / (6/60) = 10,000 units
