Answer:

= $9,167

Explanation:

What information do we have relevant to our question

The Current Operating Capacity = 94%

The Current Sales = $840,000

The Current fixed Asset = $500,000

The Projected Sales = $910,000

Step 1: we determine the Sales at full capacity

= Current Sales/ The Capacity of the Fixed Asset

= $840,000 / 0.94 = 893,617.021276

Step 2: We determine the Percentage of Fixed Assets

= Current Fixed Asst / The Sales at full capacity

= $500,000/ 893,617.021276

= 0.5595238095

Step 3: We determine the Required Total fixed Assets

=Percentage of fixed assets x Projected sales.

= 0.5595238095 x $910,000

= 509,166.666645

Step 4:: We calculate the New Fixed Asset needed to support sales growth

= Total Fixed Assets calculated in step 3 - The Current Fixed Assets

=   509,166.666645 - $500,000

= $9,167

Answer:

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Profit as per FIFO is higher than profit as per LIFO

Explanation:

In the given case, as per both the methods computation shall be as follows:

Date                    Quantity                   Rate              Amount

Mar 1                     22 units                   $29                 $638

Jun 16                   31 units                    $30                 $930

Nov 28                 41 units                     $37                 $1,517

Total                     94 units                                           $3,085

Closing units = 18

That means sales = 94 - 18 = 76 units

Thus as per LIFO cost = 41 units @ $37 + 31 units @ $30 + 4 units @ $29

= $2,563

Closing stock = 18 units @ $29 = $522

As per FIFO cost = 22 units @ $29 + 31 units @ $30 + 23 units @ $37 = $2,419

Closing stock = 18 units @ $37 = $666

Thus, difference of closing stock = $666 - $522 = $144

Profit as per FIFO is higher by $144

Cost is higher in LIFO by $2,563 - $2,419 = $144

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Coronado Company has recorded bad debt expense in the past at a rate of 1.5% of accounts receivable, based on an aging analysis.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The cumulative effect of changing the estimate for bad debt expenses is $0.

Explanation:

Changes in accounting estimates are shown for the period of change and future period if the change affects future period also. These changes are not carried back to adjust prior years.

The cumulative effect of changing the estimated bad debt rate to 2% from 1.5 % will be shown only for 2020.

Increased bad debt expense in 2020 will be $108,400 when 2% rate was used.

If the new rate had been used in prior years, cumulative bad debt expense would have been $380,000 instead of $285,000. In 2020, bad debt expense will be $108,400 instead of $81,300.

Coronado’s tax rate = 30%  

So bad debt expense will increase by $108,400 and Allowance for doubtful accounts will increase by $108,400 in 2020.

But the cumulative effect of changing the estimated bad debt rate will be 0.

Change in bad debt expenses estimate is not retrospective also tax will not change due to changes in estimate.

Therefore, The cumulative effect of changing the estimate for bad debt expenses is $0.
