Answer:

a. $30,000 loss on disposal

Explanation:

Companies frequently sell plant assets to dispose them. To recognize gain or loss on disposal:

First, the company calculates the carrying amount of the asset by using the original cost of the asset, minus all accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment charges.

Then, subtract this carrying amount from the sale price of the asset. If the remainder is positive, it is a gain and if the remainder is negative, it is a loss

On 31 December, 2007, the carrying amount of the asset = $180,000 - $90,000 = $90,000

Sale price - Carrying amount of the asset = $60,000 - $90,000 = -$30,000

=> The company recognizes loss on disposal $30,000

The entry should be made:

Debit Cash $60,000

Debit Accumulated depreciation account $90,000

Debit Loss on asset disposal  $30,000

Credit Plant asset $180,000

Answer:

Production Budget    Jan 10,640        Feb  12,300

Direct Materials Budget    Jan    45216  

Explanation:

Production Budget = Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Opening Inventory

The ending inventory for one month is the opening inventory for the next. We calculate the ending inventory for

Jan= 20% 0f 12000 units=  2400

Feb = 20% of 13500 units= 2700

Fogerty Company makes two products, titanium Hubs and Sprockets. Data regarding the two products follow:
sveta [45]

Answer:

activitity rate:

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}$Activity&$Driver&$cost&$Total&$Rate\\$Machine Setups&setups&72,000&400&180\\$Special processing&$machine hours&200,000&5,000&40\\$General factory&$direct labor hours&816,000&24,000&34\\\end{array}\right]

sprocked unit cost: $ 38.95

hub units cost:        $  93.00

Explanation:

We divide teh cost pool over the total of the cost driver.

This give us the activitty rate.

Then we multiply each rate by the use of each product:

And divide by the total units to get the unti manufacturing overhead

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}$Activity&$Hubs&$Sprockets\\$Machine Setups&18,000&54,000\\$Special processing&200,000&0\\$General factory&272,000&54,4000\\$Total&490,000&598,000\\$Units&10,000&40,000\\$Overhead per unit&49&14.95\\\end{array}\right]

Finally we add the cost component:

Sprocked:

materials $ 18 + $ 15 x 0.40 units + $ 14.95 = 38.95

Hubs

materials $ 32 + $ 15 x 0.80 units + $ 49 = 93

tresset_1 [31]

Answer: $300 billion

Explanation:

The real deficit that a Government has is one that has been adjusted for inflationary effects. It is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate times the total debt from the nominal deficit.

= Nominal deficit - (Inflation rate * Total debt)

= 1.5 trillion - ( 10% * 12 trillion)

= 1.5 trillion - 1.2 trillion

= $300 billion

Select the correct statement regarding managerial and financial accounting. Multiple Choice Timeliness is more important in fina
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Financial accounting is more highly regulated than managerial accounting.

Explanation:

Financial accounting is highly regulated and follows laid down principles that must be followed. International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are two examples of regulatory guidelines for financial accounting.

On the other hand managerial accounting is flexible and tailored to the manager's needs.

It must not follow the strict guidelines of financial accounting. This is because managerial accounting is used internally by a company and is not subject to public scrutiny.
