Complete Question:

Pribuss Engineering prepares its financial statements according to International Financial Reporting Standards. During 2018, the company incurred the following costs related to a new product design:

Research for New Design $2.4M

DVMPT of New Product $1.3M

Patent Filing Fees $52K

The development costs were incurred after technological and commercial feasibility was established and after the future economic benefits were deemed probable. The project was successfully completed and the new product was patented before the end of the 2018 fiscal year. What amount should Pribuss expense in its 2018 income statement related to the above expenditures?

Answer:

The Research expenses of $2.4M that are written as expense in the Income statement and the Development costs of $1.3M and patent legal fees of $53k are capitalized.

Explanation:

The reason is that the International Standard IAS 38 Intangible Assets says that the expenditure incurred on the research that hasn't entered development phase must be written as expense in the year and the expenditure incurred on the development phase of the research outcomes must be capitalized to the extent it is ready for use. In this case $1.3M is clearly a development cost and patent legal fees of $53k is the expenditure that will prepare the asset and making it ready for use, so it must also be capitalized.

Answer:

6,000 units

Explanation:

The beginning inventory units are calculated below

We know

Number of units produced = Budgeted units sold + ending inventory units - beginning inventory units

35,000 units = 32,000 units + 9,000 units - beginning inventory units

35,000 units = 41,000 units - beginning inventory units

So, the beginning  inventory units  would be

= 41,000 units - 35,000 units

= 6,000 units

On January 1, 2019, Wasson Company purchased a delivery vehicle costing $40,000. The vehicle has an estimated 6-year life and a
ELEN [110]

Answer:

option (A) $29,920

Explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Purchasing cost = $40,000

Estimated life = 6 years

Salvage value = $4,000

Estimated driving life = 100,000

Vehicle driven in total till 2020 = 10,000 + 18,000 = 28,000

Now,

Using the units-of-production depreciation method

Total depreciation till 2020 = \frac{\textup{Purchasing cost - Salvage value}}{\textup{Estimated driving life}}\times\textup{Total distance driven}

or

Total depreciation till 2020 = \frac{\textup{40,000 - 4,000}}{\textup{100,000}}\times\textup{28,000}

or

Total depreciation till 2020 = $10,080

Thus,

Book value on December 31, 2020 = Purchasing cost - Depreciation

= $40,000 - $10,080

= $29,920

Hence,

The correct answer is option (A) $29,920

The weighted average cost of capital can be computed by multiplying the Cost of capital (after tax) with the weights. The weighted average cost for four plans are as follows

WACC = Cost of capital x Weights

PLAN A

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                         3.0 %                    15 %                0.45%    

Preferred stock       6.0                        10%                0.6%

Common equity      10.0                      75%               7.5%

WACC                                                                          8.55%

PLAN B

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                         3.2 %                  25%                0.8%    

Preferred stock       6.2                      10%                0.62%

Common equity      11.0                      65%               7.15%

WACC                                                                         8.57%

PLAN C

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                          4.0 %                   35 %                1.4%    

Preferred stock        6.7                        10%                0.67%

Common equity       10.6                      55%               5.83%

WACC                                                                          7.90%

PLAN D

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                         7.0 %                   45 %                3.15%    

Preferred stock       7.6                       10%                 0.76%
