Whispering Company acquired a plant asset at the beginning of Year 1. The asset has an estimated service life of 5 years. An emp

loyee has prepared depreciation schedules for this asset using three different methods to compare the results of using one method with the results of using other methods. You are to assume that the following schedules have been correctly prepared for this asset using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the sum-of-the-years'-digits method, and (3) the double-declining-balance method. Year Straight-Line Sum-of-the- Years'-Digits Double-Declining- Balance 1 $10,980 $18,300 $24,400 2 10,980 14,640 14,640 3 10,980 10,980 8,784 4 10,980 7,320 5,270 5 10,980 3,660 1,806 Total $54,900 $54,900 $54,900

Solution:

The basis of the straight line is a depreciation and amortization process estimate. That is the best way to calculate the loss of value of a capital asset over time also known as direct depreciation.

The straight line basis is determined by dividing by either the number of years it is planned to use the variations between the cost of such an asset and the estimated recovery value.

--- use double-declining value year 1

(1/5) x 2 = 0.40

--- Cost x 40% = 22400

--- 22400 / 0.40 = 56,000

Savage value:

56,000 - 50,400 = 5,600

Zanny Moldings has the following estimated costs for the upcoming year:
Sloan [31]

Answer:

D) $31.

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:  

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead ÷ estimated direct labor hours

where,

Estimated manufacturing overhead is

= Salary of factory supervisor + Heating and lighting costs for factory + Depreciation on factory equipment

= $37,600 + $22,000 + $5,600

= $65,200

And, the direct labor hours is 2,100

So, the predetermined overhead rate is

= $65,200 ÷ 2,100

= $31

In 2021, CPS Company changed its method of valuing inventory from the FIFO method to the average cost method. At December 31, 20
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Entry to record adjustment:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Explanation:

The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.

The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:

Entry:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

At the beginning of the year, Smith Company budgeted overhead of $129,600 as well as 13,500 direct labor hours. During the year,
andre [41]

Answer:

Part 1

$9.60

Part 2

$11,129

Part 3

Journal 1

Debit : Overheads $172,500

Credit : Equipment lease $ 6,800

Credit : Depreciation on building 19,340

Credit : Indirect labor 90,400

Credit : Utilities 14,560

Credit : Other overhead 41,400

<em>Being overheads incurred</em>

Journal 2

Debit : Work In Process $173,760

Credit : Overheads $173,760

<em>Being overheads applied</em>

Part 4

under-applied overheads is $1,260

Part 5

$636,860

Explanation:

Overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity

                        = $129,600 ÷ 13,500

                        = $9.60

Total cost (Job K456)  = $2,750 + $5,355 + $3,024 = $11,129

Actual Overheads = $ 6,800 + $19,340 + $90,400 + $14,560 + $41,400 = $172,500

Applied overheads = 18,100 x $9.60 = $173,760

Since, Actual Overheads < Applied overheads, overheads have been under-applied. Amount of under-applied overheads is $1,260 ($173,760 - $172,500)

Under-applied overheads are added to cost of goods sold. Therefore, adjusted cost of goods sold will be $636,860 ($635,600 + $1,260)

Suppose that, in an attempt to raise more revenue, Anywhere State University increases its tuition. Will this necessarily result
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

1. That will not necessarily result in more revenue because it depends on the price elasticity of demand for the schools tuition fees

Explanation:

Suppose that, in an attempt to raise more revenue, Anywhere State University increases its tuition.

1. That will not necessarily result in more revenue because it depends on the price elasticity of demand for the schools tuition fees

2. Under the conditions that price is in-elastic, revenue will rise,

Under the conditions that price is elastic, revenue will fall,

Depending on the mix of reaction, if there is a 50% elasticity and 50% in-elasticity, revenue may remain the same.

3. Explain this process, focusing on the relationship between the increased revenue from students enrolling at ASU despite the higher tuition

<em>This would mean that schooling at ASU has an inelastic demand as earlier stated.</em>

4. Explain the process of  lost revenue from possible lower enrollment.

<em>This would mean that schooling at ASU has an elastic demand as earlier stated.</em>

5. If the true price elasticity were -1.1, what would you suggest the university do to expand revenue?

<em>Above unitary elasticity implies that the demand for the school is very elastic i.e. revenue will fall with increase in tuition fees</em>

<em />

6. If I were the president of ASU, I would tackle this problem <em>based on what I have learned about price elasticity by reducing tuition fees a little to increase revenue much more since the price elasticity is above 1.</em>
