ast Co. produces its product through two processing departments. Direct materials are added at the start of production in the Cu

tting department, and conversion costs are added evenly throughout each process. The company uses monthly reporting periods for its weighted-average process costing system. The Work in Process Inventory-Cutting account has a balance of $87,300 as of October 1, which consists of $18,000 of direct materials and $69,300 of conversion costs. During the month, the Cutting department incurred the following costs: Direct materials $ 121,600 Conversion 866,800 At the beginning of the month, 31,500 units were in process. During October, the company started 143,000 units and transferred 153,000 units to the Assembly department. At the end of the month, the Cutting department's work in process inventory consisted of 21,500 units that were 80% complete with respect to conversion costs. Required: 1. Prepare the Cutting department's process cost summary for October using the weighted-average method. 2. Prepare the journal entry dated October 31 to transfer the cost of the partially completed units to Assembly.

Answer:

Part 1. Prepare the Cutting department's process cost summary for October using the weighted-average method.

Debits: (Inputs)

                                                           $

Opening Work In Progress         87,300

Raw Materials                              121,600

Conversion Costs                      866,800        

Total                                          1,075,700

Credits : (Outputs)      

                                                           $

Closing Work In Progress            111,800

Completed and Transferred      963,900

Total                                           1,075,700

Part 2. Prepare the journal entry dated October 31 to transfer the cost of the partially completed units to Assembly

Assembly Department (debit) $ 963,900

Cutting Department (credit) $ 963,900

Explanation:

Step 1 Find the Total Cost In Assembly Department for Each Input Component

Raw Materials = 18000+121600=$139600

Conversion Costs = 69300+866800=$936100

Step 2 Find Total Equivalent Units for Each Input Component

Raw Materials = 21500 (closing work in progress- 100% ) + 153000( transferred- 100%) = 174500

Conversion = 17200 (closing work in progress - 80%) + 153000 (transferred - 100%) = 170200

Step 3 Calculate Cost per Equivalent Unit for Each Input Component

Raw Materials =  $139600/174500 = $0.80

Conversion Cost = $936100/170200 = $5.50

Total Equivalent Cost= $6.30

Step 4 Calculate Cost of Output Components

(1) Completed and Transferred = $6.30×153000

                                                  = $963,900

<em>(2) Closing Work In Progress:</em>

Raw Materials = $0.80×21500       = 17,200

Conversion Cost = $5.50×17500   =94,600

Total                                                 =111,800

Why is active voice generally preferable for business messages?
hram777 [196]
<span>Active voice gives the idea that actions are being undertaken and that things will be able to be completed. The passive voice gives the appearance that the tasks are not of high importance and that they'll only be completed if the time allows or if the person is interested in completing them. Active voice allows for the belief that the task is important and the result will be high-priority to the listener(s).</span>

"compare intel's actual and pro forma (as if) ratios of intangible assets to long-lived tangible assets in 2012. use r&amp;d cap
kobusy [5.1K]

Since Intel has a history of effectively transforming R&D investment into income, the pro-forma version of the ration seems to be of more significant. A company starting, for instance, would be unalike: its track record would be much poorer and probabilities are that the criteria set in place would not be as rough as Intel’s. Therefore, it appears that the significance hinge on the kind of business: if future benefit is more of a doubt, then R&D should be expensed. The contradictory is true if benefit is almost certain. Intel also has the advantage of being very vibrant with its R&D objectives and having exact, measurable standards. They note obviously what the funds are apportioned to and what the end outcomes should be of the growth.

ou own a portfolio that has $2,700 invested in Stock A and $3,800 invested in Stock B. Assume the expected returns on these stoc
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

the  expected return on the portfolio is 15.50%

Explanation:

The computation of the expected return on the portfolio is shown below:

Total investment is

= $2,700 + $3,800

= $6,500

Now  

Expected return of portfolio is

= ($2,700 ÷ $6,500) × 12 + ($3,800 ÷ $6,500) × 18

= 4.98% + 10.52%

= 15.50%

Hence, the  expected return on the portfolio is 15.50%

1. Consider an economy with a population of 100,000 households. 60 percent of households reportan annual income of $25,000 ("low
Leona [35]

Answer:

The total income earned by households in this economy is:

$4,700,000,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Household population = 100,000

Low earners = 60% with annual income of $25,000 each

Mid earners = 30% with annual income of $70,000 each

High earners = 10% with annual income of $110,000 each

60% of the population = 60,000 (100,000 * 60%) households

30% of the population = 30,000 (100,000 * 30%)  households

10% of the population = 10,000 (100,000 * 10%)  households

Total income earned by the households:

Low earners = 60,000 * $25,000 =      $1,500,000,000

Mid earners = 30,000 * $70,000 =         2,100,000,000

High earners = 10,000 * $110,000 =        1,100,000,000

Total income earned in the economy $4,700,000,000
