Answer:

Hand Sanitizer Ltd

Relevant Accounts for the year ended 31st March 2019:

1. Plant Account:

Debit Balance on 1st April 2018 = GH₵375,000

Credit: Disposal of Plants on 31st December 2018   = GH₵40,500 (GH₵22,500 and GH₵18,000)

Debit: New Plants on 31st December 2018 = GH₵52,500

Debit Balance on 31st March 2019 = GH₵387,000

2. Accumulated Depreciation - Plant:

Credit Balance on 1st April 2018 = GH₵157,500

Debit: Disposal of Plants on 31st December, 2018 = GH₵27,427.10

Credit: Depreciation Expense ( 100,350 + 3,937.50) = GH₵104,287.50

Credit Balance on 31st March 2019 = GH₵234,360.40

3. Depreciation Expense:

Debit: Accumulated Depreciation for old plant GH₵100,350

Debit: Accumulated Depreciation for new plants GH₵3,937.50

Total = GH₵104,287.50

4. Disposal of Plants Account:

Debit: Plants = GH₵40,500

Credit: Accumulated Depreciation = GH₵27,427.10

Credit: Cash = GH₵16,500 (12,000 + 4,500)

Debit: Gain from Sale = GH₵3,427.10

Balance = GH₵0

Explanation:

a) Accumulated Depreciation for the disposed plants on reduced balance:

October 2015 to March 2016 for 6 months (30% of GH₵40,500 for 6 months) = GH₵6,075

March 2017 for 12 months = GH₵10,327.50

March 2018 for 12 months = GH₵7,229.25

December 2018 for 9 months = GH₵3,795.35

Total = GH₵27,427.10

b) Reduced Balance for Disposed Plants

October 2015 Cost = GH₵40,500

March 2016 less Depreciation = GH₵6,075

Reduced Balance = GH₵34,425

March 2017 less Depreciation = GH₵10,327.50

Reduced Balance = GH₵24,097.50

March 2018 less Depreciation = GH₵7,229.25

Reduced Balance = GH₵16,868.25

December 2018  less Depreciation = GH₵3,795.35

Reduced Balance = GH₵13,072.90

The depreciation charge for 2016 was for 6 months while the 2018 charge was for 9 months.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $20,000  Favorable (F).

Explanation:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads  - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                                              = $305,000 -  $300,000

                                                              = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Fixed Overheads at Actual Production  - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

                                                              = ($5.00 × 64,000) - $300,000

                                                              = $320,000 - $300,000

                                                              = $20,000  Favorable (F)

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Given: Total shift time = 8 hours = 8 * 60 = 480 minutes

time required for production of one saw = 6 minutes

Demand for Bow saw = Demand for frame saw = Demand for dovetail saw = 1/2 * Demand of Tenon saw

a) Mixed model schedule:

Mixed model schedule

Product no. per batch

Bow Saw 1

Frame Saw 1

Dovetail Saw 1

Tenon Saw 2

Total 5

Therefore 2 Tenon Saw, and each bow, frame, and dovetail saws will be produced before the cycle is repeated.

b) 2 Tenon Saw, 1 bow, 1 frame, and 1 dovetail saws will be produced under production sequence for one unit production.

The length of cycle will be 5*6=30 minutes i.e. the cycle will repeat once in 30 minutes for 8 hours means totally it will repeat 16 times during one shift.

c) Number of saws Swenson produce in one shift = Number of Bow saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Frame saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Dovetail saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Tenon saw Swenson produce in one shift

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Receivables turnover ratio = 5

Explanation:

Receivables turnover ratio = Net Credit Sales / Average accounts receivable

Receivables turnover ratio = $100,000/$20,000

Receivables turnover ratio = 5

Average accounts receivable = (Beginning Account Receivable + Ending Account Receivable) /2

Average accounts receivable = ($15,000+$25,00)/2

Average accounts receivable = $40,000/2

Average accounts receivable = $20,000
