Auditory Company, which applies overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Fixed overhead variance= $18,000 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Actual units produced: 12,000

Actual fixed overhead incurred: $750,000

Standard fixed overhead rate: $16 per hour

Budgeted fixed overhead: $740,000

Planned level of machine-hour activity: 45,000

Auditory estimates four hours to manufacture a completed unit.

First, we need to calculate the standard fixed costs for the period:

Allocated overhead= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated overhead= 16* (12,000*4)= $768,000

Actual overhead= 750,000

Fixed overhead variance= actual - allocated

Fixed overhead variance= 750,000 - 768,000= $18,000 favorable

sweet [91]

Answer:

A) The number of hours per worker during December= 211,76 hours

B) The number of hours per worker during December=141,18 hours

Explanation:

In December, General Motors produced 7,200 customized vans at its plant in Detroit.

The labor productivity at this plant is known to have been 0.10 vans per labor hour during that month

340 laborers were employed at the plant that month.

A)

Considering that each worker produces 0,10 van an hour.

340workers*0,10=34vans per hour

The number of hours per worker during December= 7200vans/34vans= 211,76 hours

B) Labor productivity increases to 0,15 vans per hour per worker.

340workers*0,15= 51vans/hour

The number of hours per worker during December= 7200vans/51= 141,18 hours

The Oakland Mills Company has disclosed the following financial information in its annual reports for the period ending March 31
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The cash flows to investors from operating activity is $402,126.25

Explanation:

For computing the cash flow from operating activity, first, we have to compute the net income which is shown below:

= Sales - cost of goods sold - depreciation expense - interest expense - income tax expense

where,

The income tax expense equals to

= (Sales - cost of goods sold - depreciation expense - interest expense) × income tax rate  

= $1,430,000 - $816,000 - $175,000 - $89,575) × 35%

= $122,298.75

The other items values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $1,430,000 - $816,000 - $175,000 - $89,575 - $122,298.75

= $227,126.25

Now the cash flow from operating activity equals to

= Net income + depreciation expense

= $227,126.25 + $175,000

= $402,126.25

On September 30, 2021, Bricker Enterprises purchased a machine for $203,000. The estimated service life is 10 years with a $19,0
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Bricker Enterprises

Depreciation for 2021, using the double-declining-balance method, would be:

= $9,200.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

September 30, 2021:

Cost of purchased machine = $203,000

Estimated residual value =           19,000

Depreciable amount =             $184,000

Estimated service life = 10 years

Depreciation rate using the double-declining-balance method = 20% (100/10 * 2)

Depreciation expense for the first year based on the double-declining-balance method:

= $36,800 ($184,000 * 20%)

Prorated depreciation expense for 2021 = $9,200 (($184,000 * 20%) * 3/12))
