Answer:
A) Raw materials used
B) Raw materials beginning inventory
C) Raw materials purchases
Explanation:
When we are calculating the cost of goods sold, we must calculate total direct materials used + total direct labor + overhead overhead costs applied.
To calculate how much direct (raw and intermediate) materials are used, we start with our beginning inventory of (raw and intermediate) materials + purchases of (raw and intermediate) materials - ending inventory of raw materials - indirect materials used.
Some industries only calculate raw materials used, but others might include intermediate components in the equation.
Answer:
B) $647.47
Explanation:
The initial closing date was set for May 1st, but due to a problem with the buyer, it was moved to May 10th but that date was accepted by the seller. This means that the buyer should be responsible for the property taxes starting May 10th.
Property taxes per day = $1,832 / 365 days = $5.02 per day
Susan is responsible for paying 31 days in January, 28 days in February, 31 days in March, 30 days in April, and 9 days in May = 129 days x $5.02 = $647.47
The buyer is responsible for $1,184.53 in property taxes.
Answer:
The correct word for the blank space is: expense recognition principle.
Explanation:
The expense recognition principle establishes when expenses and revenues must be recorded in the accounting books of a company. Under the accrual basis of accounting method, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses whenever consumed. While using the cash basis accounting method, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses when they are paid to suppliers not when invoices are sent.
In both cases, <em>expenses and revenues are recognized during the same period when they take place. That is the reason why the direct write-off method fails to fulfill the expense recognition principle because bad debt can be recognized as an uncollectible account not necessarily in the same period where the debt instrument was issued.</em>
