Glassworks Inc. produces two types of glass shelving, rounded edge and squared edge, on the same production line. For the curren

t period, the company reports the following data.
Rounded Edge Squared Edge Total
Direct materials $ 9,500 $ 21,600 $ 31,100
Direct labor 6,200 11,800 18,000
Overhead (300% of direct labor cost) 18,600 35,400 54,000
Total cost $ 34,300 $ 68,800 $ 103,100
Quantity produced 10,500 ft. 14,000 ft.
Average cost per ft. (rounded) $ 3.27 $ 4.91
Glassworks's controller wishes to apply activity-based costing (ABC) to allocate the $54,000 of overhead costs incurred by the two product lines to see whether cost per foot would change markedly from that reported above. She has collected the following information.
Overhead Cost Category (Activity Cost Pool) Cost
Supervision $ 2,160
Depreciation of machinery 28,840
Assembly line preparation 23,000
Total overhead $ 54,000
She has also collected the following information about the cost drivers for each category (cost pool) and the amount of each driver used by the two product lines. (Round activity rate and cost per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
Usage
Overhead Cost Category (Activity Cost Pool) Driver Rounded Edge Squared Edge Total
Supervision Direct labor cost ($) $ 6,200 $ 11,800 $ 18,000
Depreciation of machinery Machine hours 400 hours 800 hours 1,200 hours
Assembly line preparation Setups (number) 32 times 93 times 125 times
Required:
Use this information to (1) assign these three overhead cost pools to each of the two products using ABC, (2) determine average cost per foot for each of the two products using ABC, and (3) compare the average cost per foot under ABC with the average cost per foot under the current method for each product. For part 3, explain why a difference between the two cost allocation methods exists.

Answer:

Overhead Cost Category (Activity Cost Pool)       Cost

Supervision                                                             $2,160

Depreciation of machinery                                  $28,840

Assembly line preparation                                  <u> $23,000</u>

Total overhead                                                     $54,000

Supervision

Direct labor cost ($) $6,200 $11,800 $18,000

Depreciation of machinery

Machine hours 400 hours 800 hours 1,200 hours

Assembly line preparation Setups (number)

32 times 93 times 125 times

1)

overhead costs assigned to Rounded Edge

supervision = $2,160 x ($6,200 / $18,000) = $744

depreciation = $28,840 x (400 / 1,200) = $9,613

assembly line preparation = $23,000 x (32/125) = $5,888

total overhead costs = $16,245

overhead costs assigned to Squared Edge

total overhead costs = $54,000 - $16,245 = $37,755

2)

total costs assigned to Rounded Edge

materials $9,500

direct labor $6,200

overhead $16,245

total $31,945

cost per foot = $31,945 / 10,500 = $3.0424 per foot

total costs assigned to Squared Edge

materials $21,600

direct labor $11,800

overhead $37,755

total $71,155

cost per foot = $71,155 / 14,000 = $5.0825 per foot

3)   The average cost per foot of Rounded Edge decreased because lower overhead costs were allocated to their production.  

The average cost per foot of Squared Edge increased because higher overhead costs were allocated to their production.

A homeowner desires to sell his or her home and signs an exclusive-listing agreement, requiring payment of a six percent commiss
dem82 [27]

Answer: B. must pay a commission of $24,000 to the listing agent.

Explanation:

An exclusive listing agreement is a contractual agreement whereby a listing broker acts as the agent and in this case, the seller will pay a commission to the listing broker.

Since the homeowner has already signed an exclusive-listing agreement, which requires payment of 6% commission to the real estate agent but later finds a couple who purchases it for $400,000. In this case, the homeowner must still funlfil the terms of the contact and pay the listing agent the percentage that was agreed as commission and this will be:

= 6% × $400000.

= $24000

Therefore, $24000 must be paid to the listing agent.

The 2018 income statement of Adrian Express reports sales of $20,510,000, cost of goods sold of $12,550,000, and net income of $
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

1. Gross profit ratio= Gross Profit/ Sales *100    

-Sales $ 20510,000      

-Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold  =20,510,000 - 12,550,000 = 7,960,000  

Gross Profit Ratio= 7,960,000 / 20,510,000 * 100

= 38.81%

2.Return on Assets= Net income after tax / Average Total assets  

Where Average Total assets= (9,800,000+8,160,000) / 2= 8,980,000

Where Net income after tax= 1,940,000

Return on Assets = 1,940,000 / 8,980,000 * 100 = 21.60%

3.Profit Margin= Net income/ Sales *100    

=1,940,000 /20,510,000 *100

= 9.46%    

4. Total Assets turnover= Sales / Average assets    

=20,510,000 / 8,980,000

=2.28 times  

5 Return on Equity: Net income after tax/ Average stockholder's equity  

Where Average Stockholder's equity: (2,050,000 +3,190,000 + 1990000 + 1766000) / 2 = $4498,000

Return on Equity: 1940000/4498,000 *100

= 43.13%

Related to the Economics in Practice on page​ 77: If a hurricane results in the supply of hotel rooms decreasing and the demand
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Increases; Ambiguous effect on equilibrium quantity

Explanation:

This situation states that the supply of hotel rooms decreases and the demand for hotel rooms increases due to the hurricane, so this change will shift both the supply curve and the demand curve in the hotel rooms market.

This will shift the supply curve leftwards and demand curve rightwards, therefore as a result, there is an increase in the equilibrium prices and the effect of this change on the equilibrium quantity is ambiguous because that will be dependent upon the magnitude of the shifts of demand and supply curve.

Raul wants to join the directors of World Trade but currently owns no shares in the company. He knows that no one else will help
erica [24]

Answer:

$294,412.8

Explanation:

In order to obtain a seat on the board of directors, Raul must hold more than 50 percent of the total number of outstanding shares if there are three open seats and straight voting occurs.

Total number of shares required = (46,000 ÷ 2) + 1

= 23000 + 1

= 23,001 shares

Market price of share = $ 12.80

Total amount = Total number of shares required × Market price of share

= 23,001 × $ 12.80

= $294,412.8

The amount Raul wants to invest on obtaining a seat on board of directors is $294,412.8
