Answer:

Maui Resort Inc.

Journal Entry:

December 31, 2020:

Debit Loss from Unrealizable DTA $31,000

Credit Allowance for Unrealizable DTA $31,000

To record the loss from unrealizable DTA and increase the balance to $35,000 (credit).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

December 31, 2020 Deferred Tax Asset (DTA) = $50,000

Estimate of realizable DTA = 30% of $50,000 = $15,000

Allowance for unrealizable DTA for 2020 = 70% of $50,000 = $35,000

Loss from unrealizable DTA = $31,000 ($35,000 - $5,000)

b) Like the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, the DTA Valuation Allowance is a contra-account to the Deferred Tax asset Account.  It shows the amount of the deferred tax asset with a more than 50% probability of being lost or unutilized in the future as a result of the non-availability of sufficient future taxable income.

A cost is $11,000 at 1,000 units, $12,000 at 2,000 units, and $13,000 at 3,000 units. Using the high-low method, how much is the
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Fixed costs= $10,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Highest activity cost= $13,000

Highest activity= 3,000 units

Lowest activity cost= $11,000

Lowest activity= 1,000 units

<u>To calculate the unitary variable cost and total fixed cost, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (13,000 - 11,000) / (3,000 - 1,000)

Variable cost per unit= $1

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 13,000 - (1*3,000)

Fixed costs= $10,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 11,000 - (1*1,000)

Fixed costs= $10,000

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Economic profits refers to the profits which comes out after deducting the implicit costs and explicit costs from the total revenue.

Whereas the accounting profits takes into the effect of explicit costs only.

Implicit cost refers to the loss of money income by choosing some other alternative. It is also known as the opportunity cost.

Explicit costs refers to the costs that are incurred for operating or running a business.  

Accounting profit = Total revenue - Explicit costs

Economic profit = Total revenue - Explicit costs - Implicit costs

Therefore, if the implicit costs are greater than zero then the economic profits is less than the accounting profits.
