Answer:
Dr. Trading securities $4,800
Cr. Unrealized gain on trading securities $4,800
Explanation:
Trading securities are recorded reported on the fair market value. The gain or loss arise from the increase or decrease in the value of trading securities. There is a gain if the price of trading security increases and loss when the price of the trading security decreases. Unrealized gains are reported in the separate section of stockholders equity.
Gain on Trading securities = Fair value of security portfolio - Cost of security portfolio = $46,300 - $41,500 = $4,800
Answer:
a) Taylor Industries can successfully cut back its labor cost in inventory stockrooms by counting only high-value items. These items are determined by reference to their Annual Usage values. The items' annual usage values should be used as the activity cost pool for accumulating and allocating labor cost in inventory stockrooms. Taylor Industries can establish a benchmark or cutoff point so that only the items meeting this benchmark are counted. For example, the items with annual usage value above $5,000 should be included in the items to be counted. This strategy will reduce the number of items to be counted and therefore the labor cost.
b) Since item 15 is critical to Taylor Industries' continued operations, it should be classified as a direct materials cost and not an overhead cost.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
a random sample of 20 of Taylor's items:
ITEM NUMBER ANNUAL USAGE ITEM NUMBER ANNUAL USAGE
1 $ 1,500 11 $ 13,000
2 12,000 12 600
3 2,200 13 42,000
4 50,000 14 9,900
5 9,600 15 1,200
6 750 16 10,200
7 2,000 17 4,000
8 11,000 18 61,000
9 800 19 3,500
10 15,000 20 2,900
Average annual usage value = $12,657.50
Answer:
$1.67 Million
Explanation:
Current asset = 15 Million
Current liabiltiy = 15 Million/3
= 5 Million
Let the inventory X can be purchased with short term debt without violation
per current ratio requirement
(15 + x)/5+x = 2.5
15 + x = 12.5 + 2.5x
2.5 = 1.5x
x = $1.67 Million
Therefore, $1.67 Million inventory can Baker purchase without violating its debt agreement if their total current assets equal $15 million
Answer:
C. Decrease by $7,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what company's overall operating income would Decrease by
Using this formula
Overall operating income =(Product X units*Contribution margin )-Fixed overhead eliminated
Let plug in the formula
Overall operating income=(5,000 units*$5)-$18,000
Overall operating income=$25,000-$18,000
Overall operating income=$7,000 Decrease
Therefore As a result of discontinuing Product X, the company's overall operating income would:Decrease by $7,000
Answer:
a. Beck Inc. = 5.00 and Bryant Inc. = 2.50
b. Beck Inc. = $100,000 and 100% : Bryant Inc. = $150,000 and 50 %
c. True.
Explanation:
Degree of Operating Leverage shows, the times Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) would change as a result of a change in Sales contribution.
Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution ÷ EBIT
Thus,
Beck Inc = $500,000 ÷ $100,000
= 5.00
Bryant Inc. = $750,000 ÷ $300,000
= 2.50
<em>If Sales increased by 20% the effects on Incomes would be :</em>
Beck Inc = 20% × 5.00
= 100%
= $100,000 × 100%
= $100,000
Bryant Inc.= 20% × 2.50
= 50 %
= $300,000 × 50 %
= $150,000
