Martin Company manufactures a powerful cleaning solvent. The main ingredient in the solvent is a raw material called Echol. Info

rmation concerning the purchase and use of Echol follows:
Purchase of Echol Echol is purchased in 15-gallon containers at a cost of $115 per container. A discount of 2% is offered by the supplier for payment within 10 days, and Martin Company takes all discounts. Shipping costs, which Martin Company must pay, amount to $130 for an average shipment of 100 15-gallon containers of Echol.

Use of Echol The bill of materials calls for 7.6 quarts of Echol per bottle of cleaning solvent. (Each gallon contains four quarts.) About 5% of all Echol used is lost through spillage or evaporation. In addition, statistical analysis has shown that every 41st bottle is rejected at final inspection because of contamination.

Required:
a. Compute the standard purchase price for one quart of Echol.
b. Compute the standard quantity of Echol (in quarts) per salable bottle of cleaning solvent.
c. Using the data from (1) and (2) above, prepare a standard cost card showing the standard cost of Echol per bottle of cleaning solvent.

Answer: a. $1.90

b. 8.2 quarts

c. $15.58

Explanation:

a. Compute the standard purchase price for one quart of Echol.

Cost per 15 gallon container = $115

Less: Cash discount= 2% × $115 = $2.30

Net cost = $115 - $2.30 = $112.70

Add: Shipping cost = $139/100 = $1.30

Total cost = $112.70 + $1.30 = $114

Number of quarts per container = (15 × 4) = 60

Standard cost per quart = $114/60 = $1.90

b. Compute the standard quantity of Echol (in quarts) per salable bottle of cleaning solvent.

Content per bill of materials = 7.6 quart

Add: Allowance for evaporation and spillage = 8.0 - 7.6 = 0.4 quart

Add: Allowance for rejected unit = 8.0/40 = 0.2 quarts

Standard quantity of Echol per salable bottle of cleaning solvent = 7.6 + 0.4 + 0.2 = 8.2 quarts

c. Using the data from (1) and (2) above, prepare a standard cost card showing the standard cost of Echol per bottle of cleaning solvent.

This will be:

= 8.2 quart × $1.90 per quart

= $15.58

Allisa [31]

Answer:

b. $103,345

Explanation:

Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

Owner's Equity (Year 1) = $908,100 - $267,845

                                       = $640,255

Owner's Equity (Year 2) = $980,279 - $233,892

                                        = $746,387

increase in Owner's Equity = Owner's Equity (Year 2) - Owner's Equity (Year 1)  

                                             = $746,387 - $640,255

                                             = $106,132

Net income during Year 2 = Increase in Owner's Equity - Additional investment + Withdrawals

                                            = $106,132 - $28,658 + $25,871

                                            = $103,345

Therefore, the amount of net income during Year 2 is $103.345.

The Homestead Strike of the Iron and Steel workers in Homestead, PA is representative of the struggle in the late 1800's between
denpristay [2]

Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

The Homestead strike was a combination of both a company lockout (the company didn't allow workers to work) and a union strike (where the workers did't want to work). It was a power struggle between one of the darkest and sinister monopolists of the 19th century, Carnegie Steel (led by Andrew Carnegie) and the most powerful workers' union in America, the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers.

In 1889 the union won, but Carnegie wanted revenge, so in 1892, he demanded harsher conditions after the initial contract was over and when the union said no, a lockout started. It was bloody and messy, with 16 dead. Carnegie's private army of 300 guards faced 10,000 strikers and things turned ugly soon. The Pinkertons (Carnegie's troops) were "defeated" but too many lives were lost.

Since Carnegie's little was defeated, he asked a bigger fish to help him and the governor sent 8,000 soldiers to arrest any union striker that opposed Carnegie. Finally, Carnegie's millions and corrupt politicians won, and the workers were forced to accept lower wages and more working hours. Those who rejected the forced deal were sent to prison.

enyata [817]

Answer:

$4,842,800.00

Explanation:

Units-of-production depreciation method calculates the amount to be deprecation depending on the asset usage for that period.

In this case, the total hours the asset is expected to work.

Cost of machine $ 40,000,000.00

Salvage value : $ 47,000.00

total hours machine should work: 33,000.00

Depreciable amount: = Cost price- salvage value

    =$40,000,000.00-$47,000.00

    =$39,953,000.00

Depreciation per hour= $39,953,000.00/33000

    =1,210.6969

    =1,210.70

Depreciation for 2018     =1210.7x4000

    =$4,842,800.00
