A company could improve its acid-test ratio by selling some equipment it no longer needs for cash. a. True b. Flase
kari74 [83]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

acid test ratio can be calculate by ( Current assets – Inventory ) / Current liabilities. Ideally, the acid test ratio should be 1:1 or higher, however this varies widely by industry. In general, the higher the ratio, the greater the company's liquidity. by selling up equipment in exchange of cash, the will assist the company to be able to handle its current liability with the cash injection into the entity.

Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, th
RSB [31]

Answer:

(1) Straight-line.

Year 1 depreciation expense = $6,500

Year 2 depreciation expense = $6,500

(2) Double-declining-balance.

Year 1 depreciation expense = $16,000

Year 2 depreciation expense = $8,000

(3) Activity-based.

Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,000

Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,600

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,000. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 130,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 35,000 miles in year 1 and 38,000 miles in year 2.

Required:

Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods.

(1) Straight-line.

(2) Double-declining-balance.

(3) Activity-based.

The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:

(1) Straight-line.

Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000

Annual depreciation rate = 1 / Number of useful years = 1 / 4 = 0.25, or 25%

Year 1 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500

Year 2 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500

(2) Double-declining-balance.

Note: The salvage value is taken care of in the computation of the depreciation expense for the last useful year under the double-declining-balance method.

Therefore, we have:

Cost of the delivery van = $32,000

Annual depreciation rate = Straight line annual depreciation rate * 2 = 25% * 2 = 50%

Year 1 depreciation expense = Cost of the delivery van * Annual depreciation rate = $32,000 * 50% = $16,000

Book value at the end of year 1 = Cost of the delivery van - Year 1 depreciation expense = $36,000 - $16,000 = $16,000

Year 2 depreciation expense = Book value at the end of year 1 * Annual depreciation rate = $16,000 * 50% = $8,000

(3) Activity-based.

Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000

Depreciation rate = Actual miles driven each year / Expected driven miles for four years ……….. (1)

Depreciation expense for each year = Depreciable amount * Depreciation rate …………… (2)

Using equations (2), we have:

Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (35,000 / 130,000) = $7,000

Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (38,000 / 130,000) = $7,600

Ratling [72]

Answer:

a) The materials price variance 19026.33 unfav

b) Material Quantity Variance= $ 267 Unfav

c) Direct Labor Rate variance= $ 6127 Unfav

d) Direct labor Efficiency variance= 7710 Fav

e) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= 13099 fav

f) Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= 3256.25  unfav

Explanation:

<em>First We find the missing figures such as standard quantity ,hours allowed , actual price, rate. Then we list the formulae to use. After that we put in the values of the amounts in the formulae to get the results. Unfavorable variances are those in which the actual quantities are greater than the standard quantities or input .</em>

Kropf Inc.

Given Standards

Direct materials 9.30 liters $ 8.90 per liter

<em>Standard Quantity allowed = 9.3 * 11500= 106950 Litres </em>

Direct labor 0.70 hours $ 25.70 per hour

Variable manufacturing overhead 0.70 hours $ 7.80 per hour

<em>Standard Hours Allowed </em>= $ 0.7 *11500= 8050

Actual Results Given

Actual output 11,500 units

Raw materials purchased 107,900 liters

Actual cost of raw materials purchased $ 979,500

<em>Actual Price</em><em>=</em> Cost/ Purchases=  $ 979,500/107,900 = $9.08

Raw materials used in production 106,980 liters

Actual direct labor-hours 7,750 hours

Actual direct labor cost $ 205,302

<em>Actual Rate</em><em>=</em>$ 205,302 / 7,750 = $ 26.49

Actual variable overhead cost $ 55,414

Actual Overhead Rate= $ 55,414/7,750 = $ 7.15

<u>Formulae to use </u>

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

<u>Working</u>

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

The materials price variance = ( $9.08*106,980 )- ($ 8.90 *106,980)

The materials price variance = (971148.38)- (952122)=19026.33 unfav

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

Material Quantity Variance=($ 8.90 *106,980)-($ 8.90 *106,950)= $ 267 Unfav

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

Direct Labor Rate variance= ( 7,750*$ 26.49)- (7,750*$ 25.70)= $ 6127 Unfav

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

Direct labor Efficiency variance=(7,750*$ 25.70)-(8050*$ 25.70)= 7710 Fav

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-(7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414- 42315= 13099 fav

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)- (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.15)=42315- 38788.15= 3256.25  unfav

Jackson Company has two service departments (S1 and S2) and two producing departments (A and B). Department S1 serves Department
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The total amount of cost that will be allocated from S2 to Department A is $32,200.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Cost allocated from Department S1 to Department S2 = Direct department costs of Department S1 * Percentage of service to Department S2 = $200,000 * 15% = $30,000

Total Direct department costs for S2 = Direct department costs for S2 + Cost allocated from Department S1 to Department S2 = $16,000 + $30,000 = $46,000

Cost allocated from Department S2 to Department SA = Total direct department costs for S2 * Percentage of service to Department A = $46,000 * 70% = $32,200

Therefore, the total amount of cost that will be allocated from S2 to Department A is $32,200.
