Answer:
1. groups costs into meaningful buckets that are then distributed based on the activity or product they support.
Explanation:
Activity based costing basically categorizes various overheads into different activities, that leads to charge of overheads based on different activities.
In this manner overheads that shall be charged on some standard products based on the activities involved is charged accordingly, and not based on standard overhead allocation rate.
Basically the overheads are divided into various activities and then distributed to each product based on the volume of activity in the manufacturing process of such activity.
Answer:
Net Income or Loss : a. 2019 = $53000 ; b. 2020 = $4000 loss ; c. 2021 = $43000
Explanation:
Assets - Liabilities = Capital (Closing/Opening)
458000 - 317000 = 141000 (2019 Closing Capital)
Profit = Closing Capital - Opening Capital + Drawings - Additional Capital
A. 2019 Opening Capital = 100000 (Given)
2019 Closing Capital = A - L = 458000 - 317000 = 141000
2019 Profit = CC - OC - D + AC = 141000 - 100000 + 12000 = 53000
B. 2020 opening capital = 2019 Closing Capital = 141000
2020 closing capital = A - L = 538000 - 367000 = 171000
2020 Profit = CC - OC + D - AC = 171000 - 141000 - 34000 = 4000 Loss
C. 2021 opening capital = 2020 closing capital = 171000
2021 closing capital = A - L = 668000 - 467000 = 201000
2021 Profit = CC - OC + D - AC = 201000 - 171000 + 25000 - 12000 = 43000
Answer:
<em>Run a recoverability test and then a fair value test.</em>
Explanation:
Business assets with a loss of value are subject to impairment tests to assess and identify the magnitude of the loss.
<em>Measuring the magnitude of the loss requires two steps:</em>
- Performing a recoverability check is to decide whether an impairment loss occurred by determining whether the future value of the undiscounted cash flows of the asset is less than the asset's book value. If the cash flow is less than the value of the book, the loss will be assessed.
- Measure the cost of damage by measuring the difference between the book value and the asset's market value.
Answer:
The firm's unleveraged beta is 1.0251
Explanation:
Hamada's equation is used to separate the financial risk of a levered firm from its business risk.
The Hamada equation:
Bu= Bl/(1 + (1 − T)(D/E))
Bl = 1.4
wd = 0.36
Tax rate = 35%
D/E = wd / (1 – wd) = 0.5625 = 56.25%
= 1.4/ (1+(1-0.35)(0.5625))
=1.4/ 1 + (0.65)(0.5625)
=1.4/1.36
= 1.0251
Answer:
b. False
Explanation:
LIFO stand for Last in First Out. This means LIFO inventory valuation is based on earlier goods purchased.
So, when costs are decreasing, they are affecting latter prices and this usually affect FIFO (First in First Out) not LIFO.
