AccuBlade Castings Inc. casts blades for turbine engines. Within the Casting Department, alloy is first melted in a crucible, th

en poured into molds to produce the castings. On May 1, there were 230 pounds of alloy in process, which were 60% complete as to conversion. The Work in Process balance for these 230 pounds was $32,844, determined as follows:
Direct materials (230 x $132)$30,360
Conversion (230 x 60% x $18)2,484 $32,844
During May, the Casting Department was charged $350,000 for 2,500 pounds of alloy and $19,840 for direct labor. Factory overhead is applied to the department at a rate of 150% of direct labor. The department transferred out 2,530 pounds of finished castings to the Machining Department. The May 31 inventory in process was 44% complete as to conversion.
a. Prepare the following May journal entries for the Casting Department:
1. The materials charged to production
2. The conversion costs charged to production
3. The completed production transferred to the Machining Department
b. Determine the Work in Process—Casting Department May 31 balance.

You know the _____ method of budgeting is being employed after hearing an experienced marketing department manager respond to a
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Arbitrary allocation.

Explanation:

Arbitrary allocation is a method where costs budgeted are not based on any precise measurement,hence accurate costs could not be arrived at.

This approach to budgeting breeds inefficiencies as the accurate budgeting is expected to lead to accurate costing of products as well as pricing.

All in all,the true profitability of a business cannot be ascertained.

Finally,the organization adopting this type of approach needs to change to other accurate methods of budgeting such incremental or rolling budgeting.

the equity of the corporation, a measure of the value of its assets less debt, is estimated to be 200000. linda forgoes a return
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Economic profit  = $5000

Explanation:

given data

value of assets less debt = 200000.

return = 10% per year

total revenue this year =  295000

solution

we consider here that

payroll wage and salaries  = $100000

interest paid = 40000

depreciation on equipment = 80000

supplies utility = 50000

so here we get first Total cost  that is

Total cost = payroll + interest paid + depreciation + supplies   .................1

put here value and we get

Total cost = 100000 + 40000 + 80000 + 50000  

Total cost = $270000

Thus,

Accounting profit = Total revenue - total cost    ..............2

Accounting profit  = 295000 – 270000

Accounting profit  = $25000

and we know Opportunity cost is  

Opportunity cost = 10% of $200000

Opportunity cost = 10% × 200000

Opportunity cost  = $20000

so here Economic profit  will be

Economic profit = accounting profit - opportunity cost   ..............3

Economic profit  = 25000 - 20000

Economic profit  = $5000
