<u>Full question:</u>
On June 15, Harper purchased equipment for $100,000 from Imperial Corp. for use in its manufacturing process. Harper paid for the equipment with funds borrowed from Eastern Bank. Harper gave Eastern a security agreement and financing statement covering Harper’s existing and after-acquired equipment. On June 21, Harper was petitioned involuntarily into bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. A bankruptcy trustee was appointed. On June 23, Eastern filed the financing statement. Which of the parties will have a superior security interest in the equipment?
A. The trustee in bankruptcy, because the filing of the financing statement after the commencement of the bankruptcy case would be deemed a preferential transfer.
B. The trustee in bankruptcy, because the trustee became a lien creditor before Eastern perfected its security interest.
C. Eastern, because it had a perfected purchase money security interest without having to file a financing statement.
D. Eastern, because it perfected its security interest within the permissible time limits.
<u>Answer:</u>
Eastern parties will have a superior security interest in the equipment because it perfected its security interest within the permissible time limits.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Eastern has a higher security interest because Eastern amended its security interest inside the allowable time deadlines. A perfected security interest in any security interest in an asset that cannot be demanded by any other party.
Below the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.), to perfect a security interest, a lender has 10 days from the date of the sale of material to perfect the security interest by filing a financing statement. Possessing registered in the 10-day limit, Eastern has a strong perfected security interest in the material and after-acquired things even though the bankruptcy was recorded two days ahead.

Answer:
1. 780,000 pints
2. $1
3. $780,000
Explanation:
1. The computation of the equivalent units of production is shown below:
= Units completed and transferred out + completed units in ending inventory × completion percentage
= 700,000 pints + 200,000 pints × 40%
= 780,000 pints
2. The computation of the unit cost for January month is shown below:
= (Beginning Work in process + Costs added during January) ÷ equivalent units
= ($156,000 + $624,000) ÷ (780,000 pints)
= $1
3. The computation of the assigned units is shown below:
= Units completed and transferred out × unit cost + completed units in ending inventory × completion percentage × unit cost
= 700,000 pints × $1 + 200,000 pints × 40% ×$1
= $780,000
