Economan has been infected by the free enterprise bug. He sets up a firm on extraterrestrial affairs. The rent of the building i

s $4,000, the cost of the two secretaries is $40,000, and the cost of electricity and gas comes to $5,000. There's a great demand for his information, and his total revenue amounts to $100,000. By working in the firm, though, Economan forfeits the $50,000 he could earn by working for the Friendly Space Agency and the $4,000 he could have earned as interest had he saved his funds instead of putting them in his business.

Units produced 54,000 units

Direct labor $47 per unit

Direct materials $40 per unit

Unitary fixed overhead= 135,000/54,000= $2.5 per unit

Total unitary cost= 47 + 40 + 29 + 2.5= $118.5

olganol [36]

Answer:

Assumption: 6% rate has been taken to be on per annum basis and the question has been solved accordingly.

Following would be the journal entries to record the transaction:

On date of transaction:

June 30 Notes Receivable A/C                                           Dr.$42,000

                        To Sales                                                                        $42,000

 (Being a note received against goods sold recorded)

                                                                 

Adjusting entry:

Dec 31    Interest Receivable                                                Dr. $ 1,260

                     To Interest Revenue A/C                                                $1260

(Being 6 months interest due recorded)

On due date of notes receivable

March 31   Cash A/C                                                            Dr. 43,890

                        To Notes Receivable A/C                                           $42000                

                        To Interest Revenue A/C                                                $1890

(Being payment for notes receivable received along with interest recorded)

2. If the adjusting entry for interest accrual is not recorded, the income for 2018 would be understated by $1260 and income for 2019 would be overstated by $1260.
