Finerly Corporation sells cosmetics through a network of independent distributors. Finerly shipped cosmetics to its distributors

and is considering whether it should record $220,000 of revenue upon shipment of a new line of cosmetics. Finerly expects the distributors to be able to sell the cosmetics, but is uncertain because it has little experience with selling cosmetics of this type. Finerly is committed to accepting the cosmetics back from the distributors if the cosmetics are not sold. How much revenue should Finerly recognize upon delivery to its distributors

Answer:

The amount of revenue Finerly should recognize upon delivery to its distributors is $0.

Explanation:

From the question, the following two very important points can be observed:

1. Finerly expects the distributors to be able to sell the cosmetics, but is uncertain because it has little experience with selling cosmetics of this type.

2. Finerly is committed to accepting the cosmetics back from the distributors if the cosmetics are not sold.

Since there is an uncertainty that the the distributors will be able to sell the cosmetics and Finerly is committed to accepting them back from the distributors if they are not sold, these imply that the amount of sales revenue cannot be known or reasonably estimated until when the distributors actually sell the cosmetics.

Therefore, the amount of revenue Finerly should recognize upon delivery to its distributors is $0.

Requirement 1.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Balance Sheet of Jill Carlson Realty​ Company, as of January ​31, 2018

<h2><u>ASSETS</u></h2>

Current Assets

Cash                                                                          $57.2

Receivables                                                              $0.5

Non Current Assets

Investment Assets                                                     $79.4

Property, Plant and Equipment                                 $1.6

Other Assets                                                          <u>    $9.3    </u>

Total Assets                                                           <u>    $148    </u>

<h2><u>LIABILITIES</u></h2>

Current Liabilities                                                      $2.9

Non Current Liabilities                                          <u>   </u><u>$102.6</u>

Total Liabilities                                                       <u>   $105.5 </u>

<u>EQUITY</u>

Common Stock                                                           $39.2

Closing Retained Earnings (Step1)                         <u>    $3.3   </u>

Total Equity                                                             <u>     $42.5</u>

<u></u>

<u>Step 1: Find Closing Retained Earnings</u>

As we know that:

Closing Retained Earnings = Total Assets - Total Liabilities - Common Stock

Here

Total Assets is $148 million

Total liabilities is $105.5 million

Common Stock is $39.2 million

By putting these values in the above equation, we have:

Closing Retained Earnings = $148 million  -  $105.5 million  -  $39.2 million

Closing Retained Earnings = <u>$3.3 million</u>

se the following information to determine the break-even point in units (rounded to the nearest whole unit): Unit sales 60,000 U
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

30,154 units

Explanation:

In this question we use the formula of break-even point in unit sales which is shown below:

= (Fixed expenses) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)

where,  

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit

= $15 - $8.5

= $6.5

And, fixed cost is $196,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= ($196,000) ÷ ($6.5)

= 30,154 units
