Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments:

musickatia [10]

Answer:

1.89 years and 2.91 years

Explanation:

The formula to compute the payback period is shown below:

= Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow

For first case

The initial investment is $260,000

And, the net cash flow is shown below:

= Depreciation + incremental after tax income

where,

Depreciation equals to

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($260,000 - $10,000) ÷ (4 years)

= ($20,000) ÷ (4 years)

= $62,500

And the incremental after tax income is $75,000

So, the net cash flow would equal to

= $62,500 + $75,000

= $137,500

So, the payback period would be

= $260,000 ÷ $137,500

= 1.89 years

For second case

The initial investment is $170,000

And, the net cash flow is shown below:

= Depreciation + incremental after tax income

where,

Depreciation equals to

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($170,000 - $14,000) ÷ (9 years)

= ($156,000) ÷ (9 years)

= $17,333

And the incremental after tax income is $41,000

So, the net cash flow would equal to

= $17,333 + $41,000

= $58,333

So, the payback period would be

= $170,000 ÷ $58,333

= 2.91 years

Answer:

a. see attachment

total equivalent units : Materials = 30,500 units and Conversion Costs = 16,860

cost per equivalent unit : Materials = $0.14 and Conversion Costs = $0.30

(a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods = $6,732

(b) units still in process at June 30 = $1,196

Journals

Work In Process :Direct Materials $4,305 (debit)

Raw Materials $4,305 (credit)

Being Raw Materials used in Production

Work In Process :Direct Labor $3,320 (debit)

Salaries Payable $3,320 (credit)

Being Labor used in Production

Work In Process ; Overheads $1,738 (debit)

Overheads $1,738 (credit)

Being Overheads Assigned to Production

Finished Goods $6,732 (debit)

Work In Process $6,732 (credit)

Being Units transferred to Finished Goods

Explanation:

Calculation of Equivalent units of Production in respect with Raw Materials and Conversion Costs

1. Materials

Ending Work In Process (5,200 × 100%) 5,200

Completed and Transferred Out (15,300 × 100%) 15,300

Equivalent units of Production in respect with Raw Materials 30,500

2. Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process (5,200 × 30%) 1,560

Completed and Transferred Out (15,300 × 100%) 15,300

Equivalent units of Production in respect with Conversion Cost 16,860

Calculation of Cost per Equivalent unit of production in respect with Raw Materials and Conversion Costs

Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent units

1. Materials

Unit Cost = $4,305 ÷ 30,500

= $0.14

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost = ($3,320 + $1,738) ÷ 16,860

= $0.30

3. Total unit cost

Total unit cost = Material Cost + Conversion Cost

= $0.14 + $0.30

= $0.44

Calculation of costs assigned to (a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods and (b) units still in process at June 30.

(a) units completed and transferred to Finished Goods

Total Cost = units completed and transferred out × total unit cost

= 15,300 × $0.44

= $6,732

(b) units still in process at June 30.

Total Cost = Materials Cost + Conversion Cost

= $0.14 × 5,200 + $0.30 × 1,560

= $1,196
