Chae Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. This month, the beginning inventory in the firs

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

If costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were:

Cost Percent Complete

Materials costs $7,900 60%

Conversion costs $6,900 30%

A total of 8,100 units were started and 7,600 units were transferred to the second processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first processing department during the month:

Materials costs $137,900

Conversion costs $323,900

The ending inventory was 80% complete with respect to materials and 75% complete with respect to conversion costs.

Note: Your answers may differ from those offered below due to rounding error. In all cases, select the answer that is the closest to the answer you computed. To reduce rounding error, carry out all computations to at least three decimal places.

The cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department is closest to $17.03

Explanation:

Weighted-average method is used to make an inventory valuation, taking average values for both the merchandise in stock and for the costs of merchandise sold.

But in this case, since you have unfinished units, you must take the equivalent to calculate the unit cost.

Materials:

Units completed: 7,600

Units in process: 1,200 * 80% = 960

Equivalent production units: 7,600 +, 960 = 8560

Cost at start: 7,900

Added costs in the period: 137,900

Total cost: 7900 + 137,900 = 145,800

So: 145,800 / 8,560 = 17.03 is the equivalent unit cost per product

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard quantity 7.5 liters per unit Standard price $ 2.00 per liter

Actual production was 3,400 units.

The company used 26,200 liters of direct material.

<u>To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (7.5*3,400 - 26,200)*2

Direct material quantity variance= (25,500 - 26,200)*2

Direct material quantity variance= $1,400 unfavorable

denis-greek [22]

Answer: $3,500

Explanation:

The American Opportunity Tax Credit is a credit offered by the IRS for educational expenses paid on qualified students in their first 4 years of tertiary education.

The credit offered stands at a 100% of the first $2,000 paid per student. Afterwards this drops to 25% for the next $2,000.

To be able to claim the full credit however, some income conditions must be met. The most relevant to this question is that your Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) should be $80,000 or less if filing singularly or $160,000 or less if jointly signing as a married couple.

That means that Kyle and Alyssa qualified for 100% of this credit.

They get to claim $1,000 on Jane.

For Jill they get to claim the first $2,000 and then 25% of the next $2,000,

= 25% * 2,000

= $500

= 500 + 2,000

= $2,500

They get to claim $2,500 on Jill.

Total of $3,500 for both Jane and Jill.

atroni [7]

Answer:

Revenue 2021 = $3,000,000

Revenue 2022 = $0

Explanation:

Given that,

Sold a parcel of land to a construction company = $3,000,000

book value of the land on Apache’s books = $1,200,000

In this case, revenue is identified at a point when the parcel of land is transferred to the construction company.

Therefore, full revenue from the sale of land should be recognized in the year 2021 because the transfer of land occured in 2021 and there will be no revenue reflected in the year 2022.

Revenue 2021 = $3,000,000

Revenue 2022 = $0
