g Product #1 Product #2 Historical cost $26 $51 Replacement cost 16 28 Estimated cost to dispose 23 25 Estimated selling price 5
Darya [45]

Answer:Product 1 will be valued at $16,  Product 2 will be valued at $29

Explanation:

Lower of Cost or Market

Lower of Cost or Market is a Method for Valuing inventory which stipulates  that inventory must be valued at the lower of cost or market price. Market price is defined as the replacement cost of inventory. There is however a Criteria to be followed when using Replacement costs

The replacement cost should not exceed or should not be greater than the Net Realizable Value, Net Realizable Value is the net amount we would receive from the sale of inventory after settling cost of selling inventory. If Replacement Cost is greater than Net relizable value, Net Realizable Value will be compared to historical cost in determining the value of inventory

The Replacement Cost Should also not be less than Net relizable value minus Ordinary profit, if it is less , Net relizable value minus Ordinary profit will be compare to historical costs in determining the value of inventory.

Replacement costs will be used if they are lower than Net realizable value and Higher than Net relizable value minus Ordinary profit

Product 1

Historical cost = $26

Net Realizable Value = $52 - 23 = $29

Net realizable Value minus Ordinary Profit = $29 - ( 52 -26) = $3

Replacement Cost $16

Replacement costs ($16) are less than Net realizable value ($29) But they are higher than Net realizable value minus Ordinary Profit ($3),. Product 1 will be valued at the lower of cost $26 or $16

Product 1 will be valued at $16

Product 2

Historical cost = $51

Net Realizable Value = $80 - 25 = $55

Net realizable Value minus Ordinary Profit = $29 - ( $80 -51) = $29

Replacement Cost $28

Replacement costs ($28) are less than Net realizable value ($55). They are also lower than Net realizable value minus Ordinary Profit ($29). Product 2 will be valued at the lower of cost $51 or $29

Product 2 will be valued at $29

jekas [21]

Answer:

Dr. Work in process                  $49,500

Dr. Material Quantity Variance $4,500

Cr. Raw material Inventory        $49,500

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the Material usage variance

Standard Material = 5,500 cakes x 3 pounds = 16,500 pounds

Standard cost of Standard Material = 16,500 pounds x $3 = $49,500

Actual usage at standard cost = 16,650 pounds x $3 = $49,950

Material usage Variance = $49,950 - $49,500 = $450 unfavorable

When the actual cost incurred is more than the standard cost the variance is unfavorable.

Bank Reconciliation
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Cash balance according to the bank $23,557.98

+ deposits in transit $12,125.25

- outstanding check N⁰ 124 ($62)

- outstanding check N⁰ 125 ($42)

- outstanding check N⁰ 129 ($1,250)

adjusted bank balance = $34,329.23

Cash account balance $51,596.88

+ note collected by bank $15,250.75

- NSF check ($23,475.40)

- Bank fees ($250)

- Error in recording check N⁰ 125 ($9,000)

adjusted cash account balance = $34,122.23

two errors were detected:

  1. outstanding check N⁰ 125 correct amount is ($24)
  2. bank fees are $25

so the readjusted balances are:

adjusted bank balance = $34,329.23 + ($42 - $24) = $34,347.23

adjusted cash account balance = $34,122.23 + ($250 - $25) = $34,347.23

now both accounts are equal.
