Use the following method to calculate the yearly depreciation allowances and book values for a firm that has purchased $150,000
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a. Straight Line Method Depreciation= $ 2400

b. MACRS

c. Sum-of-Years' Digits

Explanation:

a. Straight Line Method Depreciation=

Purchase Cost- Salvage Value/ No of useful life *depreciation rate

=$ 150,000- $30,000/10 * 20%

=120,000/10* 20%= 12000* 20/100=$ 2400

b. MACRS

Since it is a non-form 10-year property, the company can elect to use either the 150% or 200% declining balance method.

Depreciation in 1st Year = Cost × 1/Useful Life × A × Depreciation Convention

Depreciation in Subsequent Years =

(Cost − Depreciation in Previous Years) × 1/ Recovery Period × A

Where,

A is 100% or 150% or 200%.

Depreciation for the the first year $ 150,000/10 *200%= $30,000

Depreciation for the the 2nd year =$ 150,000-30,000/10 *200%= $24,000

Depreciation for the the third year =$ 150,000-30,000- 24000/10 *200%

=$ 19,200

Depreciation for the the 4th year $ 150,000-30,000-24000-19200/10 *200%=  Note A

Note A: MACRS declining balance changes to straight-line method when that method provides an equal or greater deduction. Deduction under 200% declining balance MACRS for 4th year  would be $ 153,600 ($150000 - $30,000 - $24000 - $19200  × 1/10 × 200%. This is greater than depreciation under straight line method .

c. Sum-of-Years' Digits Method Depreciation

Depreciation Amount = Acquisition Cost - Salvage Value = $ 120,000

Sum of useful life= 10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1= 55

Depreciation Factor = 10/55, 9/55, 8/55, 7/55 etc.

Depreciation for the 1st year= 10/55* 120,000= $ 21,818.2

Depreciation for the 2nd year= 9/55* 120,000= $ 19 636.4

Depreciation for the 3rd year= 8/55* 120,000=  $17,546

Depreciation for the 4th year= 7/55* 120,000=  $ 15,273

Depreciation for the 5th year= 6/55* 120,000= $ 13,091

Depreciation for the 6th year= 5/55* 120,000= $ 10,909.1

Depreciation for the 7th year= 4/55* 120,000= $ 8727.3

Depreciation for the 8th year= 3/55* 120,000=  $ 6545.5

Depreciation for the 9th year= 2/55* 120,000=  $4363.63

Depreciation for the 10th year= 1/55* 120,000= $ 2181.81

Gilson Corporation manufactures and sells a single product. The company uses units as the measure of activity in its budgets and
Ann [662]

Answer:

a. $2,020 Favorable

Explanation:

The computation of spending variance for direct materials in April is shown below:-

For computing the spending variance for direct materials in April first we need to find out the actual price per unit which is here below:-

Actual price per unit = Actual direct material ÷ Actual units purchased

= $49,086 ÷ $5,060

= $9.70

Spending variance for direct materials in April = (Actual price per unit - Standard price per unit) × Actual quantity

= ($9.70 - $10.10) × 5,060

= -$0.4 × 5,060

= $2,024 Favorable

which is closest to $2,020 Favorable.

Net Zero Products, a wholesaler of sustainable raw materials. Prepared the following aging of receivables analysis.
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Net Zero Products

a) The balance of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts using the aging of accounts receivable method is $4,300.

b) Adjusting Entry to record bad debt expense:

Debit Bad Debt Expense $1,700

Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $1,700

To record the bad debt expense for the period and bring the allowance to $4,300 credit balance.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Aging of receivables analysis:

Total (days)                          0        1 to 30     31 to 60     61 to 90     above 90

Accounts receivable $171,000   $96,000   $34,000     $15,000     $12,000

Percent uncollectible                      1%            4%                 6%            9%

Allowance for doubtful     0          $960        $1,360         $900        $1,080

Total allowance for doubtful = $4,300 (960 + 1,360 + 900 + 1,080)

b) The adjustment in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts needed for the current period is $1,700 ($4,300 - $2,600).  This amount will be debited to the Bad Debts Expense account and credited to the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.  It will bring the total for the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to $4,300 from $2,600.

Sheffield Company signed a long-term noncancelable purchase commitment with a major supplier to purchase raw materials in 2021 a
Sphinxa [80]

The journal entry to record the purchase of the raw materials by Sheffield Company is as follows:

Debit Purchases $1,031,600

Credit Accounts Payable $1,031,600

  • To record the purchase of the raw materials in 2021.

The December adjusting entry can be revised with:

Debit Estimated Liability $53,300

Credit Unrealized holding Loss $53,300

  • To reverse the December 31 adjusting entry.

<h3>What is an unrealized holding loss?</h3>

In this instance, the unrealized holding loss arose from the fact that the market value of the raw materials is less than the purchase amount because of the noncancelable commitment.

Thus, the unrealized holding loss arose as the difference between the market value and the purchase amount.

<h3>Data Analysis:</h3>

Purchases $1,031,600 Accounts Payable $1,031,600

Estimated Liability $53,300 Unrealized holding Loss $53,300

Thus, the entry to record the purchase is a debit to the purchases account and a credit to accounts payable.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The company's Cash account had a balance of <u>$54,000</u> on December 31.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the questions as follows:

Company's cash account had balance of 14000 on January 1

Receipts from customers- 50,000

payments for dividends- 10,000

receipts for dividends- 5,000

payments for merchandise- 25,000

receipts from issuance of stock- 20,000

On December 31, the company's cash balance is?

A 40,000

B 54,000

C 110,000

D 124,000

The explanation of the answer to the question is now given as follows:

the company's Cash account balance On December 31 can be obtained by simply adding the total cash receipts to and deducting the total cash payments from the Company's cash account balance of 14000 on January 1. This can be expressed as follows:

Cash balance on December 31 = Cash account balance on January 1 + Total cash receipts - Total cash payments .............. (1)

Where we have:

a. Cash account balance on January 1 = $14,000

b. Calculation Total cash receipts

Details                                                     $  

Receipts from customers                  50,000

receipts for dividends-                         5,000

receipts from issuance of stock     <u>   20,000   </u>

Total cash receipts                       <u>     75,000    </u>

c. Calculation Total cash payments

Details                                                      $  

Payments for dividends                     10,000

payments for merchandise            <u>   25,000  </u>

Total cash payments                     <u>   35,000  </u>

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Cash balance on December 31 = $14,000 + $75,000 - $35,000 = $54,000

Therefore, the company's Cash account had a balance of <u>$54,000</u> on December 31.
