Neko [114]

Answer:

July 1, Year 1

Prepaid Insurance $15000 Dr

Cash $15000 Cr

Dec 31, Year 1

Insurance expense $2500 Dr

Prepaid Insurance $2500 Cr

July 1, Year 1

Cash $15000 Dr

Unearned Service revenue $15000 Cr

Dec 31, Year 1

Unearned service revenue $2500 Dr

Service revenue $2500 Cr

Explanation:

The company will record the cash going out of the business for prepaid insurance as credit and the asset account prepaid insurance as debit to record the prepayment of insurance for 3 years at the amount of $15000.

The insurance paid out is for 3 years. So, the per year insurance expense is,

Insurance expense per year = $15000 / 3 = $5000

The adjusting entry made on 31 december will record the insurance months consumed (6 months) as an expense and debit the insurance expense and credit the prepaid insurance asset account.

The insurance expense for 6 months = 5000 * 6/12 = $2500

For the receiving company, the cash is being received and as the service will be provided later on, the cash received will be debited and the unearned service revenue will be credited.

As six months worth of cover has passed, on 31 December, the company will record service revenue for 6 months that is $2500 and debit the liability recorded under unearned service revenue.

The normal time for a repetitive task that produced two work units per cycle is 3.0 min. The plan uses a PFD allowance factor of

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

A.- 3.45 min to produce two work units

B.- In a 8-hout shift at standard performance 274 work units are produced

Explanation:

The Standart tiem per piece would be:

$StandardTime=NormalTime*(1+PFD)$

Given your numbers it will be:

$3 * (1 + 0.15)= 3.45$

This is the time per cycle to produce 2 work units

Now, in an 8 hours shift there are 480 minutes. Dividing between the standard time of a cycle we get the standard performance

$\frac{480}{3.45} = 137.14$

Rounding, we will be getting 137 cycles

Lastly, because each cycle produce 2 work units we are having a total of 274 Units

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Diluted earnings per share is $2.87

Explanation:

The extent to which the option would dilute the earnings per share to the extent of the difference between the option of price and the share market price.

The shares that are capable of dilute the earnings can be computed thus:

Market price-option price/market price*outstanding options shares

market price is $36

option price is $30

outstanding options shares is 12,600

($36-$30)/$36*12,600=2,100 shares

Diluted earnings per share=$602,000/(208,000+2100)=$2.87
