Answer:

Usher Co.

a. The units produced during the period is:

= 16,200 units

b. The pounds of raw materials purchased and used during the period is:

=  82,980 pounds

c. The actual cost per pound of raw materials is:

= $4.90

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Standard Cost Card

Direct materials (5 pounds at $5 per pound) $25.00

Direct labor (0.90 hours at $10)                           9.00

Variable overhead (0.90 hours at $4 per hour)  3.60

Fixed overhead (0.90 hours at $9 per hour)       8.10

                                                                         $45.70

Variances

Costs                        Total Standard Cost     Price         Quantity

Direct materials                     $405,000      $8,298 F   $9,900 U

Direct labor                               145,800        4,590 U     7,200  U

Units produced = Total standard cost/direct materials standard cost per unit

= $405,000/$25

= 16,200 units

Pounds of raw materials purchased and used = (Total standard cost + Unfavorable Quantity Variance)/direct materials standard cost per pound

= ($405,000 + $9,900)/$5

= 82,980 pounds

Actual costs:

Direct materials = $406,602 ($405,000 - $8,298 + $9,900)

Actual price per pound = $4.90 ($406,602/82,980)

Direct labor = $157,590 ($145,800 + 4,590 + 7,200)

Actual price per pound = ((Actual Quantity * Standard Price) - Favorable Price Variance)/Actual Quantity

= ((82,980 * $5) - $8,298)/82,980

= ($414,900 - $8,298)/82,980

= $406,602/82,980

= $4.90

A. The units produced during the period are 16200 (rounded off to nearest zero).

B. 82980 pounds of raw material was being required during the period.

C. The actual cost of raw materials come out of $4.90/pound

We know that formula to find units produced is,

[tex]\rm units\ produced=\dfrac{\rm{total standard cost}}{\rm{direct materials}}\\\\units \ produced = \dfrac{405000}{25}\\\\\rm units\ produced = 16200[/tex]

So, 16200 units were produced.

Raw material purchased and used can be obtained by the following formula,

[tex]\rm raw\ material\ used = \dfrac{\rm{total\ standard\ cost+\ unfavourable \ quantity\ variance}}{\rm{direct\ material \ standard\ cost\ per \pound}} \\\\ =\dfrac{4149000}{5}\\\\=829800[/tex]

So, 829800 pounds of raw material was consumed during the period.

The actual cost of raw material per pound can be calculated by simply dividing direct materials with pounds purchased and used which comes out to $4.90.

Hence, the answers are calculated as

Actual cost per pound = $4.90

Raw material consumed and purchased = 829800 pounds

Units produced = 16200 units

Assume there is an economy with a single bank, and the central bank sets the reserve requirement ratio at 5%. Assume also that the only bank had no transactions (i.e., no loans, reserves, or deposits) prior to an individual who deposits $2000 of currency with the bank.
a. As a result of this deposit, calculate the amount of required reserves, actual reserves, and excess reserves.
b. After the bank has issued the maximum amount of loans, what will be the total amount of loans, deposits, and money in the economy?
c. What is the size of the money multiplier for this economy?

Answers

Answer:

An Economy with a Single Bank

a. The amount of required reserves = $100

The amount of actual reserves = $100

The amount of excess reserves = $0.

b. The total amount of loans, deposits, and money in the economy

= $40,000

c. The size of the money multiplier for this economy

= 20

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Reserve requirement ratio = 5%

Customer's deposit = $2,000

Amount of required reserves

= Initial deposits multiplied by reserve ratio

= $100 ($2,000 * 5%)

Actual reserves = $100

Excess reserves = $0

Total amount of loans, deposits, and money in the economy

= Initial Deposits/Reserve Ratio

= $40,000 ($2,000/0.05)

The size of the money multiplier for this economy = Total money supply in the economy divided by the initial money deposits

= $40,000/$2,000

= 20

b) The Money Multiplier refers to how the initial deposit of $2,000 leads to a bigger final increase in the total money supply of $40,000.  It means that the money multiplier is 20 or that the initial deposit of $2,000 has multiplied by 20 to $40,000.

Consider the following statements when answering this question I. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the short-run market price. II. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the long-run market price. I is true, and II is false. I and II are true. I is false, and II is true. I and II are false.

Answers

Answer:

I and II are true

Explanation:

I. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the short-run market price

In the short run of the competitive industry when the market demand for goods rises then the price of these goods will also increase. This is because the price equals marginal revenue. Therefore, when price rises then marginal revenue will increase and as a result, the marginal cost curve moves up and firms produce more quantity of goods. This statement is therefore true.

II. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the long-run market price

The effect of the increase in goods demand is the same in the long run of the competitive industry as it is in the short run. Therefore, a rise in demand would raise the price of the goods above ATC (Average Total Cost). Hence, the above statement is also true.

A manufacturer has an estimated practical capacity of 90,000 machine hours, and each unit requires two machine hours.

A wage hike granted to a production supervisor. B. A newly imposed initiative to reduce finished goods inventory levels. C. Acceptance of an unexpected sales order. D. Temporary employment of workers with lower skill levels than originally anticipated.

Answers

Answer:

Of the following factors, the manufacturer's production volume variance is most likely to have been caused by:

D. Temporary employment of workers with lower skill levels than originally anticipated.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated practical capacity = 90,000 machine hours

Machine hours per unit = 2

Estimated production units based on capacity = 45,000 (90,000/2)

                                                   Budgeted          Actual

Variable overhead =                 $200,000      $240,000

Actual fixed overhead =           $450,000      $442,000

Machine hours                             90,000           88,000

Units produced                            45,000           42,000

Estimated units to be produced based on standard machine hour

= 44,000 units (88,000/2)

Variance between standard units to be produced and actual = 2,000 (44,000 - 42,000) Unfavorable

The standard cost of Product B manufactured by Pharrell Company includes 3.6 units of direct materials at $5.90 per unit.

(a) Compute the total materials variance and the price and quantity variances.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

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

Direct material price variance= (5.9 - 5.65)*26,600

Direct material price variance= $6,650 favorable

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

Direct material quantity variance= (7,300*3.6 - 26,600)*5.9

Direct material quantity variance= $1,888 unfavorable

On January 1, 2019, Wasson Company purchased a delivery vehicle costing $47,550. The vehicle has an estimated 7-year life and a $4,500 residual value. Wasson uses the units-of-production depreciation method and Wasson estimates that the vehicle will be driven 105,000 miles. What is the vehicle's book value as of December 31, 2020, assuming the vehicle was driven 10,500 miles during 2019 and driven 18,500 miles during 2020

Answers

Answer:

$35,660

Explanation:

the depreciable value of the vehicle = $47,550 - $4,500 = $43,050

depreciation expense per mile driven = $43,050 / 105,000 miles = $0.41

depreciation expense 2019 = $0.41 x 10,500 = $4,305

depreciation expense 2020 = $0.41 x 18,500 = $7,585

accumulated depreciation = $11,890

book value = $47,550 - $11,890 = $35,660

Create a business decision based on the company where you work (can be any company), a small business you hope to own someday or just make something up - then identify, define and explain an incremental cost, opportunity cost and sunk cost. You will need to be somewhat creative in your response.
Respond to this question with 5-7 meaningful sentences (or more - this one could be more)

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The business decision based on the company where you work would be this. To open a new small branch of the fast-food restaurant as a concession in the municipal stadium.

The incremental cost is the future costs as a result of this business decision. This means that we have to consider extra money on a monthly basis to pay for the rent of the concession booth at the Municipal stadium.

The opportunity cost is that instead of opening our branch in the new downtown mall, we decided to move with the stadium option. Having decided to be at the mall could have allowed us to have more clients on a daily basis, especially on weekends.

The sunk cost is a cost from the past, an historical cost that really is not important in the present time to make a decision. Maybe, just a reference to a case in the past. And that's it.

Here we can refer to a cost when we opened the first location of the restaurant, but it was five years ago. Those were different situations, necessities, and conditions.

An airline is considering a project of replacement and upgrading of machinery that would improve efficiency. The new machinery costs $400 today and is expected to last for 5 years with no salvage value. Straight line depreciation will be used. Project inflows connected with the new machinery will begin in one year and are expected to be $200 each year for 5 consecutive years and project outflows will also begin in one year and are expected to be $90 each year for 5 consecutive years. The corporate tax rate is 32% and the required rate of return is 9%. Calculate the project's net present value.

Answers

$-9.48

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Cash flow = (revenue - cost - depreciation) (1 - tax rate) + depreciation

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(400 - 0) / 5 = 80

(200 - 90- 80) x (1 - 0.32)  + 80 = $100.40

Cash flow in year 0 = $-400

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $100.40

I = 9%

NPV = $-9.48

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Riverview Company's budget for the coming year includes $7,000,000 for manufacturing overhead, 40,000 hours of direct labor, and 200,000 hours of machine time. If Riverview applies overhead using a predetermined rate based on machine-hours, what amount of overhead will be assigned to a unit of output which requires 0.4 machine hours and 0.30 labor hours to complete

Answers

Answer:

$70

Explanation:

With regards to the above, we need to compute first the overhead application rate.

Overhead application rate = Budgeted overhead / Budgeted activity/Budgeted machine hour

= $7,000,000 / 40,000 labor hours

= $175

Overhead application rate = $175 per direct labor hour

Assigned overhead = Overhead application rate × Number of machine hours consumed

= $175 × 0.4

= $70

International Gems sells fine jewelry and has implemented activity-based costing. Costs in the shipping department have been divided into three cost pools. The first cost pool contains costs that are related to packaging and shipping. International has determined that the number of boxes shipped is an appropriate cost driver for these costs. The second cost pool is made up of costs related to the final inspection of each item before it is shipped and the cost driver for this pool is the number of individual items that are inspected. The final cost pool is used for general operations of the department and the cost driver is the number of orders. Information about the activities is summarized below:
Cost Pool Estimated Total Costs Cost Driver Estimated Annual Activity
Packaging and shipping 67,200 Number of boxes shipped 16,000 boxes
Final inspection 200,000 Number of individual items inspected 100,000 items
General operations 85,000 Number of orders 10,000 orders
During the period, the Southern sales office generated 240 orders for a total of 3,560 items, which were shipped in 1,200 boxes. What amount of shipping department costs should be allocated to these sales?

Answers

Answer:67,200

Explanation:

The shipping department cost will be $14200.

What is the cost?

The term cost can be termed as the price of buying something or the amount that a company spends on making a product. It is the amount that is charged on something for the product. The incurred cost can have many variables and non-variable costs like purchasing cost, labor, wages, rent, maintenance, raw material, processing cost, packaging, and transportation.

In this Question, the International gems sell their product slots. The shipping department has been divided into three cost pools. The total shipping charges will be the addition of packaging and shipping, Final Inspection, and General operations.

So, the total shipping cost =5040 + 7120 + 2040 = 14200

Thus, the costs that should be allocated to the sales with respect to the shipping charges will be $14,200.

MillerCoors Brewing Company is the world’s fifth largest brewer. In the United States, its tie to the magical appeal of the Rocky Mountains is one of its most powerful trademarks. Some of the items included in its recent annual consolidated statement of cash flows presented using the indirect method are listed here. Indicate whether each item is disclosed in the Operating Activities (O), Investing Activities (I), or Financing Activities (F) section of the statement or use (NA) if the item does not appear on the statement. (Note: This is the exact wording used on the actual statement.)

Answers

Answer:

1. Purchase of stock. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.

Financing activities relate to transactions that involve the capital of the company. They include long term debt and equity. In this case, the company is buying back its own shares so this falls under Financing activities as it has to do with the company's own capital.

2. Principal payment on long-term debt. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.

Principal repayment retires long term debt and as mentioned above, financing activities relate to activities that involve long term debt.

3. Proceeds from sale of properties. INVESTING ACTVITIES.

Properties are fixed assets and transactions involving these are considered investing activities so the proceeds from a sale of properties would rightfully be an investing activity.

4. Inventories (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

Transactions that have to do with the day to day operations of the business fall under operating activities and this includes inventories decreasing.

5. Accounts payable (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

Operations of the business includes accounts payables decreasing as well.

6. Depreciation and amortization. OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

Depreciation and amortization arise from using the fixed assets for day to day operations so this will fall under Operating activities.

Perez Modems has excess production capacity and is considering the possibility of making and selling paging equipment. The following estimates are based on a production and sales volume of 2,200 pagers. Unit-level manufacturing costs are expected to be $32. Sales commissions will be established at $2.20 per unit. The current facility-level costs, including depreciation on manufacturing equipment ($72,000), rent on the manufacturing facility ($62,000), depreciation on the administrative equipment ($15,600), and other fixed administrative expenses ($77,950), will not be affected by the production of the pagers. The chief accountant has decided to allocate the facility-level costs to the existing product (modems) and to the new product (pagers) on the basis of the number of units of product made (i.e., 6,200 modems and 2,200 pagers). Required a. Determine the per-unit cost of making and selling 2,200 pagers. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) b. Assuming the pagers could be sold at a price of $46 each, should Perez make the pagers

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the per unit cost is shown below:

= Manufacturing cost per unit + sales commission per unit

= $32 + $2.20

= $34.20

Here we just add the two cost so that the per unit cost could come

b. Yes it should make the pagers as the cost per unit would be lower than the selling price i.e, $46

Therefore the above should be relevant for the given situation

Epsilon Co. can produce a unit of product for the following costs: Direct material $ 8 Direct labor 24 Overhead 40 Total costs per unit $72 An outside supplier offers to provide Epsilon with all the units it needs at $60 per unit. If Epsilon buys from the supplier, the company will still incur 40% of its overhead (this means that no matter what Epsilon does, 40% of the overhead costs will remain). Epsilon should choose to:

Answers

Answer:

It is cheaper to make the units in-house.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Make in-house:

Direct material $ 8

Direct labor 24

Overhead 40

Total costs per unit $72

Buying price= $60

We need to determine which option provides the lower cost. Because 40% of overhead will remain constant, we have to take it out of the equation.

Production cost:

Direct material $ 8

Direct labor 24

Overhead= 40*0.6= 24

Total production cost= $56

It is cheaper to make the units in-house.

Problem 8-27A (Static) Computing standard cost and analyzing variances LO 8-5, 8-6 Spiro Company manufactures molded candles that are finished by hand. The company developed the following standards for a new line of drip candles. Amount of direct materials per candle 1.6 pounds Price of direct materials per pound $ 1.50 Quantity of labor per unit 1 hour Price of direct labor per hour $ 20 /hour Total budgeted fixed overhead $ 390,000 During Year 2, Spiro planned to produce 30,000 drip candles. Production lagged behind expectations, and it actually produced only 24,000 drip candles. At year-end, direct materials purchased and used amounted to 40,000 pounds at a unit price of $1.35 per pound. Direct labor costs were actually $18.75 per hour and 26,400 actual hours were worked to produce the drip candles. Overhead for the year actually amounted to $330,000. Overhead is applied to products using a predetermined overhead rate based on estimated units.

Answers

This question asks us to:

a. Determine the standard cost per candle for direct products, direct labor, and overhead.

b. Calculate the total standard cost of one drip candle.

c. Determine the direct materials, direct labor, and overhead actual costs per candle.

d. The total actual cost of each candle

Answer:

Explanation:

a.

Cost                          Computation      Standard cost per unit

Direct material    [tex]\$1.50 \times 1.6[/tex]                     2.4

Direct Labor        [tex]\$20 \times 1[/tex]                           20

Overhead           [tex]\dfrac{\$390,000}{30000}[/tex]                        13

b.

To find the total average standard cost for 1 drip candle

The total standard cost per dip candle = $(2.4+20+13)

=$35.40

c. The actual cost per candle for direct materials, direct labor, and overhead can be computed as:

Cost                          Computation          Standard cost per unit

Direct material    [tex](\dfrac{40000}{24000}\times 1.35)[/tex]                           2.25

Direct Labor         [tex]\dfrac{26400}{24000} \times 18.75[/tex]                          20.63

Overhead            [tex]\dfrac{\$330,000}{24000}[/tex]                                    13.75

d. The total actual cost per candle = $(2.25 + 20.63 + 13.75)

= $36.63
