Answer: $7,072 Unfavorable
Explanation:
Find fixed manufacturing overhead rate:
= Total budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead cost / Budgeted machine hours
= 35,360 / 2,600
= $13.60
Variance Favorable (Unfavorable) = (Standard hours allowed - Budgeted machine hours) * fixed manufacturing overhead rate
= (2,080 - 2,600) * 13.60
= -$7,072
Institute Technologies is choosing new cost drivers for its accounting system. One driver is labor hours, the other is a combination of machine hours for unit variable costs and number of setups for a pool of batch-level costs. Data for the past year follow.
Budget
Labor hours 200,000
Machine hours 360,000
Number of setups 3,000
Unit variable cost pool $1,600,000
Batch-level cost pool $ 900,000
Actual
200,000
450,000
3,300
$2,000,000
$ 990,000
Assume that the two separate pools are used for Institute. The flexible budget dollar amounts for the actual level of machine hours and actual number of setups are: __________.
Unit Variable Cost Pool Batch-Level Cost Pool
a) $1,600,000 $900,000
b) $1,600,000 $990,000
c) $2,000,000 $900,000
d) $2,000,000 $990,000
e) $2,500,000 $ 0
Answer:
d) $2,000,000 $990,000
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Unit variable cost pool is
= Budgeted cost ÷ Budgeted machine hours
= $1,600,000 ÷ 360,000
=$ 4.444 per machine hour
And,
Batch-level cost pool = Budgeted cost ÷ Budgeted number of setups
= $900,000 ÷ 3000
= $ 300 per setup
Now
Unit variable cost pool is
= Actual machine hours × Activity rate
= 450000 × 4.44
= $2,000,000
And, Batch-level cost pool is
= Actual number of setups × Activity rate
= 3300 × 300
=$990,000

Reliable Corporation provides computer consulting services to the local community and keeps its accounting records using cash-basis accounting. For the current year, cash was received from customers, $48,000, and cash salaries to employees were paid, $26,000. At the beginning of the year, customers owe Reliable $1,200. By the end of the year, customers owe $7,600. At the beginning of the year, Reliable owes employee salaries of $6,600. At the end of the year, Reliable owes employee salaries of $3,800. Determine cash-basis net income and accrual-basis net income for the current year.
Answer:
Net Income as per the Cash Basis Accounting $22,000
Net Income as per the Accrual Basis Accounting is $31,200
Explanation:
The cash basis accounting says that the net income is the cash left after the difference in the net cash inflow and cash outflow.
Mathematically,
Net Income By Using Cash Basis Accounting = Net Cash Inflow - Net Cash Outflow
Here
Net Cash Inflow is $48,000
Net Cash Outflow is $26,000
By putting values, we have:
Net Income By Using Cash Basis Accounting = $48,000 - $26,000
= $22,000
Now, when we are using accrual accounting then the first thing we should know is that whether the expense or income is related to the period or not. If the income is related to the period, then it must be included in the income and if it is not then it will be excluded. The same is with the expenses.
Accrual Income Computation:
Cash Received for the year is $48000 which will be included.
The receiveable amount of $1200 is for the previous period which means it will be excluded.
Furthermore, the receivable amount of $7600 includes $1200 of the previous month which means the difference ($6400) would be included.
This implies that
Accrual Income For The Period = $48000 + $6400 = $54,400
Now Accrual Expense Computation:
The cash salaries of $26000 paid to employees will be included.
The salaries payable of $6600 belongs to the previous period which means it must not be included.
The closing salaries payable is $3800 which means that the difference of opening and closing which is $2800, was paid against the previous month and hence must be deducted from the cash salaries for the period.
This implies that
Accrued Expense For The Period = $26000 - $2800 = $23200
Finally,
Net Accrued Income = $54,400 - $23,200 = $31,200
The net income is the income amount earned at the year-end. The amount of net income by cash basis is $22,000, while the net income by accrual basis is $23,200.
What is net income?The net income is the remaining amount of income with the business at the year-end. It is determined by deducting all the operating and non-operating expenses from the total income earned during the specified period.
The computation of net income by using cash basis accounting:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Net Income}&=\text{Net Cash Inflow}-\text{Net Cash Outflow}\\&=\$48,000-\$26,000\\&=\$22,000\end{aligned}[/tex]
The computation of net income by using accrual basis accounting is shown in the image attached below.
Therefore, the net income is $22,000 by cash basis accounting and $23,200 in accrual basis accounting.

XYZ Corporation is contemplating the replacement of an existing asset used in the operation of its business. The original cost of this asset was $28,000; since date of acquisition, the company has taken a total of $20,000 of depreciation expense on this asset. The current disposal (market) value of this asset is estimated as $18,000. XYZ is subject to a combined income tax rate, t, of 34%. What is the projected after-tax cash flow associated with the sale of the existing asset, rounded to nearest hundred dollars
Answer:
The projected after-tax cash flow associated with the sale of the existing asset is $14,600.
Explanation:
The projected after-tax cash flow can be calculated as follows:
Net book value of the asset = Original cost - Accumulated depreciation expense = $28,000 - $20,000 = $8,000
Capital gains = Estimated current disposal (market) value of the asset - Net book value of the asset = $18,000 - $8,000 = $10,000
Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $10,000 * 34% = $3,400
Projected after-tax cash flow = Estimated current disposal (market) value of the asset - Capital gains tax = $18,000 - $3,400 = $14,600
Therefore, the projected after-tax cash flow associated with the sale of the existing asset is $14,600.

On October 1, Vista View Company rented warehouse space to a tenant for $2,600 per month. The tennant paid five months rent in advance on that date, with the lease begginning immediately. The cash recipt was credited to the Unearned Rent account. The company's annual accounting period ends on December 31. The adjusting entry needed on December 31 is:
Answer:
The adjusting entry needed on December 31 is:
December 31
Debit : Unearned Rent $7,800
Credit : Rent Income $7,800
Explanation:
First, lets go through the accounting process of this journal as it started on October 1. Then afterwards we get to understand what needs to be adjusted and how.
October 1 - Vista View Company receives rent in advance.
Vista View Company, is not yet entitled to this amount since tenant has not used its services yet. That why the journal should be a simple Debit of Cash and Credit of Unearned Rent by the total of five months paid in advance $13,000 ($2,600 x 5 months).
December 31 - Now three months have expired and this period the Landlord is entitled to the amount that was previously received but only for the 3 months period.
Thus we need to recognize revenue and de-recognize the Unearned Rent liability with the amount for 3 months` rent
Ebay, Inc. went public in September of 1998. The following information on shares outstanding was listed in the final prospectus filed with the SEC. In the IPO, the Ebay issued 3,500,000 new shares. The initial price to the public was $18.00 per share. The final first-day closing price was $44.88. If the investment bankers retained $1.26 per share as fees, what was the net proceeds to Ebay in dollars
Answer:
Net proceeds to Ebay = $ 58,590,000.
Explanation:
An Initial Public Offering(IPO) refers to the sales of new block of shares to the general public by a company for the purpose of raising equity capital.
This exercise is always promoted by a third-party company referred to as an underwriter for a fee. The underwriter adds value to the capital raising share offering by contracting to buy up unsold share units should they be undersubscribed. The underwriting fee is a cost to the issuing company.
The net share capital due to the company is computed as follows
Gross share proceeds - underwriting fee
= (3,500,000 × $18.00) - (3,500,000× $1.26)
=$ 58,590,000.
Net proceeds to Ebay = $ 58,590,000.
The closing price of $44.88 is a distracter and should be ignored.
Minstrel Manufacturing uses a job order costing system. During one month, Minstrel purchased $226,800 of raw materials on credit; issued materials to production of $219,000 of which $37,200 were indirect. Minstrel incurred a factory payroll of $164,400, of which $47,200 was indirect labor. Minstrel uses a predetermined overhead application rate of 150% of direct labor cost. Minstrel's beginning and ending Work in Process Inventory are $17,900 and $31,800 respectively. Compute the cost of jobs transferred to Finished Goods Inventory.
Answer:
$460,900
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of jobs transferred to Finished Goods Inventory is shown below:
= beginning wip + Direct material + direct labor + manufacturing overhead - closing wip
= $17,900 + ($219,000 - $37,200) + ($164,400 - $47,200) + 150% of $117,200 - $31,800
= $17,900 + $181,800 + $117,200 + $175,800 - $31,800
= $460,900

A company called Brightline has made a deal with Disney to create a rail station at Disney Springs on its planned route from Miami to Tampa. Read about this. Is a private rail link a good idea? Will it make Amtrak function any better? Will it create openings for private sector rail owner/operators as was the case in the USA before Amtrak and as is the case in the UK where not all rail services are BritRail?
Answer:
The answer for all three questions is yes.
A private player will increase competition and will make Amtrak provide a better service. Private companies are generally more efficient since their focus is on creating value.
Amtrak might benefit since the private rail might be used as additional help when their service is overloaded.
Increased competition and increase in private investment is always better for everyone since it creates new opportunities.

Explanation:
Bonds carrying value = $739,816
