Explanation:
Mohave Corp. makes several varieties of beach umbrellas and accessories. It has been approached by a company called Lost Mine Industries about producing a special order for a custom umbrella called the Ultimate Shade (US). The special-order umbrellas with the Lost Mine Company logo would be distributed to participants at an upcoming convention sponsored by Lost Mine. Lost Mine has offered to buy 2,800 of the US umbrellas at a price of $26 each. Mohave currently has the excess capacity necessary to accept the offer. The following information is related to the production of the US umbrella: Direct materials $ 11.00 Direct labor 6.00 Variable manufacturing overhead 7.50 Fixed manufacturing overhead 2.50 Total cost $ 27.00 Regular sales price $ 34.00 Required: 1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order. 2. Should Mohave accept the special order
Answer:
The incremental profit is $4,200. Mohave should accept this order.
Explanation:
(1) Variable cost per unit = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead
Variable cost per unit = $11 + $6 + $7.5 = $24.5
Incremental profit = (Sale price per unit - Variable cost per unit) x Units sold
Incremental profit = ($26 - $24.5) x 2,800 = $4,200
(2) Mohave should accept the special order because it is resulting in a profit for the business. We are also informed that Mohave has the excess capacity necessary to accept the order. Hence, no additional fixed costs are incurred in accepting the order, implying that it is overall a profitable transaction for Mohave which it should accept.
The Corporation should accept the special order because the special order will results to a profit of $4,200 for the business.
What is the Variable cost per unit?= Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead
= $11 + $6 + $7.5
= $24.5
What is the Incremental profit?= (Sale price per unit - Variable cost per unit) x Units sold
= ($26 - $24.5) x 2,800
= $4,200
In conclusion, the Corporation should accept the special order because the special order will results to a profit of $4,200 for the business.

Duve Corporation has provided the following contribution format income statement. Assume that the following information is within the relevant range.
Sales (2,000 units) $ 40,000
Variable expenses 24,000
Contribution margin 16,000
Fixed expenses 11,200
Net operating income $ 4,800
If the selling price increases by $4 per unit and the sales volume decreases by 200 units, the net operating income would be closest to:
A.$7,200
B.$12,800
C.$10,400
D.$11,520
Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Sales (2,000 units) = $ 40,000
Variable expenses = 24,000
Contribution margin = 16,000
Fixed expenses = 11,200
Net operating income = $4,800
Selling price per unit:
= Sales ÷ Number of units
= $ 40,000 ÷ 2,000
= $20
Contribution margin:
= Sales - Variable costs
= [($20 + $4) × (2,000 units - 200 units)] - [(24,000 ÷ 2,000) × 1,800 units]
= $43,200 - $21,600
= $21,600
Net operating income:
= Contribution margin - Fixed expenses
= $21,600 - $11,200
= $10,400
During the first week of January, an employee works 45 hours. For this company, workers earn 150% of their regular rate for hours in excess of 40 per week. Her pay rate is $20 per hour, and her wages are subject to no deductions other than FICA Social Security, FICA Medicare, and federal income taxes. The tax rate for Social Security is 6.2% of the first $128,400 earned each calendar year and the FICA tax rate for Medicare is 1.45% of all earnings. The current FUTA tax rate is 0.6%, and the SUTA tax rate is 5.4%. Both unemployment taxes are applied to the first $7,000 of an employee’s pay. The employee has $92 in federal income taxes withheld. What is the amount of this employee’s gross pay for the first week of January?
Answer:
$950
Explanation:
Gross pay refers to the total income of an employee before taxes and deductions are removed.
The employee gross pay for the first week of January is calculated as follows:
Regular income = $20 × 40 hours = 800
Overtime income = ($20 × 150%) × (45 - 40 hours)
= $30 × 5 hours = $150
Gross pay = $800 + $150 = $950
NOTE
The following is not stated in the question but just meant to teach you how to calculate the net pay from the question in case you are later asked to calculate it.
Net pay refers to the total income of an employee after taxes and deductions are removed. It can be calculated as follows:
FICA Social Security = 6.2% × $950 = $58.90
Note that 6.2% of the remaining amount of $127,450 (i.e. $128,400 - $959 = $127,450) will still be deducted in the subsequent employee's income to account for the total FICA Social Security deductible.
FICA Medicare = 1.45% × $950 = $13.78
Federal income tax withheld = $92
Total deduction = $58.90 + $13.78 + $92 = $164.68
Note: As stated in the question, the employee's wages are subject to no deductions other than FICA Social Security, FICA Medicare, and federal income taxes. This implies that her wages are not subject to FUTA and the SUTA tax. That is why they are not included in the calculation of the total deduction.
Net Pay = Gross pay - total deduction = $950 - $164.68 = $785.32.
Answer:
Gross Wages = $950
Explanation:
The question is to determine the employee's gross pay for the first week of January as follows:
Description Amount
Regular wages (Regular hours 40 x $20) $800
Overtime wages $150
(Total hours - regular hours) x rate per hour
x pay rate
( 45-40) x $20 x 150%
Gross Wages $950
However, not that if you are to calculate the net wages, social security which is Gross x 6.2%, Medicare which is Gross x 1.45% and Federal Income tax which is $92 withheld will be subtracted from the gross pay or wages.
On January 1, 2018, Chamberlain Corporation pays $550,000 for an 80% ownership in Neville. Annual excess fair-value amortization of $25,000 results from the acquisition. For the year ended December 31, 2019, Chamberlain reports net income of $340,000 and Neville reports $175,000. The parent figures contain no income from the subsidiary.

Franco Company uses IFRS and owns property, plant, and equipment with a historical cost of $5,000,000. At December 31, 2016, the company reported a valuation reserve of $690,000. At December 31, 2017, the property, plant, and equipment was appraised at $5,325,000. The valuation reserve will show what balance at December 31, 2017?
Answer:
$325,000
Explanation:
Valuation reserve is the amount added to to an asset to absorb for any future decrease in the value of such asset.
Given:
Real cost of property, plant, and equipment = $5,000,000
Appraised later/future cost = $5,325,000
Valuation reserve= later/future Appraisal cost - Real cost
=$5,325,000 - $5,000,000
=$325,000
One of Stine Company’s activity cost pools is machine setups, with estimated overhead of $300000. Stine produces sparklers (400 setups) and lighters (600 setups). How much of the machine setup cost pool should be assigned to sparklers?
Answer:
$120,000
Explanation:
In activity based costing, cost is allocated to each unit/department based on activities. In other words, the more the level of activities a unit/department is involved in, the more the cost that will be allocated to that unit and vice versa.
Given that Stine produces sparklers (400 setups) and lighters (600 setups), machine setup cost pool should be assigned to sparklers will be
= (400/(400 + 600)) × $300000
= $120,000
The machine setup cost pool assigned to sparklers at Stine Company is $120,000. This is calculated by determining the cost per setup ($300) and multiplying it by the number of setups for sparklers (400).
To calculate how much of the machine setup cost pool should be assigned to sparklers at Stine Company, we first need to determine the total number of setups for all products.
The total number of setups is the sum of setups for sparklers and lighters which is 400 setups for sparklers and 600 setups for lighters, totaling 1000 setups.
With the estimated overhead for machine setups being $300,000, we can calculate the cost per setup by dividing the total overhead by the total number of setups: $300,000 / 1000 setups = $300 per setup.
Since sparklers require 400 setups, we multiply the number of setups for sparklers by the cost per setup: 400 setups * $300 per setup = $120,000.
Therefore, the cost pool amount assigned to sparklers would be $120,000.

Alex, who is single, conducts an activity in 2019 that is appropriately classified as a hobby. The activity produces the following revenues and expenses: Revenue $18,000 Property taxes 3,000 Materials and supplies 4,500 Utilities 2,000 Advertising 5,000 Insurance 750 Depreciation 4,000 Without regard to this activity, Alex's AGI is $42,000. Determine the amount of income Alex must report and the amount of the expenses he is permitted to deduct. Assume Alex itemizes his deductions.
Answer:
The solution to the given problem is done below.
Explanation:
Alex must report the $18,000 as revenues. All of the property taxes of $3,000 can be deducted. Because the remaining expenses of $16,250 exceed the balance of $15,000 ($18,000 revenues − $3,000 property taxes), the $15,000 is deductible as follows:
Materials and supplies $ 4,500
Utilities 2,000
Advertising 5,000
Insurance 750
Depreciation (because depreciation is sequenced
last, only $2,750 of the $4,000 is eligible) 2,750
Total deductible expenses $15,000
These expenses of $15,000 are classified as miscellaneous itemized deductions and will be subject to the 2%-of-AGI floor. Hence, $1,200 [($42,000 + $18,000) × 2%] of these expenses is disallowed.
Other AGI $42,000
Revenues from hobby $18,000
Less: Expenses
Property taxes (3,000)
Miscellaneous itemized
deduction ($15,000 − $1,200) (13,800)
Less: Personal exemption (4,050)
Taxable income $39,150
The sales volume variance is______________.a. further divided into separate sales quantity and sales mix variances
b. further divided into separate revenue and quantity variances
c. not further divided
d. further divided into separate flexible budget and sales volume variances
e. further divided into separate variable and fixed variances
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": further divided into separate sales quantity and sales mix variances.
Explanation:
The sales volume variance represents the change inf the profit of a company as a result of the changes in the sales volume per unit. It is calculated by subtracting the budgeted sales volume from the actual sales volume and multiplying the result by the budgeted price per unit of the product.
Sales volume variance can be split in sales mix variance and sales quantity variance which are used to evaluate the performance of the marketing department. The sales mix variance represents the performance of the department selling profitable products while the sales quantity variance shows the performance of the marketing department in terms of overall sales volume.
