P17-30 Allegheny River Sawmill solution $ 5.00 USDAdd to Cart
Microsoft Word

Allegheny River Sawmill manufactures two lumber products from a joint milling process. The two products developed are mine support braces (MSB) and unseasoned commercial building lumber (CBL). A standard production run incurs joint costs of $750,000 and results in 60,000 units of MSB and 90,000 units of CBL. Each MSB sells for $5, and each unit of CBL sells for $10.

 Required:

1. Calculate the amount of joint cost allocated to commercial building lumber (CBL) on a physicalunits basis.

2. Calculate the amount of joint cost allocated to the mine support braces (MSB) on a relative-salesvalue basis.

3. Assume the commercial building lumber is not marketable at split-off but must be further planed and sized at a cost of $1,000,000 per production run. During this process, 10,000 units areunavoidably lost; these spoiled units have no value. The remaining units of commercial buildinglumber are saleable at $25.00 per unit. The mine support braces, although saleable immediately at the split-off point, are coated with a tarlike preservative that costs $250,000 per production run. The braces are then sold for $12.50 each. Using the net-realizable-value basis, compute the completed cost assigned to each unit of commercial building lumber.

4. If Allegheny River Sawmill chose not to process the mine support braces beyond the splitoff point, the contribution from the joint milling process would increase or decrease by what amount?

5. Did you use the joint cost allocation results in answering requirement (4)? If so, how? Why did you use or not use the allocation results?

2. Slayton Enterprises produces computer equipment and programs for heavy equipment manufacturers. One of the most important parts of the company's new just-in-time production process is quality control. Initially, a traditional cost accounting system was used to assign quality control costs to products. All of the costs of the Quality Control Department were included in the plant's overhead cost rate and allocated to products based on direct labor dollars. Recently, the firm implemented an activity-based costing system. The activities, cost drivers, and rates for the quality control function are summarized below, along with cost allocation information from the traditional system. Also shown is information related to one order of the Ace computer line.

Traditional Costing Approach:

Quality control costs were assigned at a rate of 9% of direct labor dollars.

Factor Models     

1. Suppose a three-factor model is appropriate to describe the returns of a stock.  Information about those three factors is presented in the following chart:

Factor                                  β                        Expected Value                    Actual Value  
GDP                                   .0000479                         $13,275                                   $13,601   
Inflation                           -1.30                                   3.9%                                     3.2%                    
Interest rates                                -.67                                       5.2%                                    4.7%
                                     

 
 
 
 
 
 a. What is the systematic risk of the stock return?
b. Suppose unexpected bad news about the firm was announced that causes the stock price to drop by 2.6 percent. If the expected return on the stock is 10.8 percent, what is the total return on this stock?
 
  Multifactor Models     
3.  Suppose stock returns can be explained by a two-factor model. The firm specific risks for all stocks are independent. The following table shows the information for two diversified portfolios:

                                            β1            β2          E(R)  
Portfolio A                       .85           1.15        16%                     
Portfolio B                       1.45           -.25         12
                                     

 
 
 
 
a. If the risk-free rate is 4 percent, what are the risk premiums for each factor in this model?
  Portfolio Risk     
3. You are forming an equally weighted portfolio of stocks. Many stocks have the same beta of .84 for factor 1 and the same beta of 1.69 for factor 2. All stocks also have the same expected return of 11 percent. Assume a two-factor model describes the return on each of these stocks.
a. Write the equation of the returns on your portfolio if you place only five stocks in it.
b. Write the equation of the returns on your portfolio if you place in it a very large number of stocks that all have the same expected returns and the same betas.
 
 APT    
4. Assume that the returns on individual securities are generated by the following two-factor model:
                                                Rit = E(Rit) + βijF1t + βi2F2t  
      Here:  
                       Ritis the return on security i at time t.
                       F1t and F2t are market factors with zero expectation and zero covariance.
 
In addition, assume that there is a capital market for four securities, and the capital market for these four assets is perfect in the sense that there are no transaction costs and short sales (i.e., negative positions) are permitted. The characteristics of the four securities follow: 
                                   

       Security         β1            β2          E(R)  
        1               1.0            1.5          20%

        4               1.5          .75          10          
                                     

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

a. Construct a portfolio containing (long or short) securities 1 and 2, with a return that does not depend on the market factor, F1t, in any way. (Hint: Such a portfolio will have β1 = 0.)

b. Compute the expected return and β2 coefficient for this portfolio.

c. Following the procedure in (a), construct a portfolio containing securities 3 and 4 with a return that does not depend on the market factor, F1t.

d. Compute the expected return and β2 coefficient for this portfolio.

e. There is a risk-free asset with an expected return equal to 5 percent, β1 = 0, and β2 = 0. Describe a possible arbitrage opportunity in such detail that an investor could implement it.

American Apparel is the largest T-shirt manufacturer in the United States. All of its manufacturing is done in a single factory which employs 4,000 workers in central Los Angeles. The owner of this firm, Dov Charney, has been praised for treating his workers well:

“Pay is performance-related, and amounts to $12 an hour on average, far above California's minimum wage of $6.75. American Apparel staff can buy subsidized health insurance for $8 a week. They are entitled to free English lessons, subsidized meals and free parking.” (“The Hustler,” The Economist, January 4, 2007.)

The article goes on to delineate the high cost of these non-wage benefits. But Mr. Charney claims not to be an altruist. He is simply trying to maximize profit. Why might Mr. Chareny’s profit be higher by paying all the added benefits to his workers?

 Sue Power contracted Country Products to produce 500 quilt racks as a special order. Power wanted the racks made from teak and to be made larger than the company’s normal racks. Country Products designated Power’s order as Job #462.
During July, Country Products purchased $346,000 of raw material on account, of which $19,000 was teak. Requisitions were issued for $340,000 of raw material, including all the teak. There were 285 direct labor hours worked (at a rate of $11 per DLH) and 2,400 machine hours recorded in Department 1; of these hours, 25 DLHs and 320 MHs were on Job # 462. Department 2 had 1,420 DLHs (at a rate of $18 per DLH) and 180 MHs; of these, 158 DLHs and 20 MHs were worked on Job #462. Assume that all wages are paid in cash.
Job #462 was completed on July 28 and shipped to Power. She was billed cost plus 20 percent.
a.       What are the predetermined overhead rates for Departments 1 and 2?
b.      Prepare journal entries for the July transactions.
c.       What were the cost and selling price per unit of Job #462? What was the cost per unit of raw material?
d.      Assume that enough pine had been issued in July for 20,000 quilt racks. The RM inventory manager is a friend of Power and he conveniently “forgot” to trace the cost of the teak specifically to Job #462. What would have been the effect of this error on the raw material cost. Total cost, and selling price for each unit in Job #462?

The balance sheet that follows indicates the capital structure for Nealon Inc. Flotation costs are (a) 15 percent of market value for a new bond issue, and (b) $2.01 per share for preferred stock. The dividends for common stock were $2.50 last year and are projected to have an annual growth rate of 6 percent. The firm is in a 34 percent tax bracket. What is the weighted average cost of capital if the firm’s finances are in the following proportions?

TYPE OF FINANCING
PERCENTAGE OF FUTURE FINANCING
Bonds (8%, $1,000 par, 16-year maturity)
38%
Preferred stock (5,000 shares outstanding, $50 par, $1.50 dividend)
15%
Common equity
47%
Total
100%

a. Market prices are $1,035 for bonds, $19 for preferred stock, and $35 for common stock. There will be sufficient internal common equity funding (i.e., retained earnings) available such that the firm does not plan to issue new common stock. Calculate the firm’s weighted average cost of capital.

b. In part a we assumed that Nealon would have sufficient retained earnings such that it would not need to sell additional common stock to finance its new investments. Consider the situation now, when Nealon’s retained earnings anticipated for the coming year are expected to fall short of the equity requirement of 47 percent of new capital raised. Consequently, the firm foresees the possibility that new common shares will have to be issued. To facilitate the sale of shares, Nealon’s investment banker has advised management that they should expect a price discount of approximately 7 percent, or $2.45 per share. Under these terms, the new shares should provide net proceeds of about $32.55. What is Nealon’s cost of equity capital when new shares are sold, and what is the weighted average cost of the added funds involved in the issuance of new shares?

It’s been 2 months since you took a position as an assistant financial analyst at Caledonia Products. Although your boss has been pleased with your work, he is still a bit hesitant about unleashing you without supervision. Your next assignment involves both the calculation of the cash flows associated with a new investment under consideration and the evaluation of several mutually exclusive projects. Given your lack of tenure at Caledonia, you have been asked not only to provide a recommendation but also to respond to a number of questions aimed at judging your understanding of the capital-budgeting process. The memorandum you received outlining your assignment follows:

  • To: The Assistant Financial Analyst
  • From: Mr. V. Morrison, CEO, Caledonia Products
  • Re: Cash Flow Analysis and Capital Rationing
We are considering the introduction of a new product. Currently we are in the 34 percent marginal tax bracket with a 15 percent required rate of return or cost of capital. This project is expected to last 5 years and then, because this is somewhat of a fad product, be terminated. The following information describes the new project:

Cost of new plant and equipment
$7,900,000
 
Shipping and installation costs
$ 100,000
Unit sales
 
 
 
YEAR
UNITS SOLD   
 

 
    1
70,000   
 
    2
120,000   
 
    3
140,000   
 
    4
80,000   
 
    5
60,000   
Sales price per unit
$300/unit in years 1 through 4, $260/unit in year 5
Variable cost per unit
$180/unit
Annual fixed costs
$200,000
Working-capital requirements
There will be an initial working-capital requirement of $100,000 just to get production started. For each year, the total investment in net working capital will be equal to 10 percent of the dollar value of sales for that year. Thus, the investment in working capital will increase during years 1 through 3, then decrease in year 4. Finally, all working capital is liquidated at the termination of the project at the end of year 5.
The depreciation method
Use the simplified straight-line method over 5 years. Assume that the plant and equipment will have no salvage value after 5 years.

 

a. Should Caledonia focus on cash flows or accounting profits in making its capital-budgeting decisions? Should the company be interested in incremental cash flows, incremental profits, total free cash flows, or total profits?

b. How does depreciation affect free cash flows?

c. How do sunk costs affect the determination of cash flows?

d. What is the project’s initial outlay?

e. What are the differential cash flows over the project’s life?

f. What is the terminal cash flow?

g. Draw a cash flow diagram for this project.

h. What is its net present value?

i. What is its internal rate of return?

j. Should the project be accepted? Why or why not?

k. In capital budgeting, risk can be measured from three perspectives. What are those three measures of a project’s risk?

l. According to the CAPM, which measurement of a project’s risk is relevant? What complications does reality introduce into the CAPM view of risk, and what does that mean for our view of the relevant measure of a project’s risk?

m. Explain how simulation works. What is the value in using a simulation approach?

n. What is sensitivity analysis and what is its purpose?

1. The controller of a small private college is complaining about the amount of work she is required to do at the beginning of each month. The president of the university requires the controller to submit a monthly report by the fifth day of the following month. The monthly report contains pages of financial data from operations. The controller was heard saying, "Why does the president need all this information? He probably doesn't read half of the report. He's an old English professor and probably doesn't know the difference between a cost and revenue.

a. What is the probable role of the monthly report?

b. What is the controller's responsibility with respect to a president who doesn't know much accounting?

2. Midstate University is trying to decide whether to allow 100 more students into the university. Tuition is $5000 per year. The controller has determined the following schedule of costs to educate students: Number of Students Total Costs 4000 $30,000,000 4100 30,300,000 4200 30,600,000 4300 30,900,000. The current enrollment is 4200 students. The president of the university has calculated the cost per student in the following manner:$30,600,000/4200 students = $7286 per student. The president was wondering why the university should accept more students if the tuition is only $5000.

a. What is wrong with the president's calculation?

b. What are the fixed and variable costs of operating the university?

3. A soft drink company has three bottling plants throughout the country. Bottling occurs at the regional level because of the high cost of transporting bottled soft drinks. The parent company supplies each plant with the syrup. The bottling plants combine the syrup with carbonated soda to make and bottle the soft drinks. The bottled soft drinks are then sent to regional grocery stores. The bottling plants are treated as costs centers. The managers of the bottling plants are evaluated based on minimizing the cost per soft drink bottled and delivered. Each bottling plant uses the same equipment, but some produce more bottles of soft drinks because of different demand. The costs and output for each bottling plant are: A B C Units Produced 10,000,000 20,000,000 30,000,000Variable Costs $ 200,000 $450,000 $650,000 Fixed Costs $1,000,000 $1,000,000 $1,000,000.

a. Estimate the average cost per unit for each plant.

b. Why would the manager of plant A be unhappy with using the average cost as the performance measure?

c. What is an alternative performance measure that would make the manager of plant A happier?

d. Under what circumstances might the average cost be a better performance measure?

4. The Jung Corporation’s budget calls for the following production:

Quarter 1 45,000 units

Quarter 2 38,000 units

Quarter 3 34,000 units

Quarter 4 48,000 units.

Each unit of production requires three pounds of direct material. The company’s policy is to begin each quarter with an inventory of direct materials equal to 30 percent of that quarter’s direct material requirements.

Compute budgeted direct materials purchases for the third quarter.

5. The maintenance department's costs are allocated to other departments based on the number of hours of maintenance use by each department. The maintenance department has fixed costs of $500,000 and variable costs of $30 per hour of maintenance provided. The variable costs include the salaries of the maintenance workers. More maintenance workers can be added if greater maintenance is demanded by the other departments without affecting the fixed costs of the maintenance department. The maintenance department expects to provide 10,000 hours of maintenance.

a. What is the application rate for the maintenance department?

b. What is the additional cost to the maintenance department of providing another hour of maintenance?

c. What problem exists if the managers of other departments can choose how much maintenance to be performed?

d. What problem exists if the other departments are allowed to go outside the organization to buy maintenance services?

6. Sonimad Sawmill manufactures two lumber products from a joint milling process. The two products developed are mine support braces (MSBs) and unseasoned commercial building lumber (CBL). A standard production run incurs joint costs of $300,000 and results in 60,000 units of MSB and 90,000 units of CBL. Each unprocessed unit of MSB sells for $2 per unit and each unprocessed unit of CBL sells for $4 per unit. If the CBL is processed further at a cost of $200,000, it can be sold at $10 per unit but 10,000 units are unavoidably lost (with no discernible value). The MSB units can be coated with a preservative at a cost of $100,000 per production run and then sold for $3.50 each.

a. If no further work is done after the initial milling process, calculate the cost of CBL using physical quantities to allocate the joint cost.

b. If no further work is done after the initial milling process, calculate the cost of MSB using relative sales value to allocate the joint cost.

c. Should MSB and CBL be processed further or sold immediately after initial milling?

Capital budgeting solution in excel$ 20.00 USDAdd to Cart

1. Toying With Nature wants to take advantage of children's current fascination with dinosaurs by adding several scale-model dinosaurs to its existing product line. Annual sales of the dinosaurs are estimated at 80,000 units at a price of $6 per unit. Variable manufacturing costs are estimated at $2.50 per unit, incremental fixed manufacturing costs (excluding depreciation) at $43,000 annually, and additional selling and general expenses related to the dinosaurs at $58,000 annually.         

To manufacture the dinosaurs, the company must invest $350,000 in design molds and special equipment. Since toy fads wane in popularity rather quickly, Toying With Nature anticipates the special equipment will have a three-year service life with only a $20,000 salvage value. Depreciation will be computed on a straight-line basis. All revenue and expenses other than depreciation will be received or paid in cash. The company's combined federal and state income tax rate is 40 percent.

Instructions

 a.Prepare a schedule showing the estimated increase in annual net income from the planned manufacture and sale of dinosaur toys.

 b.Compute the annual net cash flows expected from this project.

c.Compute for this project the (1) payback period, (2) return on average investment, and (3) net present value, discounted at an annual rate of 15 percent.

3. Sonic, Inc., sells business software. Currently, all of its programs come on disks. Due to their complexity, some of these applications occupy as many as seven disks. Not only are the disks cumbersome for customers to load, they are relatively expensive for Sonic to purchase. The company does not intend to discontinue using disks altogether. However, it does want to reduce its reliance on the disk medium.

Two proposals are being considered. The first is to provide software on computer chips. Doing so requires a $300,000 investment in equipment. The second is to make software available through a computerized "software bank." In essence, programs would be downloaded directly from Sonic using telecommunication technology. Customers would gain access to Sonic's mainframe, specify the program they wish to order, and provide their name, address, and credit card information. The software would then be transferred directly to the customer's hard drive, and copies of the users' manual and registration material would be mailed the same day. This proposal requires an initial investment of $240,000.

The following information pertains to these proposals. Due to rapidly changing technology, neither proposal is expected to have any salvage value or an estimated life exceeding six years.

Nance’s Restaurant, a local independent restaurant, is evaluating new point-of-sale (POS) systems and must determine if a new installation is feasible. A new POS installation would include both software and hardware, with a total cost of $20,000.

Nance’s Restaurant is currently operating without a point-of-sale system and utilizes a chit system with carbon copy papers that allow the waitstaff to provide a copy to the kitchen and the customer while retaining a copy for accounting purposes. Management is aware that this is an archaic system and that a POS system will create efficiencies, but they are not sure it is worth the cost.

Through analysis, management has determined that a POS system would allow the wait staff to turn tables quicker, therefore increasing the number of guests serviced and the sales volume.
Another advantage of the POS system is that it provides reports to management, allowing them to better analyze their business. Taking all of these factors into consideration, Nance’s management forecasts incremental increases in profit over the next three years of $8,000, $9,000, and $10,000.

Star restaurant solution in excel$ 10.00 USDAdd to Cart

The Star Restaurant Company owns and operates Chinese restaurants throughout the northwestern United States. Paris Brown, vice president of development, has been analyzing a new metropolitan market for expansion opportunities. The company’s best option would be to acquire a distressed property at a low price and turn it into a money-making venture. Ms. Brown is contemplating taking over a restaurant that recently failed and is currently closed. The restaurant is located in the parking lot of a large regional shopping mall. The mall owner is anxious to reopen the restaurant, as in its current state it is an eyesore and a deterrent to attracting retail customers.

Ms. Brown asks the previous owner for historical operating results for the failed restaurant, and she is provided with the following information:
 
Siesta Restaurant
Operating Results
(000)
2002 2003 2004 2005 2006

Food $900 $925 $950 $975 $1,000

Total 1,240 1,290 1,332 1,372 1,405
Operating Profit (Loss) $10 $(5) $(17) $(27) $(30)

Based on Paris’s market analysis, tour of the competition, inspection of the subject property,
and interviews with the prior owner, she concludes a Star Restaurant would work in the subject
space, but it would require approximately $200,000 of renovation and conversion cost in addition
to the land purchase price of $2,000,000. By Year 5, the restaurant could generate $2.5 million
in annual food revenue and $1.5 million in annual beverage revenue. Ms. Brown estimates the
following cash flows for the first five years of operations, with cash flows leveling off in Year 5.
Year Cash Flow
1       $695,000
2         876,250
3     1,057,500
4     1,238,750
5   1,420,000

1) Calculate the IRR and NPV of this project utilizing a 10% discount rate. Ms. Brown was able to secure a loan for $1,640,000, and an equity investor agreed to invest the remaining $560,000 in exchange for 15% ownership in the project.
2) What is the loan-to-value ratio for this project?
3) What would the investor’s ROI be for this 5-year project if the restaurant achieved its budgeted operating results for the year?
4) If the investor has a hurdle rate of 13%, does this project meet or exceed the investor’s Requirements?

Garcia truckin solution$ 5.00 USDAdd to Cart
Microsoft Word

Garcia’s Truckin’ Inc. is considering the purchase of a new production machine for $200,000. The purchase of this machine will result in an increase in earnings before interest and taxes of $50,000 per year. To operate this machine properly, workers would have to go through a brief training session that would cost $5,000 after tax. In addition, it would cost $5,000 after tax to install this machine properly. Also, because this machine is extremely efficient, its purchase would necessitate an increase in inventory of $20,000. This machine has an expected life of 10 years, after which it will have no salvage value. Finally, to purchase the new machine, it appears that the firm would have to borrow $100,000 at 8 percent interest from its local bank, resulting in additional interest payments of $8,000 per year. Assume simplified straight-line depreciation and that this machine is being depreciated down to zero, a 34 percent marginal tax rate, and a required rate of return of 10 percent.

a. What is the initial outlay associated with this project?
b. What are the annual after-tax cash flows associated with this project for years 1 through 9?

Management expects June’s results to be repeated in July, August, and September without any changes in strategy. Management, however, has another plan. It believes that unit sales will increase at a rate of 10% each month for the next three months (beginning with July) if the item’s selling price is reduced to $ 180 per unit and advertising expenses are increased by 20% and remain at that level for all three months. The cost of its product will remain at $ 90 per unit, the sales staff will continue to earn a 12% commission, and the remaining expenses will stay the same.

Required
1.       Prepare budgeted income statements for each of the months of July, August, and September that show the expected results from implementing the proposed changes. Use a three- column format, with one column for each month.
Analysis Component
2.        Use the budgeted income statements from part 1 to recommend whether management should implement the proposed plan. Explain.

May ( budgeted) . . . . . . . . .    10,500                           231,000
All sales are on credit. Recent experience shows that 40% of credit sales is collected in the month of the sale, 35% in the month after the sale, 23% in the second month after the sale, and 2% proves to be uncollectible. The product’s purchase price is $ 12 per unit. All purchases are payable within 21 days. Thus, 30% of purchases made in a month is paid in that month and the other 70% is paid in the next month. The company has a policy to maintain an ending monthly inventory of 20% of the next month’s unit sales plus a safety stock of 100 units. The January 31 and February 28 actual inventory levels are consistent with this policy. Selling and administrative expenses for the year are $ 960,000 and are paid evenly throughout the year in cash. The company’s minimum cash balance for month- end is $ 25,000. This minimum is maintained, if necessary, by borrowing cash from the bank. If the balance exceeds $ 25,000, the company repays as much of the loan as it can without going below the minimum. This type of loan carries an annual 12% interest rate. At February 28, the loan balance is $ 20,000, and the company’s cash balance is $ 25,000.
Required
1. Prepare a table that shows the computation of cash collections of its credit sales (accounts receivable) in each of the months of March and April.
2. Prepare a table showing the computations of budgeted ending inventories (units) for January, February, March, and April.
3. Prepare the merchandise purchases budget for February, March, and April. Report calculations in units and then show the dollar amount of purchases for each month.
 4. Prepare a table showing the computation of cash payments on product purchases for March and April.
5. Prepare a cash budget for March and April, including any loan activity and interest expense. Compute the loan balance at the end of each month.
Analysis Component
6. Refer to your answer to part 5. Parador’s cash budget indicates whether the company must borrow additional funds at the end of March. Suggest some reasons that knowing the loan needs in advance would be helpful to management.

Although a production volume of 5,000 saddles was originally budgeted for the year, the actual volume of production achieved for the year was 6,000 saddles. Direct materials and direct labor are charged to production at actual cost. Factory overhead is applied to production at the predetermined rate of 150 percent of the actual direct labor cost.

 

After a quick glance at the performance report showing an unfavorable manufacturing cost variance of $75,000, the president said to the accountant: "Fix this thing so it makes sense. It looks as though our production people really blew the budget. Remember that we exceeded our budgeted production schedule by a significant margin. I want this performance report to show a better picture of our ability to control costs."

The following standard and actual cost data applied to the month of May when normal capacity was 14,000 direct labor hours. All materials purchased were used.

Cost Element

Standard (per unit)

Actual
Direct materials 8 yards at $4.30 per yard $371,050 for 90,500 yards
     ($4.10 per yard)
Direct labor 1.2 hours at $13.50 per hour $201,630 for 14,300 hours
     ($14.10 per hour)
Overhead 1.2 hours at $6.00 per hour $49,000 fixed overhead
(fixed $3.50; variable $2.50) $37,000 variable overhead

Overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours. At normal capacity, budgeted fixed overhead costs were $49,000, and budgeted variable overhead was $35,000.

Instructions

Compute the total, price, and quantity variances for (1) materials and (2) labor, and (3) the total, controllable, and volume variances for manufacturing overhead.

Gourmet Specialty Coffee Company (GSCC) is a distributor and processor of different blends of coffee. The company buys coffee beans from around the world and roasts, blends, and packages them for resale. GSCC currently has 12 different coffees that it offers to gourmet shops in one-pound bags. The major cost is raw materials; however, there is a substantial amount of manufacturing overhead in the predominantly automated roasting and packing process. The company uses relatively little direct labor.

Some of the coffees are very popular and sell in large volumes, while a few of the newer blends have very low volumes. GSCC prices its coffee at full product cost, including allocated overhead, plus a markup of 30 percent. If prices for certain coffees are significantly higher than market, adjustments are made. The company competes primarily on the quality of its products, but customers are price-conscious as well. Data for the 20x5 budget include manufacturing overhead of $12,000,000, which has been allocated on the basis of each product’s direct-labor cost. The budgeted direct-labor cost for 20x5 totals $1,200,000. Based on the sales budget and raw-material budget, purchases and use of raw materials (mostly coffee beans) will total $5,800,000.The expected prime costs for one-pound bags of two of the company’s products are as follows:

 

Jamaican Colombian                                                                                           Jamaican      Columbian

Direct material .......................................................................... $2.90               $3.90

Direct labor ...........................................................................        .40                  .40

 

 

GSCC’s controller believes the traditional product-costing system may be providing misleading cost information. She has developed an analysis of the 20x5 budgeted manufacturing-overhead costs shown in the following chart

Activity Cost Driver Budgeted Activity Budgeted Cost

 

Activity                                   cost driver                   Budget activity                    Budgeted cost

Required:

1. Using GSCC’s current product-costing system: a. Determine the company’s predetermined overhead rate using direct-labor cost as the single cost driver. b. Determine the full product costs and selling prices of one pound of Jamaican coffee and one pound of Colombian coffee.

2. Develop a new product cost, using an activity-based costing approach, for one pound of Jamaican coffee and one pound of Colombian coffee.

3. What are the implications of the activity-based costing system with respect to:a. The use of direct labor as a basis for applying overhead to products? b. The use of the existing product-costing system as the basis for pricing?

bethesda mining company case solution in excel $ 20.00 USDAdd to Cart

Bethesda Mining is a midsized coal mining company with 20 mines located in Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Kentucky. The company operates deep mines as well as strip mines. Most of the coal mined is sold under contract, with excess production sold on the spot market.

The coal mining industry, especially high-sulfur coal operations such as Bethesda, has been hard-hit by environmental regulations. Recently, however, a combination of increased demand for coal and new pollution reduction technologies has led to an improved market demand for high-sulfur coal. Bethesda has just been approached by Mid-Ohio Electric Company with a request to supply coal for its electric generators for the next four years. Bethesda Mining does not have enough excess capacity at its existing mines to guarantee the contract. The company is considering opening a strip mine in Ohio on 5,000 acres of land purchased 10 years ago for $6 million. Based on a recent appraisal, the company feels it could receive $7 million on an after-tax basis if it sold the land today.

Strip mining is a process where the layers of topsoil above a coal vein are removed and the exposed coal is removed. Some time ago, the company would simply remove the coal and leave the land in an unusable condition. Changes in mining regulations now force a company to reclaim the land; that is, when the mining is completed, the land must be restored to near its original condition. The land can then be used for other purposes. Because it is currently operating at full capacity, Bethesda will need to purchase additional necessary equipment, which will cost $85 million. The equipment will be depreciated on a seven-year MACRS schedule. The contract runs for only four years. At that time the coal from the site will be entirely mined. The company feels that the equipment can be sold for 60 percent of its initial purchase price in four years.

The contract calls for the delivery of 500,000 tons of coal per year at a price of $95 per ton. Bethesda Mining feels that coal production will be 620,000 tons, 680,000 tons, 730,000 tons, and 590,000 tons, respectively, over the next four years.

E9-21 Trade in asset—two situations
Community Bank recently traded in office fixtures. Here are the facts:

Requirements

1. Record Community Bank’s trade-in of old fixtures for new ones.

2. Now let’s change one fact and see a different outcome. Community Bank feels
compelled to do business with Mountain Furniture, a bank customer, even
though the bank can get the fixtures elsewhere at a better price. Community
Bank is aware that the new fixtures’ market value is only $127,000. Now record
the trade-in.

E9-24 Acquisition of patent, amortization, and change in useful life
Miracle Printers (MP) manufactures printers. Assume that MP recently paid $600,000
for a patent on a new laser printer. Although it gives legal protection for 20 years, the
patent is expected to provide a competitive advantage for only eight years.

Requirements

1. Assuming the straight-line method of amortization, make journal entries to
record (a) the purchase of the patent and (b) amortization for year 1.

2. After using the patent for four years, MP learns at an industry trade show that
another company is designing a more efficient printer. On the basis of this new information, MP decides, starting with year 5, to amortize the remaining cost of
the patent over two remaining years, giving the patent a total useful life of six
years. Record amortization for year 5.

P9-28A Capitalized asset cost and first year depreciation, and identifying depreciation results that meet management objectives

On January 3, 2012, Trusty Delivery Service purchased a truck at a cost of $90,000.
Before placing the truck in service, Trusty spent $3,000 painting it, $1,500 replacing
tires, and $4,500 overhauling the engine. The truck should remain in service for
five years and have a residual value of $9,000.

The truck’s annual mileage is expected
to be 22,500 miles in each of the first four years and 10,000 miles in the fifth year—
100,000 miles in total. In deciding which depreciation method to use, Mikail
Johnson, the general manager, requests a depreciation schedule for each of the depreciation
methods (straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance).

Requirements

1. Prepare a depreciation schedule for each depreciation method, showing asset
cost, depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and asset book value.

2. Trusty prepares financial statements using the depreciation method that reports
the highest net income in the early years of asset use. For income tax purposes,
the company uses the depreciation method that minimizes income taxes in the
early years. Consider the first year that Trusty uses the truck. Identify the depreciation
methods that meet the general manager’s objectives, assuming the income
