You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare a master budget for the upcoming second quarter. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below. The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price—$10 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings): January (actual) 20,000 June (budget) 50,000 February (actual) 26,000 July (budget) 30,000 March (actual) 40,000 August (budget) 28,000 April (budget) 65,000 September (budget) 25,000 May (budget) 100,000 The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Mother’s Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month. Suppliers are paid $4 for a pair of earrings. One-half of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit. Only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible. Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below: Variable: Sales commissions 4 % of sales Fixed: Advertising $ 200,000 Rent $ 18,000 Salaries $ 106,000 Utilities $ 7,000 Insurance $ 3,000 Depreciation $ 14,000 Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year. The company plans to purchase $16,000 in new equipment during May and $40,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $15,000 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter. The company’s balance sheet as of March 31 is given below: Assets Cash $ 74,000 Accounts receivable ($26,000 February sales; $320,000 March sales) 346,000 Inventory 104,000 Prepaid insurance 21,000 Property and equipment (net) 950,000 Total assets $ 1,495,000 Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity Accounts payable $ 100,000 Dividends payable 15,000 Common stock 800,000 Retained earnings 580,000 Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity $ 1,495,000 The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $50,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month. The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $50,000 in cash.

(I already answered the first required questions 1A-D, just need Required 2-4)

2. A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. Determine any borrowing that would be needed to maintain the minimum cash balance of $50,000.

3. A budgeted income statement for the three-month period ending June 30. Use the contribution approach.

B. Explain the importance of distinguishing between variable and fixed costs.

C. Prepare a budgeted income statement, assuming 600 units to be produced and sold, a per unit selling price of $85, an income tax rate of 28% and the following information.

1. Cost of goods sold of $35 per unit
2. Labor = $400/month
   • One part-time employee will be hired to take care of packaging and shipping. This employee will be paid $10 per hour. He or she is estimated to work 40 hours total per month.
3. Advertising fees = $3,000
4. Bank fees = $200

2. Budget Preparation: The Lees believe that production and sales could double after being on Shark Tank which is scheduled in December of 20XY. They want to be prepared for this. Based on the budgeted income statement calculated above for 20XY, create a new budgeted income for 20XZ assuming that the production and sales is double the level of 20XY.

In December 2016, Learer Company’s manager estimated next year’s total direct labor cost assuming 40 persons working an average of 2,000 hours each at an average wage rate of $30 per hour. The manager also estimated the following manufacturing overhead costs for 2017.

Indirect labor $ 340,200 Factory supervision 110,000 Rent on factory building 101,000 Factory utilities 107,000 Factory insurance expired 87,000 Depreciation—Factory equipment 473,000 Repairs expense—Factory equipment 79,000 Factory supplies used 87,800 Miscellaneous production costs 55,000 Total estimated overhead costs $ 1,440,000 At the end of 2017, records show the company incurred $1,599,000 of actual overhead costs. It completed and sold five jobs with the following direct labor costs: Job 201, $623,000; Job 202, $582,000; Job 203, $317,000; Job 204, $735,000; and Job 205, $333,000. In addition, Job 206 is in process at the end of 2017 and had been charged $36,000 for direct labor. No jobs were in process at the end of 2016. The company’s predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor cost. Required 1-a. Determine the predetermined overhead rate for 2017. 1-b. Determine the total overhead cost applied to each of the six jobs during 2017. 1-c.

Determine the over- or underapplied overhead at year-end 2017. 2. Assuming that any over- or underapplied overhead is not material, prepare the adjusting entry to allocate any over- or underapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold at the end of 2017.

I found the discussion of self constructed assets to be interesting. These would be assets that the company itself builds instead of buys. The book talks about the difficulties in establishing the cost of the asset. How much of the company's overhead should be allocated to the project? How should interest incurred during construction be handled? There are a few options/opinions about how to handle overhead, which do you find to be best?

Colt Company reports pretax financial “income” of $143,000 in 2016. In addition to pretax income from continuing operations (of which revenues are $295,000), the following items are included in this pretax “income:” Problems Colt's taxable income totals $93,000 in 2016. The difference between the pretax financial income and the taxable income is due to the excess of tax depreciation over financial depreciation on assets used in continuing operations. At the beginning of 2016, Colt had a retained earnings balance of $310,000 and a deferred tax liability of $8,100. During 2016, Colt declared and paid dividends of $48,000. It is subject to tax rates of 15% on the first $50,000 of income and 30% on income in excess of $50,000. Based on proper interperiod tax allocation procedures, Colt has determined that its 2016 ending deferred tax liability is $14,100.

Required: Prepare a schedule for Colt to allocate the total 2016 income tax expense to the various components of pretax income.
Prepare Colt's income tax journal entry at the end of 2016. Prepare Colt's 2016 income statement.
