Sheridan Company began using dollar-value LIFO for costing its inventory two years ago. The ending inventory for the past two years in end-of-year dollars was $292000 and $459000 and the year-end price indices were 1.0 and 1.1, respectively. Assuming the current inventory at end of year prices equals $647000 and the index for the current year is 1.15, what is the ending inventory using dollar-value LIFO? (Round intermediate calculations and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 10,000.)

Pratt Company acquired all of Spider, Inc.’s outstanding shares on December 31, 2018, for $515,300 cash. Pratt will operate Spider as a wholly owned subsidiary with a separate legal and accounting identity. Although many of Spider’s book values approximate fair values, several of its accounts have fair values that differ from book values. In addition, Spider has internally developed assets that remain unrecorded on its books. In deriving the acquisition price, Pratt assessed Spider’s fair and book value differences as follows:

Paul Swanson has an opportunity to acquire a franchise from The Yogurt Place, Inc., to dispense frozen yogurt products under The Yogurt Place name. Mr. Swanson has assembled the following information relating to the franchise:

1. A suitable location in a large shopping mall can be rented for $5,100 per month.
2. Remodeling and necessary equipment would cost $414,000. The equipment would have a 15-year life and a $27,600 salvage value. Straight-line depreciation would be used, and the salvage value would be considered in computing depreciation.
3. Based on similar outlets elsewhere, Mr. Swanson estimates that sales would total $540,000 per year. Ingredients would cost 20% of sales.
4. Operating costs would include $94,000 per year for salaries, $5,900 per year for insurance, and $51,000 per year for utilities. In addition, Mr. Swanson would have to pay a commission to The Yogurt Place, Inc., of 16.0% of sales.

Required:

1. Prepare a contribution format income statement that shows the expected net operating income each year from the franchise outlet.

2-a. Compute the simple rate of return promised by the outlet.

2-b. If Mr. Swanson requires a simple rate of return of at least 19%, should he acquire the franchise?

3-a. Compute the payback period on the outlet.

3-b. If Mr. Swanson wants a payback of two years or less, will he acquire the franchise?

Target Costing

Laser Impressions, Inc., manufactures color laser printers. Model J20 presently sells for $575 and has a total product cost of $460, as follows:

It is estimated that the competitive selling price for color laser printers of this type will drop to $550 next year. Laser Impressions has established a target cost to maintain its historical markup percentage on product cost. Engineers have provided the following cost reduction ideas:

1. Purchase a plastic printer cover with snap-on assembly, rather than with screws. This will reduce the amount of direct labor by 9 minutes per unit.
2. Add an inspection step that will add six minutes per unit of direct labor but reduce the materials cost by $12 per unit.
3. Decrease the cycle time of the injection molding machine from four minutes to three minutes per part. Thirty percent of the direct labor and 45% of the factory overhead are related to running injection molding machines.

The direct labor rate is $38 per hour.

a. Determine the target cost for Model J20 assuming that the historical markup on product cost and selling price is maintained. Round your final answer to two decimal places.
$

b. Determine the required cost reduction. Enter as a positive number. Round your final answer to two decimal places.
$

c. Evaluate the three engineering improvements together to determine if the required cost reduction (drift) can be achieved. Enter all amounts as positive numbers. Do not round interim calculations but round your final answers to two decimal places.
