Taylor’s is a popular restaurant that offers customers a large dining room and comfortable bar area....

Taylor’s is a popular restaurant that offers customers a large dining room and comfortable bar area. Taylor Henry, the owner and manager of the restaurant, has seen the number of patrons increase steadily over the last two years and is considering whether and when she will have to expand its available capacity. The restaurant occupies a large home, and all the space in the building is now used for dining, the bar, and kitchen, but space is available on the property to expand the restaurant. The restaurant is open from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. each night (except Monday) and, on average, has 27 customers enter the bar and 52 enter the dining room during each of those hours. Taylor has noticed the trends over the last 2 years and expects that within about 4 years, the number of bar customers will increase by 50% and the dining customers will increase by 20%. Taylor is worried that the restaurant will be not be able to handle the increase and has asked you to study its capacity. In your study, you consider four areas of capacity: the parking lot (which has 82 spaces), the bar (56 seats), the dining room (102 seats), and the kitchen. The kitchen is well-staffed and can prepare any meal on the menu in an average of 12 minutes per meal. The kitchen, when fully staffed, is able to have up to 20 meals in preparation at a time, or 100 meals per hour (60 min/12 min × 20 meals).

To assess the capacity of the restaurant, you obtain the additional information: Diners typically come to the restaurant by car, with an average of 3 persons per car, while bar patrons arrive with an average of 1.5 persons per car. Diners, on average, occupy a table for an hour, while bar customers usually stay for an average of 2 hours. Due to fire regulations, all bar customers must be seated. The bar customer typically orders one drink per hour at an average of $9 per drink; the dining room customer orders a meal with an average price of $20; the restaurant’s cost per drink is $3, and the direct costs for meal preparation are $3.

Required: 1-a. Given the current number of customers per hour, what is the amount of excess capacity in the bar, dining room, parking lot, and kitchen? 1-b. Calculate the expected total throughput margin for the restaurant per day, and month (assuming a 26-day month). 2-a. Given the expected increase in the number of customers, determine if there is a constraint for any of the four areas of capacity. What is the amount of needed capacity for each constraint? 2-b. If there is a constraint, reduce the demand on the constraint so that the restaurant is at full capacity (assume some customers would have to be turned away). Calculate the expected total throughput margin for the restaurant per day, and month (assuming a 26-day month).

Marvel Parts, Inc., manufactures auto accessories. One of the company’s products is a set of seat covers that can be adjusted to fit nearly any small car. The company has a standard cost system in use for all of its products. According to the standards that have been set for the seat covers, the factory should work 990 hours each month to produce 1,980 sets of covers. The standard costs associated with this level of production are:

Total Per Set
of Covers
Direct materials $ 39,798 $ 20.10
Direct labor $ 5,940 3.00
Variable manufacturing overhead (based on direct labor-hours) $ 3,168 1.60
$ 24.70

During August, the factory worked only 1,000 direct labor-hours and produced 2,200 sets of covers. The following actual costs were recorded during the month:

Total Per Set
of Covers
Direct materials (7,400 yards) $ 40,700 $ 18.50
Direct labor $ 8,140 3.70
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3,960 1.80
$ 24.00

At standard, each set of covers should require 3.0 yards of material. All of the materials purchased during the month were used in production.

Required:

1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for August.

2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for August.

3. Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for August.

(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Blossom Corporation, a private corporation, was formed on July 1, 2018. On July 31, Guy Gélinas, the company’s president, prepared the following statement of financial position:

Blossom Corporation
Statement of Financial Position
July 31, 2018
Assets Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity
Cash $25,000 Accounts payable $46,000
Accounts receivable 52,000 Boat loan payable 40,000
Inventory 34,000 Common shares 47,000
Boat 26,000 Retained earnings 4,000
$137,000 $137,000


Guy admits that his knowledge of accounting is somewhat limited and is concerned that his statement of financial position might not be correct. He gives you the following additional information:

1. The boat actually belongs to Guy Gélinas, not to Blossom Corporation. However, because Guy thinks he might take customers out on the boat occasionally, he decided to list it as an asset of the company. To be consistent, he also included as a liability of the company the personal bank loan that he took out to buy the boat.
2. Included in the accounts receivable balance is $10,000 that Guy personally loaned to his brother 5 years ago. Guy included this in the receivables of Blossom Corporation so that he wouldn’t forget that his brother owes him money.
3. Guy’s statements didn’t balance. To make them balance, he adjusted the Common Shares account until assets equalled liabilities and shareholders’ equity.



Prepare a corrected statement of financial position. (Hint: To get the balance sheet to balance, adjust Common Shares). (List Assets in order of liquidity.)
