As mentioned in the opening part of the Robatelli's Pizzeria case, there are now 53 locations throughout the greater Pittsburgh area. Each one of those restaurant locations employs a full-time store manager and varying numbers of kitchen staff, servers, and delivery staff. The kitchen staff, servers, and delivery staff vary between full-time and part-time status. There tend to be high rates of turnover, especially among the part-time staff. Robatelli's pays its employees on a weekly basis each Friday for the week ending on the previous Saturday. Employee paychecks include withholdings for federal taxes as well as state and local taxes applicable for the employee's residence. Employees may live in one of three states and over 25 municipalities that are included in the greater Pittsburgh regional area. All payroll accounting is handled by Robatelli's at its home office.

Each restaurant must also maintain various fixed assets in order to operate.Following is a general list of fixed assets for each store:

 Furniture and store fixtures, including tables, chairs, and built-in items such as shelving, counters, and booths

 Kitchen equipments, such as refrigerators, stoves, ovens, and dishwashing machines

 Computers Note that the number of each of these fixed assets maintained at each location varies, depending upon the size of the store. Also note that each member of the delivery staff uses his or her personal automobile (rather than a company-owned car) for customer deliveries.

In addition, the home office maintains the following types of fixed assets:

 Land and the office building

 Office furniture and fixtures

 Computers and other office equipment

 Telephone systems

Finally, fixed assets maintained at the commissary include the following:

 Fixtures, such as built-in cabinets and shelving

 Kitchen equipment

 Computers

 Delivery trucks

All fixed asset accounting is handled by Robatelli's at its home office.

Required:

a. Describe how you believe an efficient and effective payroll system should be organized at Robatelli's. Include details such as the answers to these questions:

(a) What types of payroll documentation should be prepared at the restaurant locations?

(b) How will the necessary information for payroll flow between restaurants and the home office?

(c) How should IT systems be used in the payroll processes?

The Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) was designed so that high-income taxpayers could avoid using tax loopholes to pay little to no income tax. AMT has not been adjusted for inflation so an increased number of middle-class taxpayersare having to pay AMT. What are your thoughts on AMT - should AMT be eliminated, is it necessary, should reform occur??? Please discuss your thoughts.

Sturdy has an opportunity to purchase frames for $115 each.

Additional Information

1. The manufacturing equipment, which originally cost $570,000, has a book value of $420,000, a remaining useful life of five years, and a zero salvage value. If the equipment is not used to produce bicycle frames, it can be leased for $73,000 per year.

2. Sturdy has the opportunity to purchase for $960,000 new manufacturing equipment that will have an expected useful life of five years and a salvage value of $77,500. This equipment will increase productivity substantially, reducing unit-level labor costs by 60 percent. Assume that Sturdy will continue to produce and sell 23,000 frames per year in the future.

3. If Sturdy outsources the frames, the company can eliminate 70 percent of the inventory holding costs.

Required

1. Determine the avoidable cost per unit of making the bike frames, assuming that Sturdy is considering the alternatives of making the product using the existing equipment or outsourcing the product to the independent contractor. Based on the quantitative data, should Sturdy outsource the bike frames?

2. Assuming that Sturdy is considering whether to replace the old equipment with the new equipment, determine the avoidable cost per unit to produce the bike frames using the new equipment and the avoidable cost per unit to produce the bike frames using the old equipment. Calculate the increase or decrease in the company's profit if the company uses new equipment.

3. Assuming that Sturdy is considering whether to either purchase the new equipment or outsource the bike frame, calculate.

The cash account for American Medical Co. at April 30 indicated a balance of $84,457. The bank statement indicated a balance of $127,190 on April 30. Comparing the bank statement and the accompanying canceled checks and memos with the records revealed the following reconciling items:

Sales Order Processing System

The customer sales order is received via phone or through the mail. Gus Grinwich, the sales clerk, receives the sales order and checks the customer’s credit record. Once Grinwich checks the customer’s credit record, he prepares the sales order. From this sales order, Grinwich prepares a customer copy, stock release, shipping notice, two copies of the invoice, ledger copy, packing slip, and the file copy. One of the invoice copies, the ledger copy, and the file copy go to the billing department. The other copy of the invoice and the shipping notice are sent to the shipping department. The stock release and the file copy are sent to the warehouse department.

In the warehouse department, Steve Rossini, the warehouse clerk, receives the stock release and Phil Denuto, the stocker, checks the shelves to pick the gloves for the sales order. Once the goods are taken off the shelf in the warehouse, the stock release is sent to the billing department. Sparky Littleton, the billing clerk, reconciles the invoice, ledger copy, and stock release to make sure that the amount of inventory taken from the shelves is the same as the amount listed in the invoice. Littleton bills the customer for the goods released from the warehouse department. Littleton prepares the sales journal and makes the journal voucher. The journal voucher is sent to the general ledger department. The stock release is sent to the inventory control. The invoice is then filed in the billing department’s file and the ledger copy is sent to the general ledger department.

The shipping department receives the invoice and the shipping notice. They send the goods to the carrier along with the invoice, the packing slip, and the two copies of the bill of lading. The invoice states the amount and quantity of goods that the customer requested in the sales order form. The shipping department files the shipping notice from the customer’s order.

Inventory control receives the stock release form from the billing department. With the stock release form, Bobby Higgins, the inventory clerk, updates the inventory subsidiary ledger relating to the goods that have been released from the warehouse. The ledger copy arrives at the general ledger department from the billing department. Dave Fielder, the general ledger clerk, uses the ledger copy to update the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger. Periodically, Fielder prepares the accounts receivable summary and reconciles it with the journal voucher from the inventory subsidiary ledger and the journal voucher produced by the sales journal in the billing department in order to update the general ledger. These three forms are then filed by Fielder.

The Cash Receipts System

The cash receipts system starts when the wholesalers send back the remittance advice with their payment. This allows Craig Nelson, the mail room clerk, to collect the payment from the customer and process the cash receipt. Nelson then records the cash receipts in the cash receipts journal. Nelson prepares the deposit slips for the funds to be

deposited into the bank along with the checks. The remittance advice is sent to the general ledger department to update the accounts receivable records and is then filed in the billing department. Finally, Nelson prepares the cash receipt journal, out of which comes a journal voucher that is sent to the general ledger department.

Luis Gonzalez, the general ledger clerk, prepares the account summary and journal voucher, which is used to update the general ledger. The account summary and journal voucher is put into the files for record. Gonzalez uses the remittance advice copy sent from the mail room, the deposit slip copy from the bank, and the journal voucher from the account summary to reconcile the deposit slips. He then reconciles the deposit slips from the bank with the totals from the accounts receivable and mail room.

1. Analyze the current system and identify specific internal control problems.

Anna and Bess share partnership profits and losses at 60% and 40%, respectively. The partners agree to admit Cal into the partnership for a 50% interest in capital and earnings. Capital accounts immediately before the admission of Cal are: Anna (60%) $ 300,000 Bess (40%) 300,000 Total $ 600,000

Part 1: Prepare the journal entry(s) for the admission of Cal to the partnership, assuming Cal invested $400,000 for the ownership interest and that this is a fair price for that share of the partnership to be acquired. Cal paid the money directly to Anna and to Bess for 50% of each of their respective capital interests. The partnership records goodwill.

Part 2: Prepare the journal entry(s) for the admission of Cal to the partnership, assuming Cal invested $500,000 for the ownership interest. Cal paid the money to the partnership for a 50% interest in capital and earnings. Assume the valuation is based on the capital of the current partnership, which is fairly valued. The partnership records goodwill.

Part 3: Prepare the journal entry(s) for the admission of Cal to the partnership, assuming Cal invested $700,000 for the ownership interest and that this is a fair price for that share of the partnership to be acquired. Cal paid the money to the partnership for a 50% interest in capital and earnings. The partnership records goodwill.

Boston Railroad decided to use the high-low method and operating data from the past six months to estimate the fixed and variable components of transportation costs. The activity base used by Boston Railroad is a measure of railroad operating activity, termed "gross-ton miles," which is the total number of tons multiplied by the miles moved. Transportation Costs Gross-Ton Miles January $530,900 224,000 February 591,900 250,000 March 418,300 162,000 April 567,500 242,000 May 476,000 195,000 June 610,200 263,000 Determine the variable cost per gross-ton mile and the total fixed cost. Variable cost (Round to two decimal places.) $ per gross-ton mile Total fixed cost $

Problem 4-14 Compute and Use Activity Rates to Determine the Costs of Serving Customers [LO4-2, LO4-3, LO4-4]

Gino’s Restaurant is a popular restaurant in Boston, Massachusetts. The owner of the restaurant has been trying to better understand costs at the restaurant and has hired a student intern to conduct an activity-based costing study. The intern, in consultation with the owner, identified the following major activities:

A group of diners who ask to sit at the same table is counted as a party. Some costs, such as the costs of cleaning linen, are the same whether one person is at a table or the table is full. Other costs, such as washing dishes, depend on the number of diners served.

Data concerning these activities are shown below:

Prior to the activity-based costing study, the owner knew very little about the costs of the restaurant. She knew that the total cost for the month was $313,600 and that 32,000 diners had been served. Therefore, the average cost per diner was $9.80 ($313,600 ÷ 32,000 diners = $9.80 per diner).

Required:

1. Compute the activity rates for each of the three activities.

2. According to the activity-based costing system, what is the total cost of serving each of the following parties of diners?

a. A party of four diners who order three drinks in total.

b. A party of two diners who do not order any drinks.

c. A lone diner who orders two drinks.

3. Convert the total costs you computed in part (2) above to costs per diner. In other words, what is the average cost per diner for serving each of the following parties?

a. A party of four diners who order three drinks in total.

b. A party of two diners who do not order any drinks.

c. A lone diner who orders two drinks.

At the beginning, the accountant for Limited industries estimated that total overhead would be $80,000. Overhead is allocated to jobs on the basis of direct labour cost. Direct labour was budgeted to cost $200,000 this period. During the period, only three jobs were worked on. The following summarizes the direct materials and labour costs for each:

Job 12 was finished and sold, Job 123 was finished but is waiting to be sold, and Job 1234 is still in process. Actual overhead for the period was $82,000.

A.  Calculate the cost of each job completed.

Job 12 - ?

Job 123 - ?

Job 1234 - ?

B.  Calculate the cost of goods sold.

C.  Calculate the amount of overapplied or underapplied overhead that will be prorated to the ending balances in work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold.

Sales Forecast and Flexible Budget

Olympus, Inc., manufactures three models of mattresses: the Sleepeze, the Plushette, and the Ultima. Forecast sales for next year are 15,540 for the Sleepeze, 12,140 for the Plushette, and 4,570 for the Ultima. Gene Dixon, vice president of sales, has provided the following information:

1. Salaries for his office (including himself at $67,550, a marketing research assistant at $40,150, and an administrative assistant at $23,400) are budgeted for $131,100 next year.
2. Depreciation on the offices and equipment is $17,050 per year.
3. Office supplies and other expenses total $23,800 per year.
4. Advertising has been steady at $21,650 per year. However, the Ultima is a new product and will require extensive advertising to educate consumers on the unique features of this high-end mattress. Gene believes the company should spend 15 percent of first-year Ultima sales for a print and television campaign.
5. Commissions on the Sleepeze and Plushette lines are 5 percent of sales. These commissions are paid to independent jobbers who sell the mattresses to retail stores.
6. Last year, shipping for the Sleepeze and Plushette lines averaged $55 per unit sold. Gene expects the Ultima line to ship for $70 per unit sold since this model features a larger mattress.

Required:

1. Suppose that Gene is considering three sales scenarios as follows:

Prepare a revenue budget for the Sales Division for the coming year for each scenario.
