Analyze why they have used this way to answer the below question (The question is already answered I need analysis for the answer like a paragraph for each case)

Example: On 1/2/08, See-Saw Systems (S3) purchased a patent valued at €8 million; it had a useful life of 8 years with zero residual value, and S3 used straight-line depreciation. On 1/2/10, the fair value of the patent had decreased to €4.5 million. On 1/2/12, the fair value had increased to €6 million, and on 1/2/14, the fair value had dropped to €1 million. Assuming S3 uses the revaluation model, determine how the gains and losses are reported.

Straight-line amortization is €8 million ÷ 8 years = €1 million per year, so the book value on 1/2/10 is:

€8 million − 2(€1 million) = €6 million

The revaluation to €4.5 million results in a €1.5 million loss, which appears on S3’s income statement.

Straight-line amortization is now €4.5 million ÷ 6 years = €750,000 per year. On 1/2/12 the book value is:

€4.5 million − 2(€750,000) = €3 million

The revaluation to €6 million results in a €3 million gain. Because S3 had a previous €1.5 million loss on its income statement, the first €1.5 million of the gain is shown on the income statement to reverse the loss; the remaining €1.5 million gain goes to the Revaluation Surplus account on S3’s balance sheet.

Straight-line amortization is now €6 million ÷ 4 years = €1.5 million per year.

On 1/2/14 the book value is:

€6 million − 2(€1.5 million) = €3 million

The revaluation to €1 million results in a €2 million loss. Because S3 had a previous €1.5 million gain in the Revaluation Surplus account in equity, the first €1.5 million of the loss reduces the Revaluation Surplus account to zero. The remaining €500,000 million loss is shown on S3’s income statement.

EX24-05

Service Department Charges

In divisional income statements prepared for LeFevre Company, the Payroll Department costs are charged back to user divisions on the basis of the number of payroll distributions, and the Purchasing Department costs are charged back on the basis of the number of purchase requisitions. The Payroll Department had expenses of $58,380, and the Purchasing Department had expenses of $22,000 for the year. The following annual data for Residential, Commercial, and Government Contract divisions were obtained from corporate records:

Residential Commercial Government

b. Using the activity base information in (a), determine the annual amount of payroll and purchasing costs charged back to the Residential, Commercial, and Government Contract divisions from payroll and purchasing services. If required, round your answers to two decimal places. Do not round your interim calculations, round your answers to two decimal places, if required.

Problem 6-19 Break-Even Analysis; Pricing [LO6-1, LO6-4, LO6-5] Minden Company introduced a new product last year for which it is trying to find an optimal selling price. Marketing studies suggest that the company can increase sales by 5,000 units for each $2 reduction in the selling price. The company’s present selling price is $96 per unit, and variable expenses are $66 per unit. Fixed expenses are $832,200 per year. The present annual sales volume (at the $96 selling price) is 25,300 units. Required: 1. What is the present yearly net operating income or loss? 2. What is the present break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales? 3. Assuming that the marketing studies are correct, what is the maximum annual profit that the company can earn? At how many units and at what selling price per unit would the company generate this profit? 4. What would be the break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales using the selling price you determined in (3) above (e.g., the selling price at the level of maximum profits)?

The Phone Company has the following costs of producing and selling a cell phone when it produces and sells 100,000 cell phones per month: Per unit manufacturing cost Direct materials $60.00 Direct labor 10.00 Variable manufacturing overhead cost 35.00 Fixed manufacturing overhead cost 20.00 Per unit selling cost Variable 25.00 Fixed 10.00 Note that ‘100,000’ is the denominator used to calculate fixed costs per unit. Total fixed costs do not change regardless of production/sales level. The selling price of a cell phone is $250, unless otherwise stated in the questions below. Each situation below is independent of the other situations. That is, when you answer one question, assume that the situations described in other questions have not occurred. When you are considering opportunities for increased sales, assume that Phone Company has enough manufacturing capacity to make these sales without incurring additional fixed costs (i.e., it has excess capacity). S

The Phone Company has received an offer by a contract supplier to make and ship the Phone Company’s cell phone (100,000 units) directly to the Phone Company’s customers. The Phone Company will continue to do some product design and marketing but will no longer manufacture the phones itself. If the Phone Company accepts this offer, its variable manufacturing costs would be $0 and its fixed manufacturing cost would be reduced by 75% of its current level. In addition, its variable selling cost would decrease by one-third and its fixed selling cost would not change. How much per cell phone could the Phone Company pay the contract supplier if it wants to maintain its present level of operating income?
