Zimmerman Inc. manufactures a single product, CXW. Zimmerman
uses budgets
and standards in its planning and control functions. Zimmerman
makes use of its
standards in order to derive their budgeted cost per unit. For
example, Exhibit A
provides information on the budgeted variable costs per unit. When
determining
direct material costs for the planning budget income statement, the
$12 budgeted
material cost per unit of CXW would be used in the calculation.
Exhibit A
Budgeted
(Standard)
Variable Costs Per
Unit of CXW
Raw material: 3 pounds at $4 per pound $12
Direct labor: 0.75 direct labor hours at $20 per hour 15
Variable overhead: 0.75 direct labor hours at $12 per hour 9
Total variable budgeted (standard) cost per CXW $36
__________________________________________________________________
The standards for fixed manufacturing overhead costs are: 0.75
direct labor hours
at $8 per hour. The standard fixed manufacturing overhead cost per
hour is
calculated based on a denominator level of activity of 30,000
direct labor hours.
The planning budget income statement is based on the expectation of
selling
40,000 units of CXW. The budgeted sales price is $65 per unit, and
total budgeted
fixed selling and administrative costs are $500,000. There are no
variable selling
and administrative costs in this firm.
The company actually produced and sold 36,000 units this year. The
company
never has a beginning or ending raw materials inventory, because it
uses all raw
materials purchased. Also, the company never has a beginning or
ending finished
goods inventory. Everything produced in the year is sold in that
same year.

Bessrawl Corporation is a U.S.-based company that prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The company reported income in 2014 of $1,000,000 and stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2014, of $8,000,000. The CFO of Bessrawl has learned that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is considering requiring U.S. companies to use IFRS in preparing consolidated financial statements. The company wishes to determine the impact that a switch to IFRS would have on its financial statements and has engaged you to prepare a reconciliation of income and stockholders’ equity from U.S. GAAP to IFRS. You have identified the following four areas in which Bessrawl’s accounting principles based on U.S. GAAP differ from IFRS.
1)Inventory
2)Property, plant, and equipment
3)Intangible assets
4)Research and development costs.
Bessrawl provides the following information with respect to each of these accounting differences.
Inventory
At year-end 2014, inventory had a historical cost of $250,000, a replacement cost of $180,000, a net realizable value of $190,000, and a normal profit margin of 20 percent.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
The company acquired a building at the beginning of 2013 at a cost of $2,750,000. The building has an estimated useful life of 25 years, an estimated residual value of $250,000, and is being depreciated on a straight-line basis. At the beginning of 2014, the building was appraised and determined to have a fair value of $3,250,000. There is no change in estimated useful life or residual value. In a switch to IFRS, the company would use the revaluation model in IAS 16 to determine the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment subsequent to acquisition.
Intangible Assets
As part of a business combination in 2011, the company acquired a brand with a fair value of $40,000. The brand is classified as an intangible asset with an in- definite life. At year-end 2014, the brand is determined to have a selling price of $35,000 with zero cost to sell. Expected future cash flows from continued use of the brand are $42,000, and the present value of the expected future cash flows is $34,000.
Research and Development Costs
The company incurred research and development costs of $200,000 in 2014. Of this amount, 40 percent related to development activities subsequent to the point at which criteria had been met indicating that an intangible asset existed. As of the end of the 2014, development of the new product had not been completed.
Required
Prepare a reconciliation schedule to convert 2014 income and December 31, 2014, stockholders’ equity from a U.S. GAAP basis to IFRS. Ignore income taxes.
Prepare a note to explain each adjustment made in the reconciliation schedule.

Potz and Pans, a small gift shop, has current assets of $45,000 (including inventory valued at $30,000) and $9,000 in current liabilities. Wannabees, a specialty clothing store has current assets of $150,000 (including inventory valued at $125,000) and $85,000 in current liabilities. Both business have applied for loans. Click the calculators box on the toolbar at bankrate.com then click on Small Business to answer the following questions.
1) Calculate and present the current ratio for each company. Which company is more likely to get the loan? Why?
2) The acid test ratio subtracts the value of the firm's inventory from its total current assets. Because inventory is often difficult to sell, this ratio is considered an even more reliable measure of a business's ability to repay loans than the current ration. Calculate and present the acid test ratio for each business and decide whether you would give either the loan. Why or why not for each?

Job Cost Sheet
Remnant Carpet Company sells and installs commercial carpeting for office buildings. Remnant Carpet Company uses a job order cost system. When a prospective customer asks for a price quote on a job, the estimated cost data are inserted on an unnumbered job cost sheet. If the offer is accepted, a number is assigned to the job, and the costs incurred are recorded in the usual manner on the job cost sheet. After the job is completed, reasons for the variances between the estimated and actual costs are noted on the sheet. The data are then available to management in evaluating the efficiency of operations and in preparing quotes on future jobs. On October 1, Remnant Carpet Company gave Jackson Consulting an estimate of $2,632 to carpet the consulting firm’s newly leased office. The estimate was based on the following data:
Estimated direct materials: | |
30 meters at $30 per meter | $ 900 |

Case 9-31 Master Budget with Supporting Schedules [LO9-2, LO9-4, LO9-8, LO9-9, LO9-10]
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 comprehensive budgets for the upcoming second quarter in order to show management the benefits that can be gained from an integrated budgeting program. 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—$18 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) | 22,800 | June (budget) | 52,800 |
February (actual) | 28,800 | July (budget) | 32,800 |
March (actual) | 42,800 | August (budget) | 30,800 |
April (budget) | 67,800 | September (budget) | 27,800 |
May (budget) | 102,800 | ||
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 $5.4 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, with no discount, and payable within 15 days. The company has found, however, that 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 | $ | 340,000 | |
Rent | $ | 32,000 | |
Salaries | $ | 134,000 | |
Utilities | $ | 14,000 | |
Insurance | $ | 4,400 | |
Depreciation | $ | 28,000 | |
Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year.
The company plans to purchase $23,000 in new equipment during May and $54,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $25,500 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.
A listing of the company’s ledger accounts as of March 31 is given below:
Assets | ||
Cash | $ | 88,000 |
Accounts receivable ($51,840 February sales;$616,320 March sales) | 668,160 | |
Inventory | 146,448 | |
Prepaid insurance | 28,000 | |

Total assets | $ | 2,020,608 |
Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity | ||
Accounts payable | $ | 114,000 |
Dividends payable | 25,500 | |
Common stock | 1,080,000 | |
Retained earnings | 801,108 | |
Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity | $ | 2,020,608 |
The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $64,000. 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 $64,000 in cash.
REQUIRED:
2. A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. (Cash deficiency, repayments and interest should be indicated by a minus sign.)
|
3. A budgeted income statement for the three-month period ending June 30. Use the contribution approach.
|
4. A budgeted balance sheet as of June 30.
