SecuriCorp operates a fleet of armored cars that make scheduled pickups and deliveries in the Los Angeles area. The company is implementing an activity-based costing system that has four activity cost pools: Travel, Pickup and Delivery, Customer Service, and Other. The activity measures are miles for the Travel cost pool, number of pickups and deliveries for the Pickup and Delivery cost pool, and number of customers for the Customer Service cost pool. The Other cost pool has no activity measure because it is an organization-sustaining activity. The following costs will be assigned using the activity-based costing system:

The distribution of resource consumption across the activity cost pools is as follows:

Required:

Complete the first stage allocations of costs to activity cost pools.

Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] OFC Company of Kansas City prints business forms and other specialty paper products, such as writing paper, envelopes, note cards, and greeting cards. Its Business Services division offers inventory management services and desktop delivery on request. The division uses an activity-based costing (ABC) system.

OFC Company has decided to implement a kaizen (continuous-improvement) program to enhance operational efficiency. After a careful study, management and employees agree that the firm will be able to reduce cost rates for batch-level activities by 2% and unit-level activities (other than Storage) by 1% per month during the first year of the program starting February 2019. The firm has decided to delay the implementation of the program for customer-sustaining and facility-level activities until 2020. The firm expects the amount of cost-driver usage in each of the next two months to be the same as those in January.

Required:

1. Identify unit-level and batch-level activities.

Mercer Asbestos Removal Company removes potentially toxic asbestos insulation and related products from buildings. There has been a long-simmering dispute between the company’s estimator and the work supervisors. The on-site supervisors claim that the estimators do not adequately distinguish between routine work such as removal of asbestos insulation around heating pipes in older homes and nonroutine work such as removing asbestos-contaminated ceiling plaster in industrial buildings. The on-site supervisors believe that nonroutine work is far more expensive than routine work and should bear higher customer charges. The estimator sums up his position in this way: “My job is to measure the area to be cleared of asbestos. As directed by top management, I simply multiply the square footage by $3.20 to determine the bid price. Since our average cost is only $2.81 per square foot, that leaves enough cushion to take care of the additional costs of nonroutine work that shows up. Besides, it is difficult to know what is routine or not routine until you actually start tearing things apart.”

To shed light on this controversy, the company initiated an activity-based costing study of all of its costs. Data from the activity-based costing system follow:

Note: The 100 nonroutine jobs are included in the total of 400 jobs. Both nonroutine jobs and routine jobs require estimating and setup.

Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activities

Required:

1. Perform the first-stage allocation of costs to the activity cost pools.

2. Compute the activity rates for the activity cost pools.

3. Using the activity rates you have computed, determine the total cost and the average cost per thousand square feet of each of the following jobs according to the activity-based costing system. (Round the "Average cost" to 2 decimal places.)

a. A routine 1,000-square-foot asbestos removal job.

b. A routine 2,000-square-foot asbestos removal job.

c. A nonroutine 2,000-square-foot asbestos removal job.

5. On December 1, 2018, Folks Wagon Company adopted a stock-option plan that granted options

to key executives to purchase 50,000 shares of the company’s $10 par value common stock. The

options were granted on January 1, 2019, and were exercisable 3 years after the date of grant if the

grantee was still an employee of the company. The options expired 5 years from the date of grant.

The option price was set at $35, and the fair value option-pricing model determines the total

compensation expense to be $450,000.

All of the options were exercised during the year 2022: 20,000 on February 23 when the market

price was $46, and 30,000 on August 8 when the market price was $85 a share.

a. Prepare the journal entries relating to the stock option plan for the years 2019, 2020, and 2021.

Assume that the employee performs services equally in 2019, 2020, and 2021.

b. Prepare the journal entries that record the two events of exercising the options in 2022.

Prepare an income statement for the year 2017 starting with income from continuing operations before taxes. Compute earnings per share as it should be shown on the face of the income statement. Common shares outstanding for the year are 129,730 shares. (Assume a tax rate of 30% on all items, unless indicated otherwise.) (Round earnings per share to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.48 and all other answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.)

impco, a retailer, makes both cash and credit sales (i.e., sales on open account). Information regarding budgeted sales for the last quarter of the year is as follows: October November December Cash sales $ 140,000 $ 115,000 $ 105,000 Credit sales 140,000 138,000 115,500 Total $ 280,000 $ 253,000 $ 220,500 Past experience shows that 5% of credit sales are uncollectible. Of the credit sales that are collectible, 60% are collected in the month of sale; the remaining 40% are collected in the month following the month of sale. Customers are granted a 1.5% discount for payment within 10 days of billing. Approximately 75% of collectible credit sales take advantage of the cash discount. Inventory purchases each month are 100% of the cost of the following month’s projected sales. (The gross profit rate for Timpco is approximately 30%.) All merchandise purchases are made on credit, with 20% paid in the month of purchase and the remainder paid in the following month. No cash discounts for early payment are in effect. Required: 1. Calculate the budgeted total cash receipts for November and December. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.) 2. Calculate budgeted cash disbursements for November and December (budgeted total sales for January of the coming year equals $205,000).
