  1. Cost of Goods Sold Budget

    Magnolia Candle Inc. budgeted production of 74,200 candles in 20Y4. Wax is required to produce a candle. Assume that eight ounces (one-half of a pound) of wax is required for each candle. The estimated January 1, 20Y4, wax inventory is 2,500 pounds. The desired December 31, 20Y4, wax inventory is 2,100 pounds. Candle wax costs $4.10 per pound.

    Each candle requires molding. Assume that 12 minutes are required to mold each candle. Molding labor costs $14.00 per hour.

    Prepare a cost of goods sold budget for Magnolia Candle Inc., using the information above. Assume that the estimated inventories on January 1, 20Y4, for finished goods and work in process were $9,800 and $3,600, respectively. Also assume that the desired inventories on December 31, 20Y4, for finished goods and work in process were $12,900 and $3,500, respectively. Factory overhead was budgeted at $109,600. Round your interim calculations to nearest cent, if required.

Accounting and Finance in International Business

The opening case explores four large pharmaceutical companies and their role in the rising costs of healthcare particularly in the United States. The four companies, Pfizer, Novartis, Bayer, and GlaxoSmithKline, all date back to the mid-1800s and have annual revenues of at least $39 billion and assets of at least $77 billion. Taken together, the four companies employ around 400,000 people and serve customers in 195 countries. Discussion of the case can begin with the following question:

Why have companies like Pfizer, Novartis, Bayer, and GlaxoSmithKline recently come under so much fire in the United States? Why are prescription drug prices so high?

Garcia Home Improvement Company installs replacement siding, windows, and louvred glass doors for single-family homes and condominium complexes in northern New Jersey and southern New York. The company is in the process of preparing its annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2019, and Jim Alcide, a controller for Garcia, has gathered the following data concerning inventory.

At May 31, 2019, the balance in Garcia’s Raw Material Inventory account was $268,000

and the Allowance to Reduce Inventory to NRV had a credit balance of $10,700

Alcide summarized the relevant inventory cost and market data on May 31, 2019, in the schedule below.

Alcide assigned Patricia Devereaux, an intern from a local college, the task of calculating the amount that should appear on Garcia’s May 31, 2019, financial statements for inventory under the lower-of-cost-or-NRV rule as applied to each item in inventory. Devereaux expressed concern over departing from the cost principle.
