Come-Clean Corporation produces a variety of cleaning compounds and solutions for both industrial and household use. While most of its products are processed independently, a few are related, such as the company’s Grit 337 and its Sparkle silver polish.

Grit 337 is a coarse cleaning powder with many industrial uses. It costs $1.60 a pound to make, and it has a selling price of $7.80 a pound. A small portion of the annual production of Grit 337 is retained in the factory for further processing. It is combined with several other ingredients to form a paste that is marketed as Sparkle silver polish. The silver polish sells for $5.00 per jar.

This further processing requires one-fourth pound of Grit 337 per jar of silver polish. The additional direct variable costs involved in the processing of a jar of silver polish are:

Overhead costs associated with processing the silver polish are:

The production supervisor has no duties other than to oversee production of the silver polish. The mixing equipment is special-purpose equipment acquired specifically to produce the silver polish. It can produce up to 2,500 jars of polish per month. Its resale value is negligible and it does not wear out through use.

Advertising costs for the silver polish total $2,700 per month. Variable selling costs associated with the silver polish are 5% of sales.

Due to a recent decline in the demand for silver polish, the company is wondering whether its continued production is advisable. The sales manager feels that it would be more profitable to sell all of the Grit 337 as a cleaning powder.

Required:

1. How much incremental revenue does the company earn per jar of polish by further processing Grit 337 rather than selling it as a cleaning powder? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

2. How much incremental contribution margin does the company earn per jar of polish by further processing Grit 337 rather than selling it as a cleaning powder? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

3. How many jars of silver polish must be sold each month to exactly offset the avoidable fixed costs incurred to produce and sell the polish? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

4. If the company sells 8,700 jars of polish, what is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of choosing to further process Grit 337 rather than selling is as a cleaning powder? (Enter any "disadvantages" as a negative value. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

5. If the company sells 11,000 jars of polish, what is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of choosing to further process Grit 337 rather than selling is as a cleaning powder? (Enter any "disadvantages" as a negative value. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

Outdoor Luggage, Inc., makes high-end hard-sided luggage for sports equipment. Data concerning three of the company’s most popular models appear below.

Required:

2. Which product offers the most profitable use of the plastic injection molding machine?

3. If we assume that a severe shortage of plastic pellets has required the company to cut back its production so much that its new constraint has become the total available pounds of plastic pellets, how much contribution margin per pound of the constrained resource is earned by each product?

4. Which product offers the most profitable use of the plastic pellets?

5. Which product has the largest contribution margin per unit?

Brown County operates a solid waste landfill for the citizens of the county. The following events occurred during the county’s fiscal year ended September 30.

1. The county paid interest costs of $6,879,000; of this amount, $222,000 was required to be capitalized to construction work in progress. Amortization of bond premiums was $173,400.
2. The county is self-insured through an internal service fund for workers’ compensation, automotive, and general liability insurance. The Solid Waste Enterprise Fund participates in the county-run program, and the amount paid for the year was $1,109,800.
3. The county’s recorded value of investments as of September 30 was $134,586,000. Fair market value was determined to be $138,689,100.
4. The fund bills franchise haulers, and at September 30, the balance in Accounts Receivable was $4,866,100. The Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts showed a balance of $138,900, but an aging of accounts determined that the balance should be $185,500.
5. The county’s landfill has a total space of 55,600 cubic yards (cy). The county has projected that future closure and postclosure care costs will be $60,608,000. The county’s estimate of cubic yards consumed as of September 30 is 13,900 cy. The balance in the liability account for closure and postclosure costs as of September 30 of the previous year was $14,042,300. (Hint: The current liability account balance should be subtracted from the total proportion of landfill cubic yards used to arrive at the current year’s expense.)

Required

a. Prepare general journal entries to record the Solid Waste Disposal Fund’s activities.

Can you please create me an income statement and balance sheet as the example below. Thank you

Think about a business, movie, story, etc. that interests you and put together an Income Statement and Balance sheet for that entity. As an example I used The Three Bears from Goldilocks and .. Since we do not know what business the Bears were in, I'm going with Salmon Farming. If you remember the story, Goldilocks breaks into the bears' home, eats porridge, breaks the chair and sleeps in the beds.

Posts should include at least one revenue, and 2 each of expenses, assets, and liabilities. Don’t worry about dates and amounts unless they are relevant to your entity.

Define present value vs future value.  In what scenarios would each method be used?

The Elberta Fruit Farm of Ontario always has hired transient workers to pick its annual cherry crop. Janessa Wright, the farm manager, just received information on a cherry picking machine that is being purchased by many fruit farms. The machine is a motorized device that shakes the cherry tree, causing the cherries to fall onto plastic tarps that funnel the cherries into bins. Ms. Wright has gathered the following information to decide whether a cherry picker would be a profitable investment for the Elberta Fruit Farm:

1. Currently, the farm is paying an average of $230,000 per year to transient workers to pick the cherries.
2. The cherry picker would cost $620,000. It would be depreciated using the straight-line method and it would have no salvage value at the end of its 8-year useful life.
3. Annual out-of-pocket costs associated with the cherry picker would be: cost of an operator and an assistant, $91,000; insurance, $5,000; fuel, $13,000; and a maintenance contract, $16,000.
