The business manufactures custom patios made of concrete, brick, fiberglass, and lumber- depending upon customer preference. The company's fiscal year is the calendar year. At the beginning of July, selected balances were as follows:

Direct Materials Inventory, July 1 $4200
Work-In-Process Inventory, July 1 5540*
Manufacturing Overhead Applied to Date 32640
Actual Manufacturing Overhead to Date 31650

*Details for Work in Process

Job 85 Job 86 Job 87 Total
Direct Materials $600 800 900
Direct Labor 320 540 580
Manufacturing Overhead 400 675 725
= 1320 + 2015 + 2205 = 5540

(the last row are the separate columns added together and then totaled at the end).

During July, total direct materials purchased were $4900. Overhead costs incurred were $3800. Direct materials and direct labor used were as follows:

Materials Requested Amounts Labor Time Ticket Amounts
Job 85 $1100 $840
Job 86 500 360
Job 87 1300 1200
Job 88 2000 800

The Company uses conventional overhead application with overhead charged to jobs at the rate of $1.25 per dollar of direct labor cost. The patios for Jobs 85 and 87 were completed during July and sold at cost plus a 30 percent markup.

Prepare an Excel Spreadsheet that determines the cost of each job at the end of July. Then program cells that determine end of July balance of direct materials inventory, end of July balance of work in process inventory, end of July balance of finished goods, sales for July, cost of goods sold for July, and gross profit margin for July. On the lower part of the spreadsheet: Prepare a formal cost of goods manufactured schedule for the month of July.

(the company only deals with underapplied or overapplied overhead at the end of December therefore it is not needed in July).

Alexi's bought a home for $1,000,000 during year 1. She made a $200,000 down payment and financed the other $800,000. This home is her only residence. Assume that by year 10 her home had appreciated to $1,5000,000 and the balance on her mortgage was down to $600,000, interest rates had gone down and Alexis refinanced her home. She borrowed $1,000,000 and paid off her first mortgage. She used the remaining $400,000 for projects unrelated to her home. How much is her qualifying home-related debt for tax purposes?

Your father is 50 years old and will retire in 10 years. He expects to live for 25 years after he retires, until he is 85. He wants a fixed retirement income that has the same purchasing power at the time he retires as $55,000 has today. (The real value of his retirement income will decline annually after he retires.) His retirement income will begin the day he retires, 10 years from today, at which time he will receive 24 additional annual payments. Annual inflation is expected to be 3%. He currently has $65,000 saved, and he expects to earn 8% annually on his savings. The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Open the spreadsheet and perform the required analysis to answer the question below.

Hi-Tek Manufacturing Inc. makes two types of industrial component parts—the B300 and the T500. An absorption costing income statement for the most recent period is shown below:

Hi-Tek Manufacturing Inc.
Income Statement
Sales $ 1,704,000
Cost of goods sold 1,218,682
Gross margin 485,318
Selling and administrative expenses 550,000
Net operating loss $ (64,682)

Hi-Tek produced and sold 60,000 units of B300 at a price of $20 per unit and 12,600 units of T500 at a price of $40 per unit. The company’s traditional cost system allocates manufacturing overhead to products using a plantwide overhead rate and direct labor dollars as the allocation base. Additional information relating to the company’s two product lines is shown below:

B300 T500 Total
Direct materials $ 400,000 $ 162,800 $ 562,800
Direct labor $ 121,000 $ 42,900 163,900
Manufacturing overhead 491,982
Cost of goods sold $ 1,218,682

The company has created an activity-based costing system to evaluate the profitability of its products. Hi-Tek’s ABC implementation team concluded that $52,000 and $102,000 of the company’s advertising expenses could be directly traced to B300 and T500, respectively. The remainder of the selling and administrative expenses was organization-sustaining in nature. The ABC team also distributed the company’s manufacturing overhead to four activities as shown below:

Manufacturing Activity
Activity Cost Pool (and Activity Measure) Overhead B300 T500 Total
Machining (machine-hours) $ 212,382 91,000 62,900 153,900
Setups (setup hours) 117,600 74 220 294
Product-sustaining (number of products) 101,200 1 1 2
Other (organization-sustaining costs) 60,800 NA NA NA
Total manufacturing overhead cost $ 491,982


Required

1. Compute the product margins for the B300 and T500 under the company’s traditional costing system. (Do not round your overhead rate. Round your other intermediate and final answers to the nearest whole number.)


2. Compute the product margins for B300 and T500 under the activity-based costing system. (Negative product margins should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)


3. Prepare a quantitative comparison of the traditional and activity-based cost assignments. (Do not round your overhead rate. Round your other intermediate calculations and final answers to the nearest whole number. Round your "Percentage" answer to 1 decimal place. (i.e. .1234 should be entered as 12.3))

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost.

Last year, the company sold 48,000 of these balls, with the following results:

Sales (48,000 balls) $ 1,200,000
Variable expenses 720,000
Contribution margin 480,000
Fixed expenses 319,000
Net operating income $ 161,000

Required:

1. Compute (a) last year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls, and (b) the degree of operating leverage at last year’s sales level.

2. Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that next year's variable expenses will increase by $3.00 per ball. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $25.00, what will be next year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls?

3. Refer to the data in (2) above. If the expected change in variable expenses takes place, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $161,000, as last year?

4. Refer again to the data in (2) above. The president feels that the company must raise the selling price of its basketballs. If Northwood Company wants to maintain the same CM ratio as last year (as computed in requirement 1a), what selling price per ball must it charge next year to cover the increased labor costs?

5. Refer to the original data. The company is discussing the construction of a new, automated manufacturing plant. The new plant would slash variable expenses per ball by 40.00%, but it would cause fixed expenses per year to double. If the new plant is built, what would be the company’s new CM ratio and new break-even point in balls?

6. Refer to the data in (5) above.

a. If the new plant is built, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $161,000, as last year?

b. Assume the new plant is built and that next year the company manufactures and sells 48,000 balls (the same number as sold last year). Prepare a contribution format income statement and Compute the degree of operating leverage.

The Spokane Recycling Company (SRC) purchases old water and soda bottles and recycles them to produce plastic covers for outdoor furniture. The company processes the bottles in a special piece of equipment that first​ melts, then reforms the plastic into large sheets that are cut to size. The edges from the cut pieces are sold for use as package filler. The filler is considered a byproduct. SRC can produce 27 table​ covers, 77 chair covers and 9 pounds of package filler from 100 pounds of bottles.

In June, SRC had no beginning inventory. It purchased and processed 110,000 pounds of bottles at a cost of $ 880,000. SRC sold 22,000 table covers for $11 each, 77,000 chair covers for $12 each, and 4,000 pounds of package filler at $0.90 per pound.
