Carlise Corp., which manufactures ceiling fans, currently has two product lines, the Indoor and the Outdoor. Carlise has total overhead of $133,810.

Carlise has identified the following information about its overhead activity cost pools and the two product lines:

Activity Cost Pools Cost Driver Cost Assigned

Quantity/Amount Consumed by Indoor Line Quantity/Amount Consumed by Outdoor Line
Materials handling Number of moves $ 17,010 630 moves 270 moves
Quality control Number of inspections $ 85,120 5,600 inspections 5,600 inspections
Machine maintenance Number of machine hours $ 31,680 20,000 machine hours 24,000 machine hours

Required:
1.
Suppose Carlise used a traditional costing system with machine hours as the cost driver. Determine the amount of overhead assigned to each product line. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)



2. Calculate the activity proportions for each cost pool in Carlise's ABC system. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

  

3. Calculate the amount of overhead that Carlise will assign to the Indoor line if it uses an ABC system. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)



4. Determine the amount of overhead Carlise will assign to the Outdoor line if it uses an ABC system. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Exercise 22-20

The before-tax income for Tamarisk Co. for 2017 was $98,000 and $80,300 for 2018. However, the accountant noted that the following errors had been made:

1. Sales for 2017 included amounts of $41,300 which had been received in cash during 2017, but for which the related products were delivered in 2018. Title did not pass to the purchaser until 2018.
2. The inventory on December 31, 2017, was understated by $7,800.
3. The bookkeeper in recording interest expense for both 2017 and 2018 on bonds payable made the following entry on an annual basis.

Interest Expense

18,200

     Cash

18,200

The bonds have a face value of $260,000 and pay a stated interest rate of 7%. They were issued at a discount of $14,000 on January 1, 2017, to yield an effective-interest rate of 8%. (Assume that the effective-yield method should be used.)
4. Ordinary repairs to equipment had been erroneously charged to the Equipment account during 2017 and 2018. Repairs in the amount of $8,200 in 2017 and $9,300 in 2018 were so charged. The company applies a rate of 10% to the balance in the Equipment account at the end of the year in its determination of depreciation charges.


Prepare a schedule showing the determination of corrected income before taxes for 2017 and 2018.

June 4: Additional office equipment costing $600 was purchased on credit from Discount Computer Corporation.

June 8: Unsatisfactory office equipment costing $120 was returned to Discount Computer for credit to be applied against the outstanding balance owed by Byte.

June 10: Byte paid $23,750 on the balance it owed on the June 2 purchase of computer equipment.

June 14: A one-year insurance policy covering its computer equipment was purchased by Byte for $4,968 in cash. The effective date of the policy was June 16.

June 16: Computer consultation revenue of $6,500 was received.

June 16: Byte purchased a building and the land it is on for $101,000, to house its repair facilities and to store computer equipment. The lot on which the building is located is valued at $16,000. The balance of the cost is to be allocated to the building. Byte made a cash down payment of $10,100 and executed a mortgage for the balance. The mortgage is payable in eight equal annual installments beginning July 1.

June 17: Cash of $6,600 was paid for rent for June, July and August. Put the total amount into the Prepaid Rent account.

June 17: Received a bill of $350 from the local newspaper for advertising.

June 21: Billed various miscellaneous local customers $4,100 for consulting services performed.

June 30: Paid a cash dividend of $0.18 per share to the three shareholders of Byte. [IMPORTANT NOTE: The number of shares of capital stock outstanding can be determined from the first three transactions.]

Adjusting Entries - Round to two decimal places.

The rent payment made on June 17 was for June, July and August. Expense the amount associated with one month's rent.

A physical inventory showed that only $281.00 worth of office supplies remained on hand as of June 30.

The annual interest rate on the mortgage payable was 8.00 percent. Interest expense for one-half month should be computed because the building and land were purchased and the liability incurred on June 16.

Information relating to the prepaid insurance may be obtained from the transaction recorded on June 14. Expense the amount associated with one half month's insurance.

A review of Byte’s job worksheets show that there are unbilled revenues in the amount of $5,625 for the period of June 28-30.

The fixed assets have estimated useful lives as follows:
Building - 31.5 years
Computer Equipment - 5.0 years
Office Equipment - 7.0 years
Use the straight-line method of depreciation. Management has decided that assets purchased during a month are treated as if purchased on the first day of the month. The building’s scrap value is $500. The office equipment has a scrap value of $300. The computer equipment has no scrap value. Calculate the depreciation for one month.

A review of the payroll records show that unpaid salaries in the amount of $621 are owed by Byte for three days, June 28 - 30.

The note payable relating to the June 2, and 10 transactions is a five-year note, with interest at the rate of 12 percent annually. Interest expense should be computed based on a 360 day year.
[IMPORTANT NOTE: The original note on the computer equipment purchased on June 2 was $124,000. On June 10, eight days later, $23,750 was repaid. Interest expense must be
calculated on the $124,000 for eight days. In addition, interest expense on the $100,250 balance of the loan ($124,000 less $23,750 = $100,250) must be calculated for the 20 days remaining in the month of June.]

Income taxes are to be computed at the rate of 25 percent of net income before taxes.
[IMPORTANT NOTE: Since the income taxes are a percent of the net income you will want to prepare the Income Statements through the Net Income Before Tax line. The worksheet contains all of the accounts and their balances which you can then transfer to the appropriate financial statement.]

Some new production machinery has a first cost of $100,000 and a useful like of 10 years. Its estimated operating and maintenance costs are $10,000 the first year, which will increase annually by $4000. The asset’s before-tax market value will be $50,000 at the end of the first year and then will decrease by $5000 annually. This property is a 7-year MACRS property. The company uses a 6% after tax MARR and is subject to a combined federal/state tax rate of 40%. Calculate the after tax cash flows. The spreadsheet also needs to be able to use WACC in place of a given interest rate. The spreadsheet needs to accommodate different tax rates, and must include ATCF for O&M and Depreciation and ATCFs of disposal if the equipment is sold in each of the 10 years. Combine these to Identify the optimal life.
