On 11/1/X1 JacobCo Inc. hired an external engineering firm to design a new production line to produce a new fishing lure product line. The design of the new production line was completed on 11/28/X1 and JacobCo. Inc. received an invoice from the engineering firm in amount of $225,000. Construction started on a new production line on 12/8/X1 and was completed on 12/31/X1. The total construction cost of the new production line was $895,000. Interest expense from 11/1/X1 when the project was started to 12/31/X1 when it was completed amounted to $43,000 in total. Of that total interest expense $4,200 was attributable to the new production line.
The production line had an estimated engineering physical life of eight years. It is estimated that the production line could be scrapped and have a salvage value of approximately $30,000 at the end of that time.
The marketing department estimated that the new fishing lure product line would provide revenues to JacobCo. Inc. for the next five years. At the end of that time period the fishing lure product line will be discontinued and the production line will be scrapped and will sold for $10,000. The marketing department also estimates that the total number of fishing lures that will be sold over the next five years will be 500,000 units. The production line started into operation on 1/1/X2.
Required: Calculate depreciation for 12/31/X2 and 12/31/X3 and make the required journal entries using :
A. Straight line depreciation.
B. 200% double declining balance.
C. Units of Production assuming that 102,500 lures were produced in the year ending 12/31/X2 and 91,000 lures were produced in the year ending 12/31/X3.

Allocating Joint Costs Using the Physical Units Method Orchard Fresh, Inc., purchases apples from local orchards and sorts them into four categories. Grade A are large blemish-free apples that can be sold to gourmet fruit sellers. Grade B apples are smaller and may be slightly out of proportion. These are packed in boxes and sold to grocery stores. Apples for slices are even smaller than Grade B apples and have blemishes. Apples for applesauce are of lower grade than apples for slices, yet still suitable for canning. Information on a recent purchase of 29,000 pounds of apples is as follows:
Total joint cost is $23,200. Required: 1. Allocate the joint cost to the four grades of apples using the physical units method.
2. Allocate the joint cost to the four grades of apples by finding the average joint cost per pound and multiplying it by the number of pounds in the grade. Round the average cost answer to the nearest cent. Average cost = $ per pound.
3. What if there were 2,900 pounds of Grade A apples and 8,120 pounds of Grade B? How would that affect the allocation of cost to these two grades? How would it affect the allocation of cost to the remaining common grades?

Pitino acquired 80 percent of Brey's outstanding shares on January 1, 2019, in exchange for $369,000 in cash. The subsidiary's stockholders' equity accounts totaled $353,000, and the noncontrolling interest had a fair value of $92,250 on that day. However, a building (with a ten-year remaining life) in Brey's accounting records was undervalued by $19,000. Pitino assigned the rest of the excess fair value over book value to Brey's patented technology (five-year remaining life).
Brey reported net income from its own operations of $67,000 in 2019 and $83,000 in 2020. Brey declared dividends of $18,000 in 2019 and $22,000 in 2020.
Brey sells inventory to Pitino as follows:
| Year | Cost to Brey | Transfer Price to Pitino | Inventory Remaining at Year-End (at transfer price) | ||||||
| 2019 | $ | 72,000 | $ | 130,000 | $ | 28,000 | |||
| 2020 | 97,500 | 150,000 | 40,500 | ||||||
| 2021 | 87,500 | 175,000 | 50,000 | ||||||

Question 2: Input price and input efficiency
variances
The budgeted and actual data for direct materials and labor are as
follows:
| Budgeted | Actual | |
| DM price | $1 per pound | $0.75 per pound |
| DM quantity per unit | 5 pounds per unit | 6 pounds per unit |
| DL price | $8 per hour | $11 per hour |
| DL quantity per unit | 0.3 hours per unit | 0.4 hours per unit |
Actual sales volume is 100 units. Budgeted sales volume is 80
units.
a) Without computations, characterize the following
variances as favorable or unfavorable:
input price variance for DM F U
input efficiency variance for DM F U
input price variance for DL F U
input efficiency variance for DL F U
b) Compute the input price and input efficiency variances
for DM and DL.
As a preliminary step, compute actual input quantity (total pounds
or hours we actually used) and flexible budget input quantity
(total pounds or hours we should have used for actual
output):
actual input quantity for DM
= pounds
flexible budget input quantity for DM
= pounds
actual input quantity for DL
= hours
flexible budget input quantity for DL
= hours
Next, compute the variances. Enter favorable variances as a
positive number and unfavorable variances as a negative number. Do
NOT enter F or U.
input price variance for DM = $
input efficiency variance for DM = $
input price variance for DL = $
input efficiency variance for DL = $

Clark and Shiffer LLP perform activities related to e-commerce consulting and information systems in Vancouver, British Columbia. The firm, which bills $162 per hour for services performed, is in a very tight local labor market and is having difficulty finding quality help for its overworked professional staff. The cost per hour for professional staff time is $72. Selected information follows. • Billable hours to clients for the year totaled 8,200, consisting of: information systems services, 4,920; e-commerce consulting, 3,280. • Administrative cost of $414,760 was (and continues to be) allocated to both services based on billable hours. These costs consist of staff support, $221,520; in-house computing, $156,000; and miscellaneous office charges, $37,240. A recent analysis of staff support costs found a correlation with the number of clients served. In-house computing and miscellaneous office charges varied directly with the number of computer hours logged and number of client transactions, respectively. A tabulation revealed the following data:
| E-Commerce Consulting | Information Systems Services |
Total | |||
| Number of clients | 70 | 250 | 320 | ||
| Number of computer hours | 2,320 | 3,670 | 5,990 | ||
| Number of client transactions | 830 | 700 | 1,530 | ||

Brent received 1,000 shares of Alabama Corporation stock from his uncle as a gift on July 20, 2017, when the stock had a $275,000 FMV. His uncle paid $ 100,000 for the stock on April 12, 2002. The taxable gift was $ 275,000, because his uncle made another gift to Brent for $25,000 in January and used the annual exclusion. The uncle paid a gift tax of $13,750. Without considering the transactions below, Brent's AGI is $75,000 in 2018. No other transactions involving capital assets occur during the year.
Analyze each transaction below, independent of the others, and determine Brent's AGI in each case. (Do not round intermediary calculations. Only round the amounts you input in the cells to the nearest dollar. Use a minus sign or parentheses to enter a loss.)
