Note: This problem is for the 2018 tax year.

Lance H. and Wanda B. Dean are married and live at 431 Yucca Drive, Santa Fe, NM 87501. Lance works for the convention bureau of the local Chamber of Commerce, while Wanda is employed part-time as a paralegal for a law firm.

During 2018, the Deans had the following receipts:

Wanda was previously married to John Allen. When they divorced several years ago, Wanda was awarded custody of their two children, Penny and Kyle. (Note: Wanda has never issued a Form 8332 waiver.) Under the divorce decree, John was obligated to pay alimony and child support—the alimony payments were to terminate if Wanda remarried.

In July, while going to lunch in downtown Santa Fe, Wanda was injured by a tour bus. As the driver was clearly at fault, the owner of the bus, Roadrunner Touring Company, paid her medical expenses (including a one-week stay in a hospital). To avoid a lawsuit, Roadrunner also transferred $90,000 to her in settlement of the personal injuries she sustained.

The Deans had the following expenditures for 2018:

The life insurance policy was taken out by Lance several years ago and designates Wanda as the beneficiary. As a part-time employee, Wanda is excluded from coverage under her employer's pension plan. Consequently, she provides for her own retirement with a traditional IRA obtained at a local trust company. Because the mayor is a member of the local Chamber of Commerce, Lance felt compelled to make the political contribution.

The Deans' household includes the following, for whom they provide more than half of the support:

Penny graduated from high school on May 9, 2018, and is undecided about college. During 2018, she earned $8,500 (placed in a savings account) playing a harp in the lobby of a local hotel. Wayne is Wanda's widower father who died on January 20, 2018. For the past few years, Wayne qualified as a dependent of the Deans.

Federal income tax withheld is $5,200 (Lance) and $2,100 (Wanda). The proper amount of Social Security and Medicare tax was withheld.

Required:

Determine the Federal income tax for 2018 for the Deans on a joint return by providing the following information that would appear on Form 1040 and Schedule A. They do not want to contribute to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund. All members of the family had health care coverage for all of 2018. If an overpayment results, it is to be refunded to them.

Sweeten Company had no jobs in progress at the beginning of March and no beginning inventories. It started only two jobs during March—Job P and Job Q. Job P was completed and sold by the end of March and Job Q was incomplete at the end of March. The company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Jobs P and Q (all data and questions relate to the month of March): Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 14,400 Estimated variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $ 1.50 Estimated total direct labor-hours to be worked 3,600 Total actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred $ 20,000 ________________________________________ Job P Job Q Direct materials $ 15,000 $ 9,600 Direct labor cost $ 40,500 $ 12,000 Actual direct labor-hours worked 2,700 800 ________________________________________

11. Calculate the cost of goods manufactured using the indirect method.

12. Calculate the cost of goods sold using the indirect method.

13. How would you revise your answer to question 11 if the company had beginning work in process inventory of $9,600?

14. How would you revise your answer to question 12 if the company had beginning finished goods inventory of $13,600?

Additional information:

The buildings, land, and machinery are all stated at cost except for a parcel of land that the company is holding for future sale. The land originally cost $56,000 but, due to a significant increase in market value, is listed at $132,000. The increase in the land account was credited to retained earnings.

Marketable equity securities consist of stocks of other corporations and are recorded at cost, $26,000 of which will be sold in the coming year. The remainder will be held indefinitely.

Notes payable are all long-term. However, a $160,000 note requires an installment payment of $40,000 due in the coming year.

Inventories are recorded at current resale value. The original cost of the inventories is $166,000.

Required:

In July, 2006, a member of the audit team auditing Belhaven University’s annual report was carrying his laptop while walking to his car parked in the street. He was mugged and his wallet and laptop was stolen. The laptop contained audit documentation with sensitive personal information about employees, including their social security numbers. According to Belhaven’s president, Roger Parrott, the stolen computer had “several sophisticated levels of security” and it was unlikely that the thief would be able to extract any information. (1) Do you think that the auditors violated GAAS by allowing the information to be stolen? Why or why not? (2) Since a laptop might get stolen (or simply crash), what steps do you think an auditor should take to prevent losing the information in it?

A condensed income statement by product line for Crown Beverage Inc. indicated the following for King Cola for the past year:

It is estimated that 15% of the cost of goods sold represents fixed factory overhead costs and that 19% of the operating expenses are fixed. Since King Cola is only one of many products, the fixed costs will not be materially affected if the product is discontinued.

a. Prepare a differential analysis, dated March 3, to determine whether King Cola should be continued (Alternative 1) or discontinued (Alternative 2). If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". Use a minus sign to indicate a loss.

b. Should Star Cola be retained? Explain.

As indicated by the differential analysis in part (A), the income would   by $ if the product is discontinued.

Worley Company buys surgical supplies from a variety of manufacturers and then resells and delivers these supplies to hundreds of hospitals. Worley sets its prices for all hospitals by marking up its cost of goods sold to those hospitals by 8%. For example, if a hospital buys supplies from Worley that cost Worley $100 to buy from manufacturers, Worley would charge the hospital $108 to purchase these supplies.

For years, Worley believed that the 8% markup covered its selling and administrative expenses and provided a reasonable profit. However, in the face of declining profits, Worley decided to implement an activity-based costing system to help improve its understanding of customer profitability. The company broke its selling and administrative expenses into five activities as shown:

Worley gathered the data below for two of the many hospitals that it serves—University and Memorial (each hospital purchased medical supplies that had cost Worley $31,000 to buy from manufacturers):

Required:

1. Compute the total revenue that Worley would receive from University and Memorial.

2. Compute the activity rate for each activity cost pool.

3. Compute the total activity costs that would be assigned to University and Memorial.

4. Compute Worley’s customer margin for University and Memorial. (Hint: Do not overlook the $31,000 cost of goods sold that Worley incurred serving each hospital.)

Compute Worley’s customer margin for University and Memorial. (Hint: Do not overlook the $31,000 cost of goods sold that Worley incurred serving each hospital.) (Loss amounts should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your final answers to the nearest whole number.)

A computer sold on November 11 is depreciated as if it had only been used until October 31.

26. A lease payment of $6,000 for renting the office was made on November 1, 2017, for rental through October 31, 2018. The asset account was properly adjusted for November. The cost of leasing the office needs to be made for December 2017.
