The cash account for American Medical Co. at April 30 indicated a balance of $84,457. The bank statement indicated a balance of $127,190 on April 30. Comparing the bank statement and the accompanying canceled checks and memos with the records revealed the following reconciling items:

Sales Order Processing System

The customer sales order is received via phone or through the mail. Gus Grinwich, the sales clerk, receives the sales order and checks the customer’s credit record. Once Grinwich checks the customer’s credit record, he prepares the sales order. From this sales order, Grinwich prepares a customer copy, stock release, shipping notice, two copies of the invoice, ledger copy, packing slip, and the file copy. One of the invoice copies, the ledger copy, and the file copy go to the billing department. The other copy of the invoice and the shipping notice are sent to the shipping department. The stock release and the file copy are sent to the warehouse department.

In the warehouse department, Steve Rossini, the warehouse clerk, receives the stock release and Phil Denuto, the stocker, checks the shelves to pick the gloves for the sales order. Once the goods are taken off the shelf in the warehouse, the stock release is sent to the billing department. Sparky Littleton, the billing clerk, reconciles the invoice, ledger copy, and stock release to make sure that the amount of inventory taken from the shelves is the same as the amount listed in the invoice. Littleton bills the customer for the goods released from the warehouse department. Littleton prepares the sales journal and makes the journal voucher. The journal voucher is sent to the general ledger department. The stock release is sent to the inventory control. The invoice is then filed in the billing department’s file and the ledger copy is sent to the general ledger department.

The shipping department receives the invoice and the shipping notice. They send the goods to the carrier along with the invoice, the packing slip, and the two copies of the bill of lading. The invoice states the amount and quantity of goods that the customer requested in the sales order form. The shipping department files the shipping notice from the customer’s order.

Inventory control receives the stock release form from the billing department. With the stock release form, Bobby Higgins, the inventory clerk, updates the inventory subsidiary ledger relating to the goods that have been released from the warehouse. The ledger copy arrives at the general ledger department from the billing department. Dave Fielder, the general ledger clerk, uses the ledger copy to update the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger. Periodically, Fielder prepares the accounts receivable summary and reconciles it with the journal voucher from the inventory subsidiary ledger and the journal voucher produced by the sales journal in the billing department in order to update the general ledger. These three forms are then filed by Fielder.

The Cash Receipts System

The cash receipts system starts when the wholesalers send back the remittance advice with their payment. This allows Craig Nelson, the mail room clerk, to collect the payment from the customer and process the cash receipt. Nelson then records the cash receipts in the cash receipts journal. Nelson prepares the deposit slips for the funds to be

deposited into the bank along with the checks. The remittance advice is sent to the general ledger department to update the accounts receivable records and is then filed in the billing department. Finally, Nelson prepares the cash receipt journal, out of which comes a journal voucher that is sent to the general ledger department.

Luis Gonzalez, the general ledger clerk, prepares the account summary and journal voucher, which is used to update the general ledger. The account summary and journal voucher is put into the files for record. Gonzalez uses the remittance advice copy sent from the mail room, the deposit slip copy from the bank, and the journal voucher from the account summary to reconcile the deposit slips. He then reconciles the deposit slips from the bank with the totals from the accounts receivable and mail room.

1. Analyze the current system and identify specific internal control problems.

Anna and Bess share partnership profits and losses at 60% and 40%, respectively. The partners agree to admit Cal into the partnership for a 50% interest in capital and earnings. Capital accounts immediately before the admission of Cal are: Anna (60%) $ 300,000 Bess (40%) 300,000 Total $ 600,000

Part 1: Prepare the journal entry(s) for the admission of Cal to the partnership, assuming Cal invested $400,000 for the ownership interest and that this is a fair price for that share of the partnership to be acquired. Cal paid the money directly to Anna and to Bess for 50% of each of their respective capital interests. The partnership records goodwill.

Part 2: Prepare the journal entry(s) for the admission of Cal to the partnership, assuming Cal invested $500,000 for the ownership interest. Cal paid the money to the partnership for a 50% interest in capital and earnings. Assume the valuation is based on the capital of the current partnership, which is fairly valued. The partnership records goodwill.

Part 3: Prepare the journal entry(s) for the admission of Cal to the partnership, assuming Cal invested $700,000 for the ownership interest and that this is a fair price for that share of the partnership to be acquired. Cal paid the money to the partnership for a 50% interest in capital and earnings. The partnership records goodwill.

Boston Railroad decided to use the high-low method and operating data from the past six months to estimate the fixed and variable components of transportation costs. The activity base used by Boston Railroad is a measure of railroad operating activity, termed "gross-ton miles," which is the total number of tons multiplied by the miles moved. Transportation Costs Gross-Ton Miles January $530,900 224,000 February 591,900 250,000 March 418,300 162,000 April 567,500 242,000 May 476,000 195,000 June 610,200 263,000 Determine the variable cost per gross-ton mile and the total fixed cost.

Problem 4-14 Compute and Use Activity Rates to Determine the Costs of Serving Customers [LO4-2, LO4-3, LO4-4]

Gino’s Restaurant is a popular restaurant in Boston, Massachusetts. The owner of the restaurant has been trying to better understand costs at the restaurant and has hired a student intern to conduct an activity-based costing study. The intern, in consultation with the owner, identified the following major activities:

A group of diners who ask to sit at the same table is counted as a party. Some costs, such as the costs of cleaning linen, are the same whether one person is at a table or the table is full. Other costs, such as washing dishes, depend on the number of diners served.

Data concerning these activities are shown below:

Prior to the activity-based costing study, the owner knew very little about the costs of the restaurant. She knew that the total cost for the month was $313,600 and that 32,000 diners had been served. Therefore, the average cost per diner was $9.80 ($313,600 ÷ 32,000 diners = $9.80 per diner).

Required:

1. Compute the activity rates for each of the three activities.

2. According to the activity-based costing system, what is the total cost of serving each of the following parties of diners?

a. A party of four diners who order three drinks in total.

b. A party of two diners who do not order any drinks.

c. A lone diner who orders two drinks.

3. Convert the total costs you computed in part (2) above to costs per diner. In other words, what is the average cost per diner for serving each of the following parties?

a. A party of four diners who order three drinks in total.

b. A party of two diners who do not order any drinks.

c. A lone diner who orders two drinks.

At the beginning, the accountant for Limited industries estimated that total overhead would be $80,000. Overhead is allocated to jobs on the basis of direct labour cost. Direct labour was budgeted to cost $200,000 this period. During the period, only three jobs were worked on. The following summarizes the direct materials and labour costs for each:

Job 12 was finished and sold, Job 123 was finished but is waiting to be sold, and Job 1234 is still in process. Actual overhead for the period was $82,000.

A.  Calculate the cost of each job completed.

Job 12 - ?

Job 123 - ?

Job 1234 - ?

B.  Calculate the cost of goods sold.

C.  Calculate the amount of overapplied or underapplied overhead that will be prorated to the ending balances in work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold.

Sales Forecast and Flexible Budget

Olympus, Inc., manufactures three models of mattresses: the Sleepeze, the Plushette, and the Ultima. Forecast sales for next year are 15,540 for the Sleepeze, 12,140 for the Plushette, and 4,570 for the Ultima. Gene Dixon, vice president of sales, has provided the following information:

1. Salaries for his office (including himself at $67,550, a marketing research assistant at $40,150, and an administrative assistant at $23,400) are budgeted for $131,100 next year.
2. Depreciation on the offices and equipment is $17,050 per year.
3. Office supplies and other expenses total $23,800 per year.
4. Advertising has been steady at $21,650 per year. However, the Ultima is a new product and will require extensive advertising to educate consumers on the unique features of this high-end mattress. Gene believes the company should spend 15 percent of first-year Ultima sales for a print and television campaign.
5. Commissions on the Sleepeze and Plushette lines are 5 percent of sales. These commissions are paid to independent jobbers who sell the mattresses to retail stores.
6. Last year, shipping for the Sleepeze and Plushette lines averaged $55 per unit sold. Gene expects the Ultima line to ship for $70 per unit sold since this model features a larger mattress.

Required:

1. Suppose that Gene is considering three sales scenarios as follows:
