Requirements:

  1. Compute the manufacturing product costs per unit of each model of robot.
  2. Suppose that pre-manufacturing activities, such as product design were assigned to Roxie V at $8 each and to Rosie X at $5 each.

Stuart Airlines is a small airline that occasionally carries overload shipments for the overnight delivery company Never-Fail, Inc. Never-Fail is a multimillion-dollar company started by Wes Never immediately after he failed to finish his first accounting course. The company’s motto is “We Never-Fail to Deliver Your Package on Time.” When Never-Fail has more freight than it can deliver, it pays Stuart to carry the excess. Stuart contracts with independent pilots to fly its planes on a per-trip basis. Stuart recently purchased an airplane that cost the company $6,375,000. The plane has an estimated useful life of 25,500,000 miles and a zero salvage value. During the first week in January, Stuart flew two trips. The first trip was a round trip flight from Chicago to San Francisco, for which Stuart paid $260 for the pilot and $210 for fuel. The second flight was a round trip from Chicago to New York. For this trip, it paid $210 for the pilot and $105 for fuel. The round trip between Chicago and San Francisco is approximately 4,600 miles and the round trip between Chicago and New York is 1,400 miles.

Required

Intermediate Accounting II

  1. United Health Group leased a life support machine on January 1, 2018, for a three-year period ending December 31, 2020. The lease agreement specified annual payments of $144,000 beginning with the first payment at the beginning of the lease, and each December 31 through 2019. The company had the option to purchase the machine on December 30, 2020, for $180,000 when its fair value was expected to be $240,000, a sufficient difference that exercise seems reasonably certain. The machine's estimated useful life was six years with no salvage value. United Health was aware that the lessor's implicit rate of return was 12%.
