Kingsport Containers Company makes a single product that is subject to wide seasonal variations in demand. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes plantwide predetermined overhead rates on a quarterly basis using the number of units to be produced as the allocation base. Its estimated costs, by quarter, for the coming year are given below:

Management finds the variation in quarterly unit product costs to be confusing and difficult to work with. It has been suggested that the problem lies with manufacturing overhead because it is the largest element of total manufacturing cost. Accordingly, you have been asked to find a more appropriate way of assigning manufacturing overhead cost to units of product.

Required:

1. Assuming the estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit is $0.40, what must be the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost per quarter?

2. Assuming the assumptions about cost behavior from the first three quarters hold constant, what is the estimated unit product cost for the fourth quarter?

3. What is causing the estimated unit product cost to fluctuate from one quarter to the next?

4. Assuming the company computes one predetermined overhead rate for the year rather than computing quarterly overhead rates, calculate the unit product cost for all units produced during the year.

Auto Renovators2 is a leading classic car restoration company in Australia. The company has been well-known for renovating thousands of classic cars in Australia according to customers’ orders. In February, the company has worked on five jobs, numbered 301 to 305. Direct materials used, direct labour incurred in February were as shown in the following table.

Manufacturing overheads during February included indirect material ($ 1100), indirect labour ($ 2750), rent ($ 2000), depreciation ($ 1300), insurance ($ 250), utilities ($ 800), and other manufacturing costs ($ 400).

At the beginning of the month, management anticipated that overhead cost would be $ 9100 and total direct labour would amount to $ 6500. Overhead is allocated on the basis of direct labour dollars.

Jobs 301 to 303 were finished during the month; Jobs 304 and 305 is still in process. Jobs 301 to 303 were picked up and paid by customers for $ 6100, $ 4800, $ 3700.

Required

1.       Determine the company’s predetermined overhead rate.

2.       Prepare the journal entries to reflect the following: the incurrence of materials, labour, and actual overhead costs; the allocation of overhead; and the transfer of job costs to finished goods inventory and cost of goods sold (Note: Use summary entries where appropriate by combining individual job data).

3.       In your own words, describe the two different approaches to closing overapplied or underapplied overhead at the end of the month. How do you choose an appropriate method? Calculate the amount of overapplied or underapplied overhead to be closed and prepare an appropriate journal entry.

On January 1, 2018, Essence Communications issued $900,000 of its 10-year, 6% bonds for $777,687. The bonds were priced to yield 8%. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Essence Communications records interest at the effective rate and elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value. On December 31, 2018, the market interest rate for bonds of similar risk and maturity was 7%. The bonds are not traded on an active exchange. The decrease in the market interest rate was due to a 1% decrease in general (risk-free)interest rates. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1)

Required:
1. Using the information provided, estimate the fair value of the bonds at December 31, 2018.
2. to 4. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on June 30, 2018 (the first interest payment), on December 31, 2018 (the second interest payment) and to adjust the bonds to their fair value for presentation in the December 31, 2018, balance sheet.

Six Measures of Solvency or Profitability

The following data were taken from the financial statements of Gates Inc. for the current fiscal year.

Assuming that long-term investments totaled $2,308,000 throughout the year and that total assets were $4,384,000 at the beginning of the current fiscal year, determine the following. When required, round to one decimal place.

Special Order
Total cost data follow for Glendale Manufacturing Company, which has a normal capacity per period of 8,000 units of product that sell for $60 each. For the foreseeable future, regular sales volume should continue to equal normal capacity.

Notes:
1. Beyond normal capacity, fixed overhead costs increase $1,800 for each 500 units or fraction thereof until a maximum capacity of 10,000 units is reached.
2. Selling expenses consist of a 6% sales commission and shipping costs of 80 cents per unit. Glendale pays only three-fourths of the regular sales commission on sales totaling 501 to 1,000 units and only two-thirds the regular commission on sales totaling 1,000 units or more.

Glendale's sales manager has received a special order for 1,200 units from a large discount chain at a price of $36 each, F.O.B. factory. The controller's office has furnished the following additional cost data related to the special order:

1. Changes in the product's design will reduce direct material costs $1.50 per unit.
2. Special processing will add 20% to the per-unit direct labor costs.
3. Variable overhead will continue at the same proportion of direct labor costs.
4. Other costs should not be affected.

a. Present an analysis supporting a decision to accept or reject the special order. (Round computations to the nearest cent.)

b. What is the lowest price Glendale could receive and still make a profit of $3,600 before income taxes on the special order?

Round answer to two decimal places, if applicable.
