Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4

Units 2,000,0000 6,000,000 6,000,000 2,000,000

Unit Selling Price $0.70 $0.70 $0.80 $0.80

Quarter Units Sales Ending Inventory

1 2,000,000 500,000

2 6,000,000 500,000

3 6,000,000 100,000

4 2,000,000 100,000

Inventory on both January 1, 20x1, and January 1, 20x2, is expected to be 100,000 blocks.

Each block requires 26 pounds of raw materials (a mixture of cement, sand, gravel, shale, pumice, and water). TBA's raw materials inventory policy is to have 5 million pounds in ending inventory for the third and fourth quarters and 8 million pounds in ending inventory for the first and second quarters. Thus, desired direct materials inventory on both January 1, 20x1, and January 1, 20x2, is 5,000,000 pounds of materials. Each pound of raw materials costs $0.01.

Each block requires 0.015 direct labor hour; direct labor is paid $14 per direct labor hour.

Variable overhead is $8 per direct labor hour. Fixed overhead is budgeted at $320,000 per quarter ($100,000 for supervision, $200,000 for depreciation, and $20,000 for rent).

TBA also provided the information that beginning finished goods inventory is $55,000; and the ending finished goods inventory budget for ABT for the year $67,000.

TBA's only variable marketing expense is a $0.05 commission per unit (block) sold. Fixed marketing expenses for each quarter include the following:

Salaries: $20,000

Depreciation: 5,000

Travel: 3,000

Advertising expense is $10,000 in Quarters 1, 3, and 4. However, at the beginning of the summer building season, TBA increases advertising; in Quarter 2, advertising expense is $15,000.

TBA has no variable administrative expenses. Fixed administrative expenses for each quarter include the following:

Salaries $35,000

Insurance 4,000

Depreciation 12,000

Travel 2,000

Income taxes are paid at the rate of 30 percent of operating income.

Of the sales on account, 70 percent are collected in the quarter of sale; the remaining 30 percent are collected in the quarter following the sale. Total sales for the fourth quarter of 20x0 totaled $2,000,000.

All materials are purchased on account; 80 percent of purchases are paid for in the quarter of purchase. The remaining 20 percent are paid in the following quarter. The purchases for the fourth quarter of 20x0 were $500,000.

TBA requires a $100,000 minimum cash balance for the end of each quarter. On December 31, 20x0, the cash balance was $120,000.

Money can be borrowed and repaid in multiples of $100,000. Interest is 12 percent per year. Interest payments are made only for the amount of the principal being repaid. All borrowing takes place at the beginning of a quarter, and all repayment takes place at the end of a quarter.

Budgeted depreciation is $200,000 per quarter for overhead, $5,000 for marketing expense, and $12,000 for administrative expense. (Remember that depreciation is not a cash expense and must be deleted from total expenses before the cash budget is prepared.)

The capital budget for 20x1 revealed plans to purchase additional equipment for $600,000 in the first quarter. The acquisition will be financed with operating cash, supplementing it with short-term loans as necessary.

Corporate income taxes of $20,700 will be paid at the end of the fourth quarter.

Tami Tyler opened Tami’s Creations, Inc., a small manufacturing company, at the beginning of the year....

Tami Tyler opened Tami’s Creations, Inc., a small manufacturing company, at the beginning of the year. Getting the company through its first quarter of operations placed a considerable strain on Ms. Tyler’s personal finances. The following income statement for the first quarter was prepared by a friend who has just completed a course in managerial accounting at State University.

Tami’s Creations, Inc.

Income Statement

For the Quarter Ended March 31

Sales (28,300 units) $ 1,132,000
Variable expenses:
Variable cost of goods sold $ 466,950
Variable selling and administrative 196,685 663,635
Contribution margin 468,365
Fixed expenses:
Fixed manufacturing overhead 319,680
Fixed selling and administrative 172,685 492,365
Net operating loss $ ( 24,000)

Ms. Tyler is discouraged over the loss shown for the quarter, particularly because she had planned to use the statement as support for a bank loan. Another friend, a CPA, insists that the company should be using absorption costing rather than variable costing and argues that if absorption costing had been used the company probably would have reported at least some profit for the quarter.

At this point, Ms. Tyler is manufacturing only one product—a swimsuit. Production and cost data relating to the swimsuit for the first quarter follow:

Units produced 33,300
Units sold 28,300
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $ 7.50
Direct labor $ 7.20
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.80
Variable selling and administrative $ 6.95

Required:

1. Complete the following:

a. Compute the unit product cost under absorption costing.

b. What is the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) for the quarter?

c. Reconcile the variable and absorption costing net operating income (loss) figures.

3. During the second quarter of operations, the company again produced 33,300 units but sold 38,300 units. (Assume no change in total fixed costs.)

a. What is the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) for the second quarter?

b. What is the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) for the second quarter?

c. Reconcile the variable costing and absorption costing net operating incomes for the second quarter.

During the second quarter of operations, the company again produced 33,300 units but sold 38,300 units. (Assume no change in total fixed costs.) What is the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) for the second quarter?

Understanding Relationships, Master Budget, Comprehensive Review

Optima Company is a high-technology organization that produces a mass-storage system. The design of Optima's system is unique and represents a breakthrough in the industry. The units Optima produces combine positive features of both compact and hard disks. The company is completing its fifth year of operations and is preparing to build its master budget for the coming year (20X1). The budget will detail each quarter's activity and the activity for the year in total. The master budget will be based on the following information:

Fourth-quarter sales for 20X0 are 55,000 units.

Unit sales by quarter (for 20X1) are projected as follows:

First quarter 65,000
Second quarter 70,000
Third quarter 75,000
Fourth quarter 90,000

The selling price is $400 per unit. All sales are credit sales. Optima collects 85% of all sales within the quarter in which they are realized; the other 15% is collected in the following quarter. There are no bad debts.There is no beginning inventory of finished goods. Optima is planning the following ending finished goods inventories for each quarter:

First quarter 13,000 units
Second quarter 15,000 units
Third quarter 20,000 units
Fourth quarter 10,000 units

Each mass-storage unit uses 5 hours of direct labor and three units of direct materials. Laborers are paid $10 per hour, and one unit of direct materials costs $80.

There are 65,700 units of direct materials in beginning inventory as of January 1, 20X1. At the end of each quarter, Optima plans to have 30% of the direct materials needed for next quarter's unit sales. Optima will end the year with the same amount of direct materials found in this year's beginning inventory.

Optima buys direct materials on account. Half of the purchases are paid for in the quarter of acquisition, and the remaining half are paid for in the following quarter. Wages and salaries are paid on the 15th and 30th of each month.

Fixed overhead totals $1 million each quarter. Of this total, $350,000 represents depreciation. All other fixed expenses are paid for in cash in the quarter incurred. The fixed overhead rate is computed by dividing the year's total fixed overhead by the year's budgeted production in units.

Variable overhead is budgeted at $6 per direct labor hour. All variable overhead expenses are paid for in the quarter incurred.

Fixed selling and administrative expenses total $250,000 per quarter, including $50,000 depreciation.

Variable selling and administrative expenses are budgeted at $10 per unit sold. All selling and administrative expenses are paid for in the quarter incurred.

The balance sheet as of December 31, 20X0, is as follows:

Assets
Cash $ 250,000
Direct materials inventory 5,256,000
Accounts receivable 3,300,000
Plant and equipment, net 33,500,000
     Total assets $42,306,000
Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
Accounts payable $ 7,248,000*
Capital stock 27,000,000
Retained earnings 8,058,000
     Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity $42,306,000
* For purchase of direct materials only.

Optima will pay quarterly dividends of $300,000. At the end of the fourth quarter, $2 million of equipment will be purchased.

Required:

The following income statement for the first quarter was prepared by a friend who has just completed a course in managerial accounting at State University.

Tami’s Creations, Inc.

Income Statement

For the Quarter Ended March 31

Sales (28,450 units) $ 1,138,000
Variable expenses:
Variable cost of goods sold $ 432,440
Variable selling and administrative 199,150 631,590
Contribution margin 506,410
Fixed expenses:
Fixed manufacturing overhead 267,600
Fixed selling and administrative 258,810 526,410
Net operating loss $ ( 20,000)

Ms. Tyler is discouraged over the loss shown for the quarter, particularly because she had planned to use the statement as support for a bank loan. Another friend, a CPA, insists that the company should be using absorption costing rather than variable costing and argues that if absorption costing had been used the company probably would have reported at least some profit for the quarter.

At this point, Ms. Tyler is manufacturing only one product—a swimsuit. Production and cost data relating to the swimsuit for the first quarter follow:

Units produced 33,450
Units sold 28,450
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $ 7.20
Direct labor $ 6.00
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2.00
