Moonbeam Company manufactures toasters. For the first 8 months
of 2020, the company reported the following operating results while
operating at 75% of plant capacity:
| Sales (341,600 units) | $4,370,000 | ||
| Cost of goods sold | 2,591,280 | ||
| Gross profit | 1,778,720 | ||
| Operating expenses | 836,920 | ||
| Net income | $941,800 |
Cost of goods sold was 70% variable and 30% fixed; operating
expenses were 80% variable and 20% fixed.
In September, Moonbeam receives a special order for 15,000 toasters
at $7.50 each from Luna Company of Ciudad Juarez. Acceptance of the

Gladstone Company tracks the number of units purchased and sold throughout each accounting period but applies its inventory costing method at the end of each period, as if it uses a periodic inventory system. Assume its accounting records provided the following information at the end of the annual accounting period, December 31. |
| Transactions | Units | Unit Cost | |||||||
| Beginning inventory, January 1 | 3,400 | $ | 50 | ||||||
| Transactions during the year: | |||||||||
| a. | Purchase, January 30 | 4,700 | 65 | ||||||
| b. | Sale, March 14 ($100 each) | (3,050 | ) | ||||||
| c. | Purchase, May 1 | 3,400 | 80 | ||||||
| d. | Sale, August 31 ($100 each) | (3,500 | ) | ||||||

Assuming that for Specific identification method (item 1d) the
March 14 sale was selected two-fifths from the beginning inventory
and three-fifths from the purchase of January 30. Assume that the
sale of August 31 was selected from the remainder of the beginning
inventory, with the balance from the purchase of May 1. |

Ten years ago Diana Torres wrote what has become the leading Tort textbook. She has been receiving royalties based on revenues reported by the publisher. These revenues started at $1.4 million in the first year, and grew steadily by 5.9% per year. Her royalty rate is 15% of revenue. Recently, she hired an auditor who discovered that the publisher had been under reporting revenues. The book had actually earned 10% more in revenues than had been reported on her royalty statements.
a. Assuming the publisher pays an interest rate of 3.7% on missed payments, how much money does the publisher owe Diana?
b. The publisher is short of cash, so instead of paying Diana what is owed, the publisher is offering to increase her royalty rate on future book sales. Assume the book will generate revenues for an additional 20 years and that the current revenue growth will continue. If Diana would otherwise put the money into a bank account paying interest of 3.8%, what royalty rate would make her indifferent between accepting an increase in the future royalty rate and receiving the cash owed today.

Georgia-Atlantic’s incremental borrowing rate is 8%, the same rate IC uses to calculate lease payment amounts. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis at the end of each fiscal year. The fair value of the warehouse is $3.8. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Required: 1. Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2018 that Georgia-Atlantic uses to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability. 2. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2018? 3. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its income statement for the year ended December 31, 2018? (For all requirements, enter your answers in whole dollars and not in millions. Round your final answer to nearest whole dollar.)
