Problem 13-12

Pronghorn Music Emporium carries a wide variety of musical instruments, sound reproduction equipment, recorded music, and sheet music. Pronghorn uses two sales promotion techniques—warranties and premiums—to attract customers.

Musical instruments and sound equipment are sold with a 1-year warranty for replacement of parts and labor. The estimated warranty cost, based on past experience, is 1% of sales.

The premium is offered on the recorded and sheet music. Customers receive a coupon for each dollar spent on recorded music or sheet music. Customers may exchange 200 coupons and $20 for an MP3 player. Pronghorn pays $33 for each player and estimates that 50% of the coupons given to customers will be redeemed.

Pronghorn’s total sales for 2020 were $7,570,000—$5,898,000 from musical instruments and sound reproduction equipment and $1,672,000 from recorded music and sheet music. Replacement parts and labor for warranty work totaled $97,500 during 2020 ($45,000 of the work is related to pre-2020 sales). A total of 6,340 players used in the premium program were purchased during the year and there were 1,126,000 coupons redeemed in 2020.

The balances in the accounts related to warranties and premiums on January 1, 2020, were as shown below.

Premium Inventory $ 37,950
Premium Liability 47,620
Warranty Liability 57,100

(a) Warranty Expense $

  

(b) Warranty Liability $

WildhorseCorporation is preparing earnings per share data for 2020. The net income for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $410,000 and there were 59,700 common shares outstanding during the entire year. Wildhorse has the following two convertible securities outstanding:

10% convertible bonds (each $1,000 bond is convertible into 20 common shares) $100,000
3% convertible $100 par value preferred shares (each share is convertible into 2 common shares) $53,000


Both convertible securities were issued at face value in 2017. There were no conversions during 2020, and Wildhorse’s income tax rate is 22%. The preferred shares are cumulative. For simplicity, ignore the requirement to record the debt and equity components of the bonds separately.

Calculate Wildhorse’s basic earnings per share for 2020. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)

Python 3

A simple way to encrypt a file is to change all characters following a certain encoding rule. In this question, you need to move all letters to next letter. e.g. 'a'->'b', 'b'->'c', ..., 'z'->'a', 'A'->'B', 'B'->'C', ..., 'Z'->'A'. For all digits, you need to also move them to the next number. e.g. '0'->'1', '1'->'2', ..., '9'->'0'. All the other symbols should not be changed.

  1. Write a function encrypt with the following requirements:
  • the function takes a string argument, which is a file name.
  • read the csv file.
  • replace all characters uisng the rule above.
  • write the content to a new file named "encrypted.csv".
  1. Call the function with the file name "business-price-indexes-june-2020-quarter-csv-corrected.csv"

Schultz Electronics manufactures two large-screen television models: the Royale which sells for $1,600, and a new model, the Majestic, which sells for $1,300. The production cost computed per unit under traditional costing for each model in 2020 was as follows.

Assign overhead to products using ABC and evaluate decision.

Manufacturing overhead ($38 per DLH)

Total per unit cost

$1,048

$710

In 2020, Schultz manufactured 25,000 units of the Royale and 10,000 units of the Majestic. The overhead rate of $38 per direct labor hour was determined by dividing total expected manufacturing overhead of $7,600,000 by the total direct labor hours (200,000) for the two models.

Under traditional costing, the gross profit on the models was Royale $552 or ($1,600 − $1,048), and Majestic $590 or ($1,300 − $710). Because of this difference, management is considering phasing out the Royale model and increasing the production of the Majestic model.

Before finalizing its decision, management asks Schultz’s controller to prepare an analysis using activity-based costing (ABC). The controller accumulates the following information about overhead for the year ended December 31, 2020.
