Safe Inc. is a service firm that sells home security systems, which it installs and maintains. After the sales force makes initial contact with a new customer and completes the sale, setting up the new service requires two processes: (1) a home visit where the equipment is physically installed and (2) the remote connection from off-site at corporate headquarters. Given the different levels of skill and work required, Safe Inc. tracks costs separately for the Installation and Connection processes. Nevertheless, given the relative simplicity of these processes, Safe Inc. tracks them both on a single product cost report with one direct materials category for the equipment and two conversion cost categories for installation and connection services. Assume that all home installations are completed the same day they are started. After installation, there is sometimes a delay of up to two days before the remote connection is completed. However, in the ideal situation, both the home installation and connection are completed on the same day. What is Safe Inc.’s ending Cost of Contracts Completed and Incomplete Contracts for July, assuming it uses the FIFO costing method? Page 2 * The sales team closed 2,050 new security contracts during July. * Safe Inc. pays its suppliers $400, on average, to purchase one security system. However, the price experiences some variation due to fluctuations in suppliers cost of raw materials. * On average, the installation of each system requires approximately 3 labor hours and establishing and testing the connection requires 2 labor hours. However, Safe Inc. does encounter some variation across employees. * Labor and overhead costs for installation is approximately $20/hour. * Labor and overhead costs for connection costs approximately $35/hour. * Assume that the contracts outstanding at the beginning of July include $1,206 for equipment and $179 of installation costs. * Also assume that Safe Inc. actually incurs $816,270 for new equipment installed during July plus $119,652 of installation costs and $147,825 of connection-related costs. * At the beginning of July, Safe Inc. had 95 incomplete sales contracts. Of these incomplete contracts, 92 were awaiting both installation and connection and 3 had been installed but were still awaiting connection. * At the end of July, Safe Inc. had 120 incomplete sales contracts. Of these incomplete contracts, 114 jobs were awaiting both installation and connection and 6 jobs had been installed but were still awaiting connection.

commenced construction on a parking garage. The total contract
price was $89.4 million and was expected to be completed in July

(Supplemental Disclosures) It is February 2021 and Janix Corporation is preparing to issue financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. To prepare financial statements and related disclosures that are faithfully representative, Janix is reviewing the following events in 2020 and 2021:
1. In August 2020, Maddux Incorporated filed a lawsuit against
Janix for alleged patent infringement, claiming $1.8 million in
damages. In the opinion of Janix's management and legal counsel, it
is not likely that damages will be awarded to Maddux.
2. In January 2021, there was a significant decline in the fair
value of Janix's FV-NI investments, resulting in an unrealized
holding loss of $720,000.
3. In January 2021, a customer filed a lawsuit against Janix for
alleged breach of contract related to services provided in 2020.
The customer is seeking damages of $950,000. Janix's legal counsel
believes that Janix will likely lose the lawsuit and have to pay
between $850,000 and $950,000.
4. In August 2020, Janix signed a contract to purchase 200,000
inventory units in August 2021 for a price of $12 per unit.
According to the supplier's price list at December 31, 2020, the
price per inventory unit had decreased to $10 per unit.
5. At December 31, 2020, Janix had a $1.1-million demand loan
outstanding. The terms of the demand loan restrict Janix's payment
of dividends to $2 per common share.
6. On January 31, 2021, Janix issued 100,000 new common shares,
raising $2 million in new capital.
7. On January 28, 2021, management settled a dispute with the union
of its factory workers. A strike had started on November 14, 2020.
A portion of the settlement involved a lump sum payment to each
worker in lieu of a retroactive adjustment in pay rate dating back
to the beginning of the strike.
Janix prepares financial statements in accordance with IFRS.
Instructions
For each item above, indicate whether the event relates to a
provision, contingency, commitment, or subsequent event, and
