Steven Black and Christopher Green are seeking funds to support the programmed growth of their deluxe Hot Dog menu-restricted restaurant. First year (2019) Sales were $705,000. Sales are projected to increase to $1,320,000 in 2020. The business operating financial model indicates that each hot dog “meal” will sell for $3; and the variable cost of producing the “meal” (CGS) will be $1.50. The company needed $400,000 in assets to support its 2019 operations and expects to need $100,000 MORE (a total of $ 500,000) to support projected 2020 Sales.

High Average Low
Gross Margin >50% 10%--50% <20%
AT margin >20% 10%--20% <10%

Margins:
Use of Assets:
How would your EVALUATION change if the 2019 Asset level will support Annual Sales growth of 50% per year in 2020? (That means the company had excess capacity in 2019 and more assets would not be required to support shortterm projected growth.)

Lala Corporation produces Greek yogurts that pass through three departments – Fermentation Department (Department I), Mixing Department (Department II), and Packaging Department (Department III). The production process in the Mixing Department requires the input of two main types of ingredients. One is the basic ingredients and the other one is the special ingredients. 100% of the basic ingredients are added at the beginning of the process. For the special ingredients, they are added gradually. 30% of these special ingredients are added at the beginning of the process, 50% are added midway through the process and the remainder of the special ingredients are added at the three-quarter way through the process. The following information was available concerning the operation of the Mixing Department for the month of October 2020. Beginning work-in process (WIP) (1 October 2020): 2,500 units were 40% completed with respect to conversion costs (CC). Costs pertaining to the beginning WIP as at 1 October 2020 were: Department I $10,000, Basic Ingredients $30,000, Special Ingredients $15,000 and CC $10,000. Units started in the month were 15,000 units. Costs added to production during the month of October 2020 were: Department I $60,000, Basic Ingredients $188,750, Special Ingredients $203,400, and CC $154,500. Ending WIP as at 31 October 2020 were 3,500 units and 70% completed with respect to CC. Required:
a) Use of the weighted average (WA) process costing method, calculate 1) the units completed in October 2020. 2) the equivalent units for the Special Ingredients. 3) the total costs per equivalent unit. 4) the total costs of completed products transferred to the Packaging Department.
b) Use the first-in-first-out (FIFO) process costing method, calculate 5) the units completed in October 2020. 6) the equivalent units for the Special Ingredients. 7) the total costs per equivalent unit. viii) the total costs of completed products transferred to the Packaging Department.

On 11 August 2020, Vanya Ho entered into a contract with Diego Toh to renovate her school, The Umbrella Learning Centre and to set up the internet system for the school’s online lessons starting in October. They agreed to the total sum of $100,000 with a 10% deposit of $10,000 to be paid on the signing of the contract. $20,0000 was to be paid upon the design being approved by Vanya Ho. The balance of $70,000 was to be paid on the completion of the renovation works. The contract provided that Diego Toh was to complete the renovation works and handover the school to Vanya Ho not later than 20 September 2020.
The design was approved by Vanya Ho on 18 August 2020. Diego Toh proceeded with the renovation which was completed on 19 September 2020. Vanya inspected the renovation work on 20 September 2020. She was not pleased with the internet system when she tested the wifi connection. The wifi signals were weak and created issues for running the online lessons. Diego Toh explained that his electricians have gone back to Malaysia and would only be back early 2021. He insisted that the renovation works including the setting up of the internet system were in accordance with the design as approved by Vanya.
On 21 September, Vanya Ho called an independent electrician, Klaus Soh, to inspect and advise on internet system. Klaus Soh explained that the internet system was poorly set-up. He quoted $2,000 to rectify the defects which could be completed by 25 September 2020.
On 22 September, Diego Toh contacted Vanya Ho and demanded payment of the balance amount of $70,000. Vanya Ho refused to pay the balance and insisted that Diego Toh rectify the internet system by 26 September 2020.
Advise Diego Toh on the following:
Diego Toh would like to claim the full amount of $70,000. Discuss the LEGAL PRINCIPLES concerning the performance of the contract, APPLY the legal principles, and CONCLUDE on whether Diego Toh could discharge the contract with Vanya Ho and claim the full amount of $70,000.

On January 1, 2019, Vaughn Company, a small machine-tool
manufacturer, acquired for $2,100,000 a piece of new industrial
equipment. The new equipment had a useful life of 5 years, and the
salvage value was estimated to be $83,700. Vaughn estimates that
the new equipment can produce 16,000 machine tools in its first
year. It estimates that production will decline by 2,830 units per
year over the remaining useful life of the equipment.
The following depreciation methods may be used: (1) straight-line,
(2) double-declining-balance, (3) sum-of-the-years’-digits, and (4)
units-of-output. For tax purposes, the class life is 7 years. Use
the MACRS tables for computing depreciation.

New attempt is in progress. Some of the new entries may impact the last attempt grading.Your answer is partially correct.
Compute accumulated depreciation under the following methods: (1) straight-line, (2) double-declining-balance, (3) sum-of-the-years’-digits, and (4) units-of-output for the 3-year period ending December 31, 2021. Ignore present value, income tax, and deferred income tax considerations. (Round cost per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 25.12. Round other intermediate calculations to 6 decimal places, e.g. 1.524687 amd final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,125.)

The following transactions occurred during 2020. Assume that
depreciation of 10% per year is charged on all machinery and 5% per
year on buildings, on a straight-line basis, with no estimated
salvage value. Depreciation is charged for a full year on all fixed
assets acquired during the year, and no depreciation is charged on
fixed assets disposed of during the year.
| Jan. 30 | A building that cost $182,160 in 2003 is torn down to make room for a new building. The wrecking contractor was paid $7,038 and was permitted to keep all materials salvaged. | |
| Mar. 10 | Machinery that was purchased in 2013 for $22,080 is sold for $4,002 cash, f.o.b. purchaser’s plant. Freight of $414 is paid on the sale of this machinery. | |
| Mar. 20 | A gear breaks on a machine that cost $12,420 in 2012. The gear is replaced at a cost of $2,760. The replacement does not extend the useful life of the machine but does make the machine more efficient. | |
| May 18 | A special base installed for a machine in 2014 when the machine was purchased has to be replaced at a cost of $7,590 because of defective workmanship on the original base. The cost of the machinery was $19,596 in 2014. The cost of the base was $4,830, and this amount was charged to the Machinery account in 2014. | |
