McAdams Company had the following inventory cost values for one item of inventory for April:

Date Activity Units Purchased Cost/Unit Total Cost
Apr. 1 BI 400 $14 $5,600
Apr. 8 Purchase 2,200 16 35,200
Apr. 25 Purchase 600 18 10,800
Apr. 30 Purchase 800 20 16,000

Available for sale: Units purchased = 4,000; Total cost = $67,600

Sales Activity:

Apr. 19.....1,200 units

Apr. 26.....1,400 units

Units sold = 2,600

Units remaining in EI

Available for sale..........4,000 units

Units sold.....................2,600

Ending inventory in units.....1,400

Instructions

Determine both Ending Inventory (EI) and Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) under each of the following methods and then calculate gross profit under each, assuming that the selling price per unit was $25 for all units sold.

Method EI COGS Gross Profit
FIFO, periodic 10,800 + 16,000 = 26,800 67600 - 26,800 = 40,800 65,000 - 40,800 = 24,200
FIFO, perpetual 26,800 40,800 24,200
LIFO, periodic 5,600 + 16,000 = 21,600 35,200 + 10,800 = 46,000 65,000 - 46,000 = 19,000
LIFO, perpetual ???(enter formula, not just answers) ??? ???
Weighted-average 16.90 * 1,400 = 23,660 16.90 * 2,600 = 43,940 65,000 - 43,940 = 21,060
Moving- average ???? (enter formula, not just answers) ???? ????


Weighted-average cost per unit = 67,600/4,000 = $16.90

Sales Revenue = 2,600 units sold * 25 = 65,000

Sales revenue - COGS = Gross Profit

The Gourmand Cooking School runs short cooking courses at its small campus. Management has identified two cost drivers it uses in its budgeting and performance reports—the number of courses and the total number of students. For example, the school might run two courses in a month and have a total of 62 students enrolled in those two courses. Data concerning the company’s cost formulas appear below:

Fixed Cost per Month Cost per Course Cost per
Student
Instructor wages $ 2,950
Classroom supplies $ 270
Utilities $ 1,240 $ 55
Campus rent $ 4,600
Insurance $ 2,400
Administrative expenses $ 3,700 $ 41 $ 4

For example, administrative expenses should be $3,700 per month plus $41 per course plus $4 per student. The company’s sales should average $850 per student.

The company planned to run four courses with a total of 62 students; however, it actually ran four courses with a total of only 54 students. The actual operating results for September appear below:

Actual
Revenue $ 49,800
Instructor wages $ 11,080
Classroom supplies $ 16,590
Utilities $ 1,870
Campus rent $ 4,600
Insurance $ 2,540
Administrative expenses $ 3,538

Required:

Prepare a flexible budget performance report that shows both revenue and spending variances and activity variances for September. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Chris P. Bacon is the chief accountant for CV Industries, a large manufacturing company. In addition to its normal business activities, the company has excess warehouse space that it rents out to local businesses. Because the typical renter is a small business, CV Industries requires renters to make lease payments for the entire rental period on the day the lease is signed. As a result, CV Industries typically reports a large unearned rent balance on its balance sheet.

After making adjusting entries for the current year, Chris prepares the adjusted trial balance and notices that the company's earnings will decline significantly. He presents the adjusted trial balance to the company's CFO, Antonio Beldin, who is concerned about the earnings decline. Mr. Beldin notices the large unearned rent balance and proposes making an additional end-of-period adjusting entry to recognize the entire unearned rent balance as revenue in the current period. Chris protests, reminding Mr. Beldin that the adjusting entry for unearned rent has already been made. Mr. Beldin assures Chris that his proposal is acceptable, reminding Chris that “because we have already received the cash, we have the right to recognize the revenue in the current period.” He instructs Chris to make the additional adjusting journal entry. Chris is hesitant to follow these instructions, but he is sensitive to the company's emphasis on earnings growth and makes the adjusting entry as instructed.

Is Chris behaving ethically? Please let us know why or why not? Who is affected by Chris's decision?
