Whispering Corporation acquires a coal mine at a cost of $444,000. Intangible development costs total $111,000. After extraction has occurred, Whispering must restore the property (estimated fair value of the obligation is $88,800), after which it can be sold for $177,600. Whispering estimates that 4,440 tons of coal can be extracted. If 839 tons are extracted the first year, prepare the journal entry to record depletion.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Debit Depletion Expense   $88,095

Credit   Accumulated Depreciation for Coal Mine   $88,095

Being the record of the depletion expense on the acquired coal Mine.

Explanation:

Step 1: Compute the depletion expense for the coal mine  for that first year

Formula= (Depreciable Cost/ Total Quantity of Coals) x The Quantity of Extracted Coals

Depreciable Cost= Cost of the Coal Mine - Value that can be salvaged

Cost of Coal Mine = Cost of Acquisition + Intangible Development Costs + Fair Value of Obligation

Cost of Coal Mine = $444,000 + $111,000 + $88,800 = $643,800

Depreciable Cost = $643,800 - $177,600

= $466,200

Depletion Expense based on Formula

= ($643,800/4,440 tons) x 839 tons extracted the first year

= $88,095

Step 2: Prepare the Journal Entry for the Depletion

Debit Depletion Expense   $88,095

Credit   Accumulated Depreciation for Coal Mine   $88,095

Being the record of the depletion expense on the acquired coal Mine.

Please Note:

Depletion Expense is the expense that is usually incurred when utilizing natural resources such as coal and it is usually charged as expense against profit

The Total cost of coal Mine is a sum of all relevant costs including cost of acquisition, fair value of obligation and intangible development costs.

Comparative advantage (production ability at lower opportunity cost) implies: Economy can produce a good/ service by sacrifising lesser amount of other good, than the other economy.

Example : Production Possibilities of 2 countries, 2 goods :-

                   Good X       Good Y     Opportunity Cost (Goods Ratio)

Country A     10                30               1:3    (10/30)

Country B      5                 10                1:2   (5/10)

Country A can produce Good Y by sacrifising 3 units of Good X, Country B can produce Good Y by sacrifising 2 units of Good X. So, B can produce good Y at lesser opportunity cost than A. Hence, country B has comparative advantage in good Y.

Answer:

a. $2,700

b. Revenue   = $7,500 and Expenses = $4,800

c. $37,700

d. Revenue = $93,500 and Expenses = $55,800

e.  $37,700

f. Revenue   = $0 and Expenses = $0

Explanation:

a. Balance in the Retained Earnings account as of January 31, Year 1.

Revenue                    $7,500

Less Expenses        ($4,800)

Net Profit                   $2,700

Retained Earnings Balance = Opening Retained Earnings + Profit - Dividends

                                             = $ 0 + $2,700 - $ 0

                                             = $2,700

b. Balance in the Revenue and Expense accounts as of January 31, Year 1.

Revenue   = $7,500

Expenses = $4,800

c. Balance in the Retained Earnings account as of December 31, Year 1, before closing.

Retained Earnings Balance = Opening Retained Earnings + Profit - Dividends

                                             = $2,700 + ($86,000 - $51,000) - $0

Frankenstein Enterprises received two notes from customers for sales that Frankenstein made in 2013.

What is the annual interest rate on Note A?a) 8.00%b) 9.35%c) 9.95%d) 9.65%

Answers

Answer:

Option B ⇒ The annual interest rate on Note A is  9.35% .

Explanation:

Note B has an accrued interest for six months during 2013: $220,000 x .08 x 6/12 = $8,800.

The remainder of the accrued interest, $7,200 ($16,000 - $8,800) was from Note A, which was held for seven months in 2013.

Therefore, we have the following: $132,000 x annual interest rate x 7/12 = $7,200.

Thus, the annual interest rate on Note A would be ($7,200/132,000) x 12/7 = 9.35%.

Option B ⇒ 9.35% is the correct answer.

An analysis of equity of Hahn Corporation as of January 1, 2012, is as follows: Share capital—ordinary, par value P20; authorized 100,000 shares; issued and outstanding 90,000 shares P1,800,000 Share premium—ordinary 900,000 Retained earnings 760,000 Total P3,460,000 Hahn uses the cost method of accounting for treasury shares and during 2010 entered into the following transactions: Acquired 2,500 of its shares for P75,000. Sold 2,000 treasury shares at P35 per share. Sold the remaining treasury shares at P20 per share. Assuming no other equity transactions occurred during 2012, what should Hahn report at December 31, 2012, as total share premium?

Answers

Answer:

P905,000

Explanation:

Initial share premium - ordinary = P900,000

Total share premium = P900,000 + (2,000 * P5) - (500 * P10) = P900,000 + P10,000 - P5,000 = P905,000

Therefore, Hahn should report P905,000 as total share premium at December 31, 2012.
