An entry to Gross Profit does not exist because the gross profit it's the result of the total sales minus the Cost of Goods, so the Gross Profit it's a result and not a journal entry.

The other entries are used as follows:

A. A debit to cost of goods sold

Swifty Company purchased equipment for $256,800 on October 1, 2020. It is estimated that the equipment will have a useful life of 8 years and a salvage value of $12,000. Estimated production is 48,000 units and estimated working hours are 20,400. During 2020, Swifty uses the equipment for 600 hours and the equipment produces 1,000 units. Required:

a. Straight-line method for 2020 $enter a dollar amount.
b. Activity method (units of output) for 2020 $enter a dollar amount.
c. Activity method (working hours) for 2020 $enter a dollar amount.
d. Sum-of-the-years'-digits method for 2022 $enter a dollar amount (e) Double-declining-balance method for 2021

Answers

Answer:

a.  Straight line method.

Depreciation per annum = ($ 256,800 - $12,000 ) / 8 = $ 30,600.

Depreciation for 2020 = $ 30,600 * ( 3 /12 ) = $ 7,650.

b. Units of output

Depreciation per unit = ( $ 256,800 - $ 12,000 ) / 48,000 = $ 5.1

Depreciation for 2020 = 1,000 * $ 5.1 = $ 5,100.

c. Working hours.

Depreciation per hours = ( $ 256,800 - $ 12,000 ) / 20,400 = $ 12

Depreciation for 2020 = 600 * $ 12 = $ 7,200.

D. Sum of digits method

Sum of years = 8 ( 8 +1 ) / 2 = 36.

Year - 1 used ( 3 / 12 = 0.25)

Year-2 used ( 12 / 12 = 1 )

Remaining ( 8 - 1 - 0.25 = 6.75)

Depreciation for 2022 = ($ 256,800 - $ 12,000 ) * ( 6.75 / 36 )

Depreciation for 2022 = $ 45,900.

e. Double declining balance

Depreciation rate = 200 / 8 = 25 %.

Depreciation for 2020 = $256,800 * 25 % * (3 /12)

Depreciation for 2020 = $16,050.  

Depreciation for 2021 = ( $256,800 - $ 16,050) * 25%

Depreciation for 2021 = $60,188.

The Molding Department of Kennett Company has the following production data: beginning work in process 25,000 units (60% complete), started into production 425,000 units, completed and transferred out 400,000 units, and ending work in process 50,000 units (40% complete). Assuming materials are entered at the beginning of the process, equivalent units for materials are:______________.

Answers

Answer:

450,000 units

Explanation:

This question asks to calculate the equivalent units of materials. It must be known that equivalent units are calculated by multiplying the number of physical units by percentage of completion.

The question assumes that materials are entered at the beginning of the process.

Mathematically, the equivalent units for materials = started into production + Beginning work in process

= 25,000 units + 425,000 units = 450,000 units

At December 31, 2018, Novak Corp. Company had a credit balance of $ 18,000 in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. During 2019, Novak Corp. wrote off accounts totaling $ 13,300. One of those accounts ($ 3,200) was later collected. At December 31, 2019, an aging schedule indicated that the balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts should be $ 27,200. Prepare journal entries to record the 2019 transactions of Novak Corp. Company

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

1. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts A/c Dr $ 13,300

      To Accounts receivable A/c $ 13,300

(Being written off amount is recorded)

2. Accounts receivable A/c Dr  $3,200

      To  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts A/c $3,200

(Being reverse written off)

3. Cash A/c Dr  $3,200

        To Accounts receivable A/c  $3,200

(Being amount collected)

4. Bad debt expense A/c Dr   $19,300

           To Allowance for doubtful debts   $19,300

(Being bad debt expense is recorded)

The computation of the bad debt expense is shown below:

Ending balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts = Beginning balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts + 2019 bad debts - 2019 write off amount  + collected amount

$27,200 = $18,000 + 2019 bad debts - $13,300 + $3,200

$27,200 = $7,900+ 2019 bad debts  

So,2019 bad debts = $27,200 - $7,900 = $19,300

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "E": hold a weekly "employee appreciation" party.

Explanation:

Organizational commitment plays a key role in employees' performance. The more engaged workers are with the company they work for, the more likely their production is going to be higher. Affective commitment refers to increasing the bonds that link workers within the organization. Casual reunions after every period of time are one of the many activities firms could use to engage employees with their brand.

The U.S. Army has approached Klean Fiber and expressed an interest in purchasing 250,500 Y-Go undergarments for soldiers in extremely warm climates. The Army would pay the unit cost for direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead costs. In addition, the Army has agreed to pay an additional $1.02 per undergarment to cover all other costs and provide a profit. Presently, Klean Fiber is operating at 70% capacity and does not have any other potential buyers for Y-Go. If Klean Fiber accepts the Army's offer, it will not incur any variable selling expenses related to this order.
