It is November 1 of Year 1. Sales for Corbin Company for November and December of Year 1 and January of Year 2 are forecasted to be as follows: November, 400,000; December 600,000; January, 200,000 On average, cost of goods sold is 70% of sales. During this period, Corbin Company expects inventory levels to remain constant. This means that inventory purchases are expected to equal the amount of cost of goods sold. 40% of purchases are for cash. Of the credit purchases, 5% are paid during the month of the purchase, 65% in the month following the purchase, and 30% in the second month following the purchase. Sales for September and October of Year 1 were 100,000 and 150,000, respectively. What is the forecasted amount of total cash payments for November of Year 1

Answer: $173,950

Explanation:

As this is for November, the relevant months will be September, October and November.

30% of credit sales are paid in the second month following the purchase.

65% are paid in the month following it

5% are paid in the same month.

For November therefore, the cash payments will be;

= 30% of September + 65% of October + 5% of November

September

Purchases = 70% * 100,000 = $70,000

Credit Purchases = 60% * 70,000 = $42,000

October

Purchases = 150,000 * 70% = $105,000

Credit Purchases = 105,000 * 60% = $63,000

November

Purchases = 400,000 * 70% =$280,000

Credit Purchases = 280,000 * 60% = $168,000

Cash Payments in November for credit purchases = (30% * 42,000) + (65% * 63,000) + (5% * 168,000)

= $‭61,950‬

Remember that 40% of purchases in a month are paid for in cash. The total cash payment for November is;

Total cash payments in November = Cash payment for credit purchases + Cash payment for purchases bought in cash in November

= 61,950 + ( 40% * 280,000)

= $173,950

Middle management is the intermediate management level accountable to top management and responsible for leading lower level managers. Which of the following is not a typical function of middle management? Middle management is at the center of a hierarchical organization, subordinate to the senior management but above the lowest levels of operational staff. Middle managers are accountable to top management for their department’s function. They provide guidance to lower-level managers and inspire them to perform better. Middle managers balance a functional or technical understanding of those who report to them with the interpersonal skills of a manager. This form of leadership requires a strong ability to communicate, mentor, train, hire, organize, optimize processes, and prioritize. Middle-management functions generally revolve around enabling teams of workers to perform effectively and efficiently and reporting these performance indicators to upper management. Middle management may be reduced in organizations as a result of reorganization. Such changes can take the form of downsizing," delayering," and outsourcing.

Southwest Airlines is able to keep fares low, in part because of relatively low maintenance costs on its airplanes. One of the main reasons for the low maintenance costs is that Southwest flies only one type of aircraft: the Boeing 737. However, Southwest flies three different versions of the 737. Suppose Southwest decides to conduct a study to determine whether there is a significant difference in the average annual maintenance costs for the three types of 737s used. a. State a measurable dependent variable for such a study. b. State a factor that might affect the independent variable, and list at least three levels.

EcoFabrics has budgeted overhead costs of $945,000. It has allocated overhead on a plantwide basis to its two products (wool and cotton) using direct labor hours which are estimated to be 450,000 for the current year. The company has decided to experiment with activity-based costing and has created two activity cost pools and related activity cost drivers. These two cost pools are cutting (cost driver is machine hours) and design (cost driver is number of setups). Overhead allocated to the cutting cost pool is $360,000, and $585,000 is allocated to the design cost pool.Additional information related to these pools is as follows:Machine hours wool: 100,000Number of set ups wool: 1,000Machine hours cotton: 100,000Number of set ups cotton: 500Machine hours total: 200,000Number of setups total: 1,500The amount of overhead allocated to the wool product line and the cotton product line using activity-based costing & traditional approach is as follows:ABC wool: $570,000Traditional wool: $472,500ABC cotton: $375,000Traditional cotton: $472,500Required:How does allocation using the traditional approach compare with the amount allocated using ABC?

Calculating the Predetermined Overhead Rate, Applying Overhead to Production, Reconciling Overhead at the End of the Year, Adjusting Cost of Goods Sold for Under- and Overapplied Overhead At the beginning of the year, Han Company estimated the following: Overhead $582,400 Direct labor hours 80,000 Han uses normal costing and applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. For the month of January, direct labor hours were 6,950. By the end of the year, Han showed the following actual amounts: Overhead $613,320 Direct labor hours 84,100 Assume that unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold for Han was $927,000.
Required:
1. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate for Han. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ per direct labor hour
2. Calculate the overhead applied to production in January. (Note: Round to the nearest dollar.) $
3. Calculate the total applied overhead for the year. $ Was overhead over- or underapplied? By how much? overhead $
4. Calculate adjusted Cost of Goods Sold after adjusting for the overhead variance.

Garvey's Fine Furnishings manufactures upscale custom furniture. currently uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours to allocate its of manufacturing overhead to individual jobs.​ However, ​, owner and​ CEO, is considering refining the​ company's costing system by using departmental overhead rates.​ Currently, the Machining Department incurs of manufacturing overhead while the Finishing Department incurs of manufacturing overhead. has identified machine hours​ (MH) as the primary manufacturing overhead cost driver in the Machining Department and direct labor​ (DL) hours as the primary cost driver in the Finishing Department.
Requirement 1. Compute the plantwide overhead rate assuming that Garvey's expects to incur 30,000 total DL hours during the year First identify the formula, then compute the rate.
Total manufacturing overhead / Cost allocation base = Plantwide overhead
(estimated) rate
$1,290,000 / 30,000 = 43
Requirement 2. Compute departmental overhead rates assuming that Garvey's expects to incur 14,500 MH in the Machining Department and 17,500 DL hours in the Finishing Department during the year. First identify the formula, then compute the rate for each department.
Total department / Cost allocation base = Departmental
overhead (estimated) overhead rate
Machining 870,000 / 14,500 = 60 per mach hour
Finishing 420,000 / 17,500 = 24 per DL hour
Requirement 3. If Garvey's continues to use the plantwide overhead rate, how much manufacturing overhead would be allocated to Job 450 and Job 455? Identify th formula, then calculate the amount of manufacturing overhead that would be allocated to the jobs if the plantwide overhead rate is used.
Actual use of Manufacturing overhead
Plantwide overhead rate x allocation base = allocated
Job 450 43 x 5 = 215
Job 455 43 x 5 = 215
Requirement 4. Based on your answers to Requirements 2 and 3, does the plantwide overhead rate overcost or undercost either job? Explain. If Garvey's sells its furniture at 125% of cost, will its choice of allocation systems affect product pricing? Explain.
The single plantwide rate undercosts Job 450 by $1 and undercosts Job 455 by $216.

Andrew plans to retire in 40 years. He plans to invest part of his retirement funds in stocks, so he seeks out information on past returns. He learns that over the entire 20th century, the real (that is, adjusted for inflation) annual returns on U.S. common stocks had mean 8.7% and standard deviation 20.2%. The distribution of annual returns on common stocks is roughly symmetric, so the mean return over even a moderate number of years is close to Normal. What is the probability (assuming that the past pattern of variation continues) that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 10%
