Answer:

Dr Retained earnings  $294,000

Cr Dividends payable                   $294,000

Explanation:

The total amount of dividends declared on December 31 2019 is computed thus:

dividends declared=number of common stock issued*dividend per share

number of common issued is 210,000

dividend per share is $1.40

dividends declared=210,000*$1.40

                                 = $294,000.00  

The journal entries to the record the $294,000 is to debit retained earnings since dividend is a reduction to retained earnings which is a component of equity capital and a credit to dividends payable account.

Whitman Company has just completed its first year of operations. The company’s absorption costing income statement for the year
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

1. Preparing Contribution Income statement

Sales = 40,000 units X $42.60 =                                                $1,704,000

Less: Variable Costs

Direct Material = $11 X 40,000 =                                 $440,000

Direct Labor = $3 X 40,000 =                                      $120,000

Variable Manufacturing Overhead = $3 X 40,000 = $120,000

Variable Selling Expenses = $4 X 40,000 =                $160,000

Total Variable Costs =                                                                    ($840,000)

Contribution Margin =                                                                      $864,000

Less: Fixed Costs

Selling & Administrative =                                           $300,000

Manufacturing Overheads =                                       $196,000

Total Fixed Cost =                                                                           ($496,000)

Net Operating Income =                                                                  $368,000

2. Now we have net income as per Contribution statement = $368,000 and net income as per Absorption Costing = $404,000

This difference is because of Fixed Manufacturing Overheads

Under Absorption costing Fixed Manufacturing Overheads charged = $196,000  ÷ 49,000 units = $4 per unit X 40,000 units = $160,000 whereas in contribution statement it is charged fully.

Under absorption costing even fixed costs are charged based on the number of units produced, whereas in income statement is it charged completely irrespective of the units produced as that value is fixed and cannot be avoided on per unit basis.

Difference = $404,000 - $368,000 = $36,000

Manufacturing cost for 9,000 units (49,000 - 40,000) = at the rate of $4 = $36,000

In case cost of fixed manufacturing overhead is reduced by $36,000 then profit will be increased to $368,000 + $36,000 = $404,000 same as of absorption costing.

Suppose that the price of a money clip increases from $0.75 to $0.90 and quantity supplied rises from 8,000 units to 10,000 unit
arsen [322]

Answer:

1.      1.22

Explanation:

P = Price of money clip

S = Supply of money clip

P1 = 0.75

P2 = 0.90

S1 = 8,000

S2 = 10,000

Mid point Formula = [ ( S2- S1 ) / ( P2- P1 ) ] / [ ( ( S2+ S1 ) / 2) / ( ( P2 + P1 )/2 ) ]

Price Elasticity of Supply =  [ ( 10,000- 8,000 ) / ( 0.90- 0.75 ) ] / [ ( ( 10,000+ 8,000 ) / 2) / ( ( 0.90 + 0.75 )/2 ) ]

Price Elasticity of Supply = (2,000 / 0.15) / (9,000 / 0.825)

Price Elasticity of Supply = 13,333.33 / 10909.09

Price Elasticity of Supply = 1.22
