Titon Sports, which produces footballs, has two departments: cutting and stitching. Footballs that have undergone the cutting pr

ocess are immediately transferred to the stitching department. Direct material is added at the end of the stitching process. Conversion costs are added evenly during stitching operations. When those operations are done, the footballs are immediately transferred to Finished Goods. The following is a summary of the March 2019 operations of the stitching department:

b. Conversion cost per equivalent unit during March

                  Total Conversion Costs/ Total Equivalent Units Conversion

                 = 199920 / 73500 = 2.72

C. Cost Assigned To Transferred Out Goods $ 268,320

Materials = 52,000*0.54= $ 28080

Conversion = 52,000* 1.9=  98800

Transferred in Units = 2.72 * 52000= 141440

Cost Assigned To Ending Work In Process $66650

Conversion = 4300* 1.9=  8170

Transferred in Units = 2.72 * 21500= 58,480

C. Total Costs Assigned = Transferred Out + Ending = <u>$334970</u>

d.  Conversion cost assigned to the ending work in process: $8170

Conversion = 4300* 1.9=  8170

<em>We see the difference between the weighted average and FIFO method is that the FIFO method only accounts for the current period costs not the total the costs.Where as the weighted method includes all the costs from preceeding department and also current costs.</em>

Mr. and Mrs. Napper are interested in funding their children's college education by taking out a home equity loan in the amount
FrozenT [24]

Explanation:

Given that

Amount of equity loan = $24,000

Appraisal value of home = $110,000

Using percentage = 70%

Owed amount = $60,000

By considering the above information,

As we know that for the borrowing purpose, only 70% is eligible i.e

= $110,000 × 70%

= $77,000

So, the highest credit limit would be

= $77,000 - $60,000

= $17,000

So, there is no enough residual value left for $24,000 equity loan

2. By seeing the credit rating, income of a person, the lender could is willing to offer them additional amount i.e $7,000 that is come from subtracting the $17,000 from the $24,000 equity loan amount

Frederick W. Taylor is speaking to a friend about scientific management. Which of the following statements might Frederick say?
zvonat [6]

Answer:

(A) The best way to increase your workers' productivity is to study their movements carefully. Figure out the fastest way to get the job done correctly, and then train all of the employees to do it the same way.

(B) Are you promoting people just because you like them? Try having managers make promotion decisions solely on the basis of a person's technical ability to do the work.

Explanation:

<em>Scientific Management theory</em> laid out by <em>Frederick W. Taylor</em> focuses on <em>effective (best) and efficient (less costly)</em> way of getting the work done.

(1) Statement A focuses on <em>motion and time studies</em> respectively.

In <em>motion studies</em>, we are concerned with elimination of unnecessary movements and activities required to perform a job. For eg, in order to manufacture 100 packets of biscuits, 5 processes are required but the processes currently used are 10, so 5 processes must be eliminated in order to save time and costs.

<em>Time studies</em> implies setting up time for performing a particular work activity. The time must be same for all the workers and could be based on the past factory time data of the activity. For eg, an average time per worker can be calculated for the activity taking into consideration the total time spent by total no. of workers on a particular work activity.

(2) Statement B focuses on promoting the persons based on their technical ability to do the work.

<em>Differential piece wage system</em> of F.W. Taylor applies perfectly to this statement. It prescribes paying workers as per the work done by them. For eg, a worker producing 15 units of a good per day would be paid $ 12 a unit, let's suppose and the worker producing less than that would be paid $ 10 a unit. So, the workers producing 15 and more units of a good, have higher technical ability with respect to the production of that good and hence, higher pay. The workers producing less than 15 units have lower technical ability and hence lower pay.

(3) Statement 3 relates to the administrative principle of "Unity of Command" laid out by Henry Fayol and hence, is not the solution statement.

Grace [21]

Answer:

Total material variance= $1,980 unfavorable

Direct material quantity variance= $1,260 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= $1,260 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Simba Company's standard materials cost per unit of output is $10.50 (2.50 pounds x $4.20). During July, the company purchases and uses 2,700 pounds of materials costing $14,580 in making 1,200 units of the finished product.

The total variance is the difference between the estimated total cost for 1,200 units and the actual cost:

Total material variance= total estimated cost - total actual cost

Total material variance= (2.5*4.20*1,200) - 14,580= 1,980 unfavorable

Now, we can dissect the variance in price and quantity:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (4.2 - 14580/2,700)*2,700

Direct material price variance= (4.2 - 5.4)*2,700= 3,240 unfavorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (2.5*1,200 - 2,700)*4.2

Direct material quantity variance= (3,000 - 2,700)*4.2= $1,260 favorable

Total variance= 3,240 unfavorable - 1,260 favorable= 1,980 unfavorable

Setler [38]

Answer: The answer is provided and attached below.

Explanation:

The explanation for number 1 and 3 has been attached.

2. The break even point is level of production whereby a company makes no profit or loss. When a company operates below the break even point, the company makes a loss and when a company operates above this level, the company make a profit. The higher the level, the higher the profit.

Therefore, from a cost point of view, Miller restaurant and every other company wants to operate at the full or near full capacity in order to earn higher level of profit. At this point, the fixed costs have been recovered, and every additional unit makes up the profit of the company.
