ACCT 505 Week 1 Case Study (Devry)

Top Switch Inc. designs and manufactures switches used in
telecommunications. Serious flooding throughoutthe state of
Tennessee affected Top Switch’s facilities. Inventory was completely
ruined, and the company’s computer system, including all accounting
records, was destroyed.
Before the unfortunate incident, recovery specialists cleaned the
buildings. The company controller is very nervous and anxious to
recover whatever records he can to support the insurance claim for
the destroyed inventory. After consulting with the cost accountant,
they decide to retrieve the previous year’s annual report for the
beginning inventory numbers. In addition, they also agreed that they
need first quarter cost data.
The cost accountant was working on the first quarter results before
the storm hit, and to his surprise, the report was still in his desk
drawer. After reviewing the data , the information shows the
following information: Material purchases were $ 325,000; Direct
Labor was $ 220,000. Further discussions between the controller and
the cost accountant revealed that sales were $ 1,350,000 and the
gross margin was 30% of sales. The cost accountant also discovered,
while sifting through the information, that cost of goods available for
sale was $ 1,020,000 at cost. While assessing the damage, the
controller determined that the prime costs were $ 545,000 up to the
time of the damage and that manufacturing overhead is 65% of
conversion cost. The cost accountant is not sure about all of this, but
he decides to see what he can do with the information.
The beginning inventory numbers are as follows:
Raw Materials, $ 41,000
Work in Process, $ 56,000
Finished Goods, $ 35,000
Required:
Determine the amount of cost in the Raw Materials, Work in Process,
and Finished Goods Inventory as of the date of the storm. ( Hint: You

may wish to reconstruct the various schedules and statements that
would have been affected by the company’s accounts during the
period.)

ACCT 505 Week 2 Case 3-29 Ethics and the Manager
CASE 3–29 Ethics and the Manager [Course Objective B] Terri Ronsin
had recently been transferred to the Home Security Systems Division
of National Home Products. Shortly after taking over her new position
as divisional controller, she was asked to develop the division’s
predetermined overhead rate for the upcoming year. The accuracy of
the rate is important because it is used throughout the year and any
overapplied or underapplied overhead is closed out to Cost of Goods
Sold at the end of the year. National Home Products uses direct
labor-hours in all of its divisions as the allocation base for
manufacturing overhead.

To compute the predetermined overhead rate, Terri divided her
estimate of the total manufacturing overhead for the coming year by
the production manager’s estimate of the total direct labor-hours for
the coming year. She took her computations to the division’s general
manager for approval but was quite surprised when he suggested a
modification in the base. Her conversation with the general manager
of the Home Security Systems Division, Harry Irving, went like this:
Ronsin: Here are my calculations for next year’s predetermined
overhead rate. If you approve, we can enter the rate into the
computer on January 1 and be up and running in the job-order
costing system right away this year.
Irving: Thanks for coming up with the calculations so quickly, and
they look just fine. There is, however, one slight modification I
would like to see. Your estimate of the total direct labor-hours for the
year is 440,000 hours. How about cutting that to about 420,000
hours?
Ronsin: I don’t know if I can do that. The production manager says
she will need about 440,000 direct labor-hours to meet the sales
projections for the year. Besides, there are going to be over 430,000
direct labor-hours during the current year and sales are projected to
be higher next year.
Irving: Teri, I know all of that. I would still like to reduce the direct
labor-hours in the base to some- thing like 420,000 hours. You
probably don’t know that I had an agreement with your predecessor
as divisional controller to shave 5% or so off the estimated direct
labor-hours every year. That way, we kept a reserve that usually
resulted in a big boost to net operating income at the end of the fiscal
year in December. We called it our Christmas bonus. Corporate
headquarters always seemed as pleased as punch that we could pull

off such a miracle at the end of the year. This system has worked well
for many years, and I don’t want to change it now.
Required:
Assume the following information:
Direct Materials $40 per unit
Direct Labor $20 per unit
Total Estimated Manufacturing Overhead
$8,400,000
Manufacturing overhead is allocated based on estimated direct-labor
hours.
Each unit of product requires 1 direct labor hour.
1. Calculate the cost of one unit of product, assuming that the
overhead per unit is based on Terri Ronson’s estimate of 440,000
hours. (Round all dollar figures to two decimal places.)
a. If 441,000 units were produced, how much overhead was applied
to work in process.
2. Calculate the cost of one unit of product, assuming that the
overhead per unit is based on her supervisors preferred estimate of
420,000 hours. (Round all dollar figures to two decimal places.)
a. If 441,000 units were produced, how much overhead was applied
to work in process.

3. During the year, the company produced and sold 441,000 units,
and incurred actual overhead of $8,500,000, what is the
under/overapplied overhead if:
a. The estimated Direct Labor Hours is 440,000.
b. The estimated Direct Labor Hours is 420,000.
c. All over-applied and under-applied overhead applied directly to
cost of goods sold. Assume that the company had $1,000,000 in net
operating income before the over/under applied overhead
adjustment is made. What is the revised net income after the
over/underapplied overhead adjustment?
4. Should Terri Ronson go along with the general manager’s request
to reduce the direct labor hours in the predetermined overhead rate
computation to 420,000 hours? Be sure to discuss the operational
and ethical issues related to this decision.
Deliverables:
1. Submit an Excel spreadsheet that documents the calculations
made for steps 1-3 above. All items should be clearly labeled, and
appropriate formulas should be used to perform your calculations.
2. For step 4, submit a 5-7 minute narrated PowerPoint (preferably
using VoiceThread) that highlights your discussion of the operational
and ethical issues that Teri is facing as a result of the request to
reduce the direct labor hours. Be sure to make a recommendation in
regard to making this decision. The presentation should be 3-4 slides.
3. Post your PowerPoint and workbook on behalf of your team to the
Week 2 Dropbox for the case study.

4. NOTE: as a team project, a team collaboration tool (such as Cisco
Spark) should be used for the students to collaborate on the project!

ACCT 505 Week 3 Case Study 4–20 Ethics and the Manager
CASE 4–20 Ethics and the Manager, Understanding the Impact of
Percentage Completion on Profit—Weighted-Average Method
[Course Objective B] Gary Stevens and Mary James are production
managers in the Consumer Electronics Division of General Electronics
Company, which has several dozen plants scattered in locations
throughout the world. Mary manages the plant located in Des
Moines, Iowa, while Gary manages the plant in El Segundo,
California. Production managers are paid a salary and get an
additional bonus equal to 5% of their base salary if the entire division
meets or exceeds its target profits for the year. The bonus is
determined in March after the company’s annual report has been
prepared and issued to stockholders.

Shortly after the beginning of the New Year, Mary received a phone
call from Gary that went like this:
Gary: How’s it going, Mary?
Mary: Fine, Gary. How’s it going with you?
Gary: Great! I just got the preliminary profit figures for the division
for last year and we are within $200,000 of making the year’s target
profits. All we have to do is pull a few strings, and we’ll be over the
top!
Mary: What do you mean? Gary: Well, one thing that would be easy
to change is your estimate of the percentage completion of your
ending work in process inventories. Mary: I don’t know if I can do
that, Gary. Those percentage completion figures are supplied by Tom
Winthrop, my lead supervisor, who I have always trusted to provide
us with good estimates.
Besides, I have already sent the percentage completion figures to
corporate headquarters. Gary: You can always tell them there was
a mistake. Think about it, Mary. All of us managers are doing as
much as we can to pull this bonus out of the hat. You may not want
the bonus check, but the rest of us sure could use it.
The final processing department in Mary’s production facility began
the year with no work in process inventories. During the year,
210,000 units were transferred in from the prior processing
department and 200,000 units were completed and sold. Costs
transferred in from the prior department totaled $39,375,000. No
materials are added in the final processing department. A total of
$20,807,500 of conversion cost was incurred in the final processing
department during the year.

Required:
1. Tom Winthrop estimated that the units in ending inventory in
the final processing department were 30% complete with respect to
the conversion costs of the final processing department. If this
estimate of the percentage completion is used, what would be the
Cost of Goods Sold for the year? (Note: Since all units completed were
sold, the cost of goods transferred out = Cost of Goods Sold.)
2. Gary is recommending that the completion percentage by
adjusted by 10 percentage points in order to assist the team in
making their bonus.
a. Calculate the cost of goods sold if the ending inventory is 20%
complete in regard to conversion costs. Would net income
increase or decrease if this option was chosen over the 30%
completion percentage? How much is the increase?
b. Calculate the cost of goods sold if the ending inventory is 40%
complete in regard to conversion costs. Would net income
increase or decrease if this option was chosen over the 30%
completion percentage? How much is the increase?
c. Based on your calculations, which percentage is Gary
suggesting that Mary use for her ending inventory calculations.
3. Do you think Mary James should go along with the
request to alter estimates of the percentage completion? Why
or why not?

ACCT 505 Week 3 Case Study II (Devry)

Springfield Express is a luxury passenger carrier in Texas. All seats
are first class, and the following data are available:
Number of seats per passenger train car
90
Average load factor (percentage of seats filled)
70%
Average full passenger fare
$160
Average variable cost per passenger
$70
Fixed operating cost per month
$3,150,000
What is the break-even point in passengers and revenues per month?
What is the break-even point in number of passenger train cars per
month? If Springfield Express raises its average passenger fare to $
190, it is estimated that the average load factor will decrease to 60
percent. What will be the monthly break-even point in number of
passenger cars? (Refer to original data.) Fuel cost is a significant
variable cost to any railway. If crude oil increases by $ 20 per barrel,
it is estimated that variable cost per passenger will rise to $ 90. What
will be the new break-even point in passengers and in number of
passenger train cars? Springfield Express has experienced an
increase in variable cost per passenger to $ 85 and an increase in
total fixed cost to $ 3,600,000. The company has decided to raise the
average fare to $ 205. If the tax rate is 30 percent, how many
passengers per month are needed to generate an after-tax profit of $
750,000? (Use original data). Springfield Express is considering
offering a discounted fare of $ 120, which the company believes
would increase the load factor to 80 percent. Only the additional
seats would be sold at the discounted fare. Additional monthly
advertising cost would be $ 180,000. How much pre-tax income
would the discounted fare provide Springfield Express if the company
has 50 passenger train cars per day, 30 days per month? Springfield
Express has an opportunity to obtain a new route that would be
traveled 20 times per month. The company believes it can sell seats at

$ 175 on the route, but the load factor would be only 60 percent.
Fixed cost would increase by $ 250,000 per month for additional
personnel, additionalpassenger train cars, maintenance, and so on.
Variable cost per passenger would remain at $ 70. Should the
company obtain the route? How many passenger train cars must
Springfield Express operate to earn pre-tax income of $ 120,000 per
month on this route? If the load factor could be increased to 75
percent, how many passenger train cars must be operated to earn
pre-tax income of $ 120,000 per month on this route? What
qualitative factors should be considered by Springfield Express in
making its decision about acquiring this route?

ACCT 505 Week 5 Course Project 1 LBJ Company (New)
COURSE PROJECT 1 INSTRUCTIONS
You have just been contracted as a budget consultant by LBJ
Company, a distributor of bracelets to various retail outlets across
the country. The company has done very little in the way of budgeting
and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash.
You have decided to prepare a cash budget for the upcoming fourth
quarter in order to show management the benefits that can be gained
from proper cash planning. You have worked with accounting and
other areas to gather the information assembled below.
The company sells many styles of bracelets, but all are sold for the
same $10 price. Actual sales of bracelets for the last three months
and budgeted sales for the next six months follow:

The concentration of sales in the fourth quarter is due to the
Christmas holiday. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end
of each month to supply 40% of the bracelets sold in the following
month.
Suppliers are paid $4 for each bracelet. Fifty-percent of a month's
purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other 50% is paid
for in the following month. All sales are on credit with no discounts.
The company has found, however, that only 20% of a month's sales
are collected in the month of sale. An additional70% is collected in
the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the
second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible.
Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below:
Variable expenses:
Sales commissions 4% of sales
Fixed expenses:
Advertising $220,000
Rent $20,000
Salaries $110,000
Utilities $10,000
Insurance $5,000
Depreciation $18,000
Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in January of each year.
The company plans to purchase $22,000 in new equipment during
October and $50,000 in new equipment during November; both
purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of
$20,000 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following
quarter.
Other relevant data is given below:
Cash balance as of September 30 $74,000
Inventory balance as of September 30 $112,000
Merchandise purchases for September $200,000

The company maintains a minimum cash balance of at least $50,000
at the end of each month. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a
month; any repayments are made at the end of a month.
The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company
to borrow the exact amount needed at the beginning of each month.
The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we
will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter,
the company will pay the bank all of the accrued interest on the loan
and as much of the loan as possible while still retaining at least
$50,000 in cash.
Required:
Prepare a cash budget for the three-month period ending December
31. Include the following detailed budgets:
1.
a. A sales budget, by month and in total.
b. A schedule of expected cash collections from sales, by month and in
total.
c. A merchandise purchases budget in units and in dollars. Show the
budget by month and in total.
d. A schedule of expected cash disbursements for merchandise
purchases, by month and in total.
2. A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. Determine
any borrowing that would be needed to maintain the minimum cash
balance of $50,000.

ACCT 505 Week 6 Case Study Balanced Scorecard Case (700
words Paper)

ACCT505 – Managerial Accounting
Team Case Study 3 – Week 6
Balanced Scorecard Case
(Course Objective G)
Many companies are using the Balanced Scorecard System to assist
in their performance management. According to Garrison, Noreen,
and Brewer (2015) a balanced scorecard “consists of integrated set of
performance measures that are derived from and support a
company’s strategy” (p. 490). In a Balanced Scorecard System the
company’s strategy is translated into a system of performance
measures that are used to monitor the company’s performance in
meeting its strategic objectives.
As part of a two-member team, your task is to identify and discuss
the key performance measures of a balanced scorecard. Then, find
three companies that are currently using a Balanced Scorecard
System by doing an internet and library database search. Internet
searches as well searches of financial databases, such as Yahoo
Finance, should help you in your efforts. Then discuss in as much
detail as possible the specifics of the balanced scorecard that is being
used by these companies.
Deliverable
Your team should prepare a 700 words Paper, explaining the specifics
of the balanced scorecard system of the three companies you
selected in your research. This presentation should include your
analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each company’s
Balanced Scorecard System. Be sure to clearly document the
performance measures being used by each of the three companies.

Your PowerPoint presentation should be narrated using Voice Thread
or similar technology. All team members must participate in the
narration of the PowerPoint presentation.
APA standards are required to be followed for this presentation.

Question :
(TCO D) Fouch Company makes 30,000 units per year of a part it
uses in the products it manufactures. The unit product cost of this part
is computed as follows.
Direct Materials
$15.70
Direct Labor
$17.50
Variable Manufacturing Overhead
$4.50
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead
$14.60
Unit Product Cost
$52.30
An outside supplier has offered to sell the company all of these parts
it needs for $51.90 a unit. If the company accepts this offer, the
facilities now being used to make the part could be used to make more
units of a product that is in high demand. The additional contribution
margin on this other product would be $219,000 per year.
If the part were purchased from the outside supplier, all of the direct
labor cost of the part would be avoided. However, $6.20 of the fixed
manufacturing overhead cost being applied to the part would continue

even if the part were purchased from the outside supplier. This fixed
manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the company's
remaining products.
Required:
i. How much of the unit product cost of $52.30 is relevant in the
decision of whether to make or buy the part?
ii. What is the net total dollar advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing
the part rather than making it?
iii. What is the maximum amount the company should be willing to
pay an outside supplier per unit for the part if the supplier commits to
supplying all 30,000 units required each year?

Question 4. Question : (TCO D) Rosiek Corporation uses part
A55 in one of its products. The company's accounting department

reports the following costs of producing the 4,000 units of the part
that are needed every year.
Per Unit
Direct Materials $2.80
Direct Labor $6.30
Variable Overhead $8.50
Supervisor's Salary $2.60
Depreciation of Special Equipment $6.80
Allocated General Overhead $6.10
An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the
company for $32.30 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's
salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be
avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased
many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated
general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the
outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $4,000 of these allocated
general overhead costs would be avoided. In addition,the space used
to produce part A55 could be used to make more of one of the
company's other products, generating an additionalsegment margin
of $26,000 per year for that product.
Required:
i. Prepare a report that shows the effect on the company's total net
operating income of buying part A55 from the supplier rather than
continuing to make it inside the company.
ii. Which alternative should the company choose?
Question 5. Question : (TCO D) A customer has asked
Clougherty Corporation to supply 4,000 units of product M97, with
some modifications, for $40.10 each. The normal selling price of this

product is $48.00 each. The normal unit product cost of product M97
is computed as follows.
Direct Materials $18.50
Direct Labor $1.20
Variable manufacturing overhead $8.40
Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.90
Unit product cost $32.00
Direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect
on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The
customer would like some modifications made to product M97 that
would increase the variable costs by $5.70 per unit and that would
require a one-time investment of $31,000 in special molds that would
have no salvage value. This special order would have no effect on the
company's other sales. The company has ample spare capacity for
producing the special order.
Required:
Determine the effect on the company's total net operating income of
accepting the special order. Show your work!

possibility currently being examined is to make the cans instead of
purchasing them. The equipment needed would cost $1,000,000, with
a disposal value of $200,000,and would be able to produce
27,500,000 cans over the life of the machinery. The production
department estimates that approximately 5,500,000 cans would be
needed for each of the next 5 years.
The company would hire six new employees. These six individuals
would be full-time employees working 2,000 hours per year and
earning $15.00 per hour. They would also receive the same benefits as
other production employees, 15% of wages in addition to $2,000 of
health benefits.
It is estimated that the raw materials will cost 30¢ per can and that
other variable costs would be 10¢ per can. Because there is currently
unused space in the factory, no additional fixed costs would be
incurred if this proposal is accepted.
It is expected that cans would cost 50¢ each if purchased from the
current supplier. The company’s minimum rate of return (hurdle rate)
has been determined to be 11% for all new projects, and the current
tax rate of 35% is anticipated to remain unchanged. The pricing for
the company’s products as well as number of units sold will not be
affected by this decision. The unit-of-production depreciation method
would be used if the new equipment is purchased.
Required:
1. Based on the above information and using Excel, calculate the
following items for this proposed equipment purchase.
o Annual cash flows over the expected life of the equipment
o Payback period
o Simple rate of return
o Net present value

o Internal rate of return
The check figure for the total annual after-tax cash flows is $271,150.
2. Would you recommend the acceptance of this proposal? Why or
why not? Prepare a short, double-spaced paper in MS Word
elaborating on and supporting your answers.
