Answer:

False

Explanation:

According to GAAP, if the costs associated with providing accounting information surpass the benefits of obtaining such data, then it should not be reported.

For instance, there might be minimal discrepancies in particular accounts that prevent a balance sheet from being accurate. If the accounting mistake is negligible, such as a few hundred dollars, it isn't practical to have an entire audit team re-examine all financial statements to find the source of the error. An adjusting entry could be utilized to balance the accounts.

Consider a scenario where you, as an auditor, need to verify the physical inventory at a factory, but some supply boxes have been misplaced. Counting all supplies and materials again could take an entire day; however, is it truly worth that time? If the items are highly valuable, then yes, otherwise, if they consist of low-cost components, likely not.

Answer:

Total expenditure= $3,870

Explanation:

Based on the provided data:

predetermined overhead rate= $5.50

For Job A477:

Total direct labor hours: 100

Direct materials cost: $520

Direct labor expenses: $2,800

Now we calculate the overhead allocation:

Allocated manufacturing overhead= Estimated overhead rate * Actual base amount

Allocated manufacturing overhead= 5.50*100= $550

Then, we can compute the total job cost:

Total expense= 520 + 2,800 + 550= $3,870

Answer:

Details on Costs and Revenue associated with the new CD

e. None of the alternatives given

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable expenses:

Direct materials and labor:    $2.50/CD

Royalties for songwriters:          $0.70/CD

Royalties for recording artists: $2.00/CD

Overall variable cost                     $5.20/CD

Price for CD Distributor: $10.00/CD

Contribution margin                       $4.80/CD

Fixed Costs:

Costs for advertising & promotion:           $380,000

Overhead for Sony Records Inc.: $300,000

Total fixed expenses                         $680,000

To find the break-even point = Total fixed costs/Contribution per unit

= $680,000/$4.8 = 142,000 CDs

Given that they have sold 100,000 CDs

The increase is 42,000 (142,000 - 100,000)

This growth represents a 42% change = (42,000/100,000 * 100)

The shift in sales from 100,000 to 142,000 CDs required to reach break-even is a 42% increase.  None of the available choices from a to d provide the correct answer.

820,000 + 15,000x = 920,000 + 13,900x. This results in

1,100x = 100,000, thus x = 91 units. For the break-even analysis: 1) Break-even point = fixed costs / contribution margin for Bonham: 820,000 / (28,000 - 15,000) = 63 units. Similarly, for McKinney, the break-even is 920,000 / (28,000 - 13,900) = 65 units.
