SP 15 While reviewing the March 31, 2014, balance sheet of Success Systems, Adria Lopez notes that the business has built a large cash balance of $77,845. Its most recent bank money market statement shows that the funds are earning an annualized return of 0.75%. Adria Lopez decides to make several investments with the desire to earn a higher return on the idle cash balance. Accordingly, in April 2014, Success Systems makes the following investments in trading securities: Option 1 Problem 2 On June 30, 2014, the per share market price (fair value) of the Johnson & Johnson shares is $55 and the Starbucks shares is $19. Required 1. Prepare journal entries to record the April purchases of trading securities by Success Systems. 2.

D Job 6.02 was started in production in May, and these costs were assigned to it in May: direct materials, $600; direct labor, $180; and overhead, $90. Jobs 6.03 and 6.04 were started in June. Overhead cost is Option 1 applied with a predetermined rate based on direct labor costs. Jobs 6.02 and 6.03 are finished in June, Problem 4 and Job 6.04 is expected to be finished in July. No raw materials are used indirectly in June. (Assume this company’s predetermined overhead rate did not change over these months). Required 1. What is the cost of the raw materials used in June for each of the three jobs and in total? 2. How much total direct labor cost is incurred in June? 3. What predetermined overhead rate is used in June? 4. How much cost is transferred to finished goods inventory in June? Check (1) Total materials, $6,900 (3) 50% SP C After reading an article about activity-based costing in a trade journal for the furniture industry, Option 1 Adria Lopez wondered if it was time to critically analyze overhead costs at Success Systems.

SP 22 Adria Lopez expects second quarter 2014 sales of her new line of computer furniture to be the same as the first quarter’s sales (reported below) without any changes in strategy. Monthly sales averaged 40 desk units (sales price of $1,250) and 20 chairs (sales price of $500). Option 1 Problem 6 D Page 943 Adria Lopez believes that sales will increase each month for the next three months (April, 48 desks, 32 chairs; May, 52 desks, 35 chairs; June, 56 desks, 38 chairs) if selling prices are reduced to $1,150 for desks and $450 for chairs, and advertising expenses are increased by 10% and remain at that level for all three months. The products’ variable cost will remain at $750 for desks and $250 for chairs. The sales staff will continue to earn a 10% commission, the fixed manufacturing costs per month will remain at $10,000 and other fixed expenses will remain at $6,000 per month. Required 1.
