let us say a company sells a product for $100 and sells 4000 units. Utility expense equals $10,000, selling expense equals $5,000 and Administrative expenses equal $5,000. Cost of goods sold is $40,000 and no new materials are purchased, but the beginning inventory in production is worth $40,000, direct labor and factory overhead both equal $20,000. Determine if this company has a net income or a net loss and by how much.
Answer: Net income: $340,000
Reason: Sales equal 100*4000= $400,000
400,000 - total expenses - cost of goods sold = 400,000 - 10,000 - 5,000 - 5,000 - 40,000 = $340,000
The cost of goods sold is already given, so there is no need to try to find it, so the other given information is to sort of confuse the people in question by making them think the inventory on hand has importance.
During December, Stomper Company accumulated 700 hours of direct labor costs on job 101 and 600 hours job 102. The total direct labor was incurred at a rate of $15 per direct labor hour for job 101 and $13 per direct labor hour for Job 102. Journalize the entry to record the flow of labor costs in production during December.
Job 101 $10,500
Job 102 7,800
Total 18,300
Work in process D 18,300
Wages payable C 18,300

Determine the Multiple department FO Rates
How do you find the FO rates for departments in a business?
Answer: First you need to find the “Production department factory overhead rate = Budgeted department factory overhead / budgeted department allocation base” and then use this rate by multiplying it with the direct labor hours required for each department. budgeted department allocation base can be found by just adding all departments’ required hours, respectively.
If sales equal $1,000,000 and variable costs equal $420,000 and total costs equal 690,000, what are the FIXED costs and the UNIT CONTRIBUTION MARGIN RATIO?
580000/100000 = %58 or .58 = unit contribution margin ratio
fixed = 270,000

Determine the direct labor standard hours when the time variance equals 1000 hours unfavorable. Actual direct labor hours equal 400 and the standard rate equals $10/h.
Answer: Standard hours = 300
Reason: 1000 unfavorable = x * 10. Divide 1000 by 10 and you should get 100, so x =100. With this, 100 should equal 400 minus standard hours, and you should be able to find that standard hours equal 300.
Determine total manufacturing cost INCURRED: a single job has 10 direct labor hours at a rate of $15 an hour, requisitioned 100 direct materials for $10 per unit, and the predetermined factory overhead rate is $7.77 with 20 hours
Answer: Total manufacturing costs incurred = 150+1000+155.4 = 1305.4
An explanation: there is a difference between manufacturing costs INCURRED, total manufacturing costs, cost of goods manufactured, cost of goods available to sell, and cost of goods sold. One thing that determines most of these things is the beginning inventories and ending inventories, respectively for work in process and finished goods at the beginning and the end of the month. Costs incurred only include direct labor, factory overhead, and direct materials, so all that is left is to calculate and add.

Use the DuPont formula: solve for x
ROI = 4
sales $400,000,
Invested assets = x
operating income of $800,000
Answer = x = $200,000
Explanation: with the DuPont formula, profit margin equals operating income/sales while investment turnover equals sales/invested assets. We already can find the profit margin, which is 2. So the equation should look like 2=2 times investment turnover, and with some algebraic manipulation, we can see that investment turnover is also equal to 2. So the investment turnover should look like 2= 400,000/x, which is $200,000
