Inventory Margins

Sales - Cost = Margin
100 - 80 = 20

Margin on Sales: 20/100 = 20%
Margin on Cost: 20/80 = 25%

Dollar Value Conversion Index

Ending inventory in current year dollars divided by Ending inventory in base year dollars

Dollar Value Inventory Steps

) Multiply ending inventory by (1 divided by index)
) Find the difference between that number at beginning inventory
) Multiply the difference by the price index
) Add that to beginning inventory

Firm Commitments

If contract price exceeds market price then you have a loss in the decline of price.

Dr. Loss on purchase commitment
Cr. Liability on purchase commitment

Lower of cost or net realizable value question that give profit margin at at %

Multiply the % by the original selling price, not selling price minus estimated cost to sell

Donated fixed assets

Recorded at FV along with incidental costs incurred Dr. Fixed Asset(FV) Cr. Gain on nonreciprocal transfer

Accounting for improvements and replacements

- If CV of old asset is known, remove it and record any gain or loss. - If he FV of old asset is unknown debit accumulated depreciation and credit cash or A/P at cost - Usefulness of assets increases then capitalize it to asset account

Average Accumulated Expenditures - Weighted Average

- A firm begins construction on January 1 by making a $40,000 construction payment to a contractor. On July 1, another $40,000 payment is made. - AAE = $40,000 + $40,000(6/12) = $60,000.

Average Accumulated Expenditures - Simple Average

- Assume small discrete payments made throughout the year for $180,000 were paid - AAE = Average of beginning & ending costs (0 + 180,000)/2 = 90,000

Interest to be capitalized with weighted average

1. ) Find Average Accumulated Expenditures(AAE) 2. )Add up all the debt outstanding 3. )Multiply each debt instrument by interest rate and add up 4. )Divide sum of interest by sum of debt outstanding & then multiply by AAE

Interest to be capitalized with specific method

1. ) Find Average Accumulated Expenditures(AAE) 2. )Add up all the debt outstanding not related to construction 3. )Multiply each debt instrument not related to construction by interest rate and add up 4. )Divide sum of interest by sum of debt outstanding 5. )Multiply construction portion by interest rate 6. )Subtract construction portion from AAE then multiply that number by nonconstruction rate 7. )Add construction and nonconstruction totals

Units of Productions

Cost minus salvage value divided by estimated units or hours equals rate per unit or hour

Commercial substance meaning

The assets exchanged are different and this is the easy one to calculate

No Commercial Substance meaning

The assets are the same and this is the more complicated one

Fixed asset condemnation rules

Gain or loss is the difference between proceeds from the sale and the carrying amount of fixed assets sold or converted

Nonmonetary exchange rules

- If there is gain, but cash is paid then no gain is recognized and new asset is sum of the asset given up plus cash paid - If cash is received and there is a loss the record the loss

25% rule

- 1st determine potential gain by comparing BV of asset being given up to its FV(either given or FV of asset received plus cash) - Divide cash received by consideration received(cash plus FV of asset received) and see if its greater of less than 25% - Either recognize whole gain or portion less than 25%

Computer Software costs

Annual deprecation is the greater of straight line or % of revenue Total capitalized amount times (Current gross revenue divided by total gross revenue)

Asset Impairment

If CV of asset is greater than undiscounted future cash flows then you have an impairment; and the impairment is the difference between the CV and the FV

What type of asset should recoverability test be performed on

Asset with a DEFINITE useful life not an indefinite useful life
