(1) Explain how the Units-of-Production method is computed (10 points) and (2) provide an example of how this method could be used on a new delivery truck purchased for $25,000 to be used for 100,000 miles with a salvage value of $5,000 for year one only (25,000 miles driven in year one) (1) The units of production method is computed by determining the approximate units that will be produced during a given year. When production is high and more units are produced, the depreciation will be higher that year. If the units produced from the machine are low for any given year, the amount of depreciation will be a lot less than in productive years. (2) provide an example of how this method could be used on a new delivery truck purchased for $25,000 to be used for 100,000 miles with a salvage value of $5,000 for year one only (25,000 miles driven in year one) (TCO 2) As required to complete Course Project 1, one must follow the cycle that includes 10 steps to complete the accounting cycle. (1) Explain how information from the journal entries get into the ledger accounts (15 points) and (2) provide an example of information that would be transferred. (10 points) In accounting, ledger refers to a book consisting of all accounts used by the company. While the journal is referred to as (books of original entry) the ledger is known as a book of final entry. The next step of accounting cycle is posting journal entries to ledger accounts. The journal records that were recorded during the previous step of the cycle provide all the information about which accounts are to be debited and which ones to be credited. So we post the information from the journal entries into the ledger account. An example would be debit rent expense and credit bank account. Debit Rent Expense 3000 Credit Checking 3000 To record rent expense for the month of Jan. (TCO 5) Internal Control Procedures are required to safeguard company assets and to ensure ethical operation of the business. (1) Explain how separation of duties can satisfy the purpose of internal control (10 points) and (2) provide an example of how this control could be implemented. (10 points) (Points : 20) 1) To complement segregation of duties, company policy should limit access to assets only to those persons or departments that have custodial responsibilities. Only authorized persons should have access to certain records. Each person in the information chain is important. The chain should start with hiring. Background checks should be conducted on job applicants. Proper training and supervision, as well as paying competitive salaries, helps ensure that all employees are sufficiently competent for their jobs. Employee responsibilities should be clearly laid out in position descriptions. 2) Warehouse personnel should be in charge of storing and keeping track of inventory. 3) In the case of EPIC Products, separation of the duties of cash handling from record keeping for customer accounts receivable would have removed Erica Price’s incentive to engage in fraud, because it would have made it impossible for her to have lapped accounts receivable if another employee had been keeping the books. (TCO 1) To evaluate the financial operation and health of a business ratio analysis is used. (1) Provide the formula for the Debt Ratio and explain how it is computed (10 points) and (2) provide an example of how this ratio can be used in decision-making in business. (10 points) (Points : 20) 1) The formula for the debt ratio is total liabilities divided by total assets. The debt ratio is a financial leverage ratio used along with other financial leverage ratios to measure a company's ability to handle its obligations. 2) An example of the debt ratio formula would be a company who has total assets of $3 million and total liabilities of $2.5 million. The total liabilities of $2.5 million would be divided by the total assets of $3 million which gives a debt ratio of .8333. [Show More]
