Question 1

Use the following information for questions. In 2014, Violin Inc.began a three year construction contract for $7,000,000.Violin uses the percentage-of-completion method.The income to be recognized each year is based on the proportion of costs incurred to total estimated costs for completing the contract.The financial statement presentation relating to this contract for calendar 2014 follow: 
-What was the initial estimated gross profit on this contract?
A)$762,860
B)$810,462
C)$1,300,408
D)$1,729,412

Accepted Answer

The initial estimated gross profit can be calculated as follows:
Total contract price = $7,000,000
Estimated cost = $5,000,000 (given that income is based on the proportion of costs incurred to total estimated costs for completing the contract)
Estimated gross profit = Total contract price - Estimated cost = $7,000,000 - $5,000,000 = $2,000,000
Therefore, the initial estimated gross profit on this contract was $2,000,000 or 28.58% of the total contract price. Option C is the only choice that matches this calculation.

Question 2

Use the following information for questions. On April 1, Harmonica Corp.consigned 50 handcrafted benches to Organ Co.Harmonica's cost was $350 per bench.Total freight costs were $700, which were paid by Organ.On August 1, Harmonica received a cheque for $14,100 from Organ which included the following information:  Revenue Recognition 6 - 21 
-Under the earnings approach, total sales were
A)$15,540.
B)$18,550.
C)$19,060.
D)$19,425.

Accepted Answer

Heavy Metal received $14,100 from Disco, which includes deductions for freight, commission, advertising, and delivery expenses. To find the total sales, we need to add back these expenses to the amount received. The commission is 20% of the sales price, which means the amount received ($14,100) is 80% of the sales after deducting the commission but before subtracting other expenses. First, calculate the total expenses excluding the commission: $700 (freight) + $450 (advertising) + $290 (delivery) = $1,440. Add this to the amount received to get the total after commission but before other deductions: $14,100 + $1,440 = $15,540. Since $15,540 represents 80% of the sales (after commission), we calculate the total sales by dividing by 0.8: $15,540 / 0.8 = $19,425.
