The following information pertains to the Cannady Corporation: Beginning work-in-process inventory $ 50,000 Ending work-in-process inventory 48,000 Beginning finished goods inventory 180,000 Ending finished goods inventory 195,000 Cost of goods manufactured 1,220,000 What is cost of goods sold? a. $1,235,000 b. $1,205,000 c. $1,218,000 d. $1,222,000 $180,000 + 1,220,000 - 195,000 = $1,205,000

b

Which of the following statements about the direct/indirect cost classification is NOT true? a. Direct costs are always traced. b. Direct costs are always allocated. c. The design of operations affects the direct/indirect classification. d. The direct/indirect classification depends on the choice of cost object.

b

8. Within the relevant range, if there is a change in the level of the cost driver, then a. total fixed costs and total variable costs will change b. total fixed costs and total variable costs will remain the same c. total fixed costs will remain the same and total variable costs will change d. total fixed costs will change and total variable costs will remain the same

c

Budgeted costs are: a. the costs incurred this year b. the costs incurred last year c. planned or forecasted costs d. competitor's costs

c

Beginning finished goods, 1/1/20X5 $ 40,000 Ending finished goods, 12/31/20X5 33,000 Cost of goods sold 250,000 Sales revenue 600,000 Operating expenses 120,000 What is cost of goods manufactured for 20X5? a. $257,000 b. $350,000 c. $243,000 d. $250,000 $33,000 + 250,000 - 40,000 = $243,000

c.

9. When 10,000 units are produced, fixed costs are $14 per unit. Therefore, when 20,000 units are produced fixed costs will: a. increase to $28 per unit b. remain at $14 per unit c. decrease to $7 per unit d. total $280,000 When 10,000 units are produced, variable costs are $6 per unit. Therefore, when 20,000 units are produced: a. variable costs will total $120,000 b. variable costs will total $60,000 c. variable unit costs will increase to $12 per unit d. variable unit costs will decrease to $3 per unit

c. Total fixed costs = $14 x 10,000 units = $140,000 $140,000/20,000 units = $7 a. Total variable costs = $6 x units sold = $6 x 20,000 = $120,000
