Answer from: Jasten

Part A. $50,000 per year

Part B. $4,300 for the year 2014

Part C. $60,000 for the year 2015

Part D. $53,975 for the year 2015

Explanation:

A). Straight Line Depreciation

The straight line formula is as under:

Straight Line Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage Value) / Useful Life

By putting values we have:

Straight Line Depreciation = (215900 - $15,900) / 4 = $50,000 per year

B). Activity Method

The Activity Method formula is as under:

Activity Method = (Cost - Salvage Value) * Hours Used / Total Hours

By putting values we have:

Activity Method = ($215900 - $15,900) * 860 Hrs / 40,000 Hrs

Activity Method = $4,300 for the year 2014

C). Sum of Years Digit Method

The Sum Of The Years Method formula is as under:

Sum Of The Years Method

= (Cost - Salvage Value) * Remaining useful life / Sum of the Year's digits

Here,

Remaining useful life at the year end 2015 is 3 and sum of the year's digits is 10 (1+2+3+4).

By putting values we have:

Sum Of The Years Method = ($215900 - $15,900) * 3 / 10

Sum Of The Years Method = $60,000 for the year 2015

D). Double declining balance Method

The formula for the double declining method is as under:

Double Declining Method = (Carrying Value - Salvage Value) * 2 / Useful Life

By putting values we have:

Double Declining Method For Year 2014 = ($215900) * 2 / 4

= $107,950 for year 2014

Double Declining Method For Year 2015 = ($215900 - $107,950) * 2 / 4

= $53,975 for the year 2015

Kenney co. uses process costing to account for the production of canned energy drinks. direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. equivalent units have been calculated to be 19,200 units for materials and 16,000 units for conversion costs. beginning inventory consisted of $11,200 in materials and $6,400 in conversion costs. april costs were $57,600 for materials and $64,000 for conversion costs. ending inventory still in process was 6,400 units (100% complete for materials, 50% for conversion). the total cost per unit using the weighted average method would be closest to:
