Accounting Math Help

Accounting Math help !?

The solution is simple. Just use this formula:

Predetermined overhead rate = [Budgeted Yearly Total Factory Overhead Costs] / [Budgeted Yearly Activity (direct labor-hours, etc.) ]

Budgeted activity units used in the denominator of the formula, more often called the denominator level, are measured in direct labor-hours, machine-hours, direct labor costs, or production units.

a.)
Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Yearly Total Factory Overhead Costs / Est. total amt of allocation base
(allocation base would be direct labor cost)
= $800,000 / $500,000 = 1.6 or 160%

b.)
Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Yearly Total Factory Overhead Costs / Est. total amt of allocation base
(allocation base would be direct labor hours)
= $800,000 / 50,000 = $16 per DLH

c.)
Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Yearly Total Factory Overhead Costs / Est. total amt of allocation base
(allocation base would be machine hours)
= $800,000 / 100,000 = 8

Let me know if something needs clarification. ;-)

Accounting math help fast 10 pts!?

(1) quick ratio is (current assets - inventories) / current liabilities
Kolbie Co: (19,956 - 346)/8,299 = 2.36
Newton Co: (17,939 - 660)/16,791 = 1.03

(2) The higher the quick ratio, the better the position of the company.
So Kolbie Co is doing better.

Some math/accounting help please :)?

Well this is kinda of accounting homework, but I believe you use math to figure it out...

Listed here are the total costs associated with the 2011 production of 1,000 drum sets manufactured by NeatBeat. The drum sets sell for $466 each. (Assume there is no ending inventory in the year 2011.)

1. Plastic for casing—$22,000
2. Wages of assembly workers—$85,000.
3. Property taxes on factory—$5,000
4. Accounting staff salaries—$33,000
5. Drum stands (1,000 stands outsourced)—$40,000
6. Rent cost of equipment for sales staff—$12,000
7. Upper management salaries—$140,000
8. Annual flat fee for maintenance service—$22,000
9. Sales commissions—$21 per unit (so $21,000 for 1,000 units)
10. Machinery depreciation—$44,000

QUESTION: Compute the manufacturing cost per drum set

Ok you dont have to find the answer for me if you dont want to, but can you tell me how so I know what to ...what not...thanks I need the RIGHT answer ...whoever helps me get to the right answer will get 10 points! Thank you :)

Accounting Math...HELP ME?

You can't find the true values without more information, but you can find how much owner's equity has increased.

assets = liablitiies + owners equity

so just plug in the numbers

146,000 = 78,000 + OE

OE = 146,000-78,000

OE = 68,000

Finance and accounting math please help?

1. An accountant loans $28,000 at simple
interest to her business. The loan is at 11.5% and earns
$3255 interest. Find the time of the loan in months.

Recall the formula
I = P * r * t, where

I = interest
P = initial amount of principal
r = annual simple interest rate (decimal)
t = number of years

Plugging in the given information:

3255 = 28,000 * .115 * t
t = 3255 / (28,000 * .115)
t = 1.01087 years
t = 1.01087 * 12 months
t = 12.13 months

2. A small resort must add a swimming
pool to compete with a new resort built nearby. The pool
will cost $28,000. The resort borrows the money and
agrees to repay it with equal payments at the end of each
quarter for 6 1/2years at an interest rate of 12% compounded
quarterly. Find the amount of each payment.


I'll assume that the first payment is one payment period from the opening date of the loan, as is the usual assumption.

Recall the formula

L = x * [1 - (1+i)^-n] / i, where

L = amount of loan
x = amount of each level periodic payment
i = effective interest rate per payment period (decimal)
n = number of payments

Since the payments are quarterly, we need to find the effective quarterly interest rate. But since the given interest rate is compounded quarterly, this is easy: i = .12 / 4 = .03.

In 6 1/2 years, there are 6.5 * 4 = 26 quarters. Therefore, n = 26.

Therefore,

28,000 = x * (1 - 1.03^-26) / .03
x = 28,000 * .03 / (1 - 1.03^-26)
x = 1566.27

Do you need to be good in math to learn accounting?

Perhaps the better question is, “How well do you know Excel?”If you can handle addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, then you’ll be fine. And if you know Excel, you’ll always be fine with the calculations needed in accounting.Can you do mental math? That’s great at happy hour, but doing math in your head—you only need to keep it simple.Wray Rives mentioned algebra. That helps if you are exposed to a lot of problem solving. But doing AR, AP, Payroll, and reporting requires little if any algebra.Will your work expose you to banking and finance? Understanding the time value of money is important, but again, Excel will be your savior (do they still make the HP 12C or 17B?).If you do financial analysis as an accountant, understanding basic statistics like averages, median, mode, standard deviation, etc. will be helpful. Again, Excel will help with those calculations.Start with knowing what part of accounting you prefer and know the math requirements. If you’re going to be a general ledger accountant, then basic math is all you need. Is that a weakness? Then work on your math skills. The same questions apply should be interested in finance, financial analysis, or a auditing. Find out the math requirements and bone up on skills as needed.
