Activity No. 2: Problem 1
Problem 1:
Required:
1) Prepare a cost sheet/cost statement for Piedmont Corporation
2) Revenues for 2011 were $600 million. Prepare the income statement for 2011.
Problem 2:
Foxwood Company is a metal- and woodcutting manufacturer, selling products to the home construction market.
Consider the following data for 2011:
Required:
1. Prepare an income statement with a separate supporting schedule of cost of goods Required manufactured. For
all manufacturing items, classify costs as direct costs or indirect costs and indicate by V or F whether each is
basically a variable cost or a fixed cost (when the cost object is a product unit). If in doubt, decide on the basis of
whether the total cost will change substantially over a wide range of units produced.
2. Suppose that both the direct material costs and the plant-leasing costs are for the production of 900,000 units.
What is the direct material cost of each unit produced? What is the plant-leasing cost per unit? Assume that the
plant-leasing cost is a fixed cost.
3. Suppose Foxwood Company manufactures 1,000,000 units next year. Repeat the computation in requirement 2
for direct materials and plant-leasing costs. Assume the implied cost-behavior patterns persist.
