Problem 2-16 Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured; Income
Statement
Swift Company was organized on March 1 of the current year. After five months
of start-up losses, management had expected to earn a profit during August.
Management was disappointed, however, when the income statement for
August also showed loss. August’s income statement follows:

Swift Company
Income Statement
For the Month Ended August 31

Sales $450,000
Less: Operating Expenses
Direct Labor Cost 70,000
Raw Materials Purchased 165,000
Manufacturing Overhead 85,000
Selling and administrative expenses 142,000 462,000
Net operating loss $(12,000)
After seeing the 12,000 loss for August, Swift’s president stated, “I was sure we’d be profitable
within six months, but our sixth months are up and this loss for August is even worse than July.

1. I think it’s time to start looking for someone to buy out the company’s assets - if we don’t, within
a few months there won't be any assets to sell. By the way, I don’t see any reason to look for a
new controller. We’ll just jump along with Sam for the time being.

The company’s controller resigned a month ago. Sam, a new assistant in the controller’s office,
prepared the income statement above. Sam has had little experience in manufacturing
operations.
Inventory balances at the beginning and end of August were:

August 1 August 31
Raw Materials $8,000 $13,000
Work in Process $16,000 $21,000
Finished Goods $40,000 $60,000
The president has asked you to check over the income statement and make a
recommendation as to whether the company should look for a buyer for its
assets.

Required:
1. As one step in gathering data for a recommendation to the president,
prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for August.
Required:
2. As a step, prepare a new income statement for August.
Required:
3. Based on your statements prepared in (1) and (2) above, would you
recommend that the company look for a buyer?

We recommend the company not to pursue the sale of its assets based on our review of
the data that has been supplied. This recommendation is based on the discrepancies
that were found between Sam's income statement and the one that was previously
drafted. The differences prove that the president's prediction that the business will turn a
profit by August is accurate. The net operating income shown in the updated and
accurate income statement supports this claim. The first mishandling of accounting
concepts during the manufacturing entity's income statement preparation almost led to
a poor choice. This scenario highlights how crucial it is to have a solid understanding of
the accounting procedures that are unique to various business types in order to prepare
financial statements. This particular type of knowledge is essential since mistakes in
financial reporting have the potential to mislead management, which could result in
poor decisions and affect the company's finances.

Solutions:
Visic Corporation
Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured

Direct Materials:
Raw materials inventory, beginning $20,000
Add: Purchases of raw materials 480,000
Raw materials available for use 500,000
Less: Raw materials inventory, ending (30,000)
Raw materials used in production $470,000

Direct labor 90,000


Manufacturing overhead 300,000
860,000
Total Manufacturing cost
50,000
Add: Work in process inventory, beginning 910,000
Less: Work in process inventory, ending (40,000)
Cost of goods manufactured $870,000
2.a) Solution:

Sales in dollars / Selling Price per unit = Sales in Unit $1,300,000 /


$50 = 26,000 Finished Goods, beginning + Production in units-
Sales in Unit = Ending finished goods inventory in units 0+ 29,000-
26,000 = 3,000 units

2.b) Solution:

Cost of Goods Manufactured / Production in Units = Unit Cost


$870,000/ 29,000 = $30 per Unit Finished Goods Inventory, end x
Unit Cost = Cost of Finished Goods Inventory 3,000 units x $30
= $90,000
