Explanation of Solution

Statement of cash flows: Statement of cash flow is a financial statement that shows the cash and cash equivalents of a company for a particular period of time. It shows the net changes in cash, by reporting the sources and uses of cash as a result of operating, investing, and financing activities of a company.

The impact on cash flow occurs when Company A pays for various product costs. The cash outflows incurred by Company A are for materials, labor, and overhead. Thus, the cash flow consequences of these transactions were recognized before the cost of goods sold expense is recognized.

Explanation of Solution

Product Costs: Product costs refer to the costs incurred to manufacture a product involving the direct materials, direct labor and overheads. These costs are directly traced in the final product except overheads and is accounted for either as cost of goods sold (for the goods sold in the accounting period) or, as an asset in the form of inventory (for the goods not sold in the accounting period).

Upstream costs: The costs incurred before the manufacturing process begins are known as upstream costs. Research and development expenses are examples of upstream costs.

Downstream costs: The costs incurred after the manufacturing processes are complete, are known as downstream costs. Transportation, packaging expenses are examples of downstream costs.

The distinction among the product costs and upstream (downstream) costs are given below:

  • Survey Of Accounting, Chapter 10, Problem 24P , additional homework tip  2 The cost of research and development (Event 1) is incurred before the beginning of the manufacturing process is classified as upstream costs.
  • Survey Of Accounting, Chapter 10, Problem 24P , additional homework tip  3 The costs of materials, labor and overhead incurred in Events 3, 5, 9, and 10 are classified as product costs.
  • Survey Of Accounting, Chapter 10, Problem 24P , additional homework tip  4 The costs such as inventory holding costs (Event 11), administrative costs and selling costs (Events 4 and 7) are classified as downstream costs.

Explanation of Solution

  • Survey Of Accounting, Chapter 10, Problem 24P , additional homework tip  5 As the merchandise would be available on demand, Company A might operate a just-in-time inventory system, by eliminating the inventory holding expense ($10 ×1,000 units). Since the additional cost for purchase is $10 per unit ($230  $220), it would cost Company A an additional $10,000 to purchase its product.
  • Survey Of Accounting, Chapter 10, Problem 24P , additional homework tip  6 Though, the company would save $70,000 of inventory holding expense. The warehouse supervisor might be biased by the fact that his job would be lost, if the company had purchased its products and the company could eliminate the need for warehousing inventory. The company might not need a warehouse supervisor if Company A does not maintain the inventory.
