Prepare income statement using traditional method for the year ended
Laura subscribes to the relevant trade journals in dairy farming, and has excerpted the following information from a recent issue of one of her journals. It shows the buying criteria of a sample of supermarket customers who were purchasing milk in plastic and paper containers (1 = most important, and 5 = least important). The current supermarket prices for these products in Maple Hill's area are $1.25 per quart for each product except eggnog which sells for $1.80. Supermarkets mark up the price of milk by about 40% from dairy cost, so the price received by the dairy is somewhat less
Maple Hill has a conventional accounting system which keeps track of overhead costs in four categories: bottling equipment, facilities, processing, and general and administrative. There are sub-accounts in each of these accounts except for bottling equipment. The accounts, sub-accounts and costs for the most recent operating year are shown in Table 1. These costs are often called resource costs, and are labeled as such inthe OROS software system. Maple Hill grows on site most of the feed needed at the dairy farm. The cost of producing the feed and some additional feed purchased during the year is included under labor and materials for other processing cost
In addition to the overhead costs, Maple Hill has direct costs for bottles and other materials. These materials are purchased from a variety of suppliers. Each glass bottle costs Maple Hill $.75, including both purchase and recycling cost. Other ingredients include cocoa, sugar, and spices. Cocoa, used in the production of chocolate milk, costs $.05 per bottle. Sugar, used in both chocolate milk and eggnog, costs $.05 per bottle. Spices, used to make eggnog, cost $.08 per bottle. In total, 65,700 ounces of sugar and cocoa were used in the production of chocolate milk, and 76,650 ounces of sugar and spice were used in the production of eggnog
