Exam # 2 Study Guide Lectures: 10 - 18 ACCT 2102 1st Edition Exam # 2 Study Guide Lectures: 10 - 18 Here is the outline of the test: Chapter 4 2 conceptual and 4 calculation Chapter 5 2 conceptual and 5 calculation Chapter 6 4 conceptual and 3 calculation 1 extra credit question as a bonus Below are conceptual and mathematical ideas, which may or may not be on the test. Farmer says nothing outside of the notes we did in class will be on the test; therefore, a book is not required unless needed for own personal reference. Again, nothing in Chapters 4, 5, or 6 that were not in the notes will be on the test. She gave hints in class about what some of the conceptual questions would be, so if there is an asterisk* beside a concept then it will 100% be on the test. Chapter 4: Lecture 10 (September 9), Lecture 11 (September 11), Lecture 12 (September 13), and Lecture 13 (September 16) Two ways of depicting a more accurate allocation of MOH which will be discussed throughout this chapter are: • Departmental Overhead Rates • Activity Based Costing Traditional Costing System . Plant-wide Overhead Rate Calculate the company’s plant-wide overhead rate, assuming the company uses DL hours as its allocation base. Refined Costing System . Departmental Overhead Rates Calculate departmental overhead rates, assuming the company would use machine hours as the allocation base for the Machining department and DL hours as the allocation base for the Assembly department. DM and DL remain the same in both the Traditional and Refined Costing Methods. Cost distortion: Over- or under-costing your job when running two systems (traditional and refined) simultaneously; caused by difference in resource consumption What is the goal of ANY refined costing system? Increase accuracy to get a true picture of what our costs are Can refined costing systems only be used to allocate MOH at manufacturers? No What are the key steps in implementing ABC? 1. Identify the activities and estimate the total MOH costs associated with each activity. These are called “activity cost pools.” • Unit Level- activity we perform on all of our units • Batch Level- activity we perform on a group of units • Product Level- activity we perform on an individual product line • Facility Level- activity we perform on everything else 2. Choose an allocation base for each activity • Consider true cost driver when making this selection 3. Calculate a POHR for each activity 4. Allocate the indirect costs. Circumstances favoring the implementation of ABC Offers multiple products Consume at different rates than under the traditional system ABC will often uncover that a high volume product has been overcosted. *Great mathematical problem to review because a similar problem WILL be on the test. Also keep in mind that “per unit cost” and “total cost” will be different! Before the Amplifier is a manufacturer of guitars. The company sells acoustic and electric guitars. The electric guitar line is not as profitable as expected despite high production levels. Management is concerned that the price of the electric guitar line is too high in comparison to its competitors and is considering switching to ABC to improve costing accuracy. Currently, manufacturing overhead is applied to production based on DL hours and Before the Amplifier sets its sales prices by marking up unit production costs. The following information has been prepared: (GIVEN) Activity Cost Driver Cost Pool Assembly DL Hours $500 Machining Machine Hours $1,500 Setting Up Equipment Number of Setups $1,200 Moving Goods Number of Moves $800 (WORKED) Activity Cost Driver Cost Pool Acoustic Electric Total Assembly DL Hours $500 20 DL hours 80 DL Hours 100 DL hours Machining Machine $1,500 10 M Hours 40 M Hours 50 M Hours Hours Setting Up Number of $1,200 4 Setups 4 Setups 8 Setups Equipment Setups Moving Number of $800 1 Move 4 Moves 5 Moves Goods Moves Total $4,000 Each Acoustic guitar requires 1 direct labor hour and .5 machine hours to produce. Each Electric guitar requires .8 direct labor hours and .4 machine hours to produce. The production equipment is setup for every 5 Acoustic guitars produced and for every 25 Electric guitars produced. Acoustic guitars are moved during production in groups of 20 guitars; Electric guitars are moved during production in groups of 25 guitars. The direct material cost per Acoustic guitar is $60 and the direct material cost per Electric guitar is $70. Direct Laborers are paid at a rate of $25 per hour. The projected production levels for the period are 20 Acoustic guitars and 100 Electric guitars..

  • Guitar Body Shapes May 14, 2020
    Guitar Virtual Learning Guitar Body Shapes May 14, 2020 Guitar Lesson: May 14, 2020 Objective/Learning Target: What different guitar shapes are there, and what are the differences between those shapes? Warm-Up Activity Watch the following video by YouTuber “Minor7thb5” (which is a music theory reference!). In it, he plays the same piece of music two times with two different guitars. The guitars are of similar build quality and materials, but they are different shapes. One is a parlor guitar and the other is a dreadnaught. How do they sound different to you? These differences are subtle. It might be easier to hear by using headphones. 2nd Warm-Up Activity These were the two guitars he played. The one on the left is an Eastman parlor guitar, the one on the right is a Martin dreadnought. How do they look different? How do they look the same? Guitar Shapes For the lesson today, we are going to do a brief overview of the different guitar shapes and styles you can find today. This lesson will build on the lessons from earlier in the week where we discussed the differences between classical, steel-string, and electric guitars. Now, we will see what different body shapes there are, especially for the steel-string and electric guitars, and what makes them different! A Brief history of guitar shapes The word “guitar” comes from the Greek word “kithara,” which shows up in Greek mythology from thousands of years ago. These stringed instruments didn’t look much like our guitars now, but they were strummed like our guitars.

Voices of the Electric Guitar Don Curnow MPA 475 12-12-12 Intro The solid body electric guitar is the result of many guitars and innovations that came before it, followed by the guitar's need for volume to compete with louder instruments, particularly when soloing. In the 1930s, jazz and its various forms incorporated the guitar, but at the time there was no way for an acoustic guitar to compete with the volume of a trumpet or saxophone, let alone with an orchestra of trumpets and saxophones, such as in big band jazz. As a result, amplification of the guitar was born and the electric guitar has been evolving since, from a hollow bodied ES-150 arch-top with a pick-up used by Charlie Christian to the Les Paul played by Slash today.

  • The Three Voices of the Electric Guitar by Eric Smith
    Smith 1 Eric Smith Instructor’s Name ENGL 1013 Date The Three Voices of the Electric Guitar The electric guitar has been an integral part of popular music since its inception in the early part of the twentieth century. The immense palette of colors available to guitarists makes the electric guitar obviously stand out from the other musical instruments. However, a fairly obvious fact about the electric guitar is hiding in plain sight, a fact known to players but not immediately apparent to the general public until it is brought to their attention: the guitar is only half of a complete instrument. Without electronic amplification there would be no jarring, emotional delight to the ear that stirs the collective soul of today’s audience. Thus far in the evolution of sound reinforcement, there are three distinct types of amplifiers: the tube amp, the solid-state or transistor amp, and the modern digital processor. The vacuum tube, or valve, is a component of an antiquated technology. Along with large, heavy output transformers and point-to-point wiring, the tube amp is a remnant of the days when Americans would gather around their bulky mahogany Art Deco radios and listen to FDR’s fireside chats. Suspenders, rumble seats, fedoras, and whitewall tires were some of the other common cultural iconography in those halcyon days before the atomic bomb. The tube amp tone has a roundness to it, a warm, creamy sound that even with the volume turned up is never sharp or piercing. The guitar players that swear by tube amps are legion, and the men that designed and manufactured them have become household names; Leo Fender and Jim Marshall are two examples.

  • Electric Guitars and Basses
    About Electric Guitars and Basses Since the development of the Spanish six-string guitar in the early 1800s, guitar makers and players had searched for a way to make the guitar's sound louder. (See Acoustic Guitars for more info.) Big changes came at the beginning of the 20th century when a number of guitar players and designers experimented with electrical amplification. Major changes in guitar design began with the invention of the electromagnetic transducer commonly known as a "pickup." A pickup is a device placed underneath the strings of a guitar converting string vibrations into electrical energy. This energy is converted back into sound by an amplifier. The amplifier has knobs or switches that allow the player to increase or decrease the sound level of the guitar. (See section on Amplifiers for more info.) As early as the 1930s guitar players began installing pickups in their acoustic instruments. Although this helped make the sound louder, it created a whole new set of problems - especially "feedback" when the guitar was played at high volume. Several inventors developed a solution to this problem by experimenting with a solid body for the instrument by attaching a neck with strings to a solid block of wood. This solid wood body - not as resonant as a hollow body - created less feedback when amplified. By the 1950s solid body electric guitars were mass-produced to keep up with the increasing demand for these new instruments. First seen as just a novelty, electric guitars have become one of the most popular and influential instruments in modern music - used to play blues, jazz, rock & roll, country, and rhythm & blues styles.

  • The Standard Gibson Les Paul Electric Guitar the Guitar Is a Musical Instrument That Has Been Around for Many Centuries. Music C
    The Standard Gibson Les Paul Electric Guitar The guitar is a musical instrument that has been around for many centuries. Music composition and sound evolved quite drastically over time. Therefore, the guitar transformed and evolved as well. Since the beginning of the rock and roll era, guitarists, such as Slash, Randy Rhoads, and Jimmy Page favored the Standard Gibson Les Paul electric guitar for its smooth playability as well as crisp and piercing tones. Amazingly the Gibson Les Paul consists of simple mechanisms. These simple mechanisms are found on the three main components of the Gibson Les Paul guitar: the headstock, the neck, and the body. The Headstock The Neck The Body The Headstock The first component, the headstock, has its own subcomponent: the tuners. The headstock is one of the most significant parts of the guitar because it houses six tuners which tune the guitar strings as well as hold the strings in place. It is made out of mahogany wood and angled at fourteen degrees with respect to the neck. Tuners The Gibson Les Paul’s headstock houses six tuners with three on each side of the headstock that separately hold guitar strings E, A, D, G, B, and e in place. Depending on which side of the headstock the user turns the tuner knobs, the guitar produces lower or higher pitched tones when the string(s) are plucked. Lower pitch results from the tuner knob turned in the direction that decreases the string tension, whereas the higher pitch results from the tuner knob turned in the direction that increases string tension.

  • Physics of the Electric Guitar Connections in Electricity and Magnetism
    Physics of the Electric Guitar Connections in Electricity and Magnetism First discovered by Michael Faraday, electromagnetic induction is the process of using magnetic fields to produce voltage, and in a complete circuit, a current. He started, at first using different combinations of wires and magnetic, but it wasn't until he tried moving the wires that he created a current. It turns out that electromagnetic induction is created by just that – moving of a conducting material through a magnetic field (or the moving of a magnetic field past a conductor). Electric guitars make use of Faraday's discovery. Pick-up coils, consisting of a small magnet wound with wire, created an interaction with a magnetic string or wire, which in turn creates a current in the coil. This current can be transmitted to a speaker and converted to sound by a reciprocal process. While Faraday discovered the science, most historians give credit to Leo Fender, who in the 1940s created the electric guitar. In this lab you will learn how a pick-up coil works and use a home-made pick-up to play the "physics guitar." Activity 1 - What does electricity have to do with magnetism? One of the basic pieces of an electric guitar pick-up is a simple coil of copper wire. In this activity you will see the simple connection between electric current in the copper coil and creating a magnetic field. Materials § Copper coil assembly § Magnetic compass § C-cell battery Procedure _ 1. Hold the two bare wires of the coil to the + + and - terminals of the battery and observe what happens to the compass needle when the coil is placed close to the compass.
