13-45 Variable and Absorption Costing Chan Manufacturing Company data

13-45 Variable and Absorption Costing
Chan Manufacturing Company data for 20X7 follow:
Sales: 12,000 units at $17 each
Actual production 15,000 units
Expected volume of production 18,000 units
Manufacturing costs incurred
Variable $120,000
Fixed 63,000
Nonmanufacturing costs incurred
Variable $ 24,000
Fixed 18,000

1. Determine operating income for 20X7, assuming the firm uses the variable-costing approach to product costing. (Do not prepare a statement.)


2. Assume that there is no January 1, 20X7, inventory; no variances are allocated to inventory; and the firm uses a “full absorption” approach to product costing. Compute (a) the cost assigned to December 31, 20X7, inventory; and (b) operating income for the year ended December 31, 20X7. (Do not prepare a statement.)

Write a complete program named Buttons that implements a window with three buttons – left, blue, and reset.

Write a complete program named Buttons that implements a window with three buttons – left, blue, and reset. When the left button is clicked, the window’s contents (the three buttons) shifts left. When the blue button is clicked, the window’s background color changes to blue. When the reset button is clicked, the window’s contents shifts back to the original center alignment and the window’s background color changes back to its original color.

In implementing the reset functionality, don’t try to figure out a color constant that’s used for the window’s original color value. That’s counterproductive because the color might be different on different computers. Instead, retrieve and save the window’s original color and then when the color needs to be reset, use that saved original color value.

Original display:

Buttons Window

Left Blue Reset

After Left button is clicked:

Buttons Window

Left Blue Reset

After Blue button is clicked:

Buttons Window

Left Blue Reset

After Reset button is clicked:

Buttons Window

Prog7.java

Write a program that tests the user’s ability to memorize a sequence of colors. As shown in the sample session, the program starts off by displaying a dialog box with a list of colors that are to be memorized – red, white, yellow, green, and blue. The user then enters the colors one at a time in a text box. If the user makes a mistake, the program prints a “Sorry” message. If the user correctly enters all the colors, the program prints a “Congratulations” message. Note that when the sorry or congratulations message is printed, the window’s original components get cleared away.

As always, you are required to write elegant code. In particular, you should avoid hard coding the color values in the interior of your program. You should declare those values one time in an array at the top of the program.

Note:

· Your program should contain a class named Prog7.

· Use a simple FlowLayout layout manager scheme.

· Use an inner class for the listener.

Enter color number 2: white

After entering all five colors correctly:
