image text in transcribed 1. Lampshire Inc. is considering using stocks of an old raw material in a special project. The special project would require all 160 kilograms of the raw material that are in stock and that originally cost the company $1,336 in total. If the company were to buy new supplies of this raw material on the open market, it would cost $7.35 per kilogram. However, the company has no other use for this raw material and would sell it at the discounted price of $6.65 per kilogram if it were not used in the special project. The sale of the raw material would involve delivery to the purchaser at a total cost of $77 for all 160 kilograms. What is the relevant cost of the 160 kilograms of the raw material when deciding whether to proceed with the special project? $1,064 $987 $1,162 $1,176 2. Part A42 is used by Elgin Corporation to make one of its products. A total of 23,000 units of this part are produced and used every year. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the part at this level of activity: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Supervisor's salary Depreciation of special equipment Allocated general overhead Per Unit $8.90 $10.30 $6.90 $7.00 $9.40 $6.70 An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $36.00 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including the direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company, none of which would be avoided if the part were purchased instead of produced internally. In addition, the space used to make part A42 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $30,000 per year for that product. What would be the impact on the company's overall net operating income of buying part A42 from the outside supplier? Net operating income would decrease by $36,700 per year. Net operating income would decrease by $241,400 per year. Net operating income would increase by $30,000 per year. Net operating income would decrease by $299,000 per year. 3. Iwasaki Inc. is considering whether to continue to make a component or to buy it from an outside supplier. The company uses 14,200 of the components each year. The unit product cost of the component according to the company's absorption cost accounting system is given as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Unit product cost $ 10.00 7.00 2.80 4.80 $24.60 Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. Of the fixed manufacturing overhead, 30% is avoidable if the component were bought from the outside supplier, the remainder is not avoidable. In addition, making the component uses 1 minutes on the machine that is the company's current constraint. If the component were bought, time would be freed up for use on another product that requires 2 minutes on this machine and that has a contribution margin of $6.40 per unit. When deciding whether to make or buy the component, what cost of making the component should be compared to the price of buying the component? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.) $27.80 $24.00 $21.24 $24.44 4. Gwinnett Barbecue Sauce Corporation manufactures a specialty barbecue sauce. Gwinnett has the capacity to manufacture and sell 17,500 cases of sauce each year but is currently only manufacturing and selling 16,000. The following costs relate to annual operations at 16,000 cases: Variable manufacturing cost Fixed manufacturing cost Variable selling and administrative cost Fixed selling and administrative cost Total Cost $288,000 $60,000 $48,000 $42,000 Gwinnett normally sells its sauce for $40 per case. A local school district is interested in purchasing Gwinnett's excess capacity of 1,500 cases of sauce but only if they can get the sauce for $20 per case. This special order would not affect regular sales or total fixed costs or variable costs per unit. If this special order is accepted, Gwinnett's profits for the year will: increase by $1,200 decrease by $1,500 decrease by $16,000 decrease by $11,500 5. Farnsworth Television makes and sells portable television sets. Each television regularly sells for $260. The following cost data per television are based on a full capacity of 15,000 televisions produced each period: Direct materials Direct labor Manufacturing overhead (80% variable, 20% unavoidable fixed) $95 $75 $45 A special order has been received by Farnsworth for a sale of 2,500 televisions to an overseas customer. The only selling costs that would be incurred on this order would be $10 per television for shipping. Farnsworth is now selling 7,500 televisions through regular distributors each period. What should be the minimum selling price per television in negotiating a price for this special order? $260 $206 $215 $216 6. Wiacek Corporation has received a request for a special order of 5,300 units of product F65 for $28.30 each. Product F65's unit product cost is $27.65, determined as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Unit product cost $3.25 8.55 7.65 8.20 $27.65 Direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The customer would like modifications made to product F65 that would increase the variable costs by $4.60 per unit and that would require an investment of $17,000 in special molds that would have no salvage value. This special order would have no effect on the company's other sales. The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order. If the special order is accepted, the company's overall net operating income would increase (decrease) by: $(37,935) $5,525 $3,445 $(94,075) 7. Two products, IF and RI, emerge from a joint process. Product IF has been allocated $28,300 of the total joint costs of $49,000. A total of 2,300 units of product IF are produced from the joint process. Product IF can be sold at the split-off point for $12 per unit, or it can be processed further for an additional total cost of $10,300 and then sold for $14 per unit. If product IF is processed further and sold, what would be the effect on the overall profit of the company compared with sale in its unprocessed form directly after the split-off point? $35,200 less profit $5,700 less profit $21,900 more profit $22,600 more profit 8. Tawstir Corporation has 400 obsolete personal computers that are carried in inventory at a total cost of $576,000. If these computers are upgraded at a total cost of $110,000, they can be sold for a total of $170,000. As an alternative, the computers can be sold in their present condition for $40,000. Suppose the selling price of the upgraded computers has not been set. At what selling price per unit would the company be as well off upgrading the computers as if it just sold the computers in their present condition? $55 $308 $375 $120 9. Eley Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 58,000 units per month is as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing $51.60 $9.90 $2.90 overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Variable selling & administrative expense Fixed selling & administrative expense $20.90 $5.40 $26 The normal selling price of the product is $122.10 per unit. An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,800 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would have no effect on the company's normal sales and would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $3.00 less per unit on this order than on normal sales. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. Suppose there is ample idle capacity to produce the units required by the overseas customer and the special discounted price on the special order is $94.40 per unit. By how much would this special order increase (decrease) the company's net operating income for the month? $(92,000) $25,460 $104,880 $(84,740) 10. Eley Corporation produces a single product.

An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,000 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would have no effect on the company's normal sales and would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $2.20 less per unit on this order than on normal sales. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. Suppose the company is already operating at capacity when the special order is received from the overseas customer. What would be the opportunity cost of each unit delivered to the overseas customer? $43.50 $18.40 $19.70 $17.20 11. Eley Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 60,000 units per month is as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Variable selling & administrative expense Fixed selling & administrative expense $52.60 $10.10 $3.10 $21.30 $5.80 $28 The normal selling price of the product is $126.10 per unit. An order has been received from an overseas customer for 4,000 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would have no effect on the company's normal sales and would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $3.20 less per unit on this order than on normal sales. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the special order would require cutting back on production of 1,700 units for regular customers. The minimum acceptable price per unit for the special order is closest to: $126.10 $102.90 $69.10 $91.56 12. The following are the Jensen Corporation's unit costs of making and selling an item at a volume of 2,800 units per month (which represents the company's capacity): Manufacturing: Direct materials Direct labor Variable overhead Fixed overhead Selling and Administrative: Variable Fixed $2.80 $3.80 $2.30 $0.75 $3.80 $1.15 Present sales amount to 1,600 units per month. An order has been received from a customer in a foreign market for 280 units. The order would not affect current sales. Fixed costs, both manufacturing and selling and administrative, are constant within the relevant range between 1,600 units and 2,800 units. The variable selling and administrative expenses would have to be incurred on this special order as well as for all other sales. Direct labor is a variable cost. Assume the company has 90 units left over from last year which have small defects and which will have to be sold at a reduced price for scrap. The sale of these defective units will have no effect on the company's other sales. Which of the following costs is relevant in this decision? rev: 11_29_2014_QC_60187 $8.90 variable manufacturing cost $9.65 unit product cost $3.80 variable selling and administrative cost $14.60 full cost 13.
