Caiman Distribution Partners is the Brazilian distribution company of a U.S. consumer products firm. Inflation in Brazil has made bidding and budgeting difficult for marketing managers trying to penetrate some of the country's rural regions. The company expects to distribute 450,000 cases of products in Brazil next month. The controller has classified operating costs (excluding costs of the distributed product) as follows. Account Supplies Supervision Truck expense Building leases Utilities Warehouse labor Equipment leases Data processing equipment Other Total Operating Cost $ 350,000 215,000 1,200,000 855,000 215,000 860,000 760,000 945,000 850,000 $6,250,000 Behavior All variable $ 150,000 Fixed $ 190,000 Fixed $ 550,000 Fixed $ 125,000 Fixed $ 140,000 Fixed $ 600,000 Fixed All fixed $ 400,000 Fixed Although overhead costs were related to revenues throughout the company, the experience in Brazil suggested to the managers that they should incorporate information from a published index of Brazilian prices in the distribution sector to forecast overhead in a manner more likely to capture the economics of the business.
