heck my work Required information MSI has always included games for younger children but now wants to expand its business to capitalize on changes in the industry. The company currently has excess capacity and is investigating several possible ways to improve profitability MSI has been approached by a fourth-grade teacher from Portland about the possibility of creating a specially designed game that would be customized for her classroom and environment. The teacher would like an educational game to correspond to her classroom coverage of the history of the Pacific Northwest, and the state of Oregon in particular. MSI has not sold its products directly to teachers or school systems in the past, but its Marketing Department identified that possibility during a recent meeting. The teacher has offered to buy 1,800 copies of the CD at a price of $5.00 each. MSI could easily modify one of its existing educational programs about U.S. history to accommodate the request. The modifications would cost approximately $490. A summary of the information related to production of MSI's current history program follows. Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Total cost per unit Sales price per unit $ 1.14 8.46 2.14 1.99 $5.64 $13.00 Required: 1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order. 2. Should MSI accept the special order? 3. Suppose that the special order had been to purchase 1,800 copies of the program for $1.50 each. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario. 4. Suppose that MSI is operating at full capacity to accept the special order. it would have to reduce production of the history program. Compute the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order. Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.

MSI has always included games for younger children but now wants to expand its business to capitalize on changes in the industry. The company currently has excess capacity and is investigating several possible ways to improve profitability MSI is considering outsourcing the production of the handheld control module used with some of its products. The company has received a bid from Monte Legend Co. (MLC) to produce 18,000 units of the module per year for $25.00 each. The following information pertains to MSI's production of the control modules: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Total cost per unit $10 7 7 4 $28 MSI has determined that it could eliminate all variable costs if the control modules were produced externally, but none of the fixed overhead is avoidable. At this time, MSi has no specific use in mind for the space that is currently dedicated to the control module production. Required: 1. Compute the difference in cost between making and buying the control module. 2. Should MSI buy the modules from MLC or continue to make them? 3-a. Suppose that the MSI space currently used for the modules could be utilized by a new product line that would generate $28,000 in annual profit. Recompute the difference in cost between making and buying under this scenario. 3-b. Does this change your recommendation to MSI? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.

MSI has determined that elimination of the Post Office Polka (POP) program would not impact sales of the other two items. The remaining fixed overhead currently allocated to the POP product would be redistributed to the remaining two products. Required: 1. Calculate the incremental effect on profit if the POP product is eliminated. 2. Should MSI drop the POP product? 3-a. Calculate the incremental effect on profit if the POP product is eliminated.
