One is located in Kansas City, and the otherin Tulsa, Each plant is set up as a profit center During the past year, both plants sold their tilt wheelchair model for $1,599. Sales volume averages 20,000 units per year in each plant. Recently, the Kansas City plant reduced the price of the tilt model to $1,407. Discussion with the Kansas City manager revealed that the price reduction was possible because the plant had reduced is manufacturing and selling costs by reducing what was called \"non-vaiue-added costs." The Kansas City manufacturing and selling costs for the tilt model were $1,227 per unit. The Kansas City manager offered to loan the Tulsa plant his cost accounting manager to help it achieve similar results. The Tulsa plant manager readily agreed, knowing that his plant must keep pacenot only with the Kansas City plant but also with competitors. A local competitor had also reduced its price on a similar model, and Tulsa's marketing manager had indicated that the price must be matched or sales would drop dramatically. In fact, the marketing manager suggested that it the price were dropped to $1,372 by the end of the year, the plant could expand its share of the market by 20 percent. The plant manager agreed but insisted that the current prot per unit must be maintained. He also wants to know 'rfthe plant can at least match the $1,227 perrunit cost of the Kansas City plant and if the plant can achieve the cost reduction using the approach of the Kansas City plant. The plant controller and the Kansas City cost accounting manager have assembled thefoilowing data for the most recent year. The actual cost of inputs, their value-added (ideal) quantity levels, and the actual quantity levels are provided (for production of 20,000 units). Assume there is no difference between actual prices of activity units and standard prices.

Yes v Can the target cost for expanding market share be achieved? Yes v What actions would you take if you were the plant manager? Lower the price since the target cost can be achieved. v Feedback Check My Work 1.
