Financial data for the four products are shown below: Product A Units sold Revenue Product B Product C Product D 25,000 18,750 3,750 2,500 $750,000 $600,000 $150,000 $100,000 Unit variable costs 24 24 37 41 Which product should the company discontinue? A. Product A. B. Product B. C. Product C. D. Product D. Listed below are a company's monthly unit costs to manufacture and market a particular product. Manufacturing costs: Direct materials $2.00 Direct labor 2.40 Variable indirect 1.60 Fixed indirect 1.00 Marketing costs: Variable 2.50 Fixed 1.50 The company must decide to continue making the product or buy it from an outside supplier. The supplier has offered to make the product at the same level of quality that the company can make it. Fixed marketing costs would be unaffected, but variable marketing costs would be reduced by 30% if the company were to accept the proposal. What is the maximum amount per unit that the company can pay the supplier without decreasing operating income? A. $8.50 B. $6.75 C. $7.75 D. $5.25 Leland Manufacturing uses 10 units of Part Number KJ37 each month in the production of radar equipment. The unit cost to manufacture 1 unit of KJ37 is presented below. Direct materials $ 1,000 Materials handling (20% of direct materials cost) 200 Direct labor 8,000 Manufacturing overhead (150% of direct labor) 12,000 Total manufacturing cost $21,200 Materials handling represents the direct variable costs of the Receiving Department that are applied to direct materials and purchased components on the basis of their cost. This is a separate charge in addition to manufacturing overhead. Leland's annual manufacturing overhead budget is one-third variable and two-thirds fixed. Scott Supply, one of Leland's reliable vendors, has offered to supply Part Number KJ37 at a unit price of $15,000. Assume Leland Manufacturing is able to rent all idle capacity for $25,000 per month. If Leland decides to purchase the 10 units from Scott Supply, Leland's monthly cost for KJ37 would A. Increase $48,000. B. Increase $23,000. C. Decrease $7,000. D. Change by some amount other than those given. Stewart Industries has been producing two bearings, components B12 and B18, for use in production. B12 B18 Machine hours required per unit 2.5 3.0 Standard cost per unit: Direct material $ 2.25 $ 3.75 Direct labor 4.00 4.50 Manufacturing overhead: Variable (See Note 1) 2.00 2.25 Fixed (See Note 2) 3.75 4.50 $12.00 $15.00 Stewart's annual requirement for these components is 8,000 units of B12 and 11,000 units of B18. Recently, Stewart's management decided to devote additional machine time to other product lines resulting in only 41,000 machine hours per year that can be dedicated to the production of the bearings. An outside company has offered to sell Stewart the annual supply of the bearings at prices of $11.25 for B12 and $13.50 for B18. Stewart wants to schedule the otherwise idle 41,000 machine hours to produce bearings so that the company can minimize its costs (maximize its net benefits). Note 1: Variable manufacturing overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours. Note 2: Fixed manufacturing overhead is applied on the basis of machine hours. The net benefit (loss) per machine hour that would result if Stewart accepts the supplier's offer of $13.50 per unit for Component B18 is A. $.50 B. $(1.00) C. $(1.75) D. Some amount other than those given. Directions: Select the best answer. Previous Next Review Items Costs relevant to an insourcing vs. outsourcing decision include variable manufacturing costs as well as A. Avoidable fixed costs. B. Factory depreciation. C. Property taxes. D. Factory management costs. A company makes fine glassware that is sold in high-end retail stores. Sales tend to be seasonal, with peaks occurring during winter holidays and the spring wedding season.

The company is preparing the annual budget and has gathered the following data: Bowls Average selling price $30 Vases $ 25 0 0 Labor hours per unit 3.5 2.8 Cost per unit less labor $18 3 $150.40 Annual sales forecast in units 800 1,000 Available labor hours = 3,600 Labor rate per hour = $22 The most profitable allocation of the scarce resource next year would be to manufacture A. 400 bowls and 500 vases. B. 800 bowls and 285 vases. C. 800 bowls and 1,000 vases. D. 228 bowls and 1,000 vases. A company's approach to an insourcing vs. outsourcing decision A. Depends on whether the company is operating at or below normal volume. B. Involves an analysis of avoidable costs. C. Should use absorption (full) costing. D. Should use activity-based costing. A company has decided to discontinue a product produced on a machine purchased 4 years ago at a cost of $70,000. The machine has a current book value of $30,000. Due to technologically improved machinery now available in the marketplace the existing machine has no current salvage value. The company is reviewing the various aspects involved in the production of a new product. The engineering staff advised that the existing machine can be used to produce the new product. Other costs involved in the production of the new product will be materials of $20,000 and labor priced at $5,000. Ignoring income taxes, the costs relevant to the decision to produce or not to produce the new product would be A. $25,000 B. $30,000 C. $55,000 D. $95,000 A company plans to sell 12,000 units of product XT and 8,000 units of product RP. The company has a capacity of 12,000 productive machine hours. The unit cost structure and machine hours required for each product are as follows: Unit costs: XT RP Materials $37 $24 Direct labor 12 13 Variable overhead Fixed overhead 6 3 37 38 Machine hours required 1.0 1.5 The company can purchase 12,000 units of XT at $60 and/or 8,000 units of RP at $45. Based on the above, which one of the following actions should be recommended to the company's management? A. Produce XT internally and purchase RP. B. Produce RP internally and purchase XT. C. Purchase both XT and RP. D. Produce both XT and RP. A furniture manufacturer currently has three divisions: Maple, Oak, and Cherry. The oak furniture line does not seem to be doing well, and the president of the manufacturer is considering dropping this line. If it is dropped, the revenues associated with the Oak Division will be lost and the related variable costs saved. Also, 50% of the fixed costs allocated to the oak furniture line would be eliminated. The income statements, by divisions, are as follows: Maple Oak Cherry Sales $55,000 $85,000 $100,000 Variable costs 40,000 72,000 82,000 Contribution margin $15,000 $13,000 $ 18,000 Fixed costs 10,000 14,000 10,200 Operating profit (loss) $ 5,000 $ (1,000) $ 7,800 Which one of the following options should be recommended to the president of the manufacturer? A. Continue operating the Oak Division as discontinuance would result in a total operating loss of $1,200. B. Continue operating the Oak Division as discontinuance would result in a $6,000 decline in operating profits. C. Discontinue the Oak Division which would result in a $1,000 increase in operating profits. D. Discontinue the Oak Division which would result in a $7,000 increase in operating profits
