Kann Corporation produces industrial robots for high-precision manufacturing. The following information is available: Per Unit Direct materials $25.00 Direct labor $10.00 Variable manufacturing Overhead Total $ 6.00 Fixed manufacturing overhead Variable selling & administrative costs Fixed selling & administrative costs $36,000 $ 4.00 $15,000 The company has a desired ROI of 20%. It has invested assets of $420,000. It anticipates making and selling 3,000 units per year. REQUIRED: Part 1: Using the total (full) cost concept, determine the (a) unit cost amount; (b) markup percentage; and (c) unit target selling price. Part 2: Using the product (absorption) cost concept, determine the (a) unit cost amount; and (b) markup percentage. Part 3: Using the variable cost concept, determine the (a) unit cost amount; and (b) markup percentage. Part 4: What is the target unit selling price under the three cost assumptions? Part 5: What else should be considered when setting the product's selling price? Part 6: Which of the three costing concepts would be most appropriate in each of the following situations? 1. External reporting for GAAP 2. Normal (long-run) pricing 3. Evaluating special orders Part 7: Kann Corporation received a special order for 500 robots at $50 each from a foreign customer. Acceptance of the order would increase variable selling costs by $1.70 per unit because of shipping costs, but would not increase fixed costs or interfere with any current orders. Prepare a differential analysis to determine whether the special order should be accepted or not.
