Miller Toy Company manufactures a plastic swimming pool at its Westwood Plant. The plant has been experiencing problems as shown by its June contribution format income statement below: Flexible Budget $ 275,000 Actual $275,000 Sales (4,000 pools) Variable expenses: Variable cost of goods sold* Variable selling expenses Total variable expenses Contribution margin Fixed expenses: Manufacturing overhead Selling and administrative Total fixed expenses Net operating income (loss) 74,720 27,000 101,720 173,280 90,040 27,000 117,040 157,960 68,000 93,000 161,000 12,280 $ 68,000 93,000 161,000 (3,040) $ *Contains direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead. Janet Dunn, who has just been appointed general manager of the Westwood Plant, has been given instructions to "get things under control." Upon reviewing the plant's income statement, Ms. Dunn has concluded that the major problem lies in the variable cost of goods sold. She has been provided with the following standard cost per swimming pool: or Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Total standard cost per unit Standard Quantity or Hours 4.3 pounds 0.6 hours 0.3 hours* Standard Price or Rate $ 2.90 per pound $ 8.40 per hour $ 3.90 per hour Standard Cost $ 12.47 5.04 1.17 $ 18.68 *Based on machine-hours. 2.
