The Company's profits have been declining over the past few months. Management is concern over the decline in profits and is examining each of its product line closely to determine the reason for the decline. One of the Company's main product is leather belts.

The belts then enter a final finishing stage to conclude the manufacturing process. Labor and overheads are continually applied during the manufacturing process. All materials are added at the beginning of the process and the company uses a weighted-average method to calculate unit cost. The leather belts produced at the Kajang Factory are sold to wholesalers at a price of RM 14.50 Management wants to compare the current manufacturing cost to the wholesale price. Management has a policy to earn at least 25% margin above cost to ensure that the overall profitability of the Company is maintained. Currently, the cost per belt used for planning and control purposes is RM 11.50. Top management has asked the factory accountant in Kajang to submit the relevant data on the cost of manufacturing the leather belts for the month of October.

The company buys coffee beans from around the world and roasts, blends and packages them for resale. KPSB offers a large variety of different coffees that it sells to gourmet shops in one pound bags. The major cost of the coffee is raw materials. However, the company's predominantly automated roasting, blending and packing processes require a substantial amount of overhead. The company uses relatively little direct labor. Some of KPSB's coffee are very popular and sells in large volumes, while a few of the newer blends sells in very low volumes. KPSB prices its coffees at manufacturing cost plus a markup of 25% with some adjustments made to keep the company's prices competitive. For the coming year, KPSB's budget includes estimated manufacturing overhead cost of RM2,200,000. KPSB assigns manufacturing overhead to products on the basis of direct labor hours. The expected direct labor cost totals RM 600,000 which represents 50,000 hours of direct labor time. Based on the sales budget and expected raw materials costs, the company will purchase and use $5,000,000 of raw materials ( mostly coffee beans) during the year. The expected costs for direct materials and direct labor for one pound bags of two of the company's products appear below: Blue Coffee (RM) 4.50 0.24 Direct materials Direct labor (0.02 hrs per bag) White Coffee (RM) 2.90 0.24 KPSB's controller believes that the company's traditional costing system may be providing misleading cost information.
