P12.38 Interdivisional transfers; pricing the final product: manufacturer LO 12.11 _] , 12.130 Bean Industries is a diversified corporation with separate operating divisions. Each division's performance is evaluated on the basis of profit and return on investment. The Zephyr Division manufactures and sells air-conditioning units. The coming year's budgeted profit statement, which follows, is based on a sales volume of 15 000 units. Page577 Zephyr Division Budgeted profit statement Per unit Total (in $'000s) Sales revenue $1 600 $24 000 Manufacturing costs: Compressor $ 280 $ 4 200 Other direct material 148 2 220 Direct labour 120 1800 Variable overhead 180 2 700 Fixed overhead 128 1920 Total manufacturing costs $ 856 $12 840 Gross margin $ 744 $11 160 Operating expenses:Variable selling $ 72 $ 1080 Fixed selling 76 1 140 Fixed administrative 152 2 280 Total operating expenses $ 300 $ 4 500 Net profit before taxes $ 444 $ 6 660The manager of the Zephyr Division believes that sales can be increased if the price of the air conditioners is reduced. Market research by an independent firm indicates that a 5 per cent reduction in the selling price would increase sales volume by 20 per cent, or 3 000 units. Zephyr has sufficient production capacity to manage this increased volume with no increase in fixed costs. Zephyr uses a compressor in its units, which it purchases from an outside supplier at a cost of $150 per compressor. The division manager of Zephyr has asked the manager of the Components Division about selling compressor units to Zephyr. The Components Division currently manufactures and sells a compressor to outside firms, but the specifications of the Zephyr compressor are slightly different. Producing compressors to suit Zephyr's specifications would reduce direct material cost by $4 per unit. In addition, the Components Division would not incur any variable selling costs in the units sold to Zephyr. The manager of Zephyr wants all the compressors it uses to come from one supplier, and has offered to pay $120 for each compressor unit. The Components Division has capacity to produce Z5 CID-U compressors. Its budgeted profit statement for the coming year, which follows, is based on a sales volume of 64 DOD units, without considering Zephyr's proposal. Additional 5 Euestions a) Following from 1312.38 requirement 2 where Zephyr needs 13,000 units of compressors, use the general transfer pricing rule to calculate the transfer price that Components Division should charge Zephyr for l compressor. b) Prepare prot and loss statements to calculate the profitfloss for Components Division, Zephyr Division and Bean Industries if Components Division: i. Decides to sell 18,000 compressors to Zephyr based the transfer price calculated in {a}. ii. Decides not to sell 13,000 compressors to Zephyr. c) If the bonus of the Components Division's manager is based on divisional prots, given the calculations in part (b), will shefhe accept or reject Zephyr's offer? Is this an \"goal congruent\" decision? Explain your answer. (1) Assume that Bean Industries has adopted the \"negotiated price\" approach to setting transfer prices. As a result, the manager of Components Division and the manager of Zephyr Division are now engaging in negotiations. What do you think the fmal transfer price will be? Explain your
