Please do not attempt if partially answer. Please provide answer for ALL questions

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $185 and $120, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $5 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 112,000 units of each product. Its unit costs for each product at this level of activity are given below:

	Alpha			Beta
Direct materials		$	30		$	10
Direct labor			22			29
Variable manufacturing overhead			20			13
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead			24			26
Variable selling expenses			20			16
Common fixed expenses			23			18

Total cost per unit		$	139		$	112

The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are deemed unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars.

Questions:

What is the total amount of traceable fixed manufacturing overhead for the Alpha product line and for the Beta product line?

What is the companys total amount of common fixed expenses?

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 88,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 18,000 additional Alphas for a price of $112 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease?

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 98,000 Betas during the current year. One of Canes sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 4,000 additional Betas for a price of $47 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease?

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 103,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 18,000 additional Alphas for a price of $112 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, it will decrease Alpha sales to regular customers by 9,000 units.

a.	Calculate the incremental net operating income if the order is accepted? (Loss amount should be indicated with a minus sign.)

6.	Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 98,000 Betas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much will profits increase or decrease?

7.	Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 48,000 Betas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much will profits increase or decrease?

8.	Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 68,000 Betas and 88,000 Alphas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, its sales representatives could increase sales of Alpha by 12,000 units. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much would profits increase or decrease?

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 88,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 88,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $112 per unit. If Cane buys 88,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, how much will profits increase or decrease?

10.

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 58,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 58,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $112 per unit. If Cane buys 58,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, how much will profits increase or decrease?

11.	How many pounds of raw material are needed to make one unit of Alpha and one unit of Beta?

12.	What contribution margin per pound of raw material is earned by Alpha and Beta? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

13.	Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 88,000 units of Alpha and 68,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 172,000 pounds. How many units of each product should Cane produce to maximize its profits?

14.

Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 88,000 units of Alpha and 68,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 172,000 pounds. What is the maximum contribution margin Cane Company can earn given the limited quantity of raw materials?

15.

Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 88,000 units of Alpha and 68,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 172,000 pounds. Up to how much should it be willing to pay per pound for additional raw materials? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
