Spiffy Shades Corporation manufactures artistic frames for sunglasses. Talia Demarest, controller, is responsible for preparing the companys master budget. In compiling the budget data for 20x1, Demarest has learned that new automated production equipment will be installed on March 1. This will reduce the direct labor per frame from 4.0 hours to 3.75 hours.

Labor-related costs include pension contributions of $1.05 per hour, workers compensation insurance of $0.75 per hour, employee medical insurance of $3 per hour, and employer contributions to Social Security equal to 6.00 percent of direct-labor wages. The cost of employee benefits paid by the company on its employees is treated as a direct-labor cost. Spiffy Shades Corporation has a labor contract that calls for a wage increase to $22.00 per hour on April 1, 20x1. Management expects to have 19,000 frames on hand at December 31, 20x0, and has a policy of carrying an end-of-month inventory of 100 percent of the following months sales plus 40 percent of the second following months sales.

These and other data compiled by Demarest are summarized in the following table.
