[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $205 and $164, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $8 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 127,000 units of each product. Its unit costs for each product at this level of activity are given below:

	Alpha	Beta
Direct materials	$40	$24
Direct labor	37	30
Variable manufacturing overhead	24	22
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead	32	35
Variable selling expenses	29	25
Common fixed expenses	32	27
Total cost per unit	$194	$163

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.

5. Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 112,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 27,000 additional Alphas for a price of $148 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, it will decrease Alpha sales to regular customers by 12,000 units.Calculate the incremental net operating income if the order is accepted?

8. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 77,000 Betas and 97,000 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?

9. Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 97,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 97,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $148 per unit. If Cane buys 97,000 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 72,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 72,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $148 per unit. If Cane buys 72,000 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?
