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

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $195 and $150, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $5 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 123,000 units of each product. Its unit costs for each product at this level of activity are given below:

	Alpha				Beta
Direct materials		$	40			$	15
Direct labor			34				28
Variable manufacturing overhead			22				20
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead			30				33
Variable selling expenses			27				23
Common fixed expenses			30				25
Total cost per unit		$	183			$	144

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.

KNOWN:

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

Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead Alpha $3,690,000 Beta $4,059,000

B.What is the companys total amount of common fixed expenses $6,765,000

C.Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 95,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 25,000 additional Alphas for a price of $140 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease? Net operating income increases by $1100000

Need to know:

D.Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 105,000 Betas during the current year. One of Canes sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 2,000 additional Betas for a price of $63 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease? Net operating income Decreases by?

F. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 105,000 Betas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much will profits increase or decrease?E.Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 110,000 Alphas during the current year. One of Cane's sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 25,000 additional Alphas for a price of $140 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? Profit ? By?

H. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 75,000 Betas and 95,000 Alphas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, its sales representatives could increase sales of Alpha by 15,000 units. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much would profits increase or decrease?G. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 55,000 Betas per year. If Cane discontinues the Beta product line, how much will profits increase or decrease? Profit ? By?

J.Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 70,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 70,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $140 per unit. If Cane buys 70,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, how much will profits increase or decrease?I.Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 95,000 Alphas during the current year. A supplier has offered to manufacture and deliver 95,000 Alphas to Cane for a price of $140 per unit. If Cane buys 95,000 units from the supplier instead of making those units, how much will profits increase or decrease? Profit ? By?

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

L. Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 95,000 units of Alpha and 75,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 245,000 pounds. How many units of each product should Cane produce to maximize its profits? Units Produced Alpha? Beta?

M. Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 95,000 units of Alpha and 75,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 245,000 pounds. What is the maximum contribution margin Cane Company can earn given the limited quantity of raw materials? Total contribution margin?

N.Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 95,000 units of Alpha and 75,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 245,000 pounds. Up to how much should it be willing to pay per pound for additional raw materials? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Maximum price to be paid per pound?
