This is my 4th time posting this question, if you do not fully understand it please leave it to someone who is more experinced than you to answer it.

Richter Company has a single product called a Wim. The company normally produces and sells 87,000 Wims each year at a selling price of $40 per unit. The companys unit costs at this level of activity are given below:

Direct materials	$	8.50
Direct labor		12.00
Variable manufacturing overhead		3.80
Fixed manufacturing overhead		6.00
Variable selling expenses		4.70
Fixed selling expenses		4.50
Total cost per unit	$	39.50

A number of questions relating to the production and sale of Wims are given below. Each question is independent.

Required:
1.	Assume that Richter Company has sufficient capacity to produce 113,100 Wims each year without any increase in fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The company could increase sales by 30% above the present 87,000 units each year if it were willing to increase the fixed selling expenses by $130,000.

a.	Calculate the incremental net operating income. (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)

b.

Would the increased fixed selling expenses be justified?

	Yes
	No

2.

Assume again that Richter Company has sufficient capacity to produce 113,100 Wims each year. The company has an opportunity to sell 26,100 units in an overseas market. Import duties, foreign permits, and other special costs associated with the order would total $13,050. The only selling costs that would be associated with the order would be $1.30 per unit shipping cost. Compute the per unit break-even price on this order. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

3.

One of the materials used in the production of Wims is obtained from a foreign supplier. Civil unrest in the suppliers country has caused a cutoff in material shipments that is expected to last for three months. Richter Company has enough material on hand to operate at 25% of normal levels for the three-month period. As an alternative, the company could close the plant down entirely for the three months. Closing the plant would reduce fixed manufacturing overhead costs by 30% during the three-month period and the fixed selling expenses would continue at two-thirds of their normal level. What would be the impact on profits of closing the plant for the three-month period? (Round your intermediate calculations of units produced and sold to the nearest whole number. Do not round your other intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to nearest whole number.)

4.

The company has 500 Wims on hand that were produced last month and have small blemishes. Due to the blemishes, it will be impossible to sell these units at the normal price. If the company wishes to sell them through regular distribution channels, what unit cost figure is relevant for setting a minimum selling price? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

5.

An outside manufacturer has offered to produce Wims and ship them directly to Richters customers. If Richter Company accepts this offer, the facilities that it uses to produce Wims would be idle; however, fixed manufacturing overhead costs would continue at 30%. Because the outside manufacturer would pay for all shipping costs, the variable selling expenses would be reduced by 60%. Compute the unit cost that is relevant for comparison to the price quoted by the outside manufacturer. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
