Maximum throughput per month is $144,000. Total throughput for a period is the
$30/unit (from requirement 1) multiplied by the number of units shipped; units
are limited by the lowest-capacity operation, which is Surface Preps 4,800 units
per month: 4,800 units/month $30/unit = $144,000/month.

E20-15
(1)
No, they should not acquire the equipment. Gloss Coat is not the tightest constraint, so increasing its capacity will not help.
(2)
(3)
Yes, an additional Surface Prep (SP) crew should be hired. The increase in overall throughput more than justifies the cost.
(4)
Maximum throughput will increase by about $15,000 per month (500 units/month
$30/unit). SP is the tightest constraint, so increasing its capacity will increase
throughput of the entire system until SPs improvement causes another constraint to become the tightest. Gloss Coat, the second-tightest constraint,
presently has capacity 500 units higher than SPs.
E20-16
(1)
Yes, an inspection should be created just prior to Surface Prep (SP). For each
1,000 shipped, 50 defectives enter SP26, 14, and 10 arising in the three preceding operations, respectively. SP is the tightest constraint, so removing defectives prior to SP will increase total system throughput. At $30 throughput per
unit, the 50 added units (per thousand shipped) do justify the added inspection.
(2)
Removing all defectives just prior to SP will increase the number of good units
entering SP by 50/1,000 or about 5%. With SP presently handling 4,800 units per
month, a 5% increase in units shipped is .05 4,800 = 240. Additional throughput will be 240 units/month $30/unit = $7,200 per month. Because the inspection will cost $1,800 per month, the monthly advantage of the added inspection
operation will be $7,200 minus $1,800, or $5,400 per month.

Almo Company should choose alternative (a) because it will result in the largest
after tax profit.
Alternative (a):
Revenue = ($400 unit sales price 350 units) + (($400 $40 price reduction) 2,700 units)
= $140,000 + $972,000
= $1,112,000
Variable Cost = $200 per unit (350 units sold + 2,700 units to be sold)
= $610,000
After-tax Profit =

Alternative (b):
Revenue = ($400 unit sales price 350 units) + (($400 $30 price reduction) 2,200 units
= $140,000 + $814,000
= $954,000
Variable Cost = ($200 per unit 350 units) + (($200 $25 cost reduction) 2,200 units)
= $70,000 + $385,000
= $455,000
After-tax Profit =

Alternative (c):
Revenue = ($400 unit sales price 350 units) + ($400 (1 5% price reduction) 2,000 units)
= $140,000 + $760,000
= $900,000
Variable Cost = $200 per unit (350 units sold + 2,000 units to be sold)

Star Company could adopt direct costing. Under direct costing, fixed manufacturing costs would be treated as period costs and would not be assigned to production. Consequently, earnings would not be affected by production volume,
but only by sales volume. Statements prepared on a direct-costing basis are as

The advantages of direct costing for internal reporting include the following:
(a) Direct costing aids in forecasting and in evaluating reported income for
internal management decision-making purposes, because fixed costs are
not arbitrarily allocated between accounting periods (or among different
products, sales territories, operating divisions, etc.).
(b) Fixed costs are reported at incurred values (and not absorbed values),
increasing opportunity for more effective control of these costs.
(c) Profits vary directly with sales volume and are unaffected by changes in
inventory levels.
(d) Analysis of the cost-volume-profit relationship is facilitated, and management is able to determine the break-even point and total profit for a given
volume of production and sales.
The disadvantages of direct costing for internal reporting include the following:
(a) Management may fail to consider properly the fixed cost element in longrange pricing decisions.
(b) Direct costing lacks acceptability for external financial reporting or as a
basis for computing taxable income. As a consequence, additional recordkeeping costs must be incurred to use direct costing.
(c) The separation of costs into fixed and variable elements is a costly process.
In addition, the distinction between fixed and variable cost is not precise and
not reliable at all levels of activity.

Daly would determine the number of units of Product Y that it would have to sell
to attain a 20% profit on sales, by dividing total fixed costs plus desired profit
(i.e., 20% of sales price per unit multiplied by the units to attain a 20% profit) by
unit contribution margin (i.e., sales price per unit less variable cost per unit).
(2)
If variable cost per unit increases as a percentage of the sales price, Daly would
have to sell more units of Product Y to break even. Because the unit contribution
margin (i.e., sales price per unit less variable cost per unit) would be lower, Daly
would have to sell more units to cover the fixed cost in order to break even.
