Lynn Hardt, a management Accountant with the Paibec Corporation, is evaluating whether a component, MTR-2000 should continue to be manufactured by Paibec or purchased from Marley Company, an outside supplier. Marley has submitted a bid to manufacture and supply the 32,000 units of MTR-2000 that Paibec will need for 2000 at a unit price of $17.30 to be delivered according to Paibec production specifications and needs. While the contract price of $17.30 is only applicable in 2000, Marley is interested in entering into a ling-term arrangement beyond 2000.
26 Hardt had gathered the following information regarding Paibecs annual cost to manufacture 30,000 units of MTE-2000 in 1999.
Direct material Direct labor Plant space rental costs Equipment leasing costs Other manufacturing overhead costs Total manufacturing costs
Hardt has collected the following additional information related to manufacturing MTR-2000
Direct materials used in the production of MTR-2000 are expected to increase eight percent in 1999. Paibecs direct manufacturing labor contract calls for a fivepercent increase in 2000. Paibec can withdraw from the plant space rental agreement without any penalty. Paibec will have no need for this space if MTR-2000 is not manufactured. The equipment lease can be terminated by paying $6,000. Fort percent of the other manufacturing overhead is considered variable. Variable overhead changes with the number of units produced. The rate per unit is not expected to change in 2000. The fixed manufacturing overhead costs are not expected to change whether or not MTR-2000 is manufactured.
John Porter, plant manager at the Paibec Corporation is concerned that Hardts analysis may lead to the closing down of the MTR-2000 line. Porter indicates to Hardt that the current performance of the plant can be significantly improved upon and that the price
27 increases she is assuming are unlikely to occur. Hence, the analysis should be done assuming costs will be considerably below current levels. Hardt knows that Porter is concerned about outsourcing MTR-2000 because it will mean that some of his close friends will be laid off. Furthermore, Porter will achieve the lower costs Porter describes. She is very confident about the accuracy of the information she has collected, but she is unhappy about laying off employees.
Required:
1. On the basis of the information Hardt has obtained, should Paibec make MTR2000 or buy it? Show all your calculations.

Problem No 11 (Special order) Clean-it Company produces cleaning kits for shotguns. The production capacity available will enable the firm to produce 500,000 kits annually. A projected income statement for the next year shows: Sales (460,000 Kits) Cost of goods sold Gross Profit $4,600,000 2,960,000 1,640,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead costs included in the cost of goods sold are $1,120,000. A 10% sales commission is paid to sales representatives for each kit sold. The purchasing department of a large discount chain has offered to purchase 30,000 kits as $6 each. The clean-it Company sales managers initial response is to refuse the offer because he concludes that the $6 price is below the firms average cost ($ 2,960,000/460,000). The sales commission would not be paid on the special order.
a) Should the special offer be accepted? What would be the impact on net income? VC = 2,960,000 1,120,000 = 1,840,000 VC per unit = 1,840,000 460,000 = $ 4 CM = 6-4 = $2 Additional profit = 30,000 2 = $60,000 b) Assume that the offer was for 50,000 kits.

The alternatives are: 1. Purchase new equipment at $5,000,000. The equipment would have a 5-year life with no salvage value. Best Buy uses straight-line amortization and allocates that amount on a unit-of-production basis. 2. Purchase the needed KJF621 assembly from an outsider source that will sell them for $90 per unit on a 3-year contract. Best Buys cost of producing the assemblies is based on a current and normal activity of 50,000 units per year and is as follows: Direct Material Direct Labor Variable overhead Fixed overhead $30 40 6 36
Fixed overhead includes $7 supervisory cost, $9 amortization, and $20 general company overhead. The new equipment would be more efficient than the old and would reduce direct labor costs and variable overhead costs by 25%. Supervisory costs of $400,000 are avoidable if the units are purchased.

Problem No 13 Foster Company makes 20,000 units per year of a part that it uses in the products it manufactures. The unit product cost of this part is computed as follows. Direct Materials Direct Labor Variable manufacturing Overhead Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Unit product cost $24.70 $16.30 $2.30 $13.40 $56.70
An outsider supplier has offered to sell the company all the parts that Foster needs for $51.80 a unit. If the company accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to make the part could be used to make more units of a product that is in high demand. The additional contribution margin on this other product would be $44,000 per year. If the part were purchased from the outside supplier, all of the direct labor cost of the part would be avoided. However,$5.10 of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost that is being applied to the part would continue, even if the part were purchased from the outside supplier. This fixed manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the companys remaining products. Required: a) How much of the unit product cost of $56.70 is relevant in the decision of whether to make or buy the part? b) What is the net total dollar advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing the part rather
39 than making it? c) What is the maximum amount of the company should be willing to pay an outside supplier per unit for the part if the supplier commits to supplying all 20,000 units required each year?

Problem No 16 (Elimination of a product) Triangle limited manufactures and sells three different products; Isosceles, Equilateral and Scalene. The projected income statements by production line for the year are presented below. Isoscele Equilateral s 10,000 500,000 $925,00 $1,000,00 0 0 285,000 350,000 Scalene 125,000 $575,00 0 150,000 Total 635,000 $2,500,0 00 785,000

The fixed selling and administrative expenses are allocated to products in proportion to revenue. The fixed cost of units sold is allocated to products by various allocation bases such as square meters for factory rent, machine hours for repairs etc. Triangles management is concerned about the loss for the Isosceles products and is considering two alternative forces of corrective action. Alternative A: The Company would lease some new machinery for the production of Isosceles. The annual rental of the new machinery would equal $50,000. Management expects that the new machinery would reduce variable production cost so that the total variable production costs for Isosceles would be 20% Isosceles revenues. The machinery would increase the total fixed cost and expenses (production and administrative) by $40,000 per year. Because of the increased quality of production of the new machine it is expected that sales of Isosceles will increase by 10%. Alternative B The Company would discontinue the manufacture of Isosceles. Selling prices for Equilateral and Scalene would not change. Management expects that scalene production and revenues would increase by 50%. However production and revenues of Equilateral would decrease by 10%. Some of the production machinery devoted to Isosceles could be sold at scrap value, which would equal its removal costs. The removal of this machinery would reduce the fixed costs and expenses by $30,000 per year. The remaining fixed costs and expenses allocated to Isosceles include $155,000 of rent expense per year. The space previous used for Isosceles can be rented to an outside organization for $157,500 per year. Required Prepare a schedule analyzing the effects of Alternative A and Alternative B on projected net income before income taxes. Use incremental analysis. Problem No 17 (make or buy)

Problem No 19 WCL, a producer of precision tools, has a production capacity limit of 4,000 laser machine hours and 1,000 image machine hours. The direct costs per hour to operate the machines are $ 15 and $ 20, respectively. A prospective customer, company K, offered $ 35,000 to WCL to build a custom tool. The materials involved are expected to cost $ 5,000, and 200 laser machine hours and 10 image machine hours would be required. Indirect overhead is allocated based on the following regression equation: y = 200,000 + 50 x + 10 z, where y is total overhead cost, x is laser machine hours and z is image machine hours. 1 Assume that, if the offer from company K is accepted, WCL will just reach its operating capacity. By what amount would WCLs income increase by accepting the offer? a) b) c) d) e) $8,300 $16,700 $21,700 $26,800 $31,800 $35,000 $5,000 3,000 200 10,100 18,300 $16,700 2 Assume that both machines are operating 90% of capacity, all current production is sold at $ 1,500 per unit, each unit requires $ 250 of direct materials, 4 laser machine hours, and 1 image machine hour to produce, indirect variable overhead costs are

Problem No 21 (Machine Replacement) Village Pizzas owner bought his current Pizza oven two years ago for $9,000, and it has one more year of life remaining. He is using straight line depreciation for the oven. He could purchase a new oven for $1,900, but it would last only one year. The owner figures the new oven would save him $2,600 in annual operating expenses compared to the old one. Consequently, he has decided against buying the new oven, since doing so would result in a loss of $00 over the next year.
Required
How do you suppose the owner came up with $400 as the loss for the next year if the new pizza oven were purchased? Criticize the owners decision and prepare correct analysis of the owners decision.
Solution (P-21)
1. Saving in annual operating expenses if old pizza oven is replaced $2,600 BV (3,000) Loss ($400) of old oven ($9,0003)
54 2. Saving in annual operating expenses if old pizza oven is replaced $2,600 Cost (1,900) Net benefit $700 of new machine
The owners analysis is flawed, because the book value of the old Pizza oven is a sunk cost. It should not enter in equipment replacement decision.

55 Flame Company manufactures gas grills and is considering expanding production. A distributor has asked the company to produce a special order of 8,000 grills to be sold overseas. The grills would be sold under a different brand name and would not influence Falmes Companys current sales. The plant is currently producing 95,000 units per year. The companys maximum capacity is 100,000 units per year, so the company would have to reduce the production of units sold under its own brand name by 3,000 units if the special order is accepted. The companys income statement for the previous year is presented below:
Sales ( 95,000 units) Cost of goods sold: Direct material Direct labor Manufacturing overhead Gross Profit Selling expenses Administrative expenses Net Income 575,000 237,500 $2,375,0 00 1,900,00 0 1,425,00 0
$7,125,0 00
The companys variable manufacturing overhead is $10 per unit and the variable selling expense is $5 per unit. The administrative expense is completely fixed and would increase by $5,000 if the special order is accepted. There would be no variable selling expense associated with the special order, and variable manufacturing overhead per unit would remain constant.
The companys direct labor cost per unit for the special order would increase 20% while direct material cost per unit for the special order would increase 10%.. Fixed manufacturing overhead and fixed selling expense would not change.
