Gent Designs requires three units of part A for every unit of Al that it produces. Currently, part A is made by Gent, with these per-unit costs in a month when 4.000 units were produced: Variable manufacturing overhead is applied at $1.00 per unit. The other $0.30 of overhead consists of allocated fixed costs. Gent will need 6,000 units of part A for the next years production. Cory Corporation has offered to supply 6,000 units of part A at a price of $7.00 per unit. It Gent accepts the offer, all of the variable costs and $1,200 of the fixed costs will be avoided. Should Gent Designs accept the offer from Cory Corporation?
Bobcat uses a traditional cost system and estimates next years overhead will be $800.000, as driven by the estimated 25,000 direct labor hours. It manufactures three products and estimates the following costs: If the labor rate is $30 per hour, what is the per-unit cost of each product?
Colonels uses a traditional cost system and estimates next years overhead will be $480,000, with the estimated cost driver of 240,000 direct labor hours. It manufactures three products and estimates these costs: If the labor rate is $25 per hour, what is the per-unit cost of each product?
Box Springs, Inc., makes two sizes of box springs: twin and double. The direct material for the twin is $25 per unit and $40 s used in direct labor, while the direct material for the double is $40 per unit, and the labor cost is $50 per unit. Box Springs estimates it will make 5,000 twins and 9,000 doubles in the next year. It estimates the overhead for each cost pool and cost driver activities as follows: How much does each unit cost to manufacture?
Taylor Company produces two industrial cleansers that use the same liquid chemical input: Pocolimpio and Maslimpio. Pocolimpio uses two quarts of the chemical for every unit produced, and Maslimpio uses five quarts. Currently, Taylor has 6,000 quarts of the material in inventory. All of the material is imported. For the coming year, Taylor plans to import 6,000 quarts to produce 1,000 units of Pocolimpio and 2,000 units of Maslimpio. The detail of each products unit contribution margin is as follows: Taylor Company has received word that the source of the material has been shut down by embargo. Consequently, the company will not be able to import the 6,000 quarts it planned to use in the coming years production. There is no other source of the material. Required: 1. Compute the total contribution margin that the company would earn if it could import the 6,000 quarts of the material. 2. Determine the optimal usage of the companys inventory of 6,000 quarts of the material. Compute the total contribution margin for the product mix that you recommend. 3. Assume that Pocolimpio uses three direct labor hours for every unit produced and that Maslimpio uses two hours. A total of 6,000 direct labor hours is available for the coming year. a. Formulate the linear programming problem faced by Taylor Company. To do so, you must derive mathematical expressions for the objective function and for the materials and labor constraints. b. Solve the linear programming problem using the graphical approach. c. Compute the total contribution margin produced by the optimal mix.
Vollmer Manufacturing makes three components for sale to refrigeration companies. The components are processed on two machines: a shaper and a grinder. The times (in minutes) required on each machine are as follows: The shaper is available for 120 hours, and the grinder for 110 hours. No more than 200 units of component 3 can be sold, but up to 1,000 units of each of the other components can be sold. In fact, the company already has orders for 600 units of component 1 that must be satisfied. The profit contributions for components 1, 2, and 3 are 8, 6, and 9, respectively. a. Formulate and solve for the recommended production quantities. b. What are the objective coefficient ranges for the three components? Interpret these ranges for company management. c. What are the right-hand-side ranges? Interpret these ranges for company management. d. If more time could be made available on the grinder, how much would it be worth? e. If more units of component 3 can be sold by reducing the sales price by 4, should the company reduce the price?
Noland Company manufactures two models of its banjo, the Basic and the Luxury. The Basic model requires 10000 direct labor hours. and the Luxury requires 30000 direct labor hours. The company produces 3400 units of the Basic model and 600 units of the Luxury model each year. The company inspects one Basic for every 100 produced, and inspects one Luxury for every 10 produced. The company expects to incur $658000 of total inspecting costs this year. How much of the inspecting costs should be allocated to the Basic model using ABC costing? O $329000 O $238000 O $559300 O $164500
Garcia Co. sells snowboards. Each snowboard requires direct materials of $105, direct labor of $35, and variable overhead of $50. The company expects fixed overhead costs of $645,000 and fixed selling and administrative costs of $111,000 for the next year. It expects to produce and sell 10,500 snowboards in the next year. What will be the selling price per unit if Garcia uses a markup of 15% of total cost? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Selling Price _____________ Per Unit
Bordome Company produces component A1 for use in one of its electronic gadgets. Normal annual production for the item is 100,000 units. The cost for a 100-unit batch of the part are: Direct materials, P520; Direct labor, P200; Variable overhead, P240; Fixed overhead, P320. Isell Inc. has offered to sell all 100,000 units it will need during the coming year for P1,200 per 100 units. If Boredom accepts the offer, the facilities used to manufacture A1 could be used in the production of component B2. This change would save Boredome P180,000 in relevant costs. In addition, a P200,000 cost item included in fixed overhead is specifically related to A1 and would be eliminated. What is the net advantage of choosing the better alternative? Indicate the better alternative in CAPITAL LETTERS and amount, ex: MAKE 123456 or BUY 123456.
