Glad Bags produces restaurant storage containers. The company makes two sizes of containers: regular (55 gallon) and large (100 gallon). The company uses the same machinery to produce both sizes. The machinery can be run for only 2,500 hours per period. Glad can produce 20 regular containers every hour, whereas it can produce 8 large containers in the same amount of time. Fixed costs amount to $1,000,000 per period. Sales prices and variable costs are as follows:

Total investment $12,500,000
Required rate of return 10%
Consider each of the following INDEPENDENT scenarios:
1) To maximize profits, how many of each size container should Glad produce? Prepare an income statement with this level of sales.
2) Assume the company makes only the regular product. Glad is a price taker. The market price for the regular container recently dropped to $100 per container as there is a new low-cost online market entrant. Glad needs to earn the necessary income to satisfy its financial stakeholders. How much does Glad need to reduce costs to satisfy its required rate of return?
3) Glad Products is deciding whether to outsource the production of a type of glue that is included in its containers. It currently costs Glad $.90 to make each bottle of glue in-house. If Glad Products outsources, it can buy the glue ready-made for $1.20 each and can shut down the production facilities it is currently using to manufacture the glue and save $10,000 a year in fixed costs. Glad currently allocates $50,000 in fixed costs to the glue. Annual requirement for the glue is 12,000 units. What is the effect of outsourcing?

Companion Computer Company has been purchasing carrying cases for its portable computers at a delivered cost of $68 per unit. The company, which is currently operating below full capacity, charges factory overhead to production at the rate of 40% of direct labor cost . The fully absorbed (absorption-cost based, not variable or ABC) unit costs to produce comparable carrying cases are expected to be as follows:
Direct Materials | $25.00 |
Direct Labor | 32.00 |
Factory overhead (40% of direct labor) | 12.80 |
Total cost per unit | $69.80 |
If Companion Computer Company manufactures the carrying cases,
fixed factory overhead costs will not increase and variable factory
overhead costs associated with the cases are expected to be 15% of
the direct labor costs.
Prepare a differential analysis report for the make or buy
(outsource) decision. Would you advise making or buying the
carrying cases? Include qualitative reasons as well as the
calculations. Explain.

You have just been hired as a new management trainee by Earrings Unlimited, a distributor of earrings to various retail outlets located in shopping malls across the country. In the past, the company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash. Since you are well trained in budgeting, you have decided to prepare a master budget for the upcoming second quarter. To this end, you have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below.
The company sells many styles of earrings, but all are sold for the same price—$16 per pair. Actual sales of earrings for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow (in pairs of earrings):
January (actual) | 21,200 | June (budget) | 51,200 |
February (actual) | 27,200 | July (budget) | 31,200 |
March (actual) | 41,200 | August (budget) | 29,200 |
April (budget) | 66,200 | September (budget) | 26,200 |
May (budget) | 101,200 | ||
The concentration of sales before and during May is due to Mother’s Day. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the earrings sold in the following month.
Suppliers are paid $4.60 for a pair of earrings. One-half of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit. Only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible.
Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below:
Variable: | |||
Sales commissions | 4 | % of sales | |
Fixed: | |||
Advertising | $ | 260,000 | |
Rent | $ | 24,000 | |
Salaries | $ | 118,000 | |
Utilities | $ | 10,000 | |
Insurance | $ | 3,600 | |
Depreciation | $ | 20,000 | |
Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in November of each year.
The company plans to purchase $19,000 in new equipment during May and $46,000 in new equipment during June; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $19,500 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.
The company’s balance sheet as of March 31 is given below:
Assets | ||
Cash | $ | 80,000 |
Accounts receivable ($43,520 February sales; $527,360 March sales) | 570,880 | |

The company maintains a minimum cash balance of $56,000. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month.
The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company would pay the bank all of the accumulated interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible (in increments of $1,000), while still retaining at least $56,000 in cash.
Required:
Prepare a master budget for the three-month period ending June 30. Include the following detailed schedules:
1. a. A sales budget, by month and in total.
b. A schedule of expected cash collections, by month and in total.
c. A merchandise purchases budget in units and in dollars. Show the budget by month and in total.
d. A schedule of expected cash disbursements for merchandise purchases, by month and in total.
2. A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. Determine any borrowing that would be needed to maintain the minimum cash balance of $56,000.
3. A budgeted income statement for the three-month period ending June 30. Use the contribution approach.
4. A budgeted balance sheet as of June 30.
