Gitano Products operates a job-order costing system and applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct materials used in production (not on the basis of raw materials purchased). Its predetermined overhead rate was based on a cost formula that estimated $127,400 of manufacturing overhead for an estimated allocation base of $91,000 direct material dollars to be used in production. The company has provided the following data for the just completed year:
| Purchase of raw materials | $ | 140,000 |
| Direct labor cost | $ | 87,000 |
| Manufacturing overhead costs: | ||
| Indirect labor | $ | 132,400 |
| Property taxes | $ | 8,200 |
| Depreciation of equipment | $ | 17,000 |
| Maintenance | $ | 13,000 |

| Work in Process | $ | 48,000 | $ | 37,000 |
| Finished Goods | $ | 69,000 | $ | 61,000 |
Required:
1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for the year.
2. Compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.
3. Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year. Assume all raw materials are used in production as direct materials.
4. Compute the unadjusted cost of goods sold for the year. Do not include any underapplied or overapplied overhead in your answer.
5. Assume that the $37,000 ending balance in Work in Process includes $8,000 of direct materials. Given this assumption, supply the information missing below:

1. Hockley Brewing has produced a new craft lager beer that will be branded Hockley Classic Lager. The market for craft beer is about $20 million retail per year and the average retail price across all craft beer producers is $2.50. The following information applies to Hockley’s new craft lager beer.
Factory production costs $1.05 / can
Beer ingredients $0.35 / can
Packaging $0.20 / can
Advertising and promotion $60,000
Channel listing fees $30,000
Hockley’s wholesale price to retailers $2.40 / can
(Hockley’s) manufacturer’s suggested retail price $2.55 / can
a. What is Hockley’s unit contribution (measured in $ per can) and contribution margin (measured in percentage)?
b. What is the break-even point in cans? in dollars?
c. What is the necessary sales volume in cans to achieve a $150,000 (target) profit?
d. What will Hockley’s net profit be if 100,000 cans of the new lager are sold?
e. What will Hockley’s market share of craft beer be if they sell 100,000 cans? [Hint: to calculate the total number of cans sold in the market, use the total retail value of the market and industry average retail price given above.]
f. Their largest competitor is Mill Street Brewery whose Original Organic Lager has 2.5% market share of the craft beer market. Given Hockley’s market share calculated in part (e), what will Hockley’s relative market share (RMS) be for their Classic Lager?
g. The craft beer market is growing at 10% annually, higher than any other type of beer. With the RMS for Hockley Classic Lager calculated in part (f), at the end of their first year, where in Hockley’s portfolio will Classic Lager be positioned and what recommendation would follow?
h. Calculate the price elasticity of demand if they raise the MSRP from $2.55 to $2.75 and demand falls from 100,000 cans to 95,000 cans. Is demand for this product price elastic or inelastic?

Based on the following:
Your colleague from Sales is convinced that this capability would allow new revenue stream that could significantly offset operating expenses. He recommends savings that grow each year: 5-year project life, 10% discount rate, and a 10% compounded annual savings growth in years 2 through 5. In other words, instead of assuming savings stay flat, assume that they will grow by 10% in year 2, and then grow another 10% over year 2 in year 3, and so on.
