Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $76 per unit in two geographic regions—the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company’s first year of operations in which it produced 47,000 units and sold 42,000 units.

The company sold 32,000 units in the East region and 10,000 units in the West region. It determined that $210,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expense is traceable to the West region, $160,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $105,000 is a common fixed expense. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product.

1. What is the company’s total gross margin under absorption costing? What is the amount of the difference between the variable costing and absorption costing net operating incomes (losses)?

2. If the sales volumes in the East and West regions had been reversed, what would be the company’s overall break-even point in unit sales? What would have been the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 42,000 units? You do not need to perform any calculations to answer this question.

3.  Prepare a contribution format segmented income statement that includes a Total column and columns for the East and West regions.

4. Assume the West region invests $37,000 in a new advertising campaign in Year 2 that increases its unit sales by 20%. If all else remains constant, what would be the profit impact of pursuing the advertising campaign?

Managers at Wager Fabricating Company are reviewing the economic feasibility of manufacturing a part that the currently purchases from a supplier. Forecasted annual demand for the part is 3200 units. Wagner operates 250 days per year.

Wagner's financial analysts have established a cost of capital of 14% for the use of funds for investments within the company. In addition, over the past year $600,000 was the average investment in the company's inventory. Accounting information shows that a total of $24,000 was spent on taxes and insurance related to the company's inventory. In addition, an estimated $9000 was lost due to inventory shrinkage, which included damaged goods as well as pilferage. A remaining $15,000 was spent on warehouse overhead, including utility expenses for heating and lighting.

An analysis of the purchasing operation shows that approximately two hours are required to process and coordinate an order for the part regardless of the quantity ordered. Purchasing salaries average $28 per hour, including employee benefits. In addition, a detailed analysis of 125 orders showed that $2375 was spent on telephone, paper, and postage directly related to the ordering process.

A one-week lead time is required to obtain the part from the supplier. An analysis of demand during the lead time shows it is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 64 units and a standard deviation of 10 units. Service-level guidelines indicate that one stock-out per year is acceptable.

Currently, the company has a contract to purchase the part from a supplier at a cost of $18 per unit. However, over the past few months, the company's production capacity has been expanded. As a result, excess capacity is now available in certain production departments, and the company is considering the alternative of producing the parts itself.

Forecasted utilization of equipment shows that production capacity will be available for the part being considered. The production capacity is available at the rate of 1000 units per month, with up to five months of production time available. Management believes that with a two-week lead time, schedules can be arranged so that the part can be produced whenever needed. The demand during the two-week lead time is approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 128 units and a standard deviation of 20 units. Product costs are expected to be $17 per part.

A concern of management is that setup costs will be substantial. The total cost of labor and lost production time is estimated to be $50 per hour, and a full eight-hour shift will be needed to set up the equipment for producing the part.

Managerial Report

Develop a report for management of Wagner Fabricating that will address the question of whether the company should continue to purchase the part from the supplier or begin to produce the part itself. Include the following factors in your report:

The management of Quest Media Inc. is considering two capital investment projects. The estimated net cash flows from each project are as follows:

The radio station requires an investment of $827,950, while the TV station requires an investment of $1,852,570. No residual value is expected from either project.

Required:

1a. Compute the net present value for each project. Use a rate of 10% and the present value of an annuity of $1 in the table above. If required, use the minus sign to indicate a negative net present value. If required, round to the nearest whole dollar.

1b. Compute a present value index for each project. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

2. Determine the internal rate of return for each project by (a) computing a present value factor for an annuity of $1 and (b) using the present value of an annuity of $1 in the table above. If required, round your present value factor answers to three decimal places and internal rate of return to the nearest whole percent.

3. The net present value, present value index, and internal rate of return all indicate that the (radio station / TV station) is a better financial opportunity compared to the (radio station / TV station), although both investments meet the minimum return criterion of 10%.

Continental Railroad Company is evaluating three capital investment proposals by using the net present value method. Relevant data related to the proposals are summarized as follows:

Required:

1. Assuming that the desired rate of return is 12%, prepare a net present value analysis for each proposal. Use the present value of $1 table above. If required, use the minus sign to indicate a negative net present value. If required, round to the nearest dollar.

2. Determine a present value index for each proposal. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

3. The (maintenance equipment / ramp facilities / computer network) has the largest present value index. Although (maintenance equipment / ramp facilities / computer network) has the largest net present value, it returns less present value per dollar invested than does the (maintenance equipment / ramp facilities / computer network), as revealed by the present value indexes. The present value index for the (maintenance equipment / ramp facilities / computer network) is less than 1, indicating that it does not meet the minimum rate of return standard.
