The expected inventory level of 5,250 units on December 31, 2017, is more than management’s desired level, which is 20% of the next month’s expected sales (in units). Expected sales are: January, 7,250 units; February, 8,750 units; March, 11,500 units; and April, 11,000 units. Cash sales and credit sales represent 20% and 80%, respectively, of total sales. Of the credit sales, 65% is collected in the first month after the month of sale and 35% in the second month after the month of sale. For the December 31, 2017, accounts receivable balance, $125,000 is collected in January and the remaining $395,000 is collected in February. Merchandise purchases are paid for as follows: 20% in the first month after the month of purchase and 80% in the second month after the month of purchase. For the December 31, 2017, accounts payable balance, $70,000 is paid in January and the remaining $275,000 is paid in February. Sales commissions equal to 20% of sales are paid each month.

Equipment reported in the December 31, 2017, balance sheet was purchased in January 2017. It is being depreciated over eight years under the straight-line method with no salvage value. The following amounts for new equipment purchases are planned in the coming quarter: January, $38,400; February, $100,800; and March, $28,800. This equipment will be depreciated under the straight-line method over eight years with no salvage value. A full month’s depreciation is taken for the month in which equipment is purchased. The company plans to buy land at the end of March at a cost of $145,000, which will be paid with cash on the last day of the month. The company has a working arrangement with its bank to obtain additional loans as needed. The interest rate is 12% per year, and interest is paid at each month-end based on the beginning balance. Partial or full payments on these loans can be made on the last day of the month. The company has agreed to maintain a minimum ending cash balance of $16,000 at the end of each month. The income tax rate for the company is 35%. Income taxes on the first quarter’s income will not be paid until April 15.

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:

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?
