Small Group Discussion (Class will be divided into Groups of up to 5 students)

We have made the point that managers often attempt to maximize the contribution margin per unit of a particular resource that limits output capacity. The following are five familiar types of businesses:

1. Small medical or dental practice
2. Restaurants
3. Supermarket.
4. Builder of residential housing.
5. Auto dealer’s service department.

Instructions:

Within a group of students:

• Each student will be assigned one of the five familiar types of businesses

(MUST POST FIRST) Initial Post – As an employee, write an internal memo to your manager addressing the following:

• For each type of business, identify the factor that you believe is most likely to limit potential output capacity.
• Suggest several ways (other than raising prices) the business can maximize the contribution margin per unit of this limiting resource. (Hint: These businesses often do implement the types of strategies you are likely to suggest. Thus, your solution to this case may explain basic characteristics of businesses that you personally have observed.)

For your response post, you will be taking on the role of the manager and respond to your employee’s and another manager’s memo. For the employee memo, Inform the employee as to what specific managerial decisions, conclusions, and/or judgments can you make from the information provided in that memo. For the manager response, provide an alternative conclusion based on the information provided.

K&K Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently established a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy:

Direct materials: 7 microns per toy at $0.32 per micron

Direct labor: 1.5 hours per toy at $6.80 per hour

During July, the company produced 5,300 Maze toys. The toy's production data for the month are as follows:

Direct materials: 79,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $0.30 per micron. 32,625 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month.

Direct labor: 8,450 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $61,685.

Required:

1. Compute the following variances for July: (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

a. The materials price and quantity variances.

b. The labor rate and efficiency variances.

k&k Parts, Inc., manufactures auto accessories. One of the company’s products is a set of seat covers that can be adjusted to fit nearly any small car. The company has a standard cost system in use for all of its products. According to the standards that have been set for the seat covers, the factory should work 1,075 hours each month to produce 2,150 sets of covers. The standard costs associated with this level of production are:

During August, the factory worked only 800 direct labor-hours and produced 2,500 sets of covers. The following actual costs were recorded during the month:

At standard, each set of covers should require 3.0 yards of material. All of the materials purchased during the month were used in production.

Required:

1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for August.

2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for August.

3. Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for August.

(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Olympus, Inc., manufactures three models of mattresses: the Sleepeze, the Plushette, and the Ultima. Forecast sales for next year are 15,250 for the Sleepeze, 12,700 for the Plushette, and 4,580 for the Ultima. Gene Dixon, vice president of sales, has provided the following information:

Salaries for his office (including himself at $66,500, a marketing research assistant at $35,850, and an administrative assistant at $23,550) are budgeted for $125,900 next year.

Depreciation on the offices and equipment is $19,000 per year.

Office supplies and other expenses total $22,750 per year.

Advertising has been steady at $20,600 per year. However, the Ultima is a new product and will require extensive advertising to educate consumers on the unique features of this high-end mattress. Gene believes the company should spend 15 percent of first-year Ultima sales for a print and television campaign.

Commissions on the Sleepeze and Plushette lines are 3 percent of sales. These commissions are paid to independent jobbers who sell the mattresses to retail stores.

Last year, shipping for the Sleepeze and Plushette lines averaged $45 per unit sold. Gene expects the Ultima line to ship for $70 per unit sold since this model features a larger mattress.

Suppose that Gene is considering three sales scenarios as follows: Pessimistic Expected Optimistic Price Quantity Price Quantity Price Quantity Sleepeze $186 12,640 $206 15,250 $206 17,540 Plushette 291 10,020 333 12,700 343 13,850 Ultima 850 2,230 920 4,580 1,120 4,580

Suppose Gene determines that next year's Sales Division activities include the following: Research—researching current and future conditions in the industry

Shipping—arranging for shipping of mattresses and handling calls from purchasing agents at retail stores to trace shipments and correct errors

Jobbers—coordinating the efforts of the independent jobbers who sell the mattresses

Basic ads—placing print and television ads for the Sleepeze and Plushette lines

Ultima ads—choosing and working with the advertising agency on the Ultima account

Office management—operating the Sales Division office

The percentage of time spent by each employee of the Sales Division on each of the above activities is given in the following table: Gene Research Assistant Administrative Assistant Research - 70 % - Shipping 30 % - 20 % Jobbers 15 15 20 Basic ads - 15 35 Ultima ads 25 - 10 Office management 30 - 15

Additional information is as follows: Depreciation on the office equipment belongs to the office management activity.

Of the $22,750 for office supplies and other expenses, $5,400 can be assigned to telephone costs which can be split evenly between the shipping and jobbers' activities. An additional $2,300 per year is attributable to Internet connections and fees, and the bulk of these costs (75 percent) are assignable to research. The remainder is a cost of office management. All other office supplies and costs are assigned to the office management activity.

Required:

1. Prepare an activity-based budget for next year by activity. Use the expected level of sales activity. If required, round answers to the nearest dollar.

Munoz Glass Company makes stained glass lamps. Each lamp that it sells for $316.50 per lamp requires $16.80 of direct materials and $71.40 of direct labor.
