Gallatin Carpet Cleaning is a small, family-owned business operating out of Bozeman, Montana. For its services, the company has always charged a flat fee per hundred square feet of carpet cleaned. The current fee is $22.95 per hundred square feet. However, there is some question about whether the company is actually making any money on jobs for some customers—particularly those located on remote ranches that require considerable travel time. The owner’s daughter, home for the summer from college, has suggested investigating this question using activity-based costing. After some discussion, she designed a simple system consisting of four activity cost pools. The activity cost pools and their activity measures appear below:

Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Activity for the Year
Cleaning carpets Square feet cleaned (00s) 7,000 hundred square feet
Travel to jobs Miles driven 202,500 miles
Job support Number of jobs 1,800 jobs
Other (organization-sustaining costs and idle capacity costs) None Not applicable

The total cost of operating the company for the year is $347,000 which includes the following costs:

Wages $ 143,000
Cleaning supplies 21,000
Cleaning equipment depreciation 12,000
Vehicle expenses 29,000
Office expenses 57,000
President’s compensation 85,000
Total cost $ 347,000

Resource consumption is distributed across the activities as follows:

Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activities
Cleaning Carpets Travel to Jobs Job Support Other Total
Wages 77 % 13 % 0 % 10 % 100 %
Cleaning supplies 100 % 0 % 0 % 0 % 100 %
Cleaning equipment depreciation 72 % 0 % 0 % 28 % 100 %
Vehicle expenses 0 % 77 % 0 % 23 % 100 %
Office expenses 0 % 0 % 56 % 44 % 100 %
President’s compensation 0 % 0 % 32 % 68 % 100 %

Job support consists of receiving calls from potential customers at the home office, scheduling jobs, billing, resolving issues, and so on.

Required:

1. Prepare the first-stage allocation of costs to the activity cost pools.

2. Compute the activity rates for the activity cost pools.

3. The company recently completed a 200 square foot carpet-cleaning job at the Flying N Ranch—a 51-mile round-trip journey from the company’s offices in Bozeman. Compute the cost of this job using the activity-based costing system.

4. The revenue from the Flying N Ranch was $45.90 (200 square feet @ $22.95 per hundred square feet). Calculate the customer margin earned on this job.

Company is replacing existing equipment with new equipment which can replicate what the existing machine does and also support a new product line.

Old equipment was purchased 3 years ago for 100,000 and was being depreciated using a MACRS 5 year asset class depreciation schedule. It was expected to have a 15,000 salvage value at the end of year 5 when it was planned to be sold. The company is considering replacing it now with a new machine. The old machine can be sold today for 35,000.

New machine will cost 180,000 and is expected to have an economic life of 8 years but is expected to use the MACRS 5 year asset class depreciation schedule for tax purposes. It is expected to have a salvage value of 12% of the original equipment costs at the end of 8 years. The remaining operational years beyond the depreciation tax schedule will not have any depreciation expense but will continue to have operational impact.

The new machine will require an increase in working capital of 10,000 in the first year of the project and will be fully recovered at the end of the project.

The new equipment is expected to increase revenue by 40,000 per year and reduce costs by 5,000 per year before tax impact and consideration of depreciation impact of the new machine.

Cost of Capital is 10% and Tax Rate is 40%.

A: Base Case scenario

  • Calculate the project’s NPV
  • What is your recommendation?

B: Alternate Analysis Scenarios

  • What if revenue impact was only 50% of projections for the first 4 years what would be the impact on NPV?
  • What if cost reduction assumptions were not realized and no operational costs savings were achieved? What would the impact on NPV be?

You are the Accountant for Duke Street, Inc. and your boss asks you to provide the bank with a profit forecast for the coming year. Sales and profitability have both been trending downward over the last five years. Technological advancements have made the current product less attractive. Duke has developed a new product consistent with their perceptions of consumer behavior. The company is requesting a loan from the bank to launch the new product; the loan is very necessary. The forecast that you provide to the bank will determine whether or not the bank issues the much needed loan.

Your boss is convinced that profits will be at least $500,000 – anything less than $500,000 and the bank will not approve the loan. Your analysis indicates three possible outcomes:

Outcome 1: If sales of the new product are extraordinary, then profits will exceed $500,000.

Outcome 2: If sales of the new product are modest, then the profits will be $100,000. This is most likely to occur.

Outcome 3: If the sales of the new product fail, then the company will experience a loss of $600,000

If the bank does not grant the loan, then the new product will not launch and bankruptcy is a real possibility for the company.

REQUIRED:

Include at least two sources, appropriately cited and referenced.

NOTE: The following questions are not in any particular order. ORGANIZE your discussion in a logical manner.

Discuss the ethical implications and demonstrate your decision-making processes for the above scenario. Below are questions that may help guide your discussion. The questions are a guide (a sentence or two answering each question is insufficient). You should provide a well-organized thoughtful discussion of the ethical situation and the business/organizational problem that the company faces.   

What ethical dilemma does the accountant face?

What business problem(s) does the company have?

Who are the potential stakeholders and how might they be affected by the decision of the accountant?

What choices does the accountant have? Evaluate the choices, i.e. who benefits or who is hurt by the choice(s).

What action would you recommend, i.e. how do you believe the business problem should be resolved? How should the ethical dilemma be resolved?

Going forward, what should the company do regarding organizational ethics?
