Hickory Company manufactures two products—13,000 units of Product Y and 5,000 units of Product Z. The company uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. It is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates all $630,000 of its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products Y and Z:

The Geneva Company manufactures the famous Ticktock watch on an assembly-line basis. January 1 work-in-process consisted of 5,000 units partially completed. During the month, an additional 110,000 units were started, and 105,000 units were completed. The ending work-in-process was 60% complete as to conversion costs. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process. The following conversion costs were incurred: Beginning costs for work-in-process $1,500 Total current conversion costs $273,920 The conversion costs assigned to ending work-in-process totaled $15,360 using the FIFO method of process costing.

Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Washington County’s Board of Representatives is considering the construction of a longer runway at the county airport. Currently, the airport can handle only private aircraft and small commuter jets. A new, long runway would enable the airport to handle the midsize jets used on many domestic flights. Data pertinent to the board’s decision appear below. Cost of acquiring additional land for runway $ 82,500 Cost of runway construction 280,000 Cost of extending perimeter fence 19,908 Cost of runway lights 45,000 Annual cost of maintaining new runway 22,500 Annual incremental revenue from landing fees 57,500 In addition to the preceding data, two other facts are relevant to the decision. First, a longer runway will require a new snowplow, which will cost $180,000. The old snowplow could be sold now for $18,000. The new, larger plow will cost $16,000 more in annual operating costs. Second, the County Board of Representatives believes that the proposed long runway, and the major jet service it will bring to the county, will increase economic activity in the community. The board projects that the increased economic activity will result in $94,000 per year in additional tax revenue for the county. In analyzing the runway proposal, the board has decided to use a 10-year time horizon. The county’s hurdle rate for capital projects is 18 percent. Use Appendix A for your reference. (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) In analyzing the runway proposal, the board has decided to use a 10-year time horizon. The county’s hurdle rate for capital projects is 18 percent. The County Board of Representatives believes that if the county conducts a promotional effort costing $28,000 per year, the proposed long runway will result in substantially greater economic development than was projected originally. However, the board is uncertain about the actual increase in county tax revenue that will result. Required: Suppose the board builds the long runway and conducts the promotional campaign. What would the increase in the county’s annual tax revenue need to be in order for the proposed runway’s internal rate of return to equal the county’s hurdle rate of 18 percent? (Round intermediate and final answer to the nearest dollar amount.)
