“In my opinion, we ought to stop making our own drums and accept that outside supplier’s...

“In my opinion, we ought to stop making our own drums and accept that outside supplier’s offer,” said Wim Niewindt, managing director of Antilles Refining, N.V., of Aruba. “At a price of $20 per drum, we would be paying $4.25 less than it costs us to manufacture the drums in our own plant. Since we use 75,000 drums a year, that would be an annual cost savings of $318,750.” Antilles Refining’s current cost to manufacture one drum is given below (based on 75,000 drums per year): Direct materials $ 11.10 Direct labor 6.00 Variable overhead 1.60 Fixed overhead ($2.80 general company overhead, $1.75 depreciation, and, $1.00 supervision) 5.55 Total cost per drum $ 24.25 A decision about whether to make or buy the drums is especially important at this time because the equipment being used to make the drums is completely worn out and must be replaced. The choices facing the company are: Alternative 1: Rent new equipment and continue to make the drums. The equipment would be rented for $225,000 per year. Alternative 2: Purchase the drums from an outside supplier at $20 per drum. The new equipment would be more efficient than the equipment that Antilles Refining has been using and, according to the manufacturer, would reduce direct labor and variable overhead costs by 25%. The old equipment has no resale value. Supervision cost ($75,000 per year) and direct materials cost per drum would not be affected by the new equipment. The new equipment’s capacity would be 125,000 drums per year. The company’s total general company overhead would be unaffected by this decision. (Round all intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) Required: 1. To assist the managing director in making a decision, prepare an analysis showing the total cost and the cost per drum for each of the two alternatives given above. Assume that 75,000 drums are needed each year. a. What will be the total relevant cost of 75,000 drums if they are manufactured internally as compared to being purchased? b. What would be the per unit cost of each drum manufactured internally? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) c. Which course of action would you recommend to the managing director? Purchase from the outside supplier Manufacture internally Indifferent between the two alternatives 2a-1. What will be the total relevant cost of 93,750 drums if they are manufactured internally? 2a-2. What would be the per unit cost of drums? 2 a-3. What course of action would you recommend if 93,750 drums are needed each year? Indifferent between the two alternatives Manufacture internally Purchase from the outside supplier 2b-1. What will be the total relevant cost of 125,000 drums if they are manufactured internally? 2b-2. What would be the per unit cost of drums? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) 2b-3.

Polaski Company manufactures and sells a single product called a Ret. Operating at capacity, the company can produce and sell 44,000 Rets per year. Costs associated with this level of production and sales are given below: Unit Total Direct materials $ 15 $ 660,000 Direct labor 6 264,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 3 132,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead 9 396,000 Variable selling expense 2 88,000 Fixed selling expense 6 264,000 Total cost $ 41 $ 1,804,000 The Rets normally sell for $46 each. Fixed manufacturing overhead is constant at $396,000 per year within the range of 37,000 through 44,000 Rets per year. Required: 1. Assume that due to a recession, Polaski Company expects to sell only 37,000 Rets through regular channels next year. A large retail chain has offered to purchase 7,000 Rets if Polaski is willing to accept a 16% discount off the regular price. There would be no sales commissions on this order; thus, variable selling expenses would be slashed by 75%. However, Polaski Company would have to purchase a special machine to engrave the retail chain’s name on the 7,000 units. This machine would cost $14,000. Polaski Company has no assurance that the retail chain will purchase additional units in the future. Determine the impact on profits next year if this special order is accepted. 2. Refer to the original data. Assume again that Polaski Company expects to sell only 37,000 Rets through regular channels next year. The U.S. Army would like to make a one-time-only purchase of 7,000 Rets. The Army would pay a fixed fee of $2.00 per Ret, and it would reimburse Polaski Company for all costs of production (variable and fixed) associated with the units. Because the army would pick up the Rets with its own trucks, there would be no variable selling expenses associated with this order. If Polaski Company accepts the order, by how much will profits increase or decrease for the year? 3. Assume the same situation as that described in (2) above, except that the company expects to sell 44,000 Rets through regular channels next year. Thus, accepting the U.S. Army’s order would require giving up regular sales of 7,000 Rets. If the Army’s order is accepted, by how much will profits increase or decrease from what they would be if the 7,000 Rets were sold through regular channels?

Profits have been decreasing for several years at Pegasus Airlines. In an effort to improve the company’s performance, consideration is being given to dropping several flights that appear to be unprofitable. A typical income statement for one round-trip of one such flight (flight 482) is as follows: Ticket revenue (105 seats × 40% occupancy × $65 ticket price) $ 2,730 100.0 % Variable expenses ($15.00 per person) 630 23.1 % (rounded) Contribution margin 2,100 76.9 % (rounded) Flight expenses: Salaries, flight crew $ 300 Flight promotion 660 Depreciation of aircraft 370 Fuel for aircraft 165 Liability insurance 150 Salaries, flight assistants 720 Baggage loading and flight preparation 175 Overnight costs for flight crew and assistants at destination 70 Total flight expenses 2,610 Net operating loss $ (510) The following additional information is available about flight 482: a. Members of the flight crew are paid fixed annual salaries, whereas the flight assistants are paid based on the number of round trips they complete. b. One-third of the liability insurance is a special charge assessed against flight 482 because in the opinion of the insurance company, the destination of the flight is in a "high-risk" area. The remaining two-thirds would be unaffected by a decision to drop flight 482. c. The baggage loading and flight preparation expense is an allocation of ground crews' salaries and depreciation of ground equipment. Dropping flight 482 would have no effect on the company's total baggage loading and flight preparation expenses. d. If flight 482 is dropped, Pegasus Airlines has no authorization at present to replace it with another flight. e. Aircraft depreciation is due entirely to obsolescence. Depreciation due to wear and tear is negligible. f. Dropping flight 482 would not allow Pegasus Airlines to reduce the number of aircraft in its fleet or the number of flight crew on its payroll. Required: 1. Prepare an analysis showing what impact dropping flight 482 would have on the airline's profits. (Any losses/ reductions should be indicated by a minus sign.)

You are a staff accountant at a higher education institution, Philly College of Business (“the College” or PCB). The lease on the current multifunction copiers the College uses is almost up. The college has decided to replace the current copiers with Canon imageRunner AdvanceC55501 copiers. The following is the information you have been able to gather so far related to renting the copiers. The IT department was able to negotiate the following lease terms to rent the 15 copiers needed.

• The lease is non-cancelable

• 5-year lease term (estimated economic life is also 5-years)

• The local Canon dealer is responsible for all repairs and maintenance on the copiers during the lease term.

• The base rent per copier is $146.93/month. There is an additional charge of $0.0068 per page copied or printed per month.

• The IT department estimates that the College will average 10,000 to 20,000 copies per month per copier.

• The current fair market value of the copiers is $9,190 per copier.

• The copiers will be returned to the local Canon dealer when the lease term is over.

• The unguaranteed residual value is estimated to be $900 at the end of the lease.

Question

The CFO has asked you to prepare an analysis including supporting calculations on the impact to the balance sheet and income statement in each of the next 6 years of a second option related to the copiers - leasing the imageRunner AdvanceC55501copiers. In addition, the CFO would like you to compare the two options (purchase copiers with cash on hand and lease copiers). Your analysis for the CFO should be in the form of a 1-2 page memo plus supporting tables. Assume the lease term on the copiers begins October 31, 2018. At a minimum your supporting tables should include the following. You may also want to include some or all of your tables from part 1 of the project.

a. Lease amortization table (if you determine this would be a finance lease)

b. A schedule of the journal entries for each of the next 6 years, 2018 – 2023 related to the lease

c. A table summarizing the balance sheet and income statement impact in each of the six years (for both options)

d. A table calculating and comparing the present value of the net cash flows for each of the options: purchase with cash on hand and lease the copiers.

Assume the incremental borrowing rate is 6.1%
