Smokey and the Bandit produces outdoor activity clothing. The product line consists of pants, jackets, tops, and accessories. Data has been collected related to direct materials and direct labor for the four product lines. Smokey and the Bandit has also collected information on four possible cost drivers (units, batches, machine hours, labor hours). All this information is listed below. Construct a spreadsheet that will allocate overhead for each of these alternative drivers and will calculate the total per unit cost for each product line. Use the VLOOKUP function when constructing the spreadsheet so that you can determine the effect of different cost drivers on the overhead allocated and the resulting cost per unit.   

Total overhead cost to be allocated: $321,560

After constructing your spreadsheet answer the following questions?

1. What is the total cost per unit of each product line when machine hours are used as the cost driver for overhead allocation?
2. How much overhead is allocated to Jackets when direct labor hours are used as the cost driver for overhead allocation?
3. What is the total cost of Tops when direct labor hours are used as the cost driver for overhead allocation?
4. What is the total cost per unit of Accessories when the number of batches is used as the cost driver for overhead allocation?
5. What is the allocation rate when units are used as the cost driver?
6. If you are the manager of the Jackets product line which cost driver would you prefer? Why?
7. Currently the OH cost are being allocated based on DL hours. If the company decides to use units as the cost driver how would you react if you are the Accessories product line manager?

Read Case Study 3 in the Final Project Guidelines and Rubric document, and discuss the current or potential legal and/or regulatory issues apparent in this fact pattern that might impact a public offering. Actively engaging with your peers and instructor will help you complete the remaining critical elements for the full case study, due in Module Seven.

Case Study 3 Both Fred’s family and the business have rebounded from their prior issues. Jane sought counseling for her gambling issues and has worked hard to mend her relationships with the family. Prior to cashing the forged checks from Jane, Don was struck by lightning and experienced a spiritual enlightenment. He willingly returned the checks to Fred and Sally and promptly joined the Peace Corps. Likewise, when the church found out the donated check was a forgery, it was immediately returned. Bob’s wife (also Sally’s best friend) found out about Bob’s online sabotage and promptly remedied the situation. Once Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup was back on track, the company’s growth was exponential. Featured on a widely viewed talk show starring a prominent doctor, online orders and demands from big-box chains nationwide skyrocketed. Fred and Sally have been told that now would be an ideal time to take Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup public. The only distressing issue at hand involves Tammy, a local girl who had been working as a delivery girl for the company. She applied for Jane’s former job as bookkeeper. Fred and Sally hired Ted, an experienced accountant, instead, and Tammy has filed a claim of sex discrimination against the company and Fred personally. Fred and Sally are seeking your advice regarding Tammy and the possibility of taking the company public. Complete a legal analysis of the given facts, including the following elements. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Evaluate three current or potential legal and/or regulatory issues apparent in this fact pattern that might impact a public offering. II. Determine whether Fred's Miracle Cough Syrup is in compliance with government regulations involving public offerings by analyzing relevant laws and using the appropriate legal test and facts given. III. Support your conclusions and provide recommendations to improve compliance and strategies for corporate growth.

How does a tax accountant meet its obligations to both the tax system and his/her client?

SM manufactures small engines that it sells to manufacturers who install them in products such as lawn mowers. The company currently manufactures all the parts used in these engines but is considering a proposal from an external supplier who wishes to supply the starter assemblies used in these engines.

The starter assemblies are currently manufactured in Division 3 of SM. The costs relating to the starter assemblies for the past 12 months were as follows:

Over the past year, Division 3 manufactured 150,000 starter assemblies.

Further analysis of manufacturing overhead revealed the following information:

Of the total manufacturing overhead, only 25% is considered variable. Of the fixed portion, $300,000 is an allocation of general overhead that will remain unchanged for the company as a whole if production of the starter assemblies is discontinued. A further $200,000 of the fixed overhead is avoidable if production of the starter assemblies is discontinued. The balance of the current fixed overhead, $100,000, is the division manager’s salary. If SM discontinues production of the starter assemblies, the manager of Division 3 will be transferred to Division 2 at the same salary. This move will allow the company to save the $80,000 salary that would otherwise be paid to attract an outsider to this position.

Required

1. Good Supply, a reliable supplier, has offered to supply starter-assembly units at $8 per unit. Because this price is less than the current average cost per unit, the vice president of manufacturing is eager to accept this offer. On the basis of financial considerations alone, should SM accept the outside offer assuming that production remains consistent with the past year? Show your calculations.

2. How, if at all, would your response to requirement 1 change if the company could use the vacated plant space for storage and, in so doing, avoid $100,000 of outside storage charges currently incurred? Why is this information relevant or irrelevant?

3. Assume that demand increases and SM requires 190,000 units. On the basis of financial considerations alone, should SM accept the outside offer? Show your calculations.

Required Task:

Part A 1. Choose a country that has adopted IFRSs (i.e. global accounting standards) for at least 3 or more years, as revealed in the accounting literature, and discuss the following:

I. In what year did the country adopt IFRSs?

II. Were the IFRSs introduced all together (at once), or gradually into the local accounting standards of your chosen country? Explain the possible reason.

III. Discuss the benefits and challenges reported in the literature about the adoption of IFRSs in your chosen country.
