Transfer pricing involves setting a price on goods that are transferred between divisions within a single company. Is this practice necessary? What are the advantages? Disadvantages? What’s an appropriate price if it’s going to be done?

Mercury, Inc., produces cell phones at its plant in Texas. In recent years, the company’s market share has been eroded by stiff competition from overseas. Price and product quality are the two key areas in which companies compete in this market.
A year ago, the company’s cell phones had been ranked low in product quality in a consumer survey. Shocked by this result, Jorge Gomez, Mercury’s president, initiated an intense effort to improve product quality. Gomez set up a task force to implement a formal quality improvement program. Included on this task force were representatives from the Engineering, Marketing, Customer Service, Production, and Accounting departments. The broad representation was needed because Gomez believed that this was a companywide program and that all employees should share the responsibility for its success.
After the first meeting of the task force, Holly Elsoe, manager of the Marketing Department, asked John Tran, production manager, what he thought of the proposed program. Tran replied, “I have reservations. Quality is too abstract to be attaching costs to it and then to be holding you and me responsible for cost improvements. I like to work with goals that I can see and count! I’m nervous about having my annual bonus based on a decrease in quality costs; there are too many variables that we have no control over.”
Mercury’s quality improvement program has now been in operation for one year. The company’s most recent quality cost report is shown below.
| Mercury, Inc. | ||||
| Quality Cost Report | ||||
| (in thousands) | ||||
| Last Year | This Year | |||
| Prevention costs: | ||||
| Machine maintenance | $ | 370 | $ | 130 |

| Total prevention cost | 400 | 225 | ||
| Appraisal costs: | ||||
| Incoming inspection | 65 | 20 | ||
| Final testing | 150 | 88 | ||
| Total appraisal cost | 215 | 108 | ||
| Internal failure costs: | ||||
| Rework | 110 | 70 | ||
| Scrap | 74 | 45 | ||
| Total internal failure cost | 184 | 115 | ||
| External failure costs: | ||||
| Warranty repairs | 78 | 28 | ||
| Customer returns | 252 | 87 | ||

| Total quality cost | $ | 1,129 | $ | 563 |
| Total production cost | $ | 4,270 | $ | 4,670 |
As they were reviewing the report, Elsoe asked Tran what he now thought of the quality improvement program. Tran replied. “I’m relieved that the new quality improvement program hasn’t hurt our bonuses, but the program has increased the workload in the Production Department. It is true that customer returns are way down, but the cell phones that were returned by customers to retail outlets were rarely sent back to us for rework.”
Required:
1. Expand the company’s quality cost report by showing the costs in both years as percentages of both total production cost and total quality cost. (Round your percentage answers to 1 decimal place (i.e 0.1234 should be entered as 12.3).)

During the current year, Hitchcock Developers disposed of plant assets in the following transactions.
| Feb. | 10 | Office equipment costing $24,000 was given to a scrap dealer at no charge. At the date of disposal, accumulated depreciation on the office equipment amounted to $21,800. | |
| Apr. | 1 | Hitchcock sold land and a building to Claypool Associates for $900,000, receiving $100,000 cash and a 5-year, 9 percent note receivable for the remaining balance. Hitchcock’s records showed the following amounts: Land, $50,000; Building, $550,000; Accumulated Depreciation: Building (at the date of disposal), $260,000. | |
| Aug. | 15 | Hitchcock traded in an old truck for a new one. The old truck had cost $26,000, and its accumulated depreciation amounted to $18,000. The list price of the new truck was $39,000, but Hitchcock received a $10,000 trade-in allowance for the old truck and paid $28,000 in cash. Hitchcock includes trucks in its Vehicles account. | |
| Oct. | 1 | Hitchcock traded in its old computer system as part of the purchase of a new system. The old system had cost $15,000, and its accumulated depreciation amounted to $11,000. The new computer’s list price was $8,000. Hitchcock accepted a trade-in allowance of $500 for the old computer system, paying $1,500 down in cash and issuing a 1-year, 8 percent note payable for the $6,000 balance owed. |
Required:
a. Prepare journal entries to record each of the
disposal transactions. Assume that depreciation expense on each
asset has been recorded up to the date of disposal. Thus, you need
not update the accumulated depreciation figures stated in the
problem.
b. Do gains and losses on asset disposals affect gross profit?

Nouveaux Toys Inc., manufactures plastic rubber ducks. In June, Nouveaux reported the following data:
a. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process.
b. Beginning work-in-process consisted of 3,000 units, 30 percent complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. Costs in beginning inventory included direct materials, $450; and conversion costs, $138.
c. Costs added to production during the month were direct materials, $950; and conversion costs, $2,174.50.
d. Inspection takes place at the end of the process. Malformed units are discarded. During normal operations, 0.5% of the units started will end up being malformed and discarded.
e. During the month, 7,000 units were started and 8,000 good units were transferred out to Finishing. All other units finished were malformed and discarded. There were 1,000 units that remained in ending work in process, 55 percent complete.
f. Remember to round your decimal points to four places for cost/EU rates.
Required: A. Prepare a physical unit flow schedule.
B. Calculate the 1) cost of goods transferred out, 2) ending work-in-process, and 3) loss due to spoilage using the weighted average method.
C. Prepare the journal entries to record 1) and 3) above. Reconcile these journal entries with beginning work in process to ensure that ending work in process matches 2).
D. Calculate the 1) cost of goods transferred out, 2) ending work-in-process, and 3) loss due to spoilage using the FIFO method.
E. Prepare the journal entries to record 1) and 3) above. Reconcile these journal entries with beginning work in process to ensure that ending work in process matches 2).
F. Assume instead that inspection takes place when units are 40 percent complete. How does this change the number of units spoiled? How does this change the number of units that were abnormal spoilage v. normal spoilage?
