ABC-A Service Application
Grand Haven is a senior living community that offers a full range
of services including independent living, assisted living, and
skilled nursing care. The assisted living division provides
residential space, meals, and medical services (MS) to its
residents. The current costing system adds the cost of all of these
services (space, meals, and MS) and divides by total resident days
to get a cost per resident day for each month. Recognizing that MS
tends to vary significantly among the residents, Grand Haven's
accountant recommended that an ABC system be designed to calculate
more accurately the cost of MS provided to residents. She decided
that residents should be classified into four categories (A, B, C,
D) based on the level of services received, with group A
representing the lowest level of service and D representing the
highest level of service. Two cost drivers being considered for
measuring MS costs are number of assistance calls and number of
assistant contacts. A contact is registered each time an assistance
professional provides medical services or aid to a resident. The
accountant has gathered the following data for the most recent
annual period:
Resident Classification |
Annual Resident Days |
Annual Assistance Hours | Number of Assistance Contacts |
---|---|---|---|
A |
8,760 | 15,000 | 60,000 |
B |
6,570 | 20,000 | 52,000 |
C |
4,380 | 22,500 | 52,000 |
D |

21,900 | 90,000 | 216,000 |
Other data: | |

Total cost of medical services for the period | $2,600,000 |
Total cost of meals and residential space | $1,742,500 |

5. Conceptual Connection: What are some reasons why GER's liquidity may be considered to be improving and some reasons why it may be worsening?
GER’s liquidity appears to hold constant when one looks only at the quick ratio . However, because the receivables and inventories may not be easily converted to cash, the liquidity of GER may be worsening.

Jason Ackerman is the management accountant for Central Restaurant Supply (CRS. Beth Donaldson, the CRS sales manager, and Jason are meeting to discuss the profitability of one of the customers, Mama Leone's Leone's Pizza. Jason hands Beth the following analysis of Mama Leone's activity during the last quarter, taken from Central activity-based costing system:
Sales $23,400
Cost of goods sold (all variable) 14,025
Order processing (25 orders processed at $300 per order) 7,500
Delivery (2,500 miles driven at $0.75 per mile) 1,875
Rush orders (3 rush orders at $165 per rush order) 495
Sales calls (3 sales calls at $150 per call) 450
Operating income $ (945)
Beth looks at the report and remarks, "I'm glad to see all my hard work is paying off with Mama Leone's. Sales have gone up 10 % over the previous quarter!"
Jason replies, "Increased sales are great, but I'm worried about Mama Leone's margin, Beth. We were showing a profit with Mama Leone's at the lower sales level, but now we're showing a loss. Gross margin percentage this quarter was 40 %, down five percentage points from the prior quarter. I'm afraid that corporate will push hard to drop them as a customer if things don't turn around."
"That's crazy," Beth responds. "A lot of that overhead for things like order processing, deliveries, and sales calls would just be allocated to other customers if we dropped Mama Leone's. This report makes it look like we're losing money on Mama Leone's when we're not. In any case, I am sure you can do something to make its profitability look closer to what we think it is. No one doubts that Mama Leone's is a very good customer."
Requirements
Assume that Beth is partly correct in her assessment of the report. Upon further investigation, it is determined that 10 % of the order processing costs and 20 % of the delivery costs would not be avoidable if CRS were to drop Mama Leone's. Would CRS benefit from dropping Mama Leone's? Show your calculations.
Beth's bonus is based on meeting sales targets. Based on the preceding information regarding gross margin percentage, what might Beth have done last quarter to meet her target and receive her bonus? How might CRS revise its bonus system to address this?
Should Jason rework the numbers? How should he respond to Beth's comments about making Mama Leone's look more profitable?
