Problem 10-4A Sell or process LO A1

Harold Manufacturing produces denim clothing. This year, it produced 5,120 denim jackets at a manufacturing cost of $42.00 each. These jackets were damaged in the warehouse during storage. Management investigated the matter and identified three alternatives for these jackets.

  1. Jackets can be sold to a secondhand clothing shop for $8.00 each.
  2. Jackets can be disassembled at a cost of $31,300 and sold to a recycler for $11.00 each.
  3. Jackets can be reworked and turned into good jackets. However, with the damage, management estimates it will be able to assemble the good parts of the 5,120 jackets into only 2,980 jackets. The remaining pieces of fabric will be discarded. The cost of reworking the jackets will be $101,800, but the jackets can then be sold for their regular price of $45.00 each.

Required:
1. Calculate the incremental income.

  6. Question 6:
    • Proficient-level:
      • Consider this scenario. James Stevens was taking an accounting course at State University. Also, he was helping companies find accounting systems that would fit their information needs. He advised one of his clients to acquire a software computer package that could record business transactions and prepare financial statements. The licensing agreement with the software company specified that the basic charge for one site was USD 4,000 and that USD 1,000 must be paid for each additional site where the software was used. James was pleased that his recommendation to acquire the software was followed. However, he was upset that management wanted him to install the software at eight other sites in the company and did not intend to pay the extra USD 8,000 due the software company. A member of management stated, "The software company will never know the difference and, besides, everyone else seems to be pirating software. If they do find out, we will pay the extra fee at that time. Our expenses are high enough without paying these unnecessary costs." James believed he might lose this client if he did not do as management instructed. Discuss whether you believe this is an ethical violation.

Problem 5-50 Activity-Based Costing; Analysis of Operations (LO 5-1, 5-2, 5-4, 5-5, 5-7, 5-10)

Grady and Associates performs a variety of activities related to information systems and e-commerce consulting in Toronto, Canada. The firm, which bills $160 per hour for services performed, is in a very tight local labor market and is having difficulty finding quality help for its overworked professional staff. The cost per hour for professional staff time is $70. Selected information follows.

  • Billable hours to clients for the year totaled 8,000, consisting of information systems services, 4,800; e-commerce consulting, 3,200.
  • Administrative cost of $411,760 was (and continues to be) allocated to both services based on billable hours. These costs consist of staff support, $220,200; in-house computing, $155,000; and miscellaneous office charges, $36,560.

A recent analysis of staff support costs found a correlation with the number of clients served. In-house computing and miscellaneous office charges varied directly with the number of computer hours logged and number of client transactions, respectively. A tabulation revealed the following data:

Information
Systems Services
E-Commerce
Consulting
Total
Number of clients 245 65 310
Number of computer hours 3,600 2,300 5,900
Number of client transactions 680 820 1,500


Required:
2.
Assume that the firm uses traditional costing procedures, allocating total costs on the basis of billable hours. Determine the profitability of the firm’s information systems and e-commerce activities, expressing your answer both in dollars and as a percentage of activity revenue.
3. Assume that the firm uses activity-based costing. Determine the profitability of the firm’s information systems and e-commerce activities, expressing your answer both in dollars and as a percentage of activity revenue.
4. Jeffrey Grady, one of the firm’s partners, doesn’t care where his professionals spend their time because, as he notes, “many clients have come to expect both services and we need both to stay in business. Also, information systems and e-commerce professionals are paid the same hourly rate.” Should Grady’s attitude change?

In February 2017, Sheridan Construction signed a contract and commenced construction on a parking garage. The total contract price was $90.9 million, and was expected to be completed in July 2021 at a total estimated cost of $82.9 million. Payment by the customer was to be made in several stages, based on significant events and dates throughout the construction timeline. The customer was to have control over the parking garage and was able to make major changes to the project during the construction process. Sheridan’s year-end was September 30.

By the end of September, 2017, Sheridan had incurred $12,435,000 in costs and had invoiced $10,100,000 in progress billings. $9,100,000 of the progress billings had been collected.

In conducting interviews and observing factory operations to implement an activity-based costing system, you determine that several activities are unnecessary or redundant. For example, warehouse personnel was inspecting purchased components as they were received at the loading dock. Later that day, the components were inspected again on the shop floor before being installed in the final product. Both of these activities caused costs to be incurred but were not adding value to the product. If you include this observation in your report, one or more employees who perform inspections will likely lose their jobs. Page 804 Required As a plant employee, what is your responsibility to report your findings to superiors? Should you attempt to determine if the redundancy is justified? Explain. What is your responsibility to the employees whose jobs will likely be lost because of your report? What facts should you consider before making your decision to report or not??

Review Exercise 3-1 on page 115 of the text. Compute the company's predetermined overhead rate and explain the four-step process to compute a predetermined overhead rate. How would this rate be effected if the direct labor hours increased to 25,000? How would the rate be effected if the overhead were to increase to $150,000. Give examples of some of the challenges a manager may have in completing this computation.

Harris Fabrics computes its predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 20,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period’s estimated level of production. The company also estimated $94,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead expenses for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $2.00 per direct labor hour. Harris’s actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $123,900 and its actual total direct labor was 21,000 hours.

Required:

Compute the company’s predetermined overhead rate for the year.
