CableVision has been approached by the City of Mirada to run its cable operations in 2019. After negotiating with key parties,CableVision has made the following agreements:

• It will offer Mirada residents a basic set of 25 cable television stations at a rate of $33.99 per month.
• It will pay the city $90,000 per month plus $2.50 per cable subscriber per month to maintain the physical facilities.
• It will actually pay another company an annual fixed fee of $760,000 plus $8.75 per cable subscriber per month to broadcast the 25 channels.

CableVision estimates that operating costs for billing, program news mailings, etc. will be $125,000 per month plus 7% of monthly revenue.

CableVision has several questions about its monthly revenues, costs, and profits in 2019.

Part A
1. What is the estimated monthy contribution margin per cable subscriber for CableVision in 2019? (20.36)

2. What are the estimated total monthly fixed costs for CableVision in 2019? (278,333)

Part B

1. What is CableVision's estimated monthly operating income in 2019 if 16,000 residents subscribe? (47,427)

2. How many monthly subscribers would be required for CableVision to break even in 2019? (13,670)

3. How many monthly subscribers would be required for CableVision to earn $23,000 per month in 2019? (14,800)

4. Assuming a tax rate of 31%, how many monthly subscribers would be required for CableVision to earn $23,000 per month in 2019?

Part C

Some of CableVision's managers are uncertain about their estimate of monthly fixed operating costs. Assuming that 21,000 residents subscribe, how large can monthly fixed operating costs be for CableVision to still earn $23,000 per month in 2019 (ignore taxes)?

“I know headquarters wants us to add that new product line,” said Dell Havasi, manager of Billings Company’s Office Products Division. “But I want to see the numbers before I make any move. Our division’s return on investment (ROI) has led the company for three years, and I don’t want any letdown.”

Billings Company is a decentralized wholesaler with five autonomous divisions. The divisions are evaluated on the basis of ROI, with year-end bonuses given to the divisional managers who have the highest ROIs. Operating results for the company’s Office Products Division for this year are given below:

Sales: $22,235,000. Variable expenses: 13,981,800. Contribution margin: 8,253,200. Fixed expenses: 6,100,000. Net operating income: $2,153,200. Divisional average operating assets: $4,625,000.

The company had an overall return on investment (ROI) of 17.00% this year (considering all divisions). Next year the Office Products Division has an opportunity to add a new product line that would require an additional investment that would increase average operating assets by $2,400,000. The cost and revenue characteristics of the new product line per year would be:

Sales: $9,600,000. Variable expenses: 65% of sales. Fixed expenses: $2,582,400.

Required:

1. Compute the Office Products Division’s ROI for this year.

2. Compute the Office Products Division’s ROI for the new product line by itself.

3. Compute the Office Products Division’s ROI for next year assuming that it performs the same as this year and adds the new product line.

4. If you were in Dell Havasi’s position, would you accept or reject the new product line?

5. Why do you suppose headquarters is anxious for the Office Products Division to add the new product line?

6. Suppose that the company’s minimum required rate of return on operating assets is 14% and that performance is evaluated using residual income.

a. Compute the Office Products Division’s residual income for this year.

b. Compute the Office Products Division’s residual income for the new product line by itself.

c. Compute the Office Products Division’s residual income for next year assuming that it performs the same as this year and adds the new product line.

d. Using the residual income approach, if you were in Dell Havasi’s position, would you accept or reject the new product line?
