Padre, Inc., buys 80 percent of the outstanding common stock of Sierra Corporation on January 1, 2018, for $771,200 cash. At the acquisition date, Sierra’s total fair value, including the noncontrolling interest, was assessed at $964,000 although Sierra’s book value was only $614,000. Also, several individual items on Sierra’s financial records had fair values that differed from their book values as follows:

Book Value Fair Value

“I know headquarters wants us to add that new product line,” said Dell Havasi, manager of...

“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 $ 22,600,000
Variable expenses 14,157,400
Contribution margin 8,442,600
Fixed expenses 6,160,000
Net operating income $ 2,282,600
Divisional average operating assets $ 4,520,000

The company had an overall return on investment (ROI) of 16.00% 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 $2,450,000. The cost and revenue characteristics of the new product line per year would be:

Sales $9,800,000
Variable expenses 65% of sales
Fixed expenses $2,595,000

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 13% 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?

You have just been hired by FAB Corporation, the manufacturer of a revolutionary new garage door opening device. The president has asked that you review the company’s costing system and “do what you can to help us get better control of our manufacturing overhead costs.” You find that the company has never used a flexible budget, and you suggest that preparing such a budget would be an excellent first step in overhead planning and control.

After much effort and analysis, you determined the following cost formulas and gathered the following actual cost data for March:

Cost Formula Actual Cost in March
Utilities $16,300 plus $0.19 per machine-hour $ 21,710
Maintenance $38,300 plus $1.20 per machine-hour $ 54,900
Supplies $0.80 per machine-hour $ 15,000
Indirect labor $94,900 plus $2.00 per machine-hour $ 133,800
Depreciation $67,800 $ 69,500

During March, the company worked 17,000 machine-hours and produced 11,000 units. The company had originally planned to work 19,000 machine-hours during March.

Required:

1. Prepare a flexible budget for March.

2. Prepare a report showing the spending variances for March.

On January 1, 2018, Marshall Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of Tucker Company. To acquire these shares, Marshall issued $295,000 in long-term liabilities and 20,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $1 per share but a fair value of $10 per share. Marshall paid $26,500 to accountants, lawyers, and brokers for assistance in the acquisition and another $11,500 in connection with stock issuance costs.

Prior to these transactions, the balance sheets for the two companies were as follows:

Marshall Company

Additional paid-in capital (360,000 ) 0
Retained earnings, 1/1/18 (518,000 ) (432,300 )

Note: Parentheses indicate a credit balance.

In Marshall’s appraisal of Tucker, it deemed three accounts to be undervalued on the subsidiary’s books: Inventory by $7,550, Land by $17,600, and Buildings by $25,400. Marshall plans to maintain Tucker’s separate legal identity and to operate Tucker as a wholly owned subsidiary.

  1. Determine the amounts that Marshall Company would report in its postacquisition balance sheet. In preparing the postacquisition balance sheet, any required adjustments to income accounts from the acquisition should be closed to Marshall’s retained earnings. Other accounts will also need to be added or adjusted to reflect the journal entries Marshall prepared in recording the acquisition.
  2. To verify the answers found in part (a), prepare a worksheet to consolidate the balance sheets of these two companies as of January 1, 2018.

The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $70 per unit in two geographic regions—the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company’s first year of operations in which it produced 41,000 units and sold 36,000 units.
  
Variable costs per unit:
Manufacturing:
Direct materials $ 20
Direct labor $ 10
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2
Variable selling and administrative $ 4
Fixed costs per year:
Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 984,000
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $308,000
  
The company sold 26,000 units in the East region and 10,000 units in the West region. It determined that $150,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expenses is traceable to the West region, $100,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $58,000 is a common fixed cost. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product


1. What is the company’s break-even point in unit sales?

2. If the sales volume in the east and west regions had been reversed, what would be the company’s overall break-even point in unit sales?

3. What would have been the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 36,000 units?   

4. What would have been the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 36,000 units?

5. If the company produces 5,000 fewer units than it sells in its second year of operations, will absorption costing net operating income be higher or lower than variable costing net operating income in Year 2?

6. Prepare a contribution format segmented income statement that includes a Total column and columns for the East and West regions.

7. Diego is considering eliminating the West region because an internally generated report suggests the region’s total gross margin in the first year of operations was $10,000 less than its traceable fixed selling and administrative expenses. Diego believes that if it drops the West region, the East region's sales will grow by 6% in Year 2. Using the contribution approach for analyzing segment profitability and assuming all else remains constant in Year 2, what would be the profit impact of dropping the West region in Year 2?

8. Assume the West region invests $31,000 in a new advertising campaign in Year 2 that increases its unit sales by 20%. If all else remains constant, what would be the profit impact of pursuing the advertising campaign?

Tami Tyler opened Tami’s Creations, Inc., a small manufacturing company, at the beginning of the year. Getting the company through its first quarter of operations placed a considerable strain on Ms. Tyler’s personal finances. The following income statement for the first quarter was prepared by a friend who has just completed a course in managerial accounting at State University.

Tami’s Creations, Inc.

Income Statement

For the Quarter Ended March 31

Sales (28,250 units) $ 1,130,000
Variable expenses:
Variable cost of goods sold $ 446,350
Variable selling and administrative 193,512 639,862
Contribution margin 490,138
Fixed expenses:
Fixed manufacturing overhead 329,175
Fixed selling and administrative 185,712 514,888
Net operating loss $ ( 24,750)

Ms. Tyler is discouraged over the loss shown for the quarter, particularly because she had planned to use the statement as support for a bank loan. Another friend, a CPA, insists that the company should be using absorption costing rather than variable costing and argues that if absorption costing had been used the company probably would have reported at least some profit for the quarter.

At this point, Ms. Tyler is manufacturing only one product—a swimsuit. Production and cost data relating to the swimsuit for the first quarter follow:

Units produced 33,250
Units sold 28,250
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $ 7.50
Direct labor $ 6.70
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60
Variable selling and administrative $ 6.85

Required:

1. Complete the following:

a. Compute the unit product cost under absorption costing.

b. What is the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) for the quarter?

c. Reconcile the variable and absorption costing net operating income (loss) figures.

3. During the second quarter of operations, the company again produced 33,250 units but sold 38,250 units. (Assume no change in total fixed costs.)

a. What is the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) for the second quarter?

b. What is the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) for the second quarter?

c. Reconcile the variable costing and absorption costing net operating incomes for the second quarter.

Direct materials $ 8
Direct labor 12
Variable manufacturing overhead 2
Fixed manufacturing overhead ($336,000 ÷ 21,000 units) 16
Absorption costing unit product cost $ 38

Forty percent of fixed manufacturing overhead consists of wages and salaries; the remainder consists of depreciation charges on production equipment and buildings.

Production and cost data for the first two years of operations are:

Year 1 Year 2
Units produced 21,000 21,000
Units sold 16,000 26,000

Required:

1. Using variable costing, what is the unit product cost for both years?

2. What is the variable costing net operating income in Year 1 and in Year 2?

3. Reconcile the absorption costing and the variable costing net operating income figures for each year.
