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?

Direct Labor Variances

The following data relate to labor cost for production of 3,400 cellular telephones:

a. Determine the direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total direct labor cost variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

b. The employees may have been less-experienced workers who were paid less than more-experienced workers or poorly trained, thereby resulting in a labor rate than planned. The lower level of experience or training may have resulted in efficient performance. Thus, the actual time required was than standard.

Kropf Inc. has provided the following data concerning one of the products in its standard cost system. Variable manufacturing overhead is applied to products on the basis of direct labor-hours.

Required:

a. Compute the materials price variance for September.

b. Compute the materials quantity variance for September.

c. Compute the labor rate variance for September.

A newly organized manufacturing business plans to manufacture and sell 50,000 units per year of a new product. Direct materials cost Rs. 47 per unit while direct labor cost is Rs. 32. Manufacturing overheads has two parts: variable part is Rs. 4 per unit while fixed costs are Rs. 340,000 per year. Selling expenses are Re.1 per unit while administrative expenses are Rs. 200,000 for a year.

1. What should the company establish as the selling price per unit if it sets a target of earning an operating income of Rs. 260,000 by producing and selling 50,000 units during the first year of operations?
2. At the unit price computed in part a, how many units must the company produce and sell to break even? Calculate breakeven point in currency value too.
3. What will be the margin of safety (in units and currency) if the company produces and sells 50,000 units at the sales price computed in part a)?
4. Compute operating income at 50,000 units.
5. Due to heavy competition, the marketing manager thinks that the selling price must not be more than Rs. 94, in order to maintain sales of 50,000 units. Can the company survive by making profits at this price? Show calculations to justify your answer.

Ron Abrams, VP Operations for Wilson Bros. has come wandering into your office muttering under his breath (clearly exasperated) after reading the financial statements for one of the plants in Western Europe. After composing himself somewhat he says, "How can a Canadian finance executive sign off on these statements? They look nothing like any statement I’ve seen in Canada before! I know we paid a translator to present these in English, but I cannot make heads or tails of these. Are we profitable there or not?" Knowing what you have read about financial statements briefly describe if these financial statements could be correct, and if so why? Provide constructive feedback to at least two other students’ postings.

Thornton Manufacturing Company uses two departments to make its products. Department I is a cutting department that is machine intensive and uses very few employees. Machines cut and form parts and then place the finished parts on a conveyor belt that carries them to Department II, where they are assembled into finished goods. The assembly department is labor intensive and requires many workers to assemble parts into finished goods. The company’s manufacturing facility incurs two significant overhead costs: employee fringe benefits and utility costs. The annual costs of fringe benefits are $312,000 and utility costs are $240,000. The typical consumption patterns for the two departments are as follows:

The supervisor of each department receives a bonus based on how well the department controls costs. The company’s current policy requires using a single allocation base (machine hours or labor hours) to allocate the total overhead cost of $552,000.

Required

1. Assume that you are the supervisor of Department I. Choose the allocation base that would minimize your department’s share of the total overhead cost. Calculate the amount of overhead that would be allocated to both departments using the base that you selected.

2. Assume that you are the supervisor of Department II. Choose the allocation base that would minimize your department’s share of the total overhead cost. Calculate the amount of overhead that would be allocated to both departments using the base that you selected.

3. Assume that you are the plant manager and have the authority to change the company’s overhead allocation policy. Formulate an overhead allocation policy that would be fair to the supervisors of both Department I and Department II. Compute the overhead allocations for each department using your policy.
