A company has the capacity to generate a revenue of $3,000,000 a year. The break even revenue is $2,000,000 a year. From the breakeven point every $100 extra revenue generates $40 extra profit and every $100 decrease in revenue results in $40 extra loss. The costs consist of fixed cost , variable costs which are linear related to the revenue. 1-calculate the fix cost 2-calcualte the variable cost at revenue of $1,500,000 a year. The company decides to purchase another machine, which results in an increase of capacity to 4,000,000 a year. The fixed cost of this expansion is 200,000 a year, and the variable costs are 40$ for 100% revenue. The normal revenues is 4,000,000 a year, and the actual revenues is also $4,000,000. 3- calculate the breakeven point after the expansion. 4- calculate the full cost per dollar revenue after the expansion

4 . Individual Problems 22-1

Suppose that a paper mill “feeds” a downstream box mill. For the downstream mill, the marginal profitability of producing boxes declines with volume. For example, the first unit of boxes increases earnings by $30, the second by $27, the third by $24, and so on, until the tenth unit increases profit by just $3.

The cost the upstream mill incurs for producing enough paper (one “unit” of paper) to make one unit of boxes is $9.50.

Assume the two mills operate as separate profit centers, and the paper mill sets the price of paper. It follows that the marginal profitability of boxes represents the highest price that the box division would be willing to pay the paper division for boxes.. Furthermore, assume that fixed costs are $0 for the paper mill.

The following table summarizes the quantity, total revenue, and marginal costs from the perspective of the paper mill for selling paper to the box mill at various prices.

In the following table, fill in the marginal revenue, total cost, and total profit for the paper mill when selling paper to the box mill at each given price.

If the paper mill sets the price of paper to sell to the box mill, it will set a price of (_____ ) and sell (______) units of paper to the box mill. Profits will be(_____)

for the paper mill. Companywide  profits will be(______). (Hint: Recall that the prices in the table represent the marginal profitability of each unit of paper, or box, to the box mill.)

Suppose the paper mill is forced to transfer paper to the box mill at marginal cost ($9.50).

In this case, the box mill will demand(_____) units of paper. This leads to companywide profits of (_____).

Re: Preparation for annual audit

I am preparing the working papers for the December 31, 2018 year-end audit to present to the company’s auditors when they arrive late next week. In reviewing the draft financial statements and other information, I have identified a number of issues that need to be addressed:

  1. Inventory Errors: in reviewing the documentation obtained during the December 31, 2018 inventory count for the heavy equipment division, I discovered a number of errors. The details are provided below.
  1. We received an invoice from a supplier on January 3, 2019 for goods purchased with a cost of $61,000. This invoice was entered into our accounts payable system on that date. The goods were shipped by the supplier on December 26, 2018 and were received by us on January 3, 2019. The invoice terms were 2/10, n30, FOB shipping. These goods were a special order for one of our customers, and we sold the goods to the customer on January 7, 2019 for $93,000. These goods were not included in the December 31 inventory count. What are the key financial reporting issues? Where possible. What is the potential impact of the issue on the balance sheet and income statement, and explain why an adjustment is required? If there are areas where judgment is involved, or the accounting treatment is not clear. What are the alternatives that are available and factors that need to be considered in choosing an alternative?

The Arm & Hammer® product—sodium bicarbonate—was introduced in the US in 1846 as “baking soda.” For the next 100 years, Arm & Hammer® was a staple in the typical American home.

Church & Dwight Company, a publically traded company, is the parent company of the Arm & Hammer® product line. Although originally used only for baking purposes, the company has leveraged the other key attributes of basic baking soda (cleaning and deodorizing benefits) into numerous applications.

The first Arm & Hammer® detergent was introduced as early as 1970. In 1972, the product benefits expanded to use inside the refrigerator and freezer to eliminate odors. By 2005, the Arm & Hammer® product line included laundry detergent, carpet deodorizers, Dental Care® products, cat litter, Clear Balance® pool maintenance tablets; and CleanShower® for the bathroom.

In addition, line filling was accomplished through acquisitions of companies like USA Detergents, Carter-Wallace, Inc., and Orange Glo International. These acquired product lines allowed Arm & Hammer® to expand their product line further into the personal care and household product segments.

In 1995, Church & Dwight Co., Inc. reported annual sales of $600 million. Their 2007 annual report reflects annual sales of $2.22 billion—40% of which is generated by Arm & Hammer products. Church & Dwight Company divides their product lines into three segments: consumer domestic, consumer international, and special product division (B2B). In 2007, consumer domestic (of which Arm & Hammer® is the major player) generated 71% of total revenues. Wal-Mart, Arm & Hammer’s® leading retailer, produced 22% of total consumer domestic revenues.

Level 1: Qualitative Questions

1.   What is the core benefit of Arm & Hammer® products?

     

2.   Would you consider Arm & Hammer® to have a “full-line product strategy?”

     

3.   Would you consider Arm & Hammer products to be in direct competition with those offered by Proctor & Gamble? Why?

Level 2: Quantitative Questions

1.         In dollars, how important is the Wal-Mart relationship to the Arm & Hammer® segment of Church & Dwight’s annual sales?

           

2.         Some marketing gurus warn that line expansions can dilute the brand. Do you feel this should be a concern for Arm & Hammer?
