Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $240 and $162, respectively....

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $240 and $162, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $5 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 131,000 units of each product. Its average cost per unit for each product at this level of activity are given below:

Alpha Beta
Direct materials $ 35 $ 15
Direct labor 48 23
Variable manufacturing overhead 27 25
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead 35 38
Variable selling expenses 32 28
Common fixed expenses 35 30
Total cost per unit $ 212 $ 159

The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars.

Foundational 12-12

What contribution margin per pound of raw material is earned by each of the two products? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

13. Assume that Cane’s customers would buy a maximum of 100,000 units of Alpha and 80,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the company’s raw material available for production is limited to 261,000 pounds. How many units of each product should Cane produce to maximize its profits

14. Assume that Cane’s customers would buy a maximum of 100,000 units of Alpha and 80,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the company’s raw material available for production is limited to 261,000 pounds. What is the maximum contribution margin Cane Company can earn given the limited quantity of raw materials?

15. Assume that Cane’s customers would buy a maximum of 100,000 units of Alpha and 80,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the company’s raw material available for production is limited to 261,000 pounds. If Cane uses its 261,000 pounds of raw materials, up to how much should it be willing to pay per pound for additional raw materials? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

b) Hector Gonzales runs the Floral Art Company, which supplies floral arrangements to three large supermarket chains throughout Australia. Management has become concerned about the rising costs associated with the process and dispatch of orders. An activity analysis of the indirect costs identified the following customer-related costs.

  1. Assign the activity costs to each of the three customers
  1. Calculate the contribution for each customer if the sales pattern for each is as follows:

Supermarket customer

Sales revenue**

$350,000

2

$160,000

3

$210,000

**Selling price is marked up 50% on direct cost of flowers.

Hints: conduct a customer profitability analysis based on the above customer related indirect costs.

  1. What conclusion can we draw from the customer profit analysis? Advise the management of the Floral Art Company as to whether any changes should be made in its relationships with customers. Advise Hector as to how he should go about executing these changes.

The Tri-City Office Equipment Corporation sells an imported copier on a franchise basis andperforms preventive maintenance and repair service on this copier. The data below have beencollected from 45 recent calls on users to perform routine preventive maintenance service; foreach call, X is the number of copiers serviced and Y is the total number of minutes spent bythe service person. Assume that first-order regression model (1.1) is appropriate CH01PR20.txt (a) Estimate the change in the mean service time when the number of copiers serviced increases by one. Use a 90 percent confidence interval. Interpret your confidence interval. (d) The manufacturer has suggested that the mean required time should not increase by more than 14 minutes for each additional copier that is serviced on a service call. Conduct a test to decide whether this standard is being satisfied by Tri-City. Control the risk of a Type I error at 0.05. State the alternatives, decision rule, and conclusion. What is the P-value of the test? (e) Does b subscript 0 give any relevant information here about the ``start-up" time on calls, that is, about the time required before service work is begun on the copiers at a customer location?
