Assume that you are considering purchasing an item that you currently manufacture. The manufacturing department of your firm has informed you that the average cost of the item produced inhouse is $66.00 per unit. You can produce as you need it, so no finished goods inventory is kept when you manufacture it yourself. Accounting has informed you that 9.1% of the fixed costs will not be saved if you stop producing the item. The item has associated with it seasonal quarterly demand as follows:

Quater 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4
Demand 200 300 400 200

a. Calculate the total annual variable cost associated with manufacturing the item yourself in-house: Total Annual Variable Cost:_____________________________

After receiving the RFQs back from a list of suppliers, you decide to go with a supplier that will sell the item to you at a unit cost of $52. It has been calculated that the cost to place an order with this supplier is $25 per order. The holding cost is estimated to be 18% of unit cost per year with no need for safety stock since the seller you would work with is local and has the excess capacity needed to supply the items as you need them.

b. Using the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) Model, evaluate the Total Annual Cost associated with outsourcing this item. Please fill out the table below (round to 2 decimal places):

Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4
Order Quantity (per order)
COGS per Quarter
Orderting Cost per Quarter
Holding Cost per Quarter
Quarterly Total Cost

Overall Total Annual Cost:

c. Given the annual cost analysis above, should you continue to manufacture the item in-house or purchase it from this supplier? Support you conclusion with savings figures.

Sophie has a business where she sells DVDs for $15 each. The average variable cost of production is $10 per unit. The average total cost of production is $16. What should she do in the short run?

a. She should continue operating since the business is earning an economic profit.
b. She should shut down because the sales are NOT covering the average total cost of production.
c. She should shut down since the business is earning zero economic profit.

d. She should continue producing even though the sale price is NOT covering the average total cost of production.

What can you conclude about a firm in the short run when its price is less than its average total cost?

a. The firm should shut down.
b. The firm should exit the market.
c. The firm is suffering an economic loss.

d. The firm is earning an economic profit

Assume that a particular perfectly competitive market is a heavy user of inputs whose outputs can be increased only at an increasing cost. Under these conditions, what will be the short-run supply curve for the market?

a. downward sloping
b. vertical
c. upward sloping

d. horizontal

What part of the marginal cost curve for a firm is the short-run supply curve?

a. It is the entire marginal cost curve.
b. It is the marginal cost curve below the price.
c. It is the marginal cost curve above the average cost.
d. It is the marginal cost curve above the average variable cost.

Problem 16-2A Weighted average: Cost per equivalent unit; costs assigned to products LO C2, C3

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Victory Company uses weighted-average process costing to account for its production costs. Conversion cost is added evenly throughout the process. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. During November, the company transferred 740,000 units of product to finished goods. At the end of November, the work in process inventory consists of 191,000 units that are 70% complete with respect to conversion. Beginning inventory had $544,635 of direct materials and $218,425 of conversion cost. The direct material cost added in November is $3,644,865, and the conversion cost added is $4,150,075. Beginning work in process consisted of 70,000 units that were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80% complete with respect to conversion. Of the units completed, 70,000 were from beginning work in process and 670,000 units were started and completed during the period.

Problem 16-2A Part 3

3. Compute the direct material cost and the conversion cost assigned to units completed and transferred out and ending work in process inventory. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)

• Other controls (specify)

a. While reviewing the records of Quality Pharmacy, you find that the same Team member orders merchandise and approves invoices for payment.

b. Business is slow at Amazing Amusement Park on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights. To reduce expenses, the business decides not to use a ticket taker on those nights. The ticket seller (cashier) is told to keep the tickets as a record of the number sold.

c. The same trusted team member has served as a cashier for 12 years.

d. When business is brisk, Fast Mart deposits cash in the bank several times during the day. The manager at one store wants to reduce the time employees spend delivering cash to the bank, so he starts a new policy. Cash will build up over weekends, and the total will be deposited on Monday.

e. Grocery stores such as Convenience Market and Natural Foods purchase most merchandise from a few suppliers. At another grocery store, the manager decides to reduce paperwork. He eliminates the requirement that the receiving department prepare a receiving report listing the goods actually received from

the supplier.
