Worley Company buys surgical supplies from a variety of manufacturers and then resells and delivers these supplies to hundreds of hospitals. Worley sets its prices for all hospitals by marking up its cost of goods sold to those hospitals by 5%. For example, if a hospital buys supplies from Worley that cost Worley $100 to buy from manufacturers, Worley would charge the hospital $105 to purchase these supplies.

For years, Worley believed that the 5% markup covered its selling and administrative expenses and provided a reasonable profit. However, in the face of declining profits, Worley decided to implement an activity-based costing system to help improve its understanding of customer profitability. The company broke its selling and administrative expenses into five activities as shown:

Activity Cost Pool (Activity Measure) Total Cost Total Activity
Customer deliveries (Number of deliveries) $ 264,000 3,000 deliveries
Manual order processing (Number of manual orders) 600,000 8,000 orders
Electronic order processing (Number of electronic orders) 322,000 14,000 orders
Line item picking (Number of line items picked) 696,000 480,000 line items
Other organization-sustaining costs (None) 630,000
Total selling and administrative expenses $ 2,512,000

Worley gathered the data below for two of the many hospitals that it serves—University and Memorial (each hospital purchased medical supplies that had cost Worley $31,000 to buy from manufacturers):

Activity

Activity Measure University Memorial
Number of deliveries 11 23
Number of manual orders 0 40
Number of electronic orders 13 0
Number of line items picked 200 250

Required:

1. Compute the total revenue that Worley would receive from University and Memorial.

2. Compute the activity rate for each activity cost pool.

3. Compute the total activity costs that would be assigned to University and Memorial.

4. Compute Worley’s customer margin for University and Memorial. (Hint: Do not overlook the $31,000 cost of goods sold that Worley incurred serving each hospital.)

Worley Company buys surgical supplies from a variety of manufacturers and then resells and delivers these supplies to hundreds of hospitals. Worley sets its prices for all hospitals by marking up its cost of goods sold to those hospitals by 9%. For example, if a hospital buys supplies from Worley that cost Worley $100 to buy from manufacturers, Worley would charge the hospital $109 to purchase these supplies. For years, Worley believed that the 9% markup covered its selling and administrative expenses and provided a reasonable profit.

FE.N. Jim’s Jellybeans

Candy producer Jim’s Jellybeans have customers all over the world. To be able to meet demand, the company has been forced to operate 15 separate warehouses across the globe. Lately, however, development in IT and warehouse automation has created new possibilities for Jim’s Jellybeans. The cost of the current operation is (for the whole company):

  • Transportation: $1 000 000

  • Stock keeping: $15 000 000

  • Cost for tied-up capital: $2 000 000

The company is faced with three alternatives:

Alternative 1: Automate picking. This means that each warehouse will be 30% more expensive (stock keeping cost) due to new equipment etc. But it also means that the order to delivery lead-time for each warehouse will decrease by as much as 60%. The reduced lead time lets the company reduce the number of warehouses to 10. As a result of this, transportation cost will double.

Alternative 2: Automate everything. Here, the number of warehouses are reduced to 5. The remaining warehouses are heavily automated and stock keeping cost is increased by 70% for these. Transportation cost increases by 500%.

Alternative 3: Do nothing. Keep the current system intact.

Allocating Joint Costs Using the Physical Units Method

Orchard Fresh, Inc., purchases apples from local orchards and sorts them into four categories. Grade A are large blemish-free apples that can be sold to gourmet fruit sellers. Grade B apples are smaller and may be slightly out of proportion. These are packed in boxes and sold to grocery stores. Apples for slices are even smaller than Grade B apples and have blemishes. Apples for applesauce are of lower grade than apples for slices, yet still suitable for canning. Information on a recent purchase of 25,000 pounds of apples is as follows:

Grades Pounds
Grade A 2,250      
Grade B 6,250      
Slices 10,000      
Applesauce 6,500      
Total 25,000      

  Total joint cost is $18,750.

Required:

1. Allocate the joint cost to the four grades of apples using the physical units method.

Joint Cost
Grades Allocation
Grade A $
Grade B
Slices
Applesauce
  Total $

2. Allocate the joint cost to the four grades of apples by finding the average joint cost per pound and multiplying it by the number of pounds in the grade. Round the average cost answer to the nearest cent.

Average cost = $  per pound.

Joint Cost
Grades Allocation
Grade A $
Grade B $
Slices $

3. What if there were 2,750 pounds of Grade A apples and 5,750 pounds of Grade B? How would that affect the allocation of cost to these two grades? How would it affect the allocation of cost to the remaining common grades?
