Read the Case Study: Indirect Cost Analysis of Medical Equipment Manufacturing Costs at the end of Chapter 15 in your text. Study the information provided in the Case Study.

This project entails the following:

Use traditional indirect cost allocations to verify Arnie’s cost and price estimates. Support your conclusions with calculations.

Use any method you prefer to estimate the indirect cost allocation and total cost for each model. Support your estimations with calculations.

If the prices and number of units sold are the same next year (750,000 standard and 150,000 premium), and all other costs remain constant, determine the profit from PS6 using the traditional indirect cost allocation method.

What price should Health Care Services charge next year based on a 10% markup over cost? What is the total profit from PS6 predicted to be if sales hold steady?

Comment on the production manager’s prediction of indirect costs and the two reasons given to not produce the premium version of PS6. Is this valid? Why or why not?

Question No.1   

An auto parts supplier sells Hardy-brand batteries to car dealers and auto mechanics. The

annual demand is approximately 1500 batteries. The supplier pays 25 R.O for each battery

and estimates that the annual holding cost is 30% of the battery's value. It costs

approximately 30 R.O to place an order. The supplier currently orders 125 batteries per

month.

a. Determine the EOQ.

b. How many orders will be placed per year using the EOQ?

c. Determine the total cost for the current order quantity.

d. Determine the total inventory cost for the EOQ, How has ordering cost changed?

Question No2:   

Find EOQ if annual demand is 5500 cases of Coco cola and fixed ordering cost is 15 R.O per

order and purchase cost is 3 R.O per case and holding cost is 25% of value of inventory per year.

Your company is considering an expansion and preparing budgets with and without the expanded activities. You have been asked to predict the cost of shipping at several different activity levels. You believe pounds shipped is a good cost driver and you have gathered historical data from the last 6 accounting periods, as summarized in the following table: Total cost of shipping Number of pounds shipped Period 1 93740 25000 Period 2 75040 19500 Period 3 82350 22400 Period 4 82260 21300 Period 5 76800 19900 Period 6 89700 23800 You choose to use the High-Low method of estimating the fixed and variable components of a mixed cost. 1. What is the variable cost per pound? (Round to the nearest penny)

2. What is the fixed cost per period for shipping? (Round to the nearest dollar)

3. Use your results to predict the total cost of shipping in period 7 if 50000 pounds are expected.

Bob's lawn mowing service is a profit maximizing competitive firm. The following questions relate to Bob's short run and long run decisions regarding shutting down and exiting. For each question, determine whether Bob should shut down or operate in the short run and exit or remain in lawn mowing business in the long run.

a. Suppose that Bob is payed $28 per lawn and he mows 12 lawns per day. His total cost each day is $400, of which $50 is a fixed cost. Should Bob shut down or operate in the short run? Should Bob exit or remain in business in the long run?

b. Suppose Bob is payed $30 per lawn and he mows 12 lawns per day. His total cost each day is $400, $50 of which is a fixed cost. Should Bob shut down or operate in the short run? Should Bob exit or remain in business in the long run?

c. Suppose Bob is payed $35 per lawn and he mows 12 lawns per day. His total cost each day is $400, $50 of which is a fixed cost. Should Bob shut down or operate in the short run? Should Bob exit or remain in business in the long run?

Han Products manufactures 27,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line....

Han Products manufactures 27,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line. At this level of activity, the cost per unit for part S-6 is:

    

  Direct materials $ 4.90
  Direct labor 6.00
  Variable manufacturing overhead 3.50
  Fixed manufacturing overhead 12.00
  Total cost per part $ 26.40

   

An outside supplier has offered to sell 27,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $40.50 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $591,700. However, Han Products has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier.
