Case Problem - Regression

Are you going to hate your new job?

Getting a new job can be exciting and uplifting. But what if you discover that after a short time on the job, that you hate your new job? Is there any way to determine ahead of time whether you will love or hate your new job? According to the Wall Street Journal, there are a few things to look for in the interview that might help you to determine whether you will be happy on that job.

A study conducted by the University of Connecticut posed several questions to employees to ascertain their job satisfaction. Themes included: relationship with the supervisor, overall quality of the work environment, total weekly hours worked, and opportunity for advancement at the job. Nineteen employees were asked to rate their job satisfaction on a scale of 0-100, with 100 being perfectly satisfied. The results of the survey are as follows. Assume that the relationship with a supervisor is rated from 0-50, with 50 as excellent. Overall workplace quality rated from 0-100, with 100 representing an excellent environment and opportunities for advancement on a scale of 0-50 with 50 representing excellent opportunity.

1. A jar contains 100 gummy bears: 50 ordinary candies, and 50 cannabis edibles. Of the ordinary candies, 40 are red and 10 are green. Of the cannabis edibles, 20 are red, and 30 are green. A gummy bear is drawn at random from the jar, in such a way that each gummy bear is equally likely to be the one drawn. What is the probability that the drawn gummy bear is a cannabis edible, conditional on it being red?

Wesco Incorporated’s only product is a combination fertilizer/weedkiller called GrowNWeed. GrowNWeed is sold nationwide to retail nurseries and garden stores.

Zwinger Nursery plans to sell a similar fertilizer/weedkiller compound through its regional nursery chain under its own private label. Zwinger does not have manufacturing facilities of its own, so it has asked Wesco (and several other companies) to submit a bid for manufacturing and delivering a 35,000-pound order of the private brand compound to Zwinger. While the chemical composition of the Zwinger compound differs from that of GrowNWeed, the manufacturing processes are very similar.

The Zwinger compound would be produced in 1,000-pound lots. Each lot would require 31 direct labor-hours and the following chemicals:

Chemicals Quantity in Pounds
AG-5 340
KL-2 210
CW-7 140
DF-6 310

The first three chemicals (AG-5, KL-2, and CW-7) are all used in the production of GrowNWeed. DF-6 was used in another compound that Wesco discontinued several months ago. The supply of DF-6 that Wesco had on hand when the other compound was discontinued was not discarded. Wesco could sell its supply of DF-6 at the prevailing market price less $0.08 per pound selling and handling expenses.

Wesco also has on hand a chemical called BH-3, which was manufactured for use in another product that is no longer produced. BH-3, which cannot be used in GrowNWeed, can be substituted for AG-5 on a one-for-one basis without affecting the quality of the Zwinger compound. The BH-3 in inventory has a salvage value of $520.

Inventory and cost data for the chemicals that can be used to produce the Zwinger compound are shown below:

Raw Material Pounds in

Actual Price

Price per
Pound
AG-5 26,000 $ 0.75 $ 0.85
KL-2 5,600 $ 0.50 $ 0.55
CW-7 8,800 $ 1.27 $ 1.47
DF-6 9,450 $ 0.46 $ 0.60
BH-3 5,800 $ 0.71 (Salvage)

The current direct labor wage rate is $18 per hour. The predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor-hours (DLH). The predetermined overhead rate for the current year, based on a two-shift capacity with no overtime, is as follows:

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 4.10 per DLH
Fixed manufacturing overhead 8.30 per DLH
Combined predetermined overhead rate $ 12.40 per DLH

Wesco’s production manager reports that the present equipment and facilities are adequate to manufacture the Zwinger compound. Therefore, the order would have no effect on total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. However, Wesco is within 130 hours of its two-shift capacity this month. Any additional hours beyond the 130 hours must be done in overtime. If need be, the Zwinger compound could be produced on regular time by shifting a portion of GrowNWeed production to overtime. Wesco’s direct labor wage rate for overtime is $27 per hour. There is no allowance for any overtime premium in the predetermined overhead rate.

Required:

1. Wesco has decided to submit a bid for the 35,000 pound order of Zwinger’s new compound. The order must be delivered by the end of the current month. Zwinger has indicated that this is a one-time order that will not be repeated. Calculate the lowest price that Wesco could bid for the order and still exactly cover its incremental manufacturing costs.

2. Refer to the original data. Assume that Zwinger Nursery plans to place regular orders for 35,000-pound lots of the new compound. Wesco expects the demand for GrowNWeed to remain strong. Therefore, the recurring orders from Zwinger would put Wesco over its two-shift capacity. However, production could be scheduled so that 60% of each Zwinger order could be completed during regular hours. As another option, some GrowNWeed production could be shifted temporarily to overtime so that the Zwinger orders could be produced on regular time. Current market prices are the best available estimates of future market prices.

Wesco’s standard markup policy for new products is 40% of the full manufacturing cost, including fixed manufacturing overhead. Calculate the price that Wesco, Inc., would quote Zwinger Nursery for each 35,000 pound lot of the new compound, assuming that it is to be treated as a new product and this pricing policy is followed.
