Worley Company buys surgical supplies from a variety of manufacturers and then resells and delivers these...

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 7%. For example, if a hospital buys supplies from Worley that cost Worley $100 to buy from manufacturers, Worley would charge the hospital $107 to purchase these supplies.

For years, Worley believed that the 7% 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) $ 328,000 4,000 deliveries
Manual order processing (Number of manual orders) 304,000 4,000 orders
Electronic order processing (Number of electronic orders) 252,000 12,000 orders
Line item picking (Number of line items picked) 777,000 420,000 line items
Other organization-sustaining costs (None) 680,000
Total selling and administrative expenses $ 2,341,000

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 $33,000 to buy from manufacturers):

Activity

Activity Measure University Memorial
Number of deliveries 13 25
Number of manual orders 0 43
Number of electronic orders 15 0
Number of line items picked 140 260

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 $33,000 cost of goods sold that Worley incurred serving each hospital. The company provides service to customers (instead of selling products), so there will be no direct material or direct labor costs.

Antioch Company makes eBook readers. The company had the following amounts at the beginning of 2018: Cash, $662,000; Raw Materials Inventory, $61,000; Work in Process Inventory, $27,000; Finished Goods Inventory, $61,000; Common Stock, $584,000; and Retained Earnings, $227,000. Antioch experienced the following accounting events during 2018. Other than the adjusting entries for depreciation, assume that all transactions are cash transactions.

  1. Paid $31,000 of research and development costs.
  2. Paid $57,000 for raw materials that will be used to make eBook readers.

  3. Placed $83,000 of the raw materials cost into the process of manufacturing eBook readers.

  4. Paid $65,000 for salaries of selling and administrative employees.

  5. Paid $99,000 for wages of production workers.

  6. Paid $97,000 to purchase equipment used in selling and administrative offices.

  7. Recognized depreciation on the office equipment. The equipment was acquired on January 1, 2018. It has a $17,000 salvage value and a eight-year life. The amount of depreciation is computed as [(Cost – salvage) ÷ useful life]. Specifically, ($97,000 – $17,000) ÷ 8 = $10,000.

  8. Paid $106,000 to purchase manufacturing equipment.

  9. Recognized depreciation on the manufacturing equipment. The equipment was acquired on January 1, 2018. It has a $22,000 salvage value and a seven-year life. The amount of depreciation is computed as [(Cost – salvage) ÷ useful life]. Specifically, ($106,000 – $22,000) ÷ 7 = $12,000.

  10. Paid $45,000 for rent and utility costs on the manufacturing facility.

  11. Paid $72,000 for inventory holding expenses for completed eBook readers (rental of warehouse space, salaries of warehouse personnel, and other general storage cost).

  12. Completed and transferred eBook readers that had total cost of $249,000 from work in process inventory to finished goods.

  13. Sold 850 eBook readers for $430,000.

  14. It cost Antioch $161,500 to make the eBook readers sold in Event 13.

Use the following data on median values of single detached houses of Canadian residents in 20 census metropolitan areas in British Columbia and Ontario in 2017 (source: Statistics Canada) to prepare a statistical report. The data are reported in units of a hundred thousand dollars rounded to the nearest ten thousand dollars (so, for example, 5.7 represents $570,000).

Data: 5.7, 5.2, 12.6, 6.4, 3.7, 2.1, 2.9, 2.4, 4.2, 4.3, 2.9, 3.6, 2.6, 4.2, 4.2, 2.7, 2.5, 2.2, 7.2, 1.9. ):

1. A dotplot or a histogram of the data. Note that you’ll have to group the data into suitable, equal-sized intervals before drawing your graph.

2. A pie graph of the data showing the percentages of the sample in the following categories: 1-3, 3-5, 5-7, 7-10, and 10 or higher.

3. The mean and the median, together with a brief discussion of which of these is the more appropriate measure of what is typical or representative for this dataset.

4. The 5-number summary of the data (i.e., the minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, and maximum

5. The range of the data and the inter-quartile range of the data, together with a brief discussion of exactly what the inter-quartile range represents for this dataset.

6. The following probability calculations, including reasoning. Suppose we select one census metropolitan area at random from the sample of 20. What is the probability that it has a single detached house median value greater than $500k?

7. Suppose we select one census metropolitan area at random from the sample of 20. What is the probability that it has a single detached house median value greater than $500k or less than $200k? (2) Suppose we select two census metropolitan areas at random from the sample of 20. What is the probability that both have a single detached house median value greater than $500k?
