1. A company is trying to decide between making or buying a component in one of their products. The fixed and variable costs for both options are given below:

Cost                                                           Make Option                                  Buy Option

Fixed Cost                                                   $25000                                             $3000

Variable Cost                                                 $8                                                     $12

a. Find the break-even quantity and the total cost at the break-even point.

b. If the requirement is 4,500 units, is it more cost-effective for the firm to buy or make the components? What is the cost savings for choosing the cheaper option?

c. If the requirement is 6,000 units, is it more cost-effective for the firm to buy or make the components? What is the cost savings for choosing the cheaper option?

Baird Manufacturing Company was started on January 1, 2018, when it acquired $83,000 cash by issuing common stock. Baird immediately purchased office furniture and manufacturing equipment costing $9,100 and $35,900, respectively. The office furniture had an eight-year useful life and a zero salvage value. The manufacturing equipment had a $3,900 salvage value and an expected useful life of four years. The company paid $11,500 for salaries of administrative personnel and $15,700 for wages to production personnel. Finally, the company paid $12,640 for raw materials that were used to make inventory. All inventory was started and completed during the year. Baird completed production on 4,600 units of product and sold 3,680 units at a price of $15 each in 2018. (Assume that all transactions are cash transactions and that product costs are computed in accordance with GAAP.)

Schultz Electronics manufactures two ultra high-definition television models: the Royale which sells for $1,480, and a new model, the Majestic, which sells for $1,270. The production cost computed per unit under traditional costing for each model in 2017 was as follows.

In 2017, Schultz manufactured 25,000 units of the Royale and 10,000 units of the Majestic. The overhead rate of $42 per direct labor hour was determined by dividing total expected manufacturing overhead of $8,449,220 by the total direct labor hours (200,000) for the two models.

Under traditional costing, the gross profit on the models was Royale $458 ($1,480 – $1,022) and Majestic $540 ($1,270 – $730). Because of this difference, management is considering phasing out the Royale model and increasing the production of the Majestic model.

Before finalizing its decision, management asks Schultz’s controller to prepare an analysis using activity-based costing (ABC). The controller accumulates the following information about overhead for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The cost drivers used for each product were:

Please answer all parts in detail. Thank you.

Q1. Betty bakes and sells bagels all year round. Betty plans and manages inventories of paper take-out bags with her logo printed on them. Daily demand for take-out bags is normally distributed with a mean of 90 bags and a standard deviation of 30 bags. Betty’s printer charges her $10 per order for print setup independent of order size. Bags are printed at 5 cents ($0.05) each bag. It takes 4 days for an order to be printed and delivered. Betty has a storage room big enough to hold all reasonable quantities of bags. The holding cost is estimated to be 25% per year. Assume 360 days per year. (Use the H= i × C formula to compute the annual holding cost).

(a) What is the optimal order quantity per order for Betty?

(b) How many times per year does Betty need to order?

(c) How many days will elapse between two consecutive orders?

(d) What is Betty’s total annual inventory-related cost (cost of placing orders and carrying inventory)?  

(e) What is the total cost per bag?

(f) What is Betty’s monthly inventory turns?

(g) If Betty wants to make sure the bags do not run out with 99% probability during the order lead time, what is her optimal reorder point? (Use z=2.33 for 99% service level)

(h) If Betty’s printer charges her $12 per order irrespective of order size, what is the total annual inventory-related costs per bag?

(i) (Bonus) Assume that the print cost can be reduced to 3 cents per bag if Betty prints 9000 bags or more at a time. If Betty is interested in minimizing her total cost (i.e., purchase and inventory-related costs), should she begin printing 9000 or more bags at a time?

Problem 19-01

Management believes it can sell a new product for $8.50. The fixed costs of production are estimated to be $5,500, and the variable costs are $3.50 a unit.

1. Complete the following table at the given levels of output and the relationships between quantity and fixed costs, quantity and variable costs, and quantity and total costs. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Enter zero if necessary. Use a minus sign to enter losses, if any.

   Quantity		Total Revenue	Variable Costs	Fixed Costs	Total Costs	Profits (Losses)
   0		$	$	$	$	$
   500		$	$	$	$	$
   1,000		$	$	$	$	$
   1,500		$	$	$	$	$
   2,000		$	$	$	$	$
   2,500		$	$	$	$	$
   3,000		$	$	$	$	$

2. Determine the break-even level using the above table and use the Exhibit 19.5 to confirm the break-even level of output. Round your answers for the break-even level to the nearest whole number. Round your answers for the fixed costs, variable costs, total costs, and profits (losses) to the nearest dollar. Enter zero if necessary. Use a minus sign to enter losses, if any.

   Quantity	Total Revenue	Variable Costs	Fixed Costs	Total Costs	Profits (Losses)
   	$	$	$	$	$

3. What would happen to the total revenue schedule, the total cost schedule, and the break-even level of output if management determined that fixed costs would be $7,500 instead of $5,500? Round your answer for the break-even level of output to the nearest whole number.

   If fixed costs were $7,500 instead of $5,500 the total revenue schedule does not change and the total cost schedule increases.

   The new break-even level of output is   units.

Match the definition with the correct term.

1. Consider a Perfectly Competitive market where the demand is given by P = 6000 – 4Q and the supply is given by P = Q.

a. Calculate the equilibrium price, quantity, total Consumer Surplus, and total Producer Surplus. Show all calculations.

b. Suppose this market now is controlled by a single-price monopolist whose marginal cost function is MC = Q. Determine this firm’s marginal revenue function, then calculate its profit-maximizing quantity, price, the total Consumer Surplus, and the total Producer Surplus. Show all calculations.
