During a Skype session with Tom and Tony, you mention that your current cost model in accounting is break-even analysis. They are not following your explanation, but they say they will swing by with some cookies for a discussion. More cookies! This is paying off, except for those extra pounds.

Selling price to Juicy Cookies at $10 per tin. The cost is $8 per tin, which includes $6 of direct material and $1.50 of direct labor. Annual manufacturing overhead is estimated at $100,000 for the expected sales of 200,000 tins. Operating expenses are projected to be $80,000 annually.

After looking over the costs for manufacturing overhead and operating expenses, you approximate that 85% of manufacturing overhead and 20% of operating expenses are variable costs.

1. What is the TOTAL fixed cost?

2. What is the TOTAL variable cost?

3. What is the contribution margin per UNIT? (Do not round.)

4. How many units are necessary to reach break-even? (Always round up to the next unit for break-even, since you cannot sell a partial unit.)

5. Tony is concerned that they will not be able to sell 200,000 tins of cookies. Given 200,000 tins as their expected sales level, what is the decrease of total sales dollars that they endure before they incur a net loss?

Special-Order Decision, Traditional Analysis, Qualitative Aspects

Feinan Sports, Inc., manufactures sporting equipment, including weight-lifting gloves. A national sporting goods chain recently submitted a special order for 5,000 pairs of weight-lifting gloves. Feinan Sports was not operating at capacity and could use the extra business. Unfortunately, the order’s offering price of $12.70 per pair was below the cost to produce them. The controller was opposed to taking a loss on the deal. However, the personnel manager argued in favor of accepting the order even though a loss would be incurred; it would avoid the problem of layoffs and would help maintain the community image of the company. The full cost to produce a pair of weight-lifting gloves is presented below.

Direct materials   $7.40
Direct labor   3.80
Variable overhead   1.60
Fixed overhead   3.10
Total   $15.90
No variable selling or administrative expenses would be associated with the order. Non-unit-level activity costs are a small percentage of total costs and are therefore not considered.

1. Assume that the company would accept the order only if it increased total profits. Should the company accept or reject the order?

Provide supporting computations. If required, round your answers to the nearest cent. Enter a loss as a negative amount.

Incremental cost per pair   fill in the blank 3

2. Suppose that Feinan Sports has negotiated with the potential customer, and has determined that it can substitute cheaper materials, reducing direct materials cost by $0.80 per unit. In addition, the company’s engineers have found a way to reduce direct labor cost by $0.40 per unit. Should the company accept or reject the order?

Provide supporting computations. If required, round your answers to the nearest cent. Enter a loss as a negative amount.

Bags​ (PB) is a designer of​ high-quality backpacks and purses. Each design is made in small batches. Each​ spring, PB comes out with new designs for the backpack and the purse. The company uses these designs for a year and then moves on to the next trend. The bags are all made on the same fabrication equipment that is expected to operate at capacity. The equipment must be switched over to a new design and set up to prepare for the production of each new batch of products. When​ completed, each batch of products is immediately shipped to a wholesaler. Shipping costs vary with the number of shipments. Budgeted information for the year is as​ follows:
