A manufacturing company employs job order costing to account for its costs. There are two production departments, and separate departmental overhead application rates are employed because the operations of the departments are distinct. All jobs generally pass through both production departments. Data regarding the hourly direct labor rates, overhead application rates, and three jobs on which work was done during the month appear below. Job 101 and Job 102 were completed during the current month. (CIA Examination adapted)

Assume that a bus company increased costs and fears that it will
make a loss. What should it do, if to rise the fares may be a wrong
policy.
To help it decide what to do it commissions a survey to estimate
passenger demand at three different fares: the current face of 10c
per km, a higher fare of 12c per km, and a lower fare of 8c. The
results of the survey are shown in the first two columns:
| Fares | Estimated Demand | Total Revenue | Old total cost | New total cost | ||||
| 8 | 6 | 480000 | 360000 | 440000 | ||||
| 10 | 4 | 400000 | 360000 | 440000 | ||||
| 12 | 3 | 360000 | 360000 | 440000 | ||||
Demand turns to be elastic. TR can be increased by reducing the price from current 10 to 8$.
What will happen to the company profits? Its profit is the difference between the total revenue from passengers and its total costs of operating the service. If buses are currently under-utilised , then is possible that the extra passengers can be carried without the need for extra buses with no extra cost..
At the fare of 10c , old profit was 40000. After the rase, a 10c now gives a loss of 40.000$. By raising the fare to 12c- loss increased to 80000$.
Questions:
1) Estimate the price elasticity of demand between 8c and 10c and between 10c and 12c. Show all detailed calculations.
2) 10c fare the best fare originally? Explain your answer detailed.
3) If the company considers lowering the fare to 6c and estimates the demand will be 8.5 million passenger km. What is your opinion, it is good idea? How should it decide?
