Clearview Window Company manufactures windows for the home-building industry. The window frames are produced in the Frame Division. The frames are then transferred to the Glass Division, where the glass and hardware are installed. The company’s best-selling product is a three-by-four-foot, doublepaned operable window.

The Frame Division also can sell frames directly to custom home builders, who install the glass and hardware. The sales price for a frame is $190. The Glass Division sells its finished windows for $430. The markets for both frames and finished windows exhibit perfect competition.

The standard variable cost of the window is detailed as follows:

*Not including the transfer price for the frame.

2-a. Assume that there is excess capacity in the Frame Division. Use the general rule to compute the transfer price for window frames.

2-c. Suppose the predetermined fixed-overhead rate in the Frame Division is 120 percent of direct-labor cost. Calculate the transfer price if it is based on standard full cost plus a 10 percent markup.

2-d. The Glass Division has been approached by the U.S. Army with a special order for 1,500 windows at $380. Assume the transfer price established in requirement 2-c. above is being used.

i.What is the incremental contribution (loss) per window for Clearview Window Company as a whole if this special order is accepted?

ii.From the perspective of Clearview Window Company as a whole, should the special order be accepted or rejected?

2-e. The Glass Division has been approached by the U.S. Army with a special order for 1,500 windows at $380. Assume the transfer price established in requirement 2-c. above is being used.

i. What is the incremental contribution (loss) per window for the Glass Division if this special order is accepted?

ii.Will an autonomous Glass Division manager accept or reject the special order?

1. One of the biggest news stories of the past few months is the outbreak of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus), first in China and then throughout the world. Numerous pharmaceutical companies have begun to develop COVID-19 vaccines. If all goes well, it will be at least a year before a vaccine is developed, tested, and approved by the FDA. However, one company—Moderna Therapeutics—has beaten all of the other companies in the race so far and is the first to advance to Phase 1 clinical trials.

Suppose that Moderna is the first company to gain approval for a COVID-19 vaccine in the United States. The monthly demand for COVID-19 vaccines in the U.S. is Q = 16 – (P/6) where Q is measured in millions of vials and P is measured in dollars. Moderna’s total cost of producing Q vials of vaccine is 2Q² and Moderna’s marginal cost is 4Q.

1.A As the only company allowed to sell COVID-19 vaccines in the U.S., what price would Moderna charge for its vaccine to maximize profit? How many vials of vaccine would Moderna sell each month? What are Moderna’s monthly profits from the sale of COVID-19 vaccine?

1.B How many vials of vaccine would be produced and what price per vial would be charged if this were a perfectly competitive market?

1.C (Vaccines, like the COVID-19 vaccine being developed by Moderna, provide benefits beyond the benefits received by those vaccinated. For instance, as more people are vaccinated, the odds of disease transmission to vulnerable groups who cannot be vaccinated (e.g., infants) are reduced. Suppose the marginal social benefit of the COVID-19 vaccine is 110 – 6Q, which is greater than the marginal private benefit. Given this, what role do you think the federal government should play in vaccine development, if any, beyond the determination of safety and effectiveness associated with vaccine approval?
