Kaelea, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $125,000. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $10,400 if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be 20 percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be 35 percent lower. Kaelea is considering a $42,000 debt issue with an interest rate of 6 percent. The proceeds will be used to repurchase shares of stock. There are currently 6,250 shares outstanding. Assume Kaelea has a market-to-book ratio of 1.0.

Siegel Company manufactures a product that is available in both a deluxe model and a regular model. The company has manufactured the regular model for years. The deluxe model was introduced several years ago to tap a new segment of the market. Since introduction of the deluxe model, the company’s profits have steadily declined and management has become increasingly concerned about the accuracy of its costing system. Sales of the deluxe model have been increasing rapidly.

Manufacturing overhead is assigned to products on the basis of direct labor-hours. For the current year, the company has estimated that it will incur $5,503,800 in manufacturing overhead cost and produce 15,000 units of the deluxe model and 112,000 units of the regular model. The deluxe model requires 1.0 hours of direct labor time per unit, and the regular model requires 0.5 hour. Material and labor costs per unit are as follows:

    Model
    Deluxe   Regular
Direct materials   $   145      $   116     
Direct labor   $   10      $   11     


Required:

1-a. Using direct labor-hours as the base for assigning manufacturing overhead cost to products, compute the predetermined overhead rate.

1-b. Using the predetermined overhead rate computed in 1-a above and other data from the problem, determine the unit product cost of each model.

2. Management is considering using activity-based absorption costing to apply manufacturing overhead cost to products. The activity-based system would have the following four activity cost pools:

Activity Cost Pool   Activity Measure   Estimated Overhead Cost
Purchasing   Purchase orders issued   $   352,800
Processing   Machine-hours      3,210,000
Scrap/rework   Scrap/rework orders issued      459,000
Shipping   Number of shipments      1,482,000
       $   5,503,800

   
Expected Activity

Activity Measure   Deluxe   Regular   Total
Purchase orders issued   490   980   1,470
Machine-hours   21,400   32,100   53,500
Scrap/rework orders issued   375   300   675
Number of shipments   6,240   9,360   15,600

Determine the predetermined overhead rate for each of the four activity cost pools.

3. Using the predetermined overhead rates you computed in part (2), do the following:

a. Compute the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost that would be applied to each model using the activity-based absorption costing system. After these totals have been computed, determine the amount of manufacturing overhead cost per unit of each model.

b. Compute the unit product cost of each model (direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead).

One of the olf columns in your plant failed. You have been putting together jury-rigged system to separate propane fron n-butane. The column you have found is empty, so within reason you can put in as many stages as needed. It is equipped with a partial condenser and a total reboiler. The column is restricted to a maximum pressure of 800,0 kPa, which means that refrigerator is needed. You have a source of refrigerator, but output is limited to 6000.0 kW. Freed is a saturated liquid at 800.0 kPa that is 56.0 mol% propane. Unless stated otherwise distillate should be 99.9 mol% propane, and bottoms should be 1.0 mol% propane or less. You have more feed available that can be processed.

a) generate a y-x graph at 800.0 kPa from the DePriester chart. From the depriester chart find the boiling points of propane at 800.0 kPa (set Kp=1) and n-butane at 800.0 kPa (set K(n-b)=1). The boiling range for the complete y-x diagram lies between these two temperature. Pick a temperature between the two boiling points, find Kp and K(n-b), calculate X(n-b)=(Kp-1)/(Kp-Kb), Xp=1-X(n-b), and Y(n-b)-K(n-b)X(n-b). Doing this for five to ten temperatures generates the y-x graph.

b) if you built a system with a very large number of stages (like N greater than 100) estimate the kmol/h of 99.9mol% distillate that can be produced and kmol/h of feed processed (bottoms less or equal to 1 mol% propane).

c) Repeat part b for 90.0mol% pure propane distillate and 1% or less propane in the bottoms for a saturated liquid feed.

d) if the required purity of the bottoms stream is changed to 10.0 mol% propane, repeat part b (distillate is 99.9% mol% propane).

e) repeat part b for a 99.9 mol% pure propane distillate and 1% or less propane in the bottoms if the feed is a saturated vapor that is 56.0 mol% propane.

f) epeat part b for a 99.9 mol% pure propane distillate and 1% or less propane in the bottoms if the feed is a saturated vapor that is 66.0 mol% propane.

Data: Heat of vaporization of propane at 800 kPa is 18,800 KJ/Kmol, and for butane at 800 kPa is 22,600 KJ/Kmol

For the current year, the company has estimated that it will incur $6,758,325 in manufacturing overhead cost and produce 20,000 units of the deluxe model and 124,000 units of the regular model. The deluxe model requires 1.0 hours of direct labor time per unit, and the regular model requires 0.5 hour. Material and labor costs per unit are as follows:
