Jimmy Lube is a 3-bay Oil and Lube garage in London Ontario. Jimmy Noborsky, the owner of Jimmy Lube is contemplating on whether he should offer economical oil change, which requires him to use refined motor oil. This type motor oil is produced in Sarnia Ontario and supplied by small petro companies that refine the pre-used motor oil and mix it with petro-additives for enhanced viscosity. Jimmy is very concerned about supply disruptions, so he has chosen to use three suppliers no matter what. He has two options. For option 1, the suppliers are well established and located in the Petrolia. Jimmy calculated the “unique event, namely 402 snow-closure” risk for each of them to be 4%. He estimates the probability of a regional economic event that would knock out all three suppliers to be 2.5%. For option 2, the suppliers are newer but located in three different regions. Jimmy calculates the “unique event” risk for each of them to be 20%. He estimates the “super-event” probability that would knock out all three of these suppliers to be 0.4%. Purchasing and transportation costs would be $1 000 000 per year using option 1 and $1 010 000 per year using option 2. A total disruption would create an annualized loss of $500 000 for his garage.

Jim has also been experiencing breakdowns of the hoists in his garage for the past couple of years as shown in the table below.

Each time a hoist breaks down, the garage loses about $2,000. If Jimmy implements preventive maintenance, he will be able to reduce the number of breakdowns to one per month. Preventive maintenance costs would be $500 a month. The maintenance mechanic offers him a deal that for the next 3 years any breakdowns will be covered, so long as the mechanic can come in every month to do preventative maintenance for which Jimmy would have to pay $50. 30

To make the right decisions Jimmy has asked for your help by answering the following questions:

1. What is the probability that all three suppliers will be disrupted using option 2? (5marks)
2. What is the total annual purchasing and transportation cost plus expected annualized disruption cost for option 1? (5marks)
3. What is the total annual purchasing and transportation cost plus expected annualized disruption cost for option 2? (5marks)
4. Which option is best and why? (5marks)
5. Is preventive maintenance a cost-effective option? (7marks)
6. If Jimmy predict the likelihood of a breakdown being 25% without the maintenance, how much must a breakdown cost for him to prefer the preventative maintenance? (8marks)

Hi-Tek Manufacturing, Inc., makes two types of industrial component parts—the B300 and the T500. An absorption costing income statement for the most recent period is shown: Hi-Tek Manufacturing Inc. Income Statement Sales $ 1,712,000 Cost of goods sold 1,234,045 Gross margin 477,955 Selling and administrative expenses 590,000 Net operating loss $ (112,045 ) Hi-Tek produced and sold 60,400 units of B300 at a price of $20 per unit and 12,600 units of T500 at a price of $40 per unit. The company’s traditional cost system allocates manufacturing overhead to products using a plantwide overhead rate and direct labor dollars as the allocation base. Additional information relating to the company’s two product lines is shown below: B300 T500 Total Direct materials $ 400,600 $ 162,700 $ 563,300 Direct labor $ 120,200 $ 42,400 162,600 Manufacturing overhead 508,145 Cost of goods sold $ 1,234,045 The company has created an activity-based costing system to evaluate the profitability of its products. Hi-Tek’s ABC implementation team concluded that $52,000 and $102,000 of the company’s advertising expenses could be directly traced to B300 and T500, respectively. The remainder of the selling and administrative expenses was organization-sustaining in nature. The ABC team also distributed the company’s manufacturing overhead to four activities as shown below: Manufacturing Overhead Activity Activity Cost Pool (and Activity Measure) B300 T500 Total Machining (machine-hours) $ 207,225 90,900 62,600 153,500 Setups (setup hours) 139,020 71 260 331 Product-sustaining (number of products) 101,600 1 1 2 Other (organization-sustaining costs) 60,300 NA NA NA Total manufacturing overhead cost $ 508,145 Required:

1. Compute the product margins for the B300 and T500 under the company’s traditional costing system.

2. Compute the product margins for B300 and T500 under the activity-based costing system.

3. Prepare a quantitative comparison of the traditional and activity-based cost assignments.
