During Heaton Company’s first two years of operations, it reported absorption costing net operating income as follows:

Year 1 Year 2
Sales (@ $61 per unit) $ 1,037,000 $ 1,647,000
Cost of goods sold (@ $40 per unit) 680,000 1,080,000
Gross margin 357,000 567,000
Selling and administrative expenses* 298,000 328,000
Net operating income $ \59,000\ $ 239,000

* $3 per unit variable; $247,000 fixed each year.

The company’s $40 unit product cost is computed as follows:

Direct materials $ 10
Direct labor 11
Variable manufacturing overhead 2
Fixed manufacturing overhead ($374,000 ÷ 22,000 units) 17
Absorption costing unit product cost $ 40

Forty percent of fixed manufacturing overhead consists of wages and salaries; the remainder consists of depreciation charges on production equipment and buildings.

Production and cost data for the first two years of operatons are:

Year 1 Year 2
Units produced 22,000 22,000
Units sold 17,000 27,000

Required:

1. Using variable costing, what is the unit product cost for both years?

2. What is the variable costing net operating income in Year 1 and in Year 2?

3. Reconcile the absorption costing and the variable costing net operating income figures for each year.

(b) Check Requirements: What distribution does the sample test statistic follow? Explain.

The Student's t. The number of trials is sufficiently large. The standard normal. We assume the population distributions are approximately normal.     The Student's t. We assume the population distributions are approximately normal. The standard normal. The number of trials is sufficiently large.

Suppose there exist 2 countries, Home and Foreign; 2 goods, X and Y; and 2 factors of production, labor (L) and capital (K). Each country can produce both goods. X is labor-intensive and Y is capital-intensive. Home is labor-abundant and Foreign is capital-abundant. Assume that the standard assumptions of the Heckscher-Ohlin model hold. When answering the following question, please support each of your arguments with detailed analysis and draw the relevant diagrams to support your answer.

Consider a move from autarky to free trade between the two countries in both goods. Identify which group of people (laborers or owners of capital) gain and which lose in Home from the move from autarky to free trade. Discuss clearly how the assumptions of the model lead to this result.

In this assignment you’ll solve the basic economic order quantity (EOQ) model in Excel using two methods: (A) a trial-and-error approach to find a very good but approximate answer, and (B) the EOQ formula to find the “exact” answer. Set up your spreadsheet similar to that shown below.

The situation: Roxie is responsible for purchasing the paper used in all copiers and laser printers at Budco. After looking at her records, Roxie has found that demand for paper averages 600 boxes per month. The price of a box of paper is $20 (regardless of the number ordered). Placing and handling an order costs $66. Annual unit holding costs per box are 25% of the unit price. Last year, Roxie ordered paper once every two months, but she wants to know if another ordering policy would be cheaper.

  1. Trial-and-Error (Approximate) Method

  • Order Quantity: type in 25 for cell A10; then use the formula =25+A10 for cell A11 and copy this formula down, until Q reaches 1200.
  • Annual Ordering Costs (DS/Q): for cell B10, use =$B$1*$B$3/A10; then copy formula down.
  • Annual Holding Costs (HQ/2): for cell C10, use =$B$4*A10/2; then copy formula down.
  • Annual Ordering + Holding Costs: for cell D10, use =B10+C10; then copy formula down.

Make a scatter (XY) chart of the Annual Ordering + Holding Costs (y-axis) vs. Order Quantity (x-axis).

  1. EOQ (Exact) Formula

  • Find the optimal order quantity Q* in cell E5 using the EOQ formula discussed in lecture and Ch. 12 of the text. You can find the square root of x in Excel with the function SQRT(x). In your E5 and F5 cell formulas you should reference other cells that contain the relevant data rather than typing the numbers themselves into the cell formula.
