Talbot Industries manufactures two models of wireless headset: TI-12 and TI-28. Each product requires time on a single machine. The machine has a monthly capacity of 540 hours. Total market demand for the two products is limited to 2,000 units of TI-12 and 1,000 units of TI-28 monthly. Talbot is currently producing and selling 1,500 TI-12 models and 780 TI-28 models each month. Cost and machine-usage data for the two products are shown in the following spreadsheet, which analysts at Talbot use for production planning purposes: Price Less variable costs per unit Material Labor Overhead Contribution margin per unit Fixed costs Manufacturing Marketing and administrative Machine hours per unit Machine hours used Machine hours available Quantity produced Maximum demand Profit Required A Required B TI-12 Model TI-28 Model TI-12 $ 80 23 29 8 $ 20 units units 0.1
Waterways mass-produces a special connector unit that it normally sells for $3.60. It sells approximately 31,700 of these units each year. The variable costs for each unit are $2.10. A company in Canada that has been unable to produce enough of a similar connector to meet customer demand would like to buy 16,500 of these units at $2.40 per unit. The production of these units is near full capacity at Waterways, so to accept the offer from the Canadian company would require temporarily adding another shift to its production line. To do this would increase variable manufacturing costs by $0.30 per unit. However, variable selling costs would be reduced by $0.20 a unit.An irrigation company has asked for a special order of 2,100 of the connectors. To meet this special order, Waterways would not need an additional shift, and the irrigation company is willing to pay $3.00 per unit.

Adams currently is purchasing 100,000 units from an outside supplier for $78.40 per unit. Jefferson is currently operating at full capacity of 900,000 units and has variable costs of $46.40 per unit. The full cost to manufacture the unit is $59.20. Jefferson currently sells 900,000 units at a selling price of $86.40 per unit. Required: 1.

It will not have to pay any sales commission on the special order, so the variable selling and administrative costs would be only $45 per tent. The special order would have no effect on total fixed costs. The company has rejected the offer based on the following computations: Selling price per case $ 600 Variable manufacturing costs 440 Fixed manufacturing costs 90 Variable selling and administrative costs 45 Fixed selling and…
