Cantor Beverages produces bottled vegan smoothies. As part of the process, Cantor prepares and prints the labels used on the bottles. An outside supplier would provide Cantor with 20,000 pre-printed labels for $5.00 per label. Cantor estimates the company's current average cost of a label is $3.75 based upon the following information: Total cost Direct material $ 30,000 Direct labor $ 12,500 Variable overhead $ 18,750 Fixed overhead - Traceable $ 25,000 Fixed overhead - Allocated $ 7,500 $ 93,750 Outsourcing the labeling department will eliminate 80% of the Fixed overhead - Traceable expenses. Cantor expects to rent the space now available in its facility. For net income to remain constant, compute the MINIMUM rent Cantor would charge a tenant. HINT: Benefits = Costs results in no change in income. O $5,000 O $12,000 O $31,000 O $40,000 O None of the other answers are correct

Scorpio makes premium bikes using two departments, assembly and painting. Assembly estimates using 868,000 machine hours and painting uses 41,000 machine hours. Fixed manufacturing overhead costs are estimated to be $10,000,000 for assembly and $751,000 for painting. Variable manufacturing overhead per machine hour is $11.5 in both departments. Machine hours are used as the allocation base for a plantwide predetermined manufacturing overhead application rate. A bike dealership shop places an order for 20 bikes. The order requires 1,030 machine hours in assembly and 105 machine hours in painting. The job also requires $54,000 of direct materials and $108,000 of direct labor. What is the unit product cost (per bike) for the job when Scorpio uses a plantwide approach to calculating its predetermined manufacturing overhead application rate? Round your answer to 2 d.p. Do not round intermediary calculations.
