Evergreen Plastics Ltd. worked on 600 units during a production period. Out of these: • • • . 540 good units were completed Normal spoilage = 35 units Abnormal spoilage = 25 units Total production costs = $2,700 The company accounts for abnormal spoilage separately as a loss on the income statement. Normal spoilage is included in the cost of good units. What is the cost assigned to the good units produced?

Assume 550 units were worked on during a period in which a total of 500 good units were completed. Normal spoilage consisted of 30 units; abnormal spoilage, 20 units. Total production costs were $2,200. The company accounts for abnormal spoilage separately on the income statement as loss due to abnormal spoilage. Normal spoilage is not accounted for separately. What is the cost of the good units produced?
A company makes one product which passes through only one process. The details of the process account are as follows; material cost- 20000kg @ GH¢1.3/kg, labour cost- GH¢12000, and production overheads- GH¢5700. The actual output from the process is 18800kg with expected normal loss of 5% of input. The value of abnormal loss isA. GH¢460B. GH¢441C. GH¢456D. GH¢437
Stahman, Inc., estimates its hidden external failure costs using the Taguchi loss function. Stahlman produces plastic sheets that vary in thickness and grade. For one of its large-volume products, it was determined that k = 30,000 and T = 0.28 inches in diameter. A sample of four units produced the following values: Required: 1. Calculate the average loss per unit. 2. Assuming that 100,000 units were produced, what is the total hidden cost? 3. Assume that the multiplier for Stahmans hidden external failure costs is six. What are the measured external costs? Explain the difference between measured costs and hidden costs.
Verde Company reported operating costs of 50,000,000 as of December 31, 20x5, with the following environmental costs: Required: 1. Prepare an environmental cost report, classifying costs by quality category and expressing each as a percentage of total operating costs. What is the message of this report? 2. Prepare a pie chart that shows the relative distribution of environmental costs by category. What does this report tell you? 3. What if Verde deliberately did not include the cost of damaging the ecosystem because of solid waste disposal in its environmental cost report? Offer possible reasons for this decision. If consciously avoided, is this decision unethical?
Using the Taguchi quality loss function, an average loss of 20 per unit is calculated. During the year, 25,000 units were produced. Which of the following statements represents the correct application of the Taguchi loss function? a. The hidden costs of internal failure are 500,000. b. The hidden costs of external failure are 500,000. c. The costs of detection activities are 20 per unit inspected. d. The total external costs are 500,000.
R makes one product, which passes through a single process. Details of the process account for period 1 were as follows: Material cost – 20,000 kg P26,000 Labour cost P12,000 Production overhead cost P5,700 Output 18,800 kg Normal losses 5% of input There was no work-in-progress at the beginning or end of the period. Process losses have no value. The cost of the abnormal loss (to the nearest P) is
Crane Company has decided to introduce a new product that can be manufactured by either a capital-intensive method or a labour-intensive method. The manufacturing method will not affect the quality of the product. The estimated manufacturing costs under the two methods are as follows: Direct materials Direct labour Variable overhead Fixed manufacturing costs Capital-Intensive $10.00 per unit $12.00 per unit $6.00 per unit $2,624,960 Labour-Intensive $11.00 per unit $16.00 per unit $9.00 per unit $1,612,000 Crane's market research department has recommended an introductory unit sales price of $64. The incremental selling expenses are estimated to be $522,080 annually, plus $4 for each unit sold, regardless of the manufacturing method.

Pharoah Company manufactured 6,720 units of a component part that is used in its product and incurred the following costs: Direct materials $39,200 Direct labor 16,800 Variable manufacturing overhead 11,200 Fixed manufacturing overhead 22,400 $89,600 Another company has offered to sell the same component part to the company for $13 per unit. The fixed manufacturing overhead consists mainly of depreciation on the equipment used to manufacture the part and would not be reduced if the component part was purchased from the outside firm. If the component part is purchased from the outside firm, Pharoah Company has the opportunity to use the factory equipment to produce another product which is estimated to have a contribution margin of $24,640.Prepare an incremental analysis report for Pharoah Company which can serve as informational input into this make or buy decision.
Carla Vista Company has decided to introduce a new product that can be manufactured by either a capital-intensive method or a labour-intensive method. The manufacturing method will not affect the quality of the product. The estimated manufacturing costs under the two methods are as follows: Capital-Intensive Labour-Intensive Direct materials $5.50 per unit $10.75 per unit Direct labour $4.00 per unit $9.00 per unit Variable overhead $3.50 per unit $7.25 per unit Fixed manufacturing costs $2,423,040 $1,488,000 Carla Vista's market research department has recommended an introductory unit sales price of $32. The incremental selling expenses are estimated to be $481,920 annually, plus $2 for each unit sold, regardless of the manufacturing method. (a) * Your answer is incorrect. Calculate the estimated break-even point in annual unit sales of the new product if Carla Vista Company uses (1) the capital- intensive manufacturing method, or (2) the labour-intensive manufacturing method.
