Exercise 11-10 (Algo) Make or Buy Decision [LO11-3] Futura Company purchases the 75,000 starters that it installs in its standard line of farm tractors from a supplier for the price of $11.80 per unit. Due to a reduction in output, the company now has idle capacity that could be used to produce the starters rather than buying them from an outside supplier. However, the company's chief engineer is opposed to making the starters because the production cost per unit is $12.60 as shown below Direct materials Direct labor Supervision Depreciation Variable manufacturing overhead Rent Total product cost Per Unit $6.00 2.50 1.60 1.20 0.80 0.50 $12.60 Total $ 120,000 $ 90,000 $ 37,500 If Futura decides to make the starters, a supervisor would have to be hired (at a salary of $120,000) to oversee production. However, the company has sufficient idle tools and machinery such that no new equipment would have to be purchased. The rent charge above is based on space utilized in the plant. The total rent on the plant is $89,000 per period Depreciation is due to obsolescence rather

Applying Differential Analysis to Equipment Replacement Decision TaylorMade - Adidas Golf Company a subsidiary of Adidas, manufactures golf clubs using "adjustable weight technology" or AWT. Suppose a European machine company has proposed to sell TaylorMade a new highly automated machine that would reduce significantly the labor cost of producing its golf clubs. The cost of the machine is $ 7,800,000, and would have an expected life of six years, at the end of which it would have a residual value of 10% of its original cost. The machine has an estimated operating cost of $39,000 per month. The direct labor cost savings per club from using the machine is estimated to be $16 per club, per month. In addition, other fixed overhead costs of $20,800 per month would be eliminated if the new machine is purchased. Also, the new machine would free up about 13,000 square feet of space from the displaced workers. Assume TaylorMade's building is held under a 10-year lease that has eight years…

Please do your own work, don't copy from the internet Q1) Break-even analysis (LO2) Eaton Tool Company has fixed costs of $255,000, sells its units for $66, and has variable costs of $36 per unit. Compute the break-even point. Ms. Eaton comes up with a new plan to cut fixed costs to $200,000. However, more labor will now be required, which will increase variable costs per unit to $39. The sales price will remain at $66. What is the new break-even point? Under the new plan, what is likely to happen to profitability at very high volume levels (compared to the old plan)?

Exercise 13-13 (Algo) Sell or Process Further Decision [LO13-7] Wexpro, Incorporated, produces several products from processing 1 ton of clypton, a rare mineral. Material and processing costs total $69,000 per ton, one-fourth of which is allocated to product X15. Seven thousand five hundred units of product X15 are produced from each ton of clypton. The units can either be sold at the split-off point for $12 each, or processed further at a total cost of $9,200 and then sold for $18 each. Required: 1. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of further processing product X15? 2. Should product X15 be processed further or sold at the split-off point?
Problem 3-63 (Algo) CVP, Operating Leverage, and Margin of Safety (LO 3-1, 2, 4) Maryland Manufacturing (M2) produces a part using an expensive proprietary machine that can only be leased. The leasing company offers two contracts. The first (unit-rate lease) is one where M2 would pay $20 per unit produced, regardless of the number of units. The second lease option (flat-rate lease) is one where M2 would pay $450,000 annually, regardless of the number produced. The lease will run one year and the lease option chosen cannot be changed during the lease. All other lease terms are the same. M2 sells the part for $218 per unit and unit variable cost (excluding any machine lease costs) are $118. Annual fixed costs (excluding any machine lease costs) are $1,458,000. Required: a. What is the annual break-even level assuming 1. The unit-rate lease? 2. The flat-rate lease? b. At what annual volume would the operating profit be the same regardless of the royalty option chosen? c. Suppose M2 is…

Problem 5 - 19 (Algo) Break - Even Analysis; Pricing [LO5 - 1, LO5 - 4, LO5-5] Last year Anthony Fauci Ltd. introduced a new product and sold 25, 300 units of it at a price of $94 per unit. The product's variable expenses are $64 per unit and its fixed expenses are $837,300 per year. Required: 1. What was this product's net operating income (loss) last year? 2. What is the product's break - even point in unit sales and dollar sales? 3. Assume the company has conducted a marketing study that estimates it can increase annual sales of this product by 5,000 units for each $2 reduction in its selling price. If the company will only consider price reductions in increments of $2 (e.g., $68, $66, etc.), what is the maximum annual profit that it can earn on this product? What sales volume and selling price per unit generate the maximum profit? 4. What would be the break - even point in unit sales and in dollar sales using the selling price that you determined in requirement 3?
