Wilma Company must decide whether to make or buy some of its components. The costs of producing 60,000 switches for its generators are as follows. Direct materials $30,000 Variable overhead $45,000 Direct labor $42,000 Fixed overhead $60,000 Instead of making the switches at an average cost of $2.95 ($177,000 ÷ 60,000), the company has an opportunity to buy the switches at $2.7 per unit. If the company purchases the switches, all the variable costs and one-fourth of the fixed costs will be eliminated. (a) Prepare an incremental analysis showing whether the company should make or buy the switches.

HASF Glassworks makes glass flanges for scientific use Material cost Rs.10 per flange and the glass blowers are paid a wage rate of 100 per hours a glass blower blows 20 flanges in two hours. Fixed manufacturing costs for flanges are 25000 per period. other non-manufacturing cost associated with flanges are 10,000 per period and are fixed. Required: Find out variable cost per units and total fixed cost. Assume Company manufactures and sells 10,000 flanges this period their competitor sells flanges for 15 each. can company sell below competitor price and make a profit on the flanges How would be your answer to requirement 2 differ if company made and sold 20,000 flanges this period why
Sunland has the following production information available regarding its lawn mowers: Unit Contribution Margin Production Machine Hours per Mower Riding Mower $450 10 hours Self-Propelled Push Mower $250 5 hours If Sunland currently has only 900 machine hours available per month for mower production, which of the two lawn mowers, Riding Mower and/or Self-Propelled Push Mower, should Sunland produce to maximize net income (assuming all mowers produced can be sold)? Self-Propelled Push Mower, since it has the highest contribution margin per machine hour of $50. Riding Mower, since it has the highest unit contribution margin at $450. Not enough information is provided to compute the maximized net income computation. Equal amounts of each mower will maximize net income for the company.

Wings Incorporated manufactures machine parts for aircraft engines. The CEO, Chucky Valters, was considering an offer from a subcontractor that would provide 2,400 units of product PQ107 for Valters for a price of $150,000. If Wings does not purchase these parts from the subcontractor it must produce them in-house with the following unit costs: Direct materials Direct labor Variable overhead Cost per Unit $31 19 8 In addition to the above costs, if Wings produces part PQ107, it would have a retooling and design cost of $9,800. The relevant costs of producing 2,400 units of product PQ107 internally are:
Millennium Printers Inc. manufactures color laser printers. Model L-1819 presently sells for $150 and has a total product cost of $120, as follows: Direct materials $90 Direct labor 20 Factory overhead 10 Total $120 It is estimated that the competitive selling price for color laser printers of this type will drop to $140 next year. Millennium Printers wants to establish a target cost to maintain its historical markup percentage on product cost. Engineers have provided the following cost reduction ideas: Purchase a plastic printer cover with snap-on assembly. This will reduce the amount of direct labor by nine minutes per unit. Add an inspection step that will add six minutes per unit of direct labor but reduce the materials cost by $3 per unit. Decrease the cycle time of the injection molding machine from four minutes to three minutes per part. Thirty percent of the direct labor and 45% of the factory overhead is related to running injection molding machines. The direct…
A local company has two machines for producing wrenches. Each machine requires a full- time operator - regardless of production - specialized on that machine. The operator for Machine A costs $75,000 a year in fixed costs in salary and benefits. The operator for Machine B costs $62,000 a year in fixed costs in salary and benefits. The production costs of Machine A is $16. B is $20. (a) if the wrenches sell for $28, find the break-even point of each machine. (b) at what level of production do the two production machines cost the same. ( Answer it in excel)

Zion Manufacturing had always made its components in-house. However, Bryce Component Works had recently offered to supply one component, K2, at a price of $25 each. Zion uses 10 000 units of Component K2 each year. The cost per unit of this component is as follows: 1 Direct materials Direct labour Variable overhead Fixed overhead Total Refer to the information for Zion Manufacturing. The fixed overhead is an allocated expense; none of it would be eliminated if production of Component K2 stopped. Required: 2 3 $12.00 8.25 4.50 2.00 $26.75 What are the alternatives facing Zion Manufacturing with respect to production of Component K2? List the relevant costs for each alternative. If Zion decides to purchase the component from Bryce, by how much will operating income increase or decrease? Which alternative is better?
