Consider the following production and cost data for two products, X and Y, manufactured by Company. Product X Product Y Sales price per unit $52 $40 Direct materials cost per unit $18 $8 Direct labor hours per unit 1.5 1.0 Machine hours per unit 3.0 2.0 The labor rate is $10 per hour. Variable overhead is $2 per direct labor hour. The company can hire sufficient labor for any production level. The company has 15,000 machine hours available each period. There is unlimited demand for each product. Assuming a company has achieved a reasonable level of cost accuracy, what is the most important determinant of whether cost information should be even more accurate?
Sardi Incorporated is considering whether to continue to make a component or to buy it from an outside supplier. The company uses 12,600 of the components each year. The unit product cost of the component according to the company's cost accounting system is given as follows: Direct materials $ 8.40 Direct labor 5.40 Variable manufacturing overhead 1.20 Fixed manufacturing overhead 3.20 Unit product cost $ 18.20 Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. Of the fixed manufacturing overhead, 35% is avoidable if the component were bought from the outside supplier. In addition, making the component uses 1 minutes on the machine that is the company's current constraint. If the component were bought, time would be freed up for use on another product that requires 2 minutes on this machine and that has a contribution margin of $4.80 per unit. When deciding whether to make or buy the component, what cost of making the component should be compared to the price of buying the…

Collins Co. produces a part used in the manufacture of one of its products. The unit product cost is $40, computed as follows: Direct materials, direct labor, and variable overhead $24 Fixed overhead $16 Total $40 An outside supplier has offered to provide the parts for only $30 each. If the parts are purchased from the outside supplier, (1) the company estimates that 25% of the fixed overhead cost above could be eliminated; (2) the company can use the freed capacity to launch a new product, earning a contribution margin of $5 per unit. Based on these data, the per-unit dollar financial advantage or disadvantage of purchasing from the outside supplier would be: Multiple Choice a)$7 financial disadvantage b)$8 financial advantage c)$2 financial disadvantage d)$3 financial advantage
