a) Explanation Differential Analysis: Differential analysis refers to the analysis of differential revenue that could be gained or differential cost that could be incurred from the available alternative options of business. The differential analysis of Company TTR on July 31, for the given alternatives is shown below. Differential Analysis of Company TTR Reject Order (Alt. 1) or Accept Order (Alt. 2) July 31 Reject Order (Alternative 1) Accept Order (Alternative 2) Differential Effect on income Revenues $0 (1) $15,000,000 $15,000,000 Costs: Direct Materials $0 (2) (-)$7,500,000 (-) $7,500,000 Direct Labor $0 (3) (-)$2,000,000 (-) $2,000,000 Variable Factory Overhead $0 (4) (-)$2,100,000 (-) $2,100,000 Variable selling and administrative expenses (5 years) $0 (5) (-) $480,000 (-) $480,000 Shipping Cost $0 (6) (-) $300,000 (-) $300,000 Certification Cost $0 (-) $400,000 (-) $400,000 Income (loss) $0 $2,220,000 $2,220,000 Table (1) The differential analysis of Company TTR on July 31 shows that accepting the order shall yield a greater income of $2,220,000 . Hence, the order should be accepted. Working Note: (1) Calculate the revenues from accepting the order. Revenue = $150 × 100,000 tires = $15,000,000 (2) Calculate the direct materials for fulfilling the order. Direct Materials = $75 × 100,000 tires = $7,500,000 (3) Calculate the direct labor for fulfilling the order b) To determine Ascertain the minimum price per unit which would be financially accepted by Company TTR.
