- The following information is available for a manufacturing company which produces multiple products: The product mix ratio Contribution to sales ratio for each product General fixed costs Method of apportioning general fixed costs Which of the above are required in order to calculate the break-even sales revenue for the company?arrow_forwardHales Company produces a product that requires two processes. In the first process, a subassembly is produced (subassembly A). In the second process, this subassembly and a subassembly purchased from outside the company (subassembly B) are assembled to produce the final product. For simplicity, assume that the assembly of one final unit takes the same time as the production of subassembly A. Subassembly A is placed in a container and sent to an area called the subassembly stores (SB stores) area. A production Kanban is attached to this container. A second container, also with one subassembly, is located near the assembly line (called the withdrawal store). This container has attached to it a withdrawal Kanban. Required: 1. Explain how withdrawal and production Kanban cards are used to control the work flow between the two processes. How does this approach minimize inventories? 2. Explain how vendor Kanban cards can be used to control the flow of the purchased subassembly. What implications does this have for supplier relationships? What role, if any, do continuous replenishment and EDI play in this process?arrow_forwardChrzan, Incorporated, manufactures and sells two products: Product EO and Product NO.

- Yalland Manufacturing Company makes two different products, M and N. The company’s two departments are named after the products; for example, Product M is made in Department M. Yalland’s accountant has identified the following annual costs associated with these two products. Identify the costs that are (1) direct costs of Department M, (2) direct costs of Department N, and (3) indirect costs. Select the appropriate cost drivers for the indirect costs and allocate these costs to Departments M and N. Determine the total estimated cost of the products made in Departments M and N. Assume that Yalland produced 2,000 units of Product M and 4,000 units of Product N during the year. If Yalland prices its products at cost plus 40 percent of cost, what price per unit must it charge for Product M and for Product N?arrow_forwardBulldog Canyon Manufacturing produces three products from a joint process.
