In the Bottling Department, workers bottle the filtered water and pack the bottles into boxes. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the Bottling process, but packaging materials are not added until the end of the process.

The costs per unit, for 20,000 filters, are as follows. Direct materials $6.00 Direct labor 7.00 Variable overhead 1.00 Fixed overhead 2.00 Total costs $16.00 Irrigation Products has offered to sell 20,000 filters to Filtration for $16 per filter. If Filtration accepts Irrigation Products’ offer, the facilities used to manufacture filters could be used to produce refrigerator filtration units. Revenues from the sale of refrigerator filtration units are estimated at $54,000, with variable costs amounting to 50% of sales. In addition, $1 per unit of the fixed overhead associated with the manufacture of secondary water irrigation filters could be eliminated.

The manufacturing process consists of three activities: Mixing: water, sugar, and beverage concentrate are mixed. Filling: mixed beverage is filled into 12-oz. cans. Packaging: properly filled cans are boxed into cardboard “fridge packs.” The activity costs associated with these activities for the period are as follows: Mixing $354,000 Filling 313,000 Packaging 138,000 Total $805,000 The activity costs do not include materials costs, which are ignored for this analysis. Each can is expected to contain 12 ounces of beverage. Thus, after being filled, each can is automatically weighed. If a can is too light, it is rejected, or “kicked,” from the filling line prior to being packaged. The primary cause of kicks is heat expansion. With heat expansion, the beverage overflows during filling, resulting in underweight cans. This process begins by mixing and filling 11,960,000 cans during the period, of which only…arrow_forward
- Bremen Fitness Products produces a sports drink. On October 1, it had no work-in-process inventory. It started production of 9,000 cases of the drink in October and shipped 7,800 cases to retailers. (Bremen holds no finished goods inventory.) The costs of the resources used by Bremen in October consist of the following. Materials $ 87,523 Conversion costs (labor and overhead) 134,975 Required: The production supervisor estimates that the ending work in process is 55 percent complete on October 31. Compute the cost of cases shipped and the amount in work-in-process ending inventory as of October 31. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)arrow_forwardAn internally produced part is used by a company in making one of its products. A total of 21,500 units of this part are produced and used every year. The Accounting Department reports: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Supervisor's salary Depreciation of special equipment Allocated general overhead An outside vendor has offered to sell the part to the company for $31.50 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part has no salvage value or other use. None of the allocated general overhead would be avoided if the part were purchased. Also, the space used to make the part could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $33,500 per year. The financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of buying the part should be: Multiple Choice ($28,850) ($127,750) $33,500 Per Unit $ 4.60 $9.20 $…arrow_forwardKilbuck Company operates in a lean manufacturing environment.
