During March 2020, Toby Tool & Die Company worked on four jobs. A review of direct labor costs reveals the following summary data. Actual Standard Job Number Hours Costs Hours Costs Total Variance A257 200 $4,000 210 $4,200 $200 F A258 450 10,350 430 8,600 1,750 U A259 300 6,390 299 5,980 410 U A260 110 2,090 103 2,060 30 F Total variance $1,990 U Analysis reveals that Job A257 was a repeat job. Job A258 was a rush order that required overtime work at premium rates of pay. Job A259 required a more experienced replacement worker on one shift. Work on Job A260 was done for one day by a new trainee when a regular worker was absent. Prepare a report for the plant supervisor on direct labor cost variances for March. (Round actual rate and standard rate to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.50.)
Answer and Explanation:
The Preparation of report for the plant supervisor on direct labor cost variances for March is attached with the help of spreadsheet.
The Formula are as shown below:-
Actual per hour = Actual costs ÷ Actual number of hours
Standard per hour = Standard costs ÷Standard number of hours
Quantity variance = (Actual hours -Standard hours) × Standard Rate
Price variance = (Actual Rate - Standard Rate) × Actual Hour
Therefore if actual hours is lesser than Standard hours it will become favorable and if actual hours is higher than standard hours it will become unfavorable. In the similar way if actual rate is higher than standard rate then it will become unfavorable on the other hand if actual rate is lesser than standard rate then it will become favorable.
The members of a wedding party have approached Imperial Jewelers about buying 26 of these gold bracelets for the discounted price of $367.00 each. The members of the wedding party would like special filigree applied to the bracelets that would require Imperial Jewelers to buy a special tool for $457 and that would increase the direct materials cost per bracelet by $7. The special tool would have no other use once the special order is completed. To analyze this special order opportunity, Imperial Jewelers has determined that most of its manufacturing overhead is fixed and unaffected by variations in how much jewelry is produced in any given period. However, $8.00 of the overhead is variable with respect to the number of bracelets produced. The company also believes that accepting this order would have no effect on its ability to produce and sell jewelry to other customers. Furthermore, the company could fulfill the wedding party’s order using its existing manufacturing capacity.
Answer:
this special order will result in a $2,637 profit, so the company should accept it

Merone Corporation applies manufacturing overhead to products on the basis of standard machine-hours. The company bases its predetermined overhead rate on 2,800 machine-hours. The company's total budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $7,560. In the most recent month, the total actual fixed manufacturing overhead was $6,640. The company actually worked 2,700 machine-hours during the month. The standard hours allowed for the actual output of the month totaled 2,820 machine-hours. What was the overall fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance for the month? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Fixed Overhead Volume Variance $ 54 Favorable
Explanation:
Fixed Overhead Volume variance is the difference between the budgeted fixed overhead and applied fixed overhead.
Budgeted Fixed Overhead = $7,560
Applied Fixed Overhead = Standard Rate * Standard Hours
Standard Rate for Fixed Overhead = $7,560/2,800 = $ 2.7
Applied Fixed Overhead = $ 2.7*2,820= $ 7614
Fixed Overhead Volume Variance=Budgeted Fixed Overhead-Applied Fixed Overhead
Fixed Overhead Volume Variance= $7,560-$ 7614= $ 54 Favorable
If applied overhead is more than budgeted overhead it is favorable because it indicates that the budgeted overhead is within in the standard range.
Grey Inc. has been purchasing a component, Z for $85 a unit. The company is currently operating at 75% of full capacity, and no significant increase in production is anticipated in the near future. The cost of manufacturing a unit of Z, determined by absorption costing method, is estimated as follows: Direct materials $30 Direct labor 15 Variable factory overhead 26 Fixed factory overhead 10 Total $81 Prepare a differential analysis report, dated March 12 of the current year, on the decision to make or buy Part Z.
Answer:
The difference between buying and making is $14 per unit. It is $14 cheaper to make the unit.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchasing price= $85 a unit.
Variable cost per unit:
Direct materials $30
Direct labor 15
Variable factory overhead 26
Because there is unused capacity, the fixed costs won't increase. Fixed factory overhead should not be taken into account.
Total unitary variable cost= $71
The difference between buying and making is $14 per unit. It is $14 cheaper to make the unit.
Xerox Corporation is using a predetermined overhead rate of $22.30 per machine-hour that was based on estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead of $446,000 and 20,000 machine-hours for the period. The company incurred actual total fixed manufacturing overhead of $409,000 and 18,200 total machine-hours during the period. The amount of manufacturing overhead that would have been applied to all jobs during the period is closest to:
Answer:
$405,860
Explanation:
Data given
Predetermined overhead rate = $22.30
Actual machine hours = $18,200
The computation of manufacturing overhead applied is shown below:-
Manufacturing overhead applied = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual machine hours
= $22.30 × 182,00
= $405,860
Therefore for computing the manufacturing overhead applied we simply multiplied the predetermined overhead rate with actual machine hours.
January 1, 2016, Kendall Inc. began construction of an automated cattle feeder system. The system was finished and ready for use on September 30, 2017. Expenditures on the project were as follows: January 1, 2016 September 1, 2016 December 31, 2016 March 31, 2017 September 30, 2017 $200,000 $300,000 $300,000 $300,000 $200,000 Kendall borrowed $750,000 on a construction loan at 12% interest on January 1, 2016. This loan was outstanding throughout the construction period. The company had $4,500,000 in 9% bonds payable outstanding in 2016 and 2017.
Interest capitalized for 2017 was ___.
Answer:
Interest capitalized for 2017 = $86,805
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Average expenditure for 2016 = ($200,000×12÷12) +($300,000×4÷12)+($300,000×0÷12)
=$300,000
Interest capitalized for 2016 =($200,000×12÷12)+($300,000×4÷12)+($300,000×0÷12)×12%
= $36,000
Average expenditure for 2017 :
Accumulated expenditure in 2016 = ($200,000+$300,000+$300,000 +$36,000)×9÷9
= $836,000
For March-31,2017 = $300,000×6÷9
= $200,000
For Sept-30,2017 = $200,000×0÷9 = $0
Average expenditure for 2017 = $836,000 + $200,000 + $0
= $1,036,000
Interest capitalized for 2017 :
Specific borrowing = $750,000×9÷12×12%
= $67,500
Excessive amount = ($1,036,000 - $750,000)×9÷12×9%
= $19,305
Interest capitalized for 2017 = $67,500 + $19,305
= $86,805
North Shore Community College reimburses faculty members $.298 per mile to go to a workshop. Professor Wales submitted her travel log for a total of 650.11 miles. What reimbursement can Professor Wales expect? (Round answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
$193.73
Explanation:
The computation of the reimbursement professor Wales expect is shown below:
= Number of miles required to go workshop × total submitted her travel log
= $0.298 per mile × 650.11 miles
= $193.73
By multiplying the number of miles required with the total submitted her travel log we can get the expected reimbursement and the same is to be considered

d) Following is forecast for economic situation and Rachel’s portfolio returns next year, calculate the expected return, variance, and standard deviation of the portfolio. (4 marks)
Required: step by step explanation with formula please
Answer: The answer is provided below
Explanation:
The weights of assest in Rachel's portfolio: = amount in each stock ÷ sum of the amounts invested in all stocks.
Share Amount Weight
A. 13500. 0.33
B. 7600. 0.18
C. 14700. 0.36
D. 5500. 0.13
Total 41300
Note that weight = amount/total
Geometric average return of a portfolio:
((1+R1)×(1+R2)×(1+R3)....×(1+Rn))^(1/n) - 1
where,
R1= return of period 1
Rn= return in nth period
Hence, the geometric average return of Rachel's portfolio will be:
((1+9.7%)×(1+12.4%)×(1-5.5%)×(1+17.2%))^(1/4) - 1
= 8.10 % (approximately) per year.
Using the nominal rate of return which includes inflation:
CAPM: Required return will be:
= Risk free return + (Risk premium × Beta)
13.6 = Risk free return + (4.8 × 1.5)
13.6 = Risk free return + 7.2
Risk free return = 13.6 - 7.2
= 6.4% which is not inflation adjusted)
The inflation adjusted rate of return will be:
= (1+return)/(1+inflation rate))-1
= ((1+13.6%)/(1+2.7%))-1
= 10.61%
Using CAPM:
10.61= Risk free return + (4.8 × 1.5)
10.61 = Risk free return + 7.2
Risk free return = 10.61 - 7.2
Risk free return = 3.41% (at real rates)
In practice, the use of inflation adjusted return i.e the real rate of return which is 10.61% is better as it puts forth a long term perspective on how a stock is performing.

According to noted economist Thomas Piketty:
a. the annual pay for top executives should include a small guaranteed salary and should include a very large bonus in years where the firm earns higher profits than competitors.
b. CEOs should not earn much more than 10-20 times the earnings of the company's average salary.
c. top executives are entitled to any level of pay they can negotiate with their board of directors.
d. all bonuses paid to CEOs should be tied to long-run increases in market share.
Answer:
b. CEOs should not earn much more than 10-20 times the earnings of the company's average salary.
Explanation:
Thomas Piketty was a French economist born on the 7th of May, 1971 in Clichy, France.
In 2013, Thomas Piketty published a book "Capital in the Twenty-first Century." The book focused on the wealth and income inequality from the 18th century in United States of America and Europe.
According to the notable economist Thomas Piketty, the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of an organization shouldn't earn much more than 10-20 times the earnings of the company's average salary.
He argues that this would help to spread wealth among the citizens (employees) rather than a minority of the larger population.
Thomas Piketty's argument was based on the formula that relates rate of return on capital (r) to economic growth (g).
Rate of return on capital (r) are dividends, profits, interests and rent from capital while economic growth (g) is measured by the nation's income.
A television manufacturer would like to reduce its inventory. To this end, you are asked by the operations manager to assess its inventory level. You have the following information on average inventories from last year's financial statement: Raw materials $1,500,000 Work-in-process $1,200,000 Finished goods $800,000 In addition, the cost of goods sold last year (50 weeks) was $20 million. What is its total inventory (measured as weeks of supply) Answer
Answer:
A.8.75 weeks
B.5.71
Explanation:
a.
Weeks of supply = average aggregate inventory value/weekly sales at cost
=(1,500,000 + 1,200,000 + 800,000)/(20,000,000/50)
=3,500,000/400,000
= 8.75 weeks
b.Inventory turnover = annual sales (at cost)/average aggregate inventory value
=20 million/3.5 million
= 5.71
Answer:
Weeks Of Supply = 27.82 weeks
Explanation:
Weeks of Supply tells us that on average how long an inventory will last based on current demand.
The formula to calculate it is given below
Weeks Of Supply = Average Aggregate Inventory Value/ Weekly Cost of Sales
Weeks Of Supply = Raw Materials + Work In Process + Finished Goods/ Weekly Cost of Sales
Weeks Of Supply =$1,500,000+ $1,200,000+ $800,000/$ 20,000,000/52
Weeks Of Supply = 10,700,000/384615.385= 27.82 weeks
If the weeks of supply is lower it is better.
Inventory Turnover= $ 20,000,000/10,700,000=1.87 turns
Relative to the Sharpe ratio, the Sortino ratio will make a portfolio’s performance look more favorable if the portfolio has experienced: Group of answer choices fewer extreme negative returns relative to extreme positive returns. fewer extreme positive returns relative to extreme negative returns. an equal number of extreme positive and extreme negative returns. virtually no extreme negative or extreme positive returns.
Answer:
fewer extreme negative returns relative to extreme positive returns.
Explanation:
In simple words, The Sortino ratio relates to the variant of the Sharpe ratio which distinguishes negative variance against total combined variance by using the investment's confidence interval of unfavorable portfolio returns, named downside variance, rather than the total confidence interval of stock return.
The Sortino equation considers the return of a security or property and removes the default free percentage and then splits that quantity by the drawback variance of the relative asset.
The MoMi Corporation’s income before interest, depreciation and taxes, was $2.7 million in the year just ended, and it expects that this will grow by 5% per year forever. To make this happen, the firm will have to invest an amount equal to 15% of pre tax cash flow each year. The tax rate is 30%. Depreciation was $330,000 in the year just ended and is expected to grow at the same rate as the operating cash flow. The appropriate market capitalization rate for the unlevered cash flow is 12% per year, and the firm currently has debt of $5 million outstanding. Use the free cash flow approach to calculate the value of the firm and the firm’s equity. (Enter your answer in dollars not in millions.)
Answer:
1. The value of the firm is $23,760,000
2. The value of the equity is $18.76m
Explanation:
In order to calculate the value of the firm we would have to use the following formula:
Value of firm = FCF1 / (r - g) = FCF0 x (1 + g) / (r - g)
Operating Cash Flows (OCF) = (EBITDA - Depreciation) x (1 - tax) + Depreciation
= (2,700,000 - 330,000) x (1 - 30%) + 330,000
= $1,989,000
Free Cash Flow (FCF) = OCF - Investment
We know that investment = 15% of EBITDA = 15% x 2,700,000 = 405,000
Current FCF = 1,989,000 - 405,000 = 1,584,000
Therefore, Value of the firm = 1,584,000 x (1 + 5%) / (12% - 5%) = $23,760,000
To calculate the value of equity we would have to use the following formula:
Value of equity = Value of Firm - Value of Debt = 23.76 - 5 = $18.76m
Answer:
Value of the firm $ 14550000.
Value of the firm's equity $ 11550000.
Explanation:
Cash flow from operations = $ 1785000 (1700000 + 5 % of 1700000).
Depreciation = $ 241500. (230000 + 5 % of 230000).
Taxable income = $ 1543500 (1785000 - 241500)
Net income (after tax) = 1543500 - 30 % of 1543500 = $ 1080450.
Cash flow from operations (after tax) = 1080450 + 241500 (Depreciation, being non cash expense). = $ 1321950.
Free cash flow available = Cash flow from operations (after tax) - Income from investment.
= 1321950 - (1700000 * 17 % * 1.05)
= 1321950 - 303450.
= $ 1018500.
Value of the firm = Free cash flow available / (Capitalization rate - Growth rate)
= 1018500 / (0.12 - 0.05)
= 1018500 / 0.07
= $ 14550000.
Value of the firm's equity = Total value of firm - Value of debt of firm
= 14550000 - 3000000
= $ 11550000.
Conclusion :-
Value of the firm $ 14550000.
Value of the firm's equity $ 11550000.
Sales $9,600,000 Variable Expenses 6,810,000 Contribution Margin 2,790,000 Fixed Expenses 1,926,000 Net Operating Income $ 864,000 Average Operating Assets $4,000,000 At the beginning of this year, the company has a $1,200,000 investment opportunity with the following characteristics: Sales $4,200,000 Fixed Expenses $ 960,000 Contribution Margin Ratio 30% If the company pursues the investment opportunity and otherwise performs the same as last year, the combined margin for the entire company will be closest to:
Answer:
8.43%
Explanation:
The computation of combined margin is shown below:-
For computing the combined margin for the entire company first we need to compute the combined net operating income and combined sales which is here below:-
Combined net operating income = Existing operating income + Operating income from new investment opportunity
= $864,000 + ($4,200,000 × 30% - $960,000)
= $864,000 + ($1,260,000 - $960,000)
= $864,000 + $300,000
= $1,164,000
Combined sales = $9,600,000 + $4,200,000
= $13,800,000
Combined margin for entire company = Combined net operating income ÷ Combined sales
= $1,164,000 ÷ $13,800,000
= 8.43%
he following data has been collected about Keller Company's stockholders' equity accounts: Common stock $10 par value 30,000 shares authorized and 15,000 shares issued, 2,000 shares outstanding $150,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock 60,000 Retained earnings 35,000 Treasury stock 25,000 Assuming the treasury shares were all purchased at the same price, the number of shares of treasury stock is:
Answer:
13,000 shares
Explanation:
data provided for computing the number of shares of treasury stock is here below:-
Issued Share = 15,000
Outstanding Shares = 2,000
The computation of the number of shares of treasury stock is shown below:-
Number of shares of treasury stock = Issued Share - Outstanding Shares
= 15,000 - 2,000
= 13,000 shares
Therefore for computing the number of shares of treasury stock we simply deduct the outstanding share from issued shares.

1.Calculate the following profitability ratios for 2021: (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)
The four main profitability ratios are:
gross profit margin = (revenue - COGS) / revenue = ($8,400,000 - $5,535,600) / $8,400,000 = 0.341 or 34.1%net profit margin = net profit / revenue = $332,500 / $8,400,000 = 0.03958 or 3.96%return on assets = net income / average total assets = $332,500 / [($3,700,000 + $3,300,000)/2] = $332,500 / $3,500,000 = 0.095 or 9.5%return on equity = net income / shareholders equity = $332,500 / $1,000,000 = 0.3325 or 33.25%2.Determine the amount of dividends paid to shareholders in 2021.
retained earnings 2021 - retained earnings 2020 = net income - dividends
$250,000 - $150,000 = $332,500 - dividends
$100,000 + dividends = $332,500
dividends = $332,500 - $100,000 = $232,500
Peggy sells pistachios and almonds at the farmer’s market. She currently prices pistachios at $7 per bag and almonds at $4 per bag. She observes that every hour, 4 people each buy one bag of pistachios and 2 people each buy one bag of almonds. Having surveyed them, she learns that 2 of the pistachio buyers would be willing to pay $2 for the bag of almonds while the other two would only be willing to pay $1. Both almond buyers would be willing pay $5 for the bag of pistachios. Suppose Peggy decides to sell a bundle containing one bag of pistachios and one bag of almonds in addition to selling them separately. What price should she charge for the bundle in order to maximize revenue?
Answer:
The price she should charge for the bundle in order to maximize profit is 9
Explanation:
Solution
The total pistachios sold = 7 * 2 =14
The total almonds sold is = 4*1 = 4
So,
The total of both pistachios and almonds = 14 + 4 + 18
Thus,
we solve for getting average of the two which is:
Getting the average of the two in the bundle = 18/2
=9
Therefore p =9
Whitmer Corporation is working on its direct labor budget for the next two months. Each unit of output requires 0.07 direct labor-hours. The direct labor rate is $9.00 per direct labor-hour. The production budget calls for producing 4,200 units in February and 4,700 units in March. Required: Prepare the direct labor budget for the next two months, assuming that the direct labor work force is fully adjusted to the total direct labor-hours needed each month. (Round "labor-hours per unit"
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Each unit of output requires 0.07 direct labor-hours. The direct labor rate is $9.00 per direct labor-hour. The production budget calls for producing 4,200 units in February and 4,700 units in March.
Direct labor budget of February:
Direct labor hours= 4,200*0.07= 294
Direct labor cost= 294*9= $2,646
Direct labor budget of March:
Direct labor hours= 4,700*0.07= 329
Direct labor cost= 329*9= $2,961
Becton Labs, Inc., produces various chemical compounds for industrial use. One compound, called Fludex, is prepared using an elaborate distilling process. The company has developed standard costs for one unit of Fludex, as follows: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Direct materials 2.50 ounces $ 22.00 per ounce $ 55.00 Direct labor 0.90 hours $ 16.00 per hour 14.40 Variable manufacturing overhead 0.90 hours $ 2.00 per hour 1.80 Total standard cost per unit $ 71.20 During November, the following activity was recorded related to the production of Fludex: Materials purchased, 14,000 ounces at a cost of $289,800. There was no beginning inventory of materials; however, at the end of the month, 4,050 ounces of material remained in ending inventory. The company employs 26 lab technicians to work on the production of Fludex. During November, they each worked an average of 150 hours at an average pay rate of $15.00 per hour. Variable manufacturing overhead is assigned to Fludex on the basis of direct labor-hours. Variable manufacturing overhead costs during November totaled $5,000. During November, the company produced 3,900 units of Fludex. Required: 1. For direct materials: a. Compute the price and quantity variances. b. The materials were purchased from a new supplier who is anxious to enter into a long-term purchase contract. Would you recommend that the company sign the contract
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation is shown below:
Material price variance
= Actual Quantity × (Standard Price - Actual Price)
= 14,000 × ($22 - $289,800 ÷ 14,000)
= 14,000 × ($22 - $20.70)
= 14,000 × $1.30
= $18,200 favorable
Material quantity variance
= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)
= $22 × (3,900 units × 2.5 - 14,000 ounces - 4,050 ounces)
= $22 × (9,750 - 9,950)
= $22 × 200
= $4,400 unfavorable
b. Yes the contract should be signed as it is the actual price i.e $20.70 is less than the standard price $22
Which of the following statements is correct with respect to inventories? The FIFO method assumes that the costs of the earliest goods acquired are the last to be sold. It is generally good business management to sell the most recently acquired goods first "Under FIFO, the ending inventory is based on the latest units purchased." FIFO seldom coincides with the actual physical flow of inventory.
Answer:
Under FIFO, the ending inventory is based on the latest units purchased.
Explanation:
First in, first out inventory (FIFO) method values cost of goods sold using the purchase price of the "oldest" units in inventory. This means that the cost of the first units sold will be used to determine COGS.
On the other hand, last in, first out (LIFO) method uses the price of the most recently purchased units to determine the cost of goods sold.
On January 1, 2021, M Company granted 95,000 stock options to certain executives. The options are exercisable no sooner than December 31, 2023, and expire on January 1, 2027. Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $12. An option-pricing model estimates the fair value of the options to be $5 on the date of grant. What amount should M recognize as compensation expense for 2021
Answer:
$158,333 approx
Explanation:
The computation of compensation expense is shown below:-
Compensation expense = (Number of options expected to be exercised × Fair value) ÷ Vesting period (From 1 Jan 2024 to 31 Dec 2026)
= (95,000 × $5) ÷ 3 years
= $475,000 ÷ 3 years
= $158,333 approx
Therefore for computing the compensation expenses we simply applied the above formula.
Suppose you are considering the purchase of an apartment building that has 12 units that can be rented out at $1,050 per month. You have estimated operating expenses and expected vacancy and collection losses for the first year to be $35,700 and $30,240, respectively. You also have estimated that you will be able to generate an additional $3,840 in the first year from garage rentals on the property. If the expected purchase price of the property is $1,100,000 and you are planning on making a 10% down payment, calculate the debt yield ratio.
Answer:
The debit yield ratio is 9%
Explanation:
Rent = 12 units × 12 months × $1,050 = $151,200
Net Operating Income = Rent- Operating expenses - Expected vacancy and collection losses + Garage rent
= $151,200 - $35,700 - $30,240 + $3,840
= $89,100
Debt amount = Price × (1 - Down payment)
= $1,100,000 × (1 - 0.1)
= $990,000
Debt yield ratio = [tex]\frac{Net Operating Income}{Debt}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{89,100}{990,000}[/tex]
= 9%

Suppose a hypothetical economy is currently in a situation of deficient aggregate demand of $64 billion. Four economists agree that expansionary fiscal policy can increase total spending and move the economy out of recession, but they are debating which type of expansionary policy should be used. Economist A believes that the government spending multiplier is 8 and the tax multiplier is 2. Economist B believes that the government spending multiplier is 4 and the tax multiplier is 8. Compute the amount the government would have to increase spending to close the output gap according to each economist's belief. Then, for each scenario, compute the size of the tax cut that would achieve this same effect. Spending Multiplier Tax Multiplier Policy Options for Closing Output Gap Increase in Spending Tax Cut (Billions of dollars) (Billions of dollars) Economist A 8 2 Economist B 4 8
Answer:
Government needs to fill gap of $64 billions
for economist A
Tax multipler is 2 so to fill a output gap of 64 billions, cut taxes by 64/ 2 = 32 billion
tax have to cut by $32 billions
govt spending multiplier is 8, so spendinh has to increase by 64/8=$8 billions.
for economist B
Tax multipler is 8 so to fill a output gap of 64 billions, cut taxes by 64/ 8= 8 billion
tax have to cut by $8 billions
govt spending multiplier is 4, so spending has to increase by 64/4=$16 billions.
c. This means that Economist C likely believes that:
- Tax cuts induce investment spending and improve workers incentives.This is because cutting the taxes gives an incentive to the workers to work more.
d. A rise in government spending completely crowds out private sector spending, because increased govt spending increases the interest rate, hence private spending is crowded out.
Mobility Partners makes wheelchairs and other assistive devices. For years it has made the rear wheel assembly for its wheelchairs. A local bicycle manufacturing firm, Trailblazers, Inc., offered to sell these rear wheel assemblies to Mobility. If Mobility makes the assembly, its cost per rear wheel assembly is as follows (based on annual production of 2,000 units): Direct materials $ 26 Direct labor 53 Variable overhead 21 Fixed overhead 49 Total $ 149 Trailblazers has offered to sell the assembly to Mobility for $110 each. The total order would amount to 2,000 rear wheel assemblies per year, which Mobility's management will buy instead of make if Mobility can save at least $20,000 per year. Accepting Trailblazers's offer would eliminate annual fixed overhead of $38,500. Required: a. Prepare a schedule that shows the total differential costs. (Select option "higher" or "lower", keeping Status Quo as the base. Select "none" if there is no effect.)
Answer and Explanation:
The preparation of the total differential cost schedule is presented below
Schedule showing statement of total differential cost
Particulars Make the wheels Buy from trailblazers Differential cost
Offer of trailblazer $220,000 $220,000 Higher
(2000 × $110)
Material cost $52,000 $52,000 Lower
($26 × 2000)
Labor cost $106,000 $106,000 Lower
($53 × 2000)
Variable overhead $42000 $42,000 Lower
($21 × 2000)
Fixed overhead $98000 $59,500 $38,500 Lower
($49 × 2000) ($98,000 -$38,500)
Total cost $298,000 $279,500 ($18,500) Lower
By adding the total cost we can get the making cost, buying cost and differential cost
