The special equipment used to produce racing bikes has no resale value and does not wear out. Required: 1.) What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) per quarter of discontinuing the Racing Bikes? 2.) Should the production and sale of racing bikes be discontinued?
1.) Financial advantage (deisadvantage) per quarter; $11,000 Lost contribution margin $(27,000) + Fixed costs that can be avoided: Advertising, traceable $6,000 + Salary fo the product-line manager $10,000 = $(27,000) + $16,000 = Financial (disadvantage) of discontinuing the Racing Bikes $(11,000) [The depreciation of the special equipment is a sunk cost and is not relevant to the decision. The common costs are allocated and will continue regardless of whether or not the racing bikes are discontinued; thus, they are not relevant to the decision.] 2.) Should the production and sale of racing bikes be discontinued? No.

Svahn, AB, is a Swedish manufacturer of sailing yachts. The company has assembled the information shown below that pertains to two independent decision-making contexts. Case A: The company chronically has no idle capacity and the old Model B100 machine is the company's constraint. Management is considering purchasing a Model B300 machine to use in addition to the company's present Model B100 machine. The old Model B100 machine will continue to be used to capacity as before, with the new Model B300 machine being used to expand production. This will increase the company's production and sales. The increase in volume will be large enough to require increases in fixed selling expenses and in general administrative overhead, but not in the fixed manufacturing overhead. Case B: The old Model B100 machine is not the company's constraint, but management is considering replacing it with a new Model B300 machine because of the potential savings in direct materials with the new machine. The Model B100 machine would be sold. This change will have no effect on production or sales, other than some savings in direct materials costs due to less waste. Determine whether each item is relevant or irrelevant. a.) Sales revenue b.) Direct materials c.) Direct labor d.) Variable manufacturing overhead e.) Depreciation--Model B100 machine f.) Book value--Model B100 machine g.) Disposal value--Model B100 machine h.) Market value--Model B300 machine (cost) i.) Fixed manufacturing overhead (general) j.) Variable selling expense k.) Fixed selling expense l.) General administrative overhead

Relevant costs and irrelevant benefits should be considered when making decisions. True or False?
False
Some common costs, like the cost of maintaining a corporate headquarters have to be paid for. Therefore, it is appropriate to include allocated common costs into the analysis relating to determining if a business segment is profitable and should be kept or if it is unprofitable and should be dropped. True or False?
False
An activity cost pool is a "Bucket" that costs are accumulated that relate to multiple activities. True or False?
False An activity cost pool is a "Bucket" that costs are accumulated that relate to single activities.
When a company applies more overhead to jobs than is actually incurs, it is considered to have underapplied overhead. True or False?
False It is overapplied
Under Absorption costing, only those manufacturing costs that vary with output are treated as product costs. True or False?
False That is the definition of variable costing. Absorption costing treats all manufacturing costs as product costs regardless if they are variable or fixed.
The budgeting process starts with the development of the production budget. You have to know what and how many you are going to make before you can begin to create a budget for activity. True or False?
False You start with the sales budget
Activity Based Costing is a method that assigns all manufacturing overhead costs to products based on the activities performed to make those products. True or False?
True
An indirect cost is a cost that cannot be easily and conveniently traced to a specified cost object. True or False?
True
Common fixed expenses should not be allocated to business segments when performing break-even calculations and making decisions. True or False?
True
The spending variance measure the difference between an actual cost incurred and what the standard cost is for actual output. True or False
True
There are two reasons we can have variances between a plan and actual results. 1.) We use more or fewer amounts of an input than planned. 2.) An input cost more or less than planned. True or False?
True
Variable cost per unit = Direct materials per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable overhead per unit True or False?
True
Dehner Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on the following data: Total direct labor-hours = 47,000 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost = $202,100 Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour = $2.00/hr Recently, JobP951 was completed with the following characteristics: Number of units in the job = 50 Total direct labor-hours = 100 Direct materials = $850 Direct labor cost = $4,700 The unit product cost for Job P951 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places) a.) $123.60 b.) $23.60 c.) $315.00 d.) $61.80
a.) $123.60 Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost = Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead cost + (Estimated variable overhead cost per unit of the allocation base x Estimated total amount of the allocation base) = $202,100 + ($2.00 per direct labor-hour x 47,000 direct labor hours) = $202,100 + $94,000 = $296,100 Estimated total MOH cost Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost / Estimated total amount of the allocation base = $296,100 / 47,000 direct labor-hours = $6.30 per direct labor-hour Predetermined OH rate Overhead applied to a particular job = Predetermined overhead rate x Amount of the allocation base incurred by the job = $6.30 per direct labor-hour x 100 direct labor hours = $630 Overhead applied to Job P951 Direct materials $850 Direct labor $4,700 Manufacturing overhead applied $630 = Total cost of Job P951 $6,180 Total cost of JobP951 46,180 / Number of units 50 = Unit product cost $123.60
Rediger Incorporated a manufacturing Corporation, has provided the following data for the month of June. The balance in the Work in Process inventory account was $41,000 at the beginning of the month and $26,500 at the end of the month.

d.) $68.836 Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sales CM = [Product R10L ($37,000 - $11,380) + Product X96N ($50,000 - $17,330)] = $25,620 + $32,670 = $58,290 CM => CM ratio = $58,290 / ($37,000 + $50,000) = $58,290 / $87,000 = $0.67 CM ratio Dollar sales to break-even = Fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio = $46,120 / 0.67 = $68,836 To break-even
