Talboe Company makes wheels which it uses in the production of children's wagons. Talboe's costs to produce
150,000 wheels annually are as follows:
Direct material $ 30,000

Direct labor 45,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 22,500
Fixed manufacturing overhead 63,000
Total $160,500
An outside supplier has offered to sell Talboe similar wheels for $0.80 per wheel. If the wheels are purchased from
the outside supplier, $18,000 of annual fixed manufacturing overhead would be avoided and the facilities now
being used to make the wheels would be rented to another company for $46,500 per year.
If Talboe chooses to buy the wheel from the outside supplier, then the change in annual net operating income is a:

Elhard Company produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the
company's normal activity level of 41,000 units per month is as follows:
Direct materials $19.00

Direct labor $ 6.90
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2.50
Fixed manufacturing overhead $11.70
Variable selling & administrative expense $ 2.00
Fixed selling & administrative expense $ 5.20
The normal selling price of the product is $51.20 per unit.
An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,100 units to be delivered this month at a special
discounted price. This order would have no effect on the company's normal sales and would not change the total
amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $0.20 less per unit
on this order than on normal sales.
Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.
Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the
special order would require cutting back on production of 210 units for regular customers. The minimum acceptable

The Varone Company makes a single product called a Hom. The company has the capacity to produce 40,000
Homs per year. Per unit costs to produce and sell one Hom at that activity level are:

Direct labor $15
Fixed manufacturing overhead $12
Variable selling expense $10
Fixed selling expense $5
The regular selling price for one Hom is $85. A special order has been received at Varone from the Fairview
Company to purchase 6,800 Homs next year at 20% off the regular selling price. If this special order were accepted,
the variable selling expense would be reduced by 30%. However, Varone would have to purchase a specialized
machine to engrave the Fairview name on each Hom in the special order. This machine would cost $11,300 and it
would have no use after the special order was filled. The total fixed costs, both manufacturing and selling, are
constant within the relevant range of 30,000 to 40,000 Homs per year. Assume direct labor is a variable cost.
If Varone can expect to sell 33,000 Homs next year through regular channels and the special order is accepted at
20% off the regular selling price, the effect on net operating income next year due to accepting this order would be

Since absorption costing net operating income was greater than its variable costing net operating income by $7,400,
it must have deferred $7,400 of fixed manufacturing overhead costs in inventory under absorption costing.
Fixed manufacturing overhead costs deferred in inventory under absorption costing = Fixed manufacturing
overhead cost per unit Increase in units in inventory
$7,400 = $5 per unit Increase in units in inventory
Increase in units in inventory = $7,400 $5 per unit = 1,480 units

How would Eagle's variable costing net operating income be affected in its first year if only 9,260 tables were sold
instead of 10,420?


= $180 per unit - ($135 per unit + $6 per unit) = $180 per unit - $141 per unit = $39 per unit
Change in contribution margin = Unit CM ratio Change in unit sales
= $39 per unit 1,160 units = $45,240
Since fixed expenses would not be affected by this change in unit sales, the change in contribution margin would
drop directly to the bottom line, decreasing net operating income by $45,240.

Lampshire Inc. is considering using stocks of an old raw material in a special project. The special project would
require all 160 kilograms of the raw material that are in stock and that originally cost the company $1,336 in total.
If the company were to buy new supplies of this raw material on the open market, it would cost $7.35 per kilogram.
However, the company has no other use for this raw material and would sell it at the discounted price of $6.65 per
kilogram if it were not used in the special project. The sale of the raw material would involve delivery to the
purchaser at a total cost of $77 for all 160 kilograms. What is the relevant cost of the 160 kilograms of the raw

Iwasaki Inc. is considering whether to continue to make a component or to buy it from an outside supplier. The
company uses 13,800 of the components each year. The unit product cost of the component according to the
company's cost accounting system is given as follows:

Direct labor 6.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead 4.40
Unit product cost $23.00
Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. Of the fixed manufacturing overhead, 25% is avoidable if the component
were bought from the outside supplier. In addition, making the component uses 1 minute on the machine that is the
company's current constraint. If the component were bought, this machine time would be freed up for use on
another product that requires 2 minutes on this machine and that has a contribution margin of $6.00 per unit.

The Tingey Company has 500 obsolete microcomputers that are carried in inventory at a total cost of $720,000. If
these microcomputers are upgraded at a total cost of $120,000, they can be sold for a total of $180,000. As an
alternative, the microcomputers can be sold in their present condition for $50,000.
Suppose the selling price of the upgraded computers has not been set. At what selling price per unit would the
company be as well off upgrading the computers as if it just sold the computers in their present condition?
$120
$770
$340

$250
The selling price of the upgraded computers would have to cover the opportunity cost of $50,000 for selling the
computers as is as well as the $120,000 cost of upgrading.
The point of indifference would be $170,000 500 computers = $340 per computer.

Elhard Company produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the
company's normal activity level of 33,000 units per month is as follows:
Direct labor $ 7.30
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2.90
Fixed manufacturing overhead $12.10
Variable selling & administrative expense $ 2.40
Fixed selling & administrative expense $ 5.60
The normal selling price of the product is $51.60 per unit.
An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,500 units to be delivered this month at a special
discounted price. This order would have no effect on the company's normal sales and would not change the total
amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $0.20 less per unit
on this order than on normal sales.
Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the
special order would require cutting back on production of 250 units for regular customers. The minimum acceptable
price per unit for the special order is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2

If Varone can expect to sell 33,000 Homs next year through regular channels and the special order is accepted at
20% off the regular selling price, the effect on net operating income next year due to accepting this order would be
a:
$70,200 increase

$52,600 increase
$69,000 increase
$24,400 decrease
Incremental revenue (6,900 units $72 per unit*) $496,800

Total incremental cost $354,300
Variable selling expense: $10 (1 20%) = $8
Varone is economically indifferent between either accepting or not accepting this special order at the point where
revenue equals cost, so the selling price would have to be at least $53.7 per unit (= $354,300 6,600 units).

If Varone has an opportunity to sell 38,050 Homs next year through regular channels and the special order is
accepted for 10% off the regular selling price, the effect on net operating income next year due to accepting this
order would be a:
$56,700 decrease

$58,860 decrease
$56,700 increase

Variable manufacturing overhead 14
Variable selling expense 10
Unit contribution margin on normal sales $18
Capacity 40,000
Less: Special order 8,700
Capacity available for normal sales 31,300
Demand for normal sales 39,050
Displaced normal sales 7,750
Since the special order would displace 7,750 units of normal sales, the lost contribution margin would be $139,500
(= $18 per unit 7,750 units).
Incremental net operating income on special order:

Incremental revenue (8,700 units $81 per unit*) $704,700
Less incremental costs:
Direct materials (8,700 units $29 per unit) 252,300
Variable selling expense (8,700 units $8 per unit**) 69,600
Total incremental cost 621,900
Incremental net operating income $ 82,800
*Regular selling price: $90 (1 10%) = $81

**Variable selling expense: $10 (1 20%) = $8
Consequently, accepting the special order would generate incremental net operating income of $82,800, but would
displace normal sales generating a contribution margin of $139,500,so the net effect would be a $56,700 decrease
(= $139,500 $82,800) in net operating income.
