Jason Rogers works full-time for UPS and runs a lawn-mowing service part-time after work during the warm months of April through October. Jason has two men working with him, each of whom is paid $6.00 per lawn mowing. Jason has 25 residential customers who contract with him for once-weekly lawn mowing during the months of May through September, and twice-per-month mowings during April and October. On average, Jason charges $42 per lawn mowed. Recently, LStar Property Management Services asked Jason to mow the lawn at each of its 29 rental houses every two weeks during the months of May through September. LStar has offered to pay $29 per lawn mowing, and would forego the lawn edging that normally takes Jason’s team about half of its regular mowing time. If Jason accepts the job, he can assign a one-man team to mow the rental house yards, and will have to buy an additional power lawn mower for about $370…

Exercise 18-11
Indigo Windows manufactures and sells custom storm windows for three-season porches. Indigo also provides installation service for the windows. The installation process does not involve changes in the windows, so this service can be performed by other vendors. Indigo enters into the following contract on July 1, 2020, with a local homeowner. The customer purchases windows for a price of $2,520 and chooses Indigo to do the installation. Indigo charges the same price for the windows irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. The customer pays Indigo $2,040 (which equals the standalone selling price of the windows, which have a cost of $1,110) upon delivery and the remaining balance upon installation of the windows. The windows are delivered on September 1, 2020, Indigo completes installation on October 15, 2020, and the customer pays the balance due.

When a company has post-acquisition expenditures related to Property, Plant, and Equipment it must determine whether the amount
should be expensed as an ordinary repair or capitalized as a major repair, addition, or betterment. This requires considering the nature
of the expenditure and the use of judgment.
Many companies use a threshold amount. Any expenditure below the threshold is expensed. Items over the threshold are examined
and a decision is made about whether to expense or capitalize the item. This approach is justified by both materiality and considering
costs and benefits. For example, a company with $94 million in net property, plant, and equipment and $250 million of operating
expenses would not consider a $100 repair as material. Plus, if the company had to spend thousands of dollars examining every repair
expenditure, the costs of doing the analysis could easily outweigh the benefits.

Prior to installing a JIT system, Grindstone Company used machine hours to assign maintenance costs to its three products of 4-inch, 6-inch, and 9-inch insulation. The maintenance costs totaled $432,000 per year. The machine hours used by each product and the quantity produced of each product are as follows:
Machine Hours
Quantity Produced
4-inch
5,000
15,000 rolls
6-inch
12,000
12,500 rolls
9-inch
7,000
11,200 rolls
After installing JIT, three manufacturing cells were created, and the cell workers were trained to perform maintenance. Maintenance costs for the three cells still totaled $432,000; however, these costs are now traceable to each cell.
Cell, 4-inch
$125,000
Cell, 6-inch
175,000
Cell, 9-inch

Splish College provides its own housekeeping services. The College director would like to outsource this service and has found a
company that will provide the service for $49 per hour. The following information has been collected about the cost per hour to the
college for performing its own housekeeping services
Cost per hour of service:
Cleaning supplies
$3
Direct labour costs
$27
Variable overhead
$1
Total hours of housekeeping services per year
3,040
Total fixed overhead
$55,080
(a)
Your answer is partially correct
Determine whether Splish College should outsource housekeeping, assuming that 50% of fixed costs can be eliminated if the
service is outsourced. (If an amount reduces the net income then enter with a negative sign preceding the number, eg-15,000 or
parenthesis, eg (15,000). While alternate approaches are possible, irrelevant fixed costs should be included in both options when solving
this problem.)
