Mini Case Study Five years ago, Phil Davis left his position at a large company to start Integrated Solutions Co. (ISC), a software design company. ISC’s first product was a unique software package that seamlessly integrated networked PCs. Robust sales of this initial product permitted the company to begin development of other software products and to hire additional personnel. The staff at ISC quickly grew from three people working out of Davis’s basement to over 70 individuals working in leased spaces at an industrial park. Continued growth led Davis to hire seasoned marketing, distribution, and production managers and an experienced accountant, Jan Smith. Recently, Davis decided that the company had become too large to run on an informal basis and that a formalized planning and control program centered on a budget was necessary. Davis asked the accountant, Jan Smith, to work with him in developing the initial budget for ISC. Davis forecasted sales revenues based on his projections…

Question 1                                                                                                             Jack & Kerry (Pty) Limited has been in the manufacturing business for more than 10 years and has been making iron fencing rods used in specialised fencing. The manufacturing process has been mainly manual using machinery for basic tasks. After the managers’ strategic meeting at the end of 2019, the company decided to automate operations and to start using palisade bars in palisade fencing.

The iron rod takes an hour of direct labour to produce, while the more complex palisade bar takes two direct labour hours to produce. Overhead costs are being allocated on the basis of direct labour hours. Overheads have been estimated at $1 020 000 for 2021, and the production will be scheduled to cater for the above demand.   Unit costs…

The sales manager believes that the market share for the TV board could be expanded by  concentrating  Manchester’s  promotional  efforts  in  this  area.  In…
