Deuce Sporting Goods manufactures a high-end model tennis racket. The company’s forecasted income statement for the year, before any special orders, is as follows: Fixed costs included in the forecasted income statement are $400,000 in manufacturing cost of goods sold and $200,000 in selling expenses. A new client placed a special order with Deuce, offering to buy 1,000 tennis rackets for $100.00 each. The company will incur no additional selling expenses if it accepts the special order. Assuming that Deuce has sufficient capacity to manufacture 1,000 more tennis rackets, by what amount would differential income increase (decrease) as a result of accepting the special order?

Jansen Crafters has the capacity to produce 50,000 oak shelves per year and is currently selling 44,000 shelves for $32 each. Cutrate Furniture approached Jansen about buying 1,200 shelves for bookcases it is building and is willing to pay $26 for each shelf. No packaging will be required for the bulk order.

However, the $130 packaging cost will not apply in this case. The fixed costs will be unaffected by the special order and the company has the capacity to accept the order. Based on this information, what would be the profit if Jansen accepts the special order? A. Profits will decrease by $1,200. B. Profits will increase by $31,200. C. Profits will increase by $600. D. Profits will increase by $7,200.

This year, Hassell Company will ship 4,000,000 pounds of chocolates to customers with total order-filling costs of 900,000. There are two types of customers: those who order 50,000 pound lots (small customers) and those who order 250,000 pound lots (large customers). Each customer category is responsible for buying 1,500,000 pounds. The selling price per pound is 2 per lb for the 50,000 pound lot and 3 per lb for the larger lots, due to differences in the type of chocolate. ABC would likely assign order-filling costs to the customer type as follows: a. 450,000, small; 450,000, large (using pounds as the driver) b. 360,000, small; 540,000, large (using revenue as the driver) c. 750,000, small; 150,000, large (using number of orders as the driver) d. 450,000, small; 450,000, large (using customer type as the driver)
