Product costing and decision analysis for a service company Blue Star Airline provides passenger airline service, using small jets. The airline connects four major cities: Charlotte, Pittsburgh, Detroit, and San Francisco. The company expects to fly 170,000 miles during a month. The following costs are budgeted for a month: Fuel 2,120,000 Ground personnel 788,500 Crew salaries 850,000 Depreciation 430,000 Total costs 4,188,500 Blue Star management wishes to assign these costs to individual flights in order to gauge the profitability of its service offerings. The following activity bases were identified with the budgeted costs: Airline Cost Activity Base Fuel, crew, and depreciation costs Number of miles flown Ground personnel Number of arrivals and departures at an airport The size of the companys ground operation in each city is determined by the size of the workforce. The following data are available from corporate records for each terminal operation: Terminal City Ground Personnel Cost Number of Arrivals/Departures Charlotte 256,000 320 Pittsburgh 97,500 130 Detroit 129,000 150 San Francisco 306,000 340 Total 788,500 940 Three recent representative flights have been selected for the profitability study. Their characteristics are as follows: Description Miles Flown Number of Passengers Ticket Price per Passenger Flight 101 Charlotte to San Francisco 2,000 80 695,00 Flight 102 Detroit to Charlotte 800 50 441,50 Flight 103 Charlotte to Pittsburgh 400 20 382,00 Instructions 1. Determine the fuel, crew, and depreciation cost per mile flown. 2. Determine the cost per arrival or departure by terminal city. 3. Use the information in (1) and (2) to construct a profitability report for the three flights. Each flight has a single arrival and departure to its origin and destination city pairs.
Communication Jamarcus Bradshaw, plant, manager of Georgia Paper Company's papermaking mill, was looking over the cost of production reports for July and August for the Papermaking Department. The reports revealed the following: July August Pulp and chemicals 295,600 304,100 Conversion cost 146,000 149,600 Total cost 441,600 453,700 Number of tons + 1,200 + 1,130 Cost per ton 368 401.50 Jamarcus was concerned about the increased cost per ton from the output of the department. As a result, he asked the plant controller to perform a study to help explain these results. The controller, Leann Brunswick, began the analysis by performing some interviews of key plant personnel in order to understand what the problem might be. Excerpts from an interview with Len Tyson, a paper machine operator, follow: Len: We have two papermaking machines in the department I have no data, but I think paper machine No. 1 is applying too much pulp and, thus, is wasting both conversion and materials resources. We haven't had repairs on paper machine No. 1 in a while. Maybe this is the problem. Leann. How does too much pulp result i n wasted resources? Len: Well, you see, if too much pulp is applied, then we will waste pulp material. The customer will not pay for the extra product we just use more material to make the product. Also, when there is too much pulp, the machine must be slowed down in order to complete the drying process. This results in additional conversion costs. Leann: Do you have any other suspicions? Len: Well, as you know, we have two productsgreen pa per and yellow pa per. They are identical except for the color. The color is added to the papermaking process in the paper machine. I think that during August these two color papers have been behaving differently. I don't have any data, but it seems as though the amount of waste associated with the green paper has increased. Leann. Why is this? Len: I understand that there has been a change in specifications for the green paper, starting near the beginning of August This change could be causing the machines to run poorly when making green paper. If that is the case, the cost per ton would increase for green paper. Leann also asked for a database printout providing greater detail on August's operating results. September 9 Requested by: Leann Brunswick Papermaking DepartmentAugust detail Prior to preparing a report, Leann resigned from Georgia Paper Company to start her own business. You have been asked to lake the data that Leann collected and write a memo to Jamarcus Bradshaw with a recommendation to management. Your memo should include analysis of the August data to determine whether the paper machine or the paper color explains the increase in the unit cost from July. Include any supporting schedules that are appropriate. Round all calculations to the nearest cent.
