Dorcan Corporation manufactures and sells T-shirts imprinted with college names and slogans. Last year, the shirts sold for $7.50 each, and the variable cost to manufacture them was $2.25 per unit. The company needed to sell 20,000 shirts to break-even. The after tax net income last year was $5,040. Donnelly's expectations for the coming year include the following: (CMA adapted)

∙ The sales price of the T-shirts will be $9.
�� Variable cost to manufacture will increase by one-third.
∙ Fixed costs will increase by 10%.
∙ The income tax rate of 40% will be unchanged.

Sales for the coming year are expected to exceed last year's by 1,000 units. If this occurs, Dorcan's sales volume in the coming year will be:

23,400 units.

21,960 units.

22,600 units.

Supler Corporation produces a part used in the manufacture of one of its products. The unit product cost is $18, computed as follows:

Direct materials $ 8

Direct labor 4

Variable manufacturing overhead 1

Fixed manufacturing overhead 5

Unit product cost $ 18

An outside supplier has offered to provide the annual requirement of 4,000 of the parts for only $14 each. The company estimates that 60% of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost above could be eliminated if the parts are purchased from the outside supplier. Assume that direct labor is an avoidable cost in this decision. Based on these data, the financial advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing the parts from the outside supplier would be:

$2 per unit on average

($4) per unit on average

$1 per unit on average

($1) per unit on average

Two products, QI and VH, emerge from a joint process. Product QI has been allocated $9,600 of the total joint costs of $12,000.

If product QI is processed further and sold, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company compared with sale in its unprocessed form directly after the split-off point?
