Segment variable costing income statement and effect on operating income of change in operations Valdespin Company manufactures three sizes of camping tentssmall (S), medium (M), and large (L). The income statement has consistently indicated a net loss for the M size, and management is considering three proposals: (1) continue Size M, (2) discontinue Size M and reduce total output accordingly, or (3) discontinue Size M and conduct an advertising campaign to expand the sales of Size S so that the entire plant capacity can continue to be used. If Proposal 2 is selected and Size M is discontinued and production curtailed, the annual fixed production costs and fixed operating expenses could be reduced by 46,080 and 32,240, respectively. If Proposal 3 is selected, it is anticipated that an additional annual expenditure of 34,560 for the rental of additional warehouse space would yield an additional 130% in Size S sales volume. It is also assumed that the increased production of Size S would utilize the plant facilities released by the discontinuance of Size M. The sales and costs have been relatively stable over the past few years, and they are expected to remain so for the foreseeable future. The income statement for the past year ended June 30, 20Y9, is as follows: Instructions 1. Prepare an income statement for the past year in the variable costing format. Use the following headings: Data for each size should be reported through contribution margin. The fixed costs should be deducted from the total contribution margin, as reported in the Total column, to determine operating income. 2. Based on the income statement prepared in (1) and the other data presented, determine the amount by which total annual operating income would be reduced below its present level if Proposal 2 is accepted. 3. Prepare an income statement in the variable costing format, indicating the projected annual operating income if Proposal 3 is accepted. Use the following headings: Data for each style should be reported through contribution margin. The fixed costs should be deducted from the total contribution margin as reported in the Total column. For purposes of this problem, the expenditure of 34,560 for the rental of additional warehouse space can be added to the fixed operating expenses. 4. By how much would total annual operating income increase above its present level if Proposal 3 is accepted? Explain.
Youngstown Construction plans to discontinue its rooting segment. Last year, this segment generated a contribution margin of $65.000 and incurred $70.000 in fixed costs. Discontinuing the segment will allow the company to avoid half of the fixed costs. What effect is expected to occur to the companys overall profit? A. a decrease of $5,000 B. a decrease of $30,000 C. a decrease of $5,000 D. an increase of $30,000

Calculate the gross margin for each of the following cost allocation methods, assuming B62 sold just one unit of these goods for $400. Provide your calculations. A. first-in, first-out (FIFO) B. last-in, first-out (LIFO) C. weighted average (AVG)
Break-even sales under present and proposed conditions Portmann Company, operating at full capacity, sold 1,000,000 units at a price of 188 per unit during the current year. Its income statement is as follows: The division of costs between variable and fixed is as follows: Management is considering a plant expansion program for the following year that will permit an increase of 11,280,000 in yearly sales. The expansion will increase fixed costs by 5,000,000 but will not affect the relationship between sales and variable costs. Instructions 1. Determine the total variable costs and the total fixed costs for the current year. 2. Determine (a) the unit variable cost and (b) the unit contribution margin for the current year. 3. Compute the break-even sales (units) for the current year. 4. Compute the break-even sales (units) under the proposed program for the following year. 5. Determine the amount of sales (units) that would be necessary under the proposed program to realize the 60,000,000 of operating income that was earned in the current year. 6. Determine the maximum operating income possible with the expanded plant. 7. If the proposal is accepted and sales remain at the current level, what will the operating income or loss be for the following year? 8.

Product pricing using the cost-plus approach methods; differential analysis for accepting additional business Crystal Displays Inc. recently began production of a new product, flat panel displays, which required the investment of 1,500,000 in assets. The costs of producing and selling 5,000 units of flat panel displays are estimated as follows: Crystal Displays Inc. is currently considering establishing a selling price for flat panel displays. The president of Crystal Displays has decided to use the cost-plus approach to product pricing and has indicated that the displays must earn a 15% return on invested assets. Instructions 1. Determine the amount of desired profit from the production and sale of flat panel displays. 2. Assuming that the product cost method is used, determine (A) the cost amount per unit, (B) the markup percentage, and (C) the selling price of flat panel displays. 3. (Appendix) Assuming that the total cost method is used, determine (A) the cost amount per unit, (B) the markup percentage (rounded to two decimal places), and (C) the selling price of flat panel displays. (Round markup to nearest whole dollar.) 4. (Appendix) Assuming that the variable cost method is used, determine (A) the cost amount per unit, (B) the markup percentage (rounded to two decimal places), and (C) the selling price of flat panel displays. (Round markup to nearest whole dollar.) 5. Comment on any additional considerations that could influence establishing the selling price for flat panel displays. 6. Assume that as of August 1, 3,000 units of flat panel displays have been produced and sold during the current year. Analysis of the domestic market indicates that 2,000 additional units are expected to be sold during the remainder of the year at the normal product price determined under the product cost method. On August 3, Crystal Displays Inc. received an offer from Maple Leaf Visual Inc. for 800 units of flat panel displays at 225 each. Maple Leaf Visual Inc. will market the units in Canada under its own brand name, and no variable selling and administrative expenses associated with the sale will be incurred by Crystal Displays Inc. The additional business is not expected to affect the domestic sales of flat panel displays, and the additional units could be produced using existing factory, selling, and administrative capacity. A. Prepare a differential analysis of the proposed sale to Maple Leaf Visual Inc. B. Based on the differential analysis in part (A), should the proposal be accepted?
