On your perspective as the manager of PasadoBa Division, would you agree that your division supply the Product81 to the SureNa Division for P5 each as requested? Show all computations, and defend your answer.
You are the manager of PasadoBa Division of the Delikado Company. Your division’s main product is the Product81 which sells to its regular customers for P7.50 each. Product81 has a variable
Purchased from outside supplier............................................... P22.50
Product81 from PasadoBa Division................................................. 5.00
Other variable cost ........... 14.00
Fixed overhead and administration ...... 8.00
Total cost per brake unit ............. P49.50
Although the P5 price for the Product81 represents a discounted regular P7.50 price, the manager of the SureNa Division believes that the price scheme is necessary if his division is to get the contract in supplying large multinational companies. He has heard through an “insider” that one of the biggest prospective customer plans to reject his bid if it is more than P50 per unit. Furthermore, if the SureNa Division will be forced to buy from the outside supplier, it will either not get the contract or it will suffer loss at a time when it is already operating at only its current capacity. Product2ndSem’s manager argues that price concession is peremptory to the financial performance of both his division and the company as as whole. In addition, Delikado Company uses return on investment (ROI) to measure divisional performance.
