AAA Appliances Inc. has two production departments. The nature of the process is such that no units remain in process in Finishing at the end of the period. At the beginning of the period, 10,000 units with a cost of 30,000 were transferred from Assembly to Finishing. Finishing incurred costs of 8,800 for materials, 7,200 for labor, and 8,800 for factory overhead, and finished 10,000 units during the month. a. Determine the unit cost for the month in Finishing. b. Determine the unit cost of the products transferred to finished goods.
Dura-Conduit Corporation manufactures plastic conduit that is used in the cable industry. A conduit is a tube that encircles and protects the underground cable. In the process for making the plastic conduit, called extrusion, the melted plastic (resin) is pressed through a die to form a tube. Scrap is produced in this process. Information from the cost of production reports for three months is as follows, assuming that inventory remains constant: Assume that there is one-half pound of resin per foot of the finished product. a. Determine the resin materials cost per foot of finished product for each month. Round to the nearest whole cent. b. Determine the ratio of the number of resin pounds output in conduit by the number of pounds input into the process for each month. Round percentages to one decimal place. c. Interpret the resin materials cost per foot for the three months. Use the information in (a) and (b) to explain what is happening. d. Determine the conversion cost per foot of finished product for each month and interpret the result.

Ingles Corporation is a manufacturer of tables sold to schools, restaurants, hotels, and other institutions. The table tops are manufactured by Ingles, but the table legs are purchased from an outside supplier. The Assembly Department takes a manufactured table top and attaches the four purchased table legs. It takes 16 minutes of labor to assemble a table. The company follows a policy of producing enough tables to ensure that 40 percent of next months sales are in the finished goods inventory. Ingles also purchases sufficient materials to ensure that materials inventory is 60 percent of the following months scheduled production. Ingless sales budget in units for the next quarter is as follows: Ingless ending inventories in units for July 31 are as follows: Required: 1. Calculate the number of tables to be produced during August. 2. Disregarding your response to Requirement 1, assume the required production units for August and September are 2,100 and 1,900, respectively, and the July 31 materials inventory is 4,000 units. Compute the number of table legs to be purchased in August. 3. Assume that Ingles Corporation will produce 2,340 units in September. How many employees will be required for the Assembly Department in September? (Fractional employees are acceptable since employees can be hired on a part-time basis. Assume a 40-hour week and a 4-week month.) (CMA adapted)

Phono Company manufactures a plastic toy cell phone. The following standards have been established for the toys materials and labor inputs: During the first week of July, the company had the following results: The purchasing agent located a new source of slightly higher-quality plastic, and this material was used during the first week in July. Also, a new manufacturing layout was implemented on a trial basis. The new layout required a slightly higher level of skilled labor. The higher-quality material has no effect on labor utilization. Similarly, the new manufacturing approach has no effect on material usage. (Note: Round all variances to the nearest dollar.) Required: 1. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the materials price and usage variances. Assuming that the materials variances are essentially attributable to the higher quality of materials, would you recommend that the purchasing agent continue to buy this quality, or should the usual quality be purchased? Assume that the quality of the end product is not affected significantly. 2. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances. Assuming that the labor variances are attributable to the new manufacturing layout, should it be continued or discontinued? Explain. 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Refer to Requirement 2. Suppose that the industrial engineer argued that the new layout should not be evaluated after only one week. His reasoning was that it would take at least a week for the workers to become efficient with the new approach. Suppose that the production is the same the second week and that the actual labor hours were 13,200 and the labor cost was 132,000. Should the new layout be adopted? Assume the variances are attributable to the new layout. If so, what would be the projected annual savings?
