Grundvig Manufacturing produces several types of bolts used in aircraft. The bolts are produced in batches and grouped into three product families. Because the product families are used in different kinds of aircraft, customers also can be grouped into three categories, corresponding to the product family that they purchase. The number of units sold to each customer class is the same. The selling prices for the three product families range from 0.50 to 0.80 per unit. Historically, the costs of order entry, processing, and handling were expensed and not traced to individual customer groups. These costs are not trivial and totaled 9,000,000 for the most recent year. Recently, the company started emphasizing a cost reduction strategy with an emphasis on creating a competitive advantage. Upon investigation, management discovered that order-filling costs were driven by the number of customer orders processed with the following cost behavior: Step-fixed cost component: 50,000 per step (2,000 orders define a step) Variable cost component: 20 per order Grundvig currently has sufficient steps to process 200,000 orders. The expected customer orders for the year total 200,000. The expected usage of the order-filling activity and the average size of an order by customer category follow: As a result of cost behavior analysis, the marketing manager recommended the imposition of a charge per customer order. The charge was implemented by adding the cost per order to the price of each order (computed by using the projected ordering costs and expected orders). This ordering cost was then reduced as the size of the order increased and was eliminated as the order size reached 2,000 units. Within a short period of communicating this new price information to customers, the average order size for all three product families increased to 2,000 units. Required: 1. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Grundvig traditionally has expensed order-filling costs. What is the most likely reason for this practice? 2. Calculate the cost per order for each customer category. (Note: Round to two decimal places.) 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Calculate the reduction in order-filling costs produced by the change in pricing strategy (assuming that resource spending is reduced as much as possible and that the total units sold remain unchanged). Explain how exploiting customer activity information produced this cost reduction. Would any other internal activities benefit from this pricing strategy?
Ottis, Inc., uses 640,000 plastic housing units each year in its production of paper shredders. The cost of placing an order is 30. The cost of holding one unit of inventory for one year is 15.00. Currently, Ottis places 160 orders of 4,000 plastic housing units per year. Required: 1. Compute the economic order quantity. 2. Compute the ordering, carrying, and total costs for the EOQ. 3. How much money does using the EOQ policy save the company over the policy of purchasing 4,000 plastic housing units per order?
Man OFort Inc. produces two different styles of door handles, standard and curved. The door handles go through a joint production molding process costing 29,000 per batch and producing 2,000 standard door handles and 1,000 curved door handles at the split-off point. Both door handles undergo additional production processes after the split-off point, but could be sold at that point: the standard style for 4 per door handle and the curved style for 2 per door handle. Determine the amount of joint production costs allocated to each style of door handle using the market value at split-off method.

What are the prime costs? What are the conversion costs? What is the total product cost? What is the total period cost?

Taylor Company produces two industrial cleansers that use the same liquid chemical input: Pocolimpio and Maslimpio. Pocolimpio uses two quarts of the chemical for every unit produced, and Maslimpio uses five quarts. Currently, Taylor has 6,000 quarts of the material in inventory. All of the material is imported. For the coming year, Taylor plans to import 6,000 quarts to produce 1,000 units of Pocolimpio and 2,000 units of Maslimpio. The detail of each products unit contribution margin is as follows: Taylor Company has received word that the source of the material has been shut down by embargo. Consequently, the company will not be able to import the 6,000 quarts it planned to use in the coming years production. There is no other source of the material. Required: 1. Compute the total contribution margin that the company would earn if it could import the 6,000 quarts of the material. 2. Determine the optimal usage of the companys inventory of 6,000 quarts of the material. Compute the total contribution margin for the product mix that you recommend. 3. Assume that Pocolimpio uses three direct labor hours for every unit produced and that Maslimpio uses two hours. A total of 6,000 direct labor hours is available for the coming year. a. Formulate the linear programming problem faced by Taylor Company. To do so, you must derive mathematical expressions for the objective function and for the materials and labor constraints. b. Solve the linear programming problem using the graphical approach. c. Compute the total contribution margin produced by the optimal mix.
