- Communication The controller of New Wave Sounds Inc. prepared the following product profitability report for management, using activity-based costing methods for allocating both the factory overhead and the marketing expenses. As such, the controller has confidence in the accuracy of this report. In addition, the controller interviewed the vice president of marketing, who provided the following insight into the companys three products: The home theater speakers are an older product that is highly recognized in the marketplace. The wireless speakers are a new product that was just recently launched. The wireless headphones are a new technology that has no competition in the marketplace, and it is hoped that they will become an important future addition to the companys product portfolio. Initial indications are that the product is well received by customers. The controller believes that the manufacturing costs for all three products are in line with expectations. Based on the information provided: 1. Calculate the ratio of gross profit to sales and the ratio of operating income to sales for each product. 2. Write a brief (one-page) memo using the product profitability report and the calculations in (a) to make recommendations to management with respect to strategies for the three products.arrow_forwardUsing the data in P4-2 and Microsoft Excel: 1. Separate the variable and fixed elements. 2. Determine the cost to be charged to the product for the year. 3. Determine the cost to be charged to factory overhead for the year. 4. Determine the plotted data points using Chart Wizard. 5. Determine R2. 6. How do these solutions compare to the solutions in P4-2 and P4-3? 7.

Does it have a specialist in cost estimation who works with this cost data? If not, who is responsible for the collection of cost information? Be as specific as possible. C. What type of cost information does the business collect and how is each type of information used? D. How important does the owner/manager believe cost information is to the success of the business? Then, write a report to the instructor summarizing the results of the interview. Content of the memo must include date of the interview, the name and title of the person interviewed, name and location of the business, type of business (service, merchandising, manufacturing) and brief description of the goods/services provided by the business, and responses to questions A-D.arrow_forward
- Matching Cost Behavior Descriptions to Cost Behavior Graphs Select the graph (A through L) that best matches the numbered (1 through 7) italicized descriptions of various cost behavior.

The cost of depreciation. The asset being depreciated is a large piece of production machinery equipment where the straight-line depreciation method is used. letter _________ 2. The cost of operating a forklift. The forklift is used to move work-in-process inventory in groups of 100 units across the factory floor. letter _________ 3. The cost of direct materials.

After that, the direct materials cost consists of a per-unit amount that decreases after a threshold of 2,500 total pounds is reached. letter _________ 4. The cost of inspecting finished goods inventory. Each unit is inspected by a quality expert who is paid the same amount for each unit inspected. letter _________ 5.
