a.
80% and RO 36.000
b.
90% and RO 40.500

Your company has received an order for 20 units of aproduct. Th e labor cost to produce the item is $9.50 per hour. Th esetup cost for the item is $60 and material costs are $25 per unit. Th e item is sold for $92. Th e learning rate is 80 percent. Overheadis assessed at a rate of 55 percent of unit labor cost.(a) Determine the average unit cost for the 20 units if the fi rstunit takes four hours.(b) Determine the minimum number of units that need to bemade before the selling price meets or exceeds the averageunit cost.
Assume the same information for Northern Defense as in Exercise 10-33, except that Northern Defense uses an 85% incremental unit-time learning model as a basis for predicting direct manufacturing labor-hours. (An 85% learning curve means b = -0.234465.)
Q. Calculate the total variable costs of producing 2, 3, and 4 units.

Cost terms: a. Opportunity cost b. Period cost c. Product cost d. Direct labor cost e. Selling cost f. Conversion cost g. Prime cost h. Direct materials cost i. Manufacturing overhead cost j. Administrative cost Settings: 1. Marcus Armstrong, manager of Timmins Optical, estimated that the cost of plastic, wages of the technician producing the lenses, and overhead totaled 30 per pair of single-vision lenses. 2. Linda was having a hard time deciding whether to return to school. She was concerned about the salary she would have to give up for the next 4 years. 3. Randy Harris is the finished goods warehouse manager for a medium-sized manufacturing firm. He is paid a salary of 90,000 per year. As he studied the financial statements prepared by the local certified public accounting firm, he wondered how his salary was treated. 4. Jamie Young is in charge of the legal department at company headquarters. Her salary is 95,000 per year. She reports to the chief executive officer. 5. All factory costs that are not classified as direct materials or direct labor. 6. The new product required machining, assembly, and painting. The design engineer asked the accounting department to estimate the labor cost of each of the three operations. The engineer supplied the estimated labor hours for each operation. 7. After obtaining the estimate of direct labor cost, the design engineer estimated the cost of the materials that would be used for the new product. 8. The design engineer totaled the costs of materials and direct labor for the new product. 9. The design engineer also estimated the cost of converting the raw materials into their final form. 10. The auditor for a soft drink bottling plant pointed out that the depreciation on the delivery trucks had been incorrectly assigned to product cost (through overhead). Accordingly, the depreciation charge was reallocated on the income statement. Required: Match the cost terms with the settings. More than one cost classification may be associated with each setting; however, select the setting that seems to fit the item best. When you are done, each cost term will be used just once.arrow_forwardAssume that at the beginning of 20x2, Cicleta trained the 2 assembly workers in a new approach that had the objective of increasing the efficiency of the assembly process. Cicleta also began moving toward a JIT purchasing and manufacturing system. When JIT is fully implemented, the demand for expediting is expected to be virtually eliminated. It is expected to take two to three years for full implementation. Assume that receiving cost is a step-fixed cost with steps of 1,500 orders. The other three activities employ resources that are acquired as used and needed. At the end of 20x2, the following results were reported for the four activities: Required: 1. Prepare a trend report that shows the non-value-added costs for each activity for 20x1 and 20x2 and the change in costs for the two periods. Discuss the reports implications. 2. Explain the role of activity reduction for receiving and for expediting. What is the expected value of SQ for each activity after JIT is fully implemented? 3. What if at the end of 20x2, the selling price of a competing product is reduced by 27 per unit? Assume that the firm produces and sells 20,000 units of its product and that its product is associated only with the four activities being considered. By virtue of the waste-reduction savings, can the competitors price reduction be matched without reducing the unit profit margin of the product that prevailed at the beginning of the year? If not, how much more waste reduction is needed to achieve this outcome? In this case, what price decision would you recommend?arrow_forward
