Making product mix decisions
Learning Objective 3
2. CM per MHr, Regular $441
Tread Light produces two types of exercise treadmills: regular and deluxe. The exercise craze is such that Tread Light could use all its available machine hours to produce either model. The two models are processed through the same production departments. Data for both models are as follows:
| Per Unit | ||
| Deluxe | Regular | |
| Sales price | $1,030 | $610 |
| Costs: | ||
| Direct materials | 320 | 130 |
| Direct labor | 88 | 180 |
| Variable manufacturing overhead | 270 | 90 |
| Fixed manufacturing overhead* | 102 | 34 |
| Variable operating expenses | 121 | 63 |
| Total costs | 901 | 497 |
| Operating income | $ 129 | $ 113 |
Requirements
1. What is the constraint?
2 Which model should Tread Light produce? (Hint: Use the allocation of fixed manufacturing overhead to determine the proportion of machine hours used by each product.)
3. If Tread Light should produce both models, compute the mix that will maximize operating income.

Question Content Area
Rough Stuff makes 2 products: khaki shorts and khaki pants for men. Each product passes through the cutting machine area, which is the chief constraint during production. Khaki shorts take 15 minutes on the cutting machine and have a contribution margin per pair of shorts of $15. Khaki pants take 24 minutes on the cutting machine and have a contribution margin per pair of pants of $30. If it is assumed that Rough Stuff has 4,800 hours available on the cutting machine to service a minimum demand for each product of 3,000 units, how much will profits increase if 104 more hours of machine time can be obtained?
