Answer:

If the offer is accepted, the income will decrease in $7,500.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Harrison Ford Company has been approached by a new customer with an offer to purchase 10,000 units of its model IJ4 for $5 each.

Unitary variable cost:

Direct Materials= $1.75

Direct Labor= $2.50

Variable Overhead= $1.50

1) Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not have into account the fixed costs.

Accepting the offer:

Relevant cost= Unitary variable cost

Relevant cost= 1.75 + 2.5 + 1.50= $5.75

Relevant benefits= $5

2) Effect on income= 10,000*5 - 10,000*5.75= -$7,500

If the offer is accepted, the income will decrease in $7,500.

QveST [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. Overhead rates

For Molding Deptt

= Total Estimated overhead ÷ Total Machine hours

= $400,000 ÷ 5,000

= $80 per machine hour

For Polishing Deptt

= Total Estimated overhead ÷ Total Labor hours

= $80,000 ÷ 20,000

= $4 per machine hour

2. Overheads assigned to Form A is

= (80 × 3500) + (4 × 5000)

= $300,000

Overheads assigned to Form B is

= (80 × 1500) + (4 × 15000)

= $180,000

Now

Overhead cost per unit

Form A = $300,000 ÷ 30,000 = $10 per unit

Form B = $180,000 ÷ 50,000 = $3.6 per unit
