Integrated Masters Inc. (IMI) is presently operating at 80% of capacity and manufacturing 116,000 units of a patented electronic

component. The cost structure of the component is as follows:
Raw materials $6.10 per unit
Direct labor 6.10 per unit
Variable overhead 8.10 per unit
Fixed overhead $363,000 per year

An Italian firm has offered to purchase 20,100 of the components at a price of $24.5 per unit, FOB IMI's plant. The normal selling price is $32.3 per component. This special order will not affect any of IMI's "normal" business. Management calculated that the cost per component is $23.3, so it is reluctant to accept this special order.

Required:

a. Calculate the fixed overhead per unit?
b. Is the cost calculation appropriate?
c. Should the offer from the Italian firm be accepted?

Answer:

a. $3.13 per unit

b. No

c Yes

Explanation:

The computation is shown below

a. Fixed overhead per unit is

= Fixed overhead ÷ Number of units manufactured

= $363,000 ÷ 116,000 units

= $3.13 per unit      

b. The cost calculation is not appropriate because the fixed overhead per unit is not be involved while calculating the cost

c. Now the acceptance of the offer should be based on total relevant cost which is            

Total relevant cost

= $6.1 + $6.1 + $8.1

= $20.3  

Since the offer is accepted because total relevant cost is less than the offered purchase price i.e $24.50
