A customer has requested that Lewelling Corporation fill a special order for 2,100 units of product S47 for $26 a unit. While th

e product would be modified slightly for the special order, product S47's normal unit product cost is $19.20:
Direct materials $ 5.70
Direct labor 3.00
Variable manufacturing overhead 2.80
Fixed manufacturing overhead 7.70
Unit product cost $ 19.20
Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The customer would like modifications made to product S47 that would increase the variable costs by $1.30 per unit and that would require an investment of $11,000.00 in special molds that would have no salvage value. This special order would have no effect on the company's other sales. The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:

Answer:

The annual financial advantage for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be: $16,720

Explanation:

Fixed Manufacturing Overheads are irrelevant for this decision since The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order and no need to alter existing capacity.

<u>Incremental Costs and Revenues - special order</u>

Sales ( 2,100 units × $26 )                                                  54,600

Direct materials ( 2,100 units × $ 5.70 )                               (11,970)

Direct labor ( 2,100 units × $3.00 )                                      ( 6,300)

Variable manufacturing overhead  ( 2,100 units ×$2.80)  (5,880)

Incremental Variable Cost ( 2,100 units × $1.30)              ($2,730)

Investment in Special Molds                                             ($11,000)

Incremental Income/(loss)                                                  $16,720

Therefore, The annual financial advantage will be  $16,720

Findell Corporation is considering two projects, A and B, and it has gathered the following estimates for the projects Project A
Vilka [71]

Answer:

a. 1.096

Explanation:

The present value index is the same as the profitablility index(PI), which is computed by dividing the present value of future cash inflows by the initial investment(the present value of cash outflows). A profitability of above 1 means that the project is viable as the numerator(PV of cash inflows) exceeds the denominator( initial cash outlay).

Project A PI index= Present value of cash inflows/Present value of cash outflows

Project A PI index= $84,360/$77,000

Project A PI index= 1.096

Complete the following sentence. When the long run average cost (LRAC) curve has a positive slope, it implies there are:
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

It implies there are diseconomies of scale.

Explanation:

It implies there are diseconomies of scale in the industry

Because as the quantity of units output increase, the cost also increase. While in economies of scale, the slope for the LRAC will be negative, as each increase in output lowers the cost.

When this occurs, there is a lower change of monopoly in the industry, as the larger firm also faces the larger cost, so the supply tend to be more diverse.

While a, indifined negative slope will generate monopolies as their cost become lower at gerater the output.

mash [69]

The contribution margin per unit is calculated by subtracting the variable cost per unit from the selling price.

Selling price is $60

Contribution margin per unit?

The total sales in dollar value are $15,000, The sales in units equal to

=$15,000 /60

=250 units

Total variable costs will include variable manufacturing cost plus variable selling and administrative costs

=$4000 + $2000

=$6000

variable cost per unit will be the total variable cost divide by units produced

=$6000/250

=$24

Contribution margin per unit = $60- $24

=$36
