A manager in your organization just received a special order at a price that is "below cost." The manager points to the document

and says, "These are the kinds of orders that will get you in trouble. Every sale must bear its share of the full costs of running the business. If we sell below our full cost, we'll be out of business in no time." What do you think of this remark?

Answer:

So, from a short-run perspective, so long as the sale does not affect other output prices or normal sales volume, a "below cost" sale may result in a net increase in income so long as the revenues cover the differential costs.

However, in the long run all costs must be covered or management would not reinvest in the same type of assets.

If the company must continually sell below the full cost of production then it will most likely get out of that particular business when it comes time to replace those facilities.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

COGS    3807 debit

FG          7896 debit

WIP         2397 debit

  Factory Overhead  14,100 credit

--to record the underapplication of overhead--

Explanation:

overhead rate:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

$515,000 overhead /  515,000 labor cost = $1

each labor cost generates a dollar of overhead.

221,400 x 1 =   221,400 overhead in COGS

459,200 x 1 = 459,200 overhead in Finished Goods

139,400 x 1 =   139,400 overhead in WIP inventory

Total applied  820,000

Actual            805,900

Underapplied    14,100

Now we weight each concept and determiante the portion underapplocated in each concept

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}Item&Value&Weight&Allocated\\COGS&221400&0.27&3807\\FG&459200&0.56&7896\\WIP&139400&0.17&2397\\&&&\\Total&820000&1&14100\\\end{array}\right]

user100 [1]

Since the problem assumes annual compounding, then the relationship of forward rate and spot rates is given in the equation:

f1,2 = ((s2^2 / s1) - 1)

Therefore,

f1,2 = ((1.069^2 / 1.063) - 1)

f1,2 = 0.075 = 7.5%

Forward rate is 7.5%.
