Answer:
If linen department is dropped operating income of the company will decrease.
Explanation:
That is because the cotrollable margin of the department is positive:
controllable margin = contribution margin - controllable fixed costs
$605,000-($800,000-380,000) = 185,000
That means that the Linen department helps to reduced fixed cost that are not generated by this department and that will keep existing wether the department is closed or not.
In addittion the Hardware department will loose 19% of its sales if the Linen department is closed. Thus will result in a reduction of the cntribution margin of the hardware deparment too.
Answer:
Financial advantage of accepting supplier's offer = $21,000
Explanation:
Relevant costs saved by outsourcing production:
Direct materials $3.70
Direct labor $12.00
Variable manufacturing overhead $2.30
Fixed manufacturing overhead $9.00 * 1/3 = $3
Total cost per part $21.00
Total savings per year = $21 * 29,000 = $609,000
Additional rental income = $79,000
Total = $688,000
Cost of purchasing 29,000 parts = $23 * 29,000 = $667,000
Financial advantage of accepting supplier's offer = $21,000
