Answer: to historical performance or budget

Explanation:

A profit center in a business is a division that is able to make revenues independently and contribute to the revenue of the entire business. In evaluating the performance of a profit center manager, it is best to compare the performance to a budget or their historical performance.

This is because profit centers engage in different businesses and so their revenue making style will be unique. Some profit centers will make more than others because of the goods they produce or the way they produce it. It is therefore best to compare a profit center to an internal measure such as the budget and historical performance.

If the profit center exceeds either of these then they are performing well.

In the past, Taylor Industries has used a fixed−time period inventory system that involved taking a complete inventory count of
N76 [4]

Answer:

a) Taylor Industries can successfully cut back its labor cost in inventory stockrooms by counting only high-value items.  These items are determined by reference to their Annual Usage values.  The items' annual usage values should be used as the activity cost pool for accumulating and allocating labor cost in inventory stockrooms.  Taylor Industries can establish a benchmark or cutoff point so that only the items meeting this benchmark are counted.  For example, the items with annual usage value above $5,000 should be included in the items to be counted.  This strategy will reduce the number of items to be counted and therefore the labor cost.

b) Since item 15 is critical to Taylor Industries' continued operations, it should be classified as a direct materials cost and not an overhead cost.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

a random sample of 20 of Taylor's items:

ITEM NUMBER   ANNUAL USAGE    ITEM NUMBER    ANNUAL USAGE

1                               $ 1,500                      11                       $ 13,000

3                                2,200                      13                        42,000

4                              50,000                     14                           9,900

5                                9,600                     15                            1,200

6                                   750                      16                         10,200

7                                2,000                      17                          4,000

8                               11,000                      18                         61,000

9                                  800                       19                         3,500

10                            15,000                      20                        2,900
