MSI is considering outsourcing the production of the handheld control module used with some of its products. The company has rec

eived a bid from Monte Legend Co. (MLC) to produce 10,000 units of the module per year for $16 each. The following information pertains to MSI’s production of the control modules:
Direct materials $9
Direct labor $4
Variable manufacturing overhead $2
Fixed manufacturing overhead $3
Total cost per unit $18
MSI has determined that it could eliminate all variable costs if the control modules were produced externally, but none of the fixed overhead is avoidable. At this time, MSI has no specific use in mind for the space that is currently dedicated to the control module production.
Compute the difference in cost between making and buying the control module.

Answer:

If the company makes the units in-house, it will save $10,000.

Explanation:

<u>The fixed costs will remain in both options. Therefore, the fixed costs are irrelevant to the decision-making process.</u>

<u></u>

Buy:

Total cost= 10,000*16= $160,000

Make in house:

Total cost= 10,000*(9 + 4 + 2)= $150,000

If the company makes the units in-house, it will save $10,000.

Spree Company sold $769,300 of goods during the year at a cost of goods sold of $548,600. Inventory was $31,283 at the beginning
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

16.42

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of goods sold =  $548,600

Beginning inventory of the year = $31,283

Ending inventory of the year = $35,538

Now,

the Inventory turnover ratio is calculated as;

⇒ ( Cost of goods sold ) ÷ ( Average inventory of the year )

Also,

Average inventory of the year = \frac{\textup{Beginning inventory + Ending inventory}}{\textup{2}}

= \frac{\$31,283+\$35,538}{\textup{2}}

= $33,410.5

Therefore,

Inventory turnover ratio = $548,600 ÷  $33,410.5

= 16.42
