Assume a division of Hewlett-Packard currently makes 12,000 circuit boards per year used in producing diagnostic electronic inst

ruments at a cost of $34 per board, consisting of variable costs per unit of $24 and fixed costs per unit of $10.
Further assume Sanmina-SCI offers to sell Hewlett-Packard the 12,000 circuit boards for $34 each.
If Hewlett-Packard accepts this offer, the facilities currently used to make the boards could be rented to one of Hewlett-Packard's suppliers for $46,000 per year.
In addition, $6 per unit of the fixed overhead applied to the circuit boards would be totally eliminated.
Calculate the net benefit (cost) to HP of outsourcing the component from Samina-SCI.
(Use a negative sign with your answer, if appropriate.)

Answer:

The net benefit is -$26,000

Explanation:

Given the above information,

The total cost of manufacturing 12,000 circuit boards

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Total purchase price

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Fixed overhead cost applied

= 12,000 × $6

= $72,000

The rental income = $46,000

Outsourcing cost

= Total purchase price + Fixed overhead cost applied - Rental income

= $408,000 + $72,000 - $46,000

= $434,000

Therefore, Net benefit

= Total cost of manufacturing - Outsourcing cost

=$408,000 - $434,000

= -$26,000

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

James and Short LLC

Short's capital account on July 1, 20X1 should be recorded at the fair value of contributed property minus the mortgage liability, which the partnership assumed.

Explanation:

The fair value of contributed property is the current market value of the contributed property by Short.  It is the market value that will determine how the contributed property can be valued.  The market value assumes that the contributed property is being sold in pieces and not as a whole.  This is why the value is considered a fair basis for recognizing the capital contribution of Short into the partnership.
