Question Completion:

Fogerty Company makes two products, titanium Hubs and Sprockets. Data regarding the two products follow:

                                    Direct Labor     Production

                                 hours per unit          Units

Hubs                                  0.7                 27,000

Sprockets                          0.3                59,000

 Answer:

Fogerty Company

The unit product cost of each product according to the ABC system:

                                           Hubs      Sprockets

Unit production cost       $46.22         $22.46

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                          Hubs  Sprockets

Direct materials per unit    $24      $17

Direct labor rate per hour  $14       $14

Direct labor per unit           $9.80   $4.20 ($14 *0.3)

Estimated Activity  Activity Cost Pool Overhead     Hubs  Sprockets  Total

                              (Activity Measure)      Cost

Machine setups (number of setups)    $ 27,000       125         100       225

Special processing (machine-hours) $ 258,000   4,300             0    4,300

General factory (organization-sustaining) $ 124,800 NA          NA        NA

Total overhead expenses                   $409,800

Activity rate:

Machine setups = $120 ($27,000/225)

Special processing = $60 ($258,000/4,300)

General factory = $62,400 ($124,800/2)

2. The unit product cost of each product according to the ABC:

Overhead costs:

                                    Hubs      Sprockets    Total

Machine setups       $15,000      $12,000       $27,000

Special processing 258,000                  0      258,000

General factory         62,400        62,400       124,800

Total overhead     $335,400      $74,400    $409,800

Units produced         27,000        59,000        86,000

Overhead per unit    $12.42            $1.26

                                            Hubs      Sprockets

Direct materials per unit  $24.00          $17.00

Direct labor per unit           $9.80           $4.20

Overhead cost per unit    $12.42            $1.26

Unit production cost       $46.22         $22.46

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Project Kansas City

Explanation:

Payback period: It reflects the period at which the investor recovered their invested money. It always shows in years.  

IRR: It refers to the internal rate of return. It shows an interest rate at which the Net present value is zero or the initial investment and the present value of all years cash flow would be equal

In the question, it is mentioned that Project Kansas city has a payback period of 27 months and IRR is 6% whereas the project Spokane has a payback period of 25 months and IRR is 5%.

So if we compare both the projects based on IRR, the project Kansas city has higher IRR which means it produces a higher return in the near future.

7) A book publisher has fixed costs of $300,000 and variable costs per book of $8.00. The book sells for $23.00 per copy. a. How
Naddik [55]

Answer:

a. $20,000

b. i. Higher

c.  ii. Lower

Explanation:

a. We know that the break even in units formula equals to

= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= ($300,000) ÷ ($23 - $8)

= $300,000 ÷ 15

= $20,000

And, Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

So, we use contribution margin per unit also.

b. Now if we assume that the fixed cost would be $400,000

So, the new break even equal to

= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= ($400,000) ÷ ($23 - $8)

= $400,000 ÷ 15

= $26,666.67

So it is higher

c. Now if we assume that the new variable cost would be $5

So, the new break even equal to

= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= ($300,000) ÷ ($23 - $5)

= $300,000 ÷ 18

= $16,666.67

So it is lower

Comfy Fit Company manufactures two types of university sweatshirts, the Swoop and the Rufus, with unit contribution margins of $
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Comfy Fit Company

Contribution margin per hour of machine time:

Contribution margin for 1 hour of machine time will be equal to:

Swoop = $5 x 60/6 = $50 per hour

Rufus = $15 x 60/6 = $150 per hour

Explanation:

If Contribution margin:

Swoop = $5 for 6 minutes' machine time

Rufus = $15 for 6 minutes' machine time

Therefore, contribution margin per hour will be

Contribution x 60/6.

Since 60 minutes make an hour, there will be ten times more contribution for each.

This gives an hourly contribution of $50 ($5 x 10) and $150 ($15 x 10).
