Autoliv produces air bag systems that it sells to automobile manufacturers throughout the world. Assume the company has a capaci

ty of 50 million units per year, it is currently producing at an annual rate of 40 million units. Autoliv has received an order from a Japanese manufacturer to purchase 100,000 units at $65 each. Budgeted costs for 40 million and 45 million units are as follows:
(in thousands, except costs per unit) 40 Million Units 45 Million Units
Manufacturing costs
Direct materials $ 560,000 $ 630,000
Direct labor 220,000 247,500
Factory overhead 1,780,000 1,822,500
Total 2,560,000 2,700,000
Selling and administrative 1,120,000 1,125,000
Total $ 3,680,000 $ 3,825,000
Costs per unit
Manufacturing $ 64.00 $ 60.00
Selling and administrative 28.00 25.00
Total $ 92.00 $ 85.00
Sales to auto manufacturers are priced at $120 per unit, but the sales manager believes the company should aggressively seek the Japanese business even if it results in a loss of $20 per unit. She believes obtaining this order would open up several new markets for the company's product. The general manager commented that the company cannot tighten its belt to absorb the $2,000,000 loss ($20 × 100,000) it would incur if the order is accepted.
(a) Determine the financial implications of accepting the order. (Hint: Use the high-low method to determine variable costs per unit.)

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. The variable cost per unit will be:

= (3,825,000 - 3,680,000) / (45million - 40 million)

= 0.029

Then, the financial order of accepting the order will be:

Contribution margin = Unit selling price - Unit

= 65 - 29

= 36

Since the size of the order is 100,000, the financial impact of accepting the order will be:

= 36 × 100,000

= 3,600,000

b. The differential analysis will be:

Contribution from special order = 3,600,000

Opportunity cost {100,000 = 120,000,000 - 29,000,000 = 9,100,000

Net disadvantage of accepting order will then be:

= 3600000 - 9100000

= 5,500,000

Neil is developing his marketing strategy. Which of these is NOT a requirement Neil has to follow based on the Telephone Consume
krok68 [10]

The TCPA restricts the making of telemarketing calls and uses automatic telephone dialing systems and artificial or prerecorded voice messages.

So that it will cope with a growing wide variety of telephone advertising calls, Congress enacted 1991 the phone consumer safety Act (TCPA). The TCPA restricts the making of telemarketing calls and the use of automated telephone dialing structures and synthetic or prerecorded voice messages.

The TCPA restricts telemarketing calls made to: Any residential phone subscriber before the hour of eight a.m. or after nine p.m. (known as party's neighborhood time) A residential phone quantity on the country-wide do-now not-name registry.

Normally speaking, the TCPA prohibits the usage of an ATDS or prerecorded message to touch cellular telephones, and prerecorded telemarketing messages to contact residential phones, except the recipient has provided and now not revoked “consent” to acquire the call/text.

cestrela7 [59]

Delectable's financial statements will show Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of $1,000 on balance sheet and Bad debts expense of $950 on Income statement

Here, we are to determine the records of bad debts expenses on Income statement and Allowance for doubtful accounts on Balance sheet.

Bad debts expense = Estimated bad debts - credit balance in allowance account

Bad debts expense = $1,000 - $50

Bad debts expense = $950

                            Journal Entry

General journal                                  Debit   Credit

Bad debts expense                            $950

Allowance for Doubtful accounts                   $950

(Bad debts expense recorded)

The allowance for doubtful account will be $1,000. ($950+$10) because the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had $50 credit balance.
