Common fixed expenses totaled $314,000 and were allocated as follows: $129,000 to the Fibers business segment and $185,000 to the Feedstocks business segment.

Required:

Prepare a segmented income statement in the contribution format for the company. Omit percentages; show only dollar amounts.

(TCO D) Fouch Company makes 30,000 units per year of a part it uses in the products it manufactures. The unit product cost of this part is computed as follows.

Direct Materials	$15.70
Direct Labor	$17.50
Variable Manufacturing Overhead	$4.50
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead	$14.60
Unit Product Cost	$52.30

An outside supplier has offered to sell the company all of these parts it needs for $51.90 a unit. If the company accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to make the part could be used to make more units of a product that is in high demand. The additional contribution margin on this other product would be $219,000 per year.

If the part were purchased from the outside supplier, all of the direct labor cost of the part would be avoided. However, $6.20 of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost being applied to the part would continue even if the part were purchased from the outside supplier. This fixed manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the company’s remaining products.

Required:

i. How much of the unit product cost of $52.30 is relevant in the decision of whether to make or buy the part?

ii. What is the net total dollar advantage (disadvantage) of purchasing the part rather than making it?

iii. What is the maximum amount the company should be willing to pay an outside supplier per unit for the part if the supplier commits to supplying all 30,000 units required each year?

(TCO D) Biello Co. manufactures and sells medals for winners of athletic and other events. Its manufacturing plant has the capacity to produce 15,000 medals each month; current monthly production is 14,250 medals. The company normally charges $115 per medal. Cost data for the current level of production are shown below.

	Direct Labor	$270,750
	Selling and Administrative	$270,075

	Selling and Administrative	$89,775

The company has just received a special one-time order for 600 medals at $102 each. For this particular order, no variable selling and administrative costs would be incurred. This order would also have no effect on fixed costs.

Required:

Should the company accept this special order? Why?

Capital Budgeting (graded)

Welcome to Week 7 Discussions! Let’s start with defining capital budgeting and decision making. What is capital budgeting? What are the differences between screening decisions and preference decisions? Do you ever have occasion to make capital budgeting decisions in your personal life?

ACCT 505 Course Projects

ACCT 505 Course Project 1  LBJ Company

COURSE PROJECT 1 INSTRUCTIONS

You have just been contracted as a budget consultant by LBJ Company, a distributor of bracelets to various retail outlets across the country. The company has done very little in the way of budgeting and at certain times of the year has experienced a shortage of cash.

You have decided to prepare a cash budget for the upcoming fourth quarter in order to show management the benefits that can be gained from proper cash planning.You have worked with accounting and other areas to gather the information assembled below.

The company sells many styles of bracelets, but all are sold for the same $10 price. Actual sales of bracelets for the last three months and budgeted sales for the next six months follow:

July (actual)	20,000
August (actual)	26,000
September (actual)	40,000
October (budget)	70,000
November (budget)	110,000
December (budget)	60,000
January (budget)	30,000
February (budget)	28,000
March (budget)	25,000

The concentration of sales in the fourth quarteris due to the Christmas holiday. Sufficient inventory should be on hand at the end of each month to supply 40% of the bracelets sold in the following month.

Suppliers are paid $4 for each bracelet. Fifty-percent of a month’s purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other 50% is paid for in the following month. All sales are on credit with no discounts. The company has found, however, that only 20% of a month’s sales are collected in the month of sale. An additional 70% is collected in the following month, and the remaining 10% is collected in the second month following sale. Bad debts have been negligible.

Monthly operating expenses for the company are given below:

Variable expenses:

Sales commissions                         4% of sales

Fixed expenses:

Advertising                                        $220,000

Rent                                                   $20,000

Salaries                                         $110,000

Utilities                                              $10,000

Insurance                                           $5,000

Depreciation                                     $18,000

Insurance is paid on an annual basis, in January of each year.

The company plans to purchase $22,000 in new equipment during October and $50,000 in new equipment during November; both purchases will be for cash. The company declares dividends of $20,000 each quarter, payable in the first month of the following quarter.

Other relevant data is given below:

Cash balance as of September 30                       $74,000

Inventory balance as of September 30             $112,000

Merchandise purchases for September            $200,000

The company maintains a minimum cash balance of at least $50,000 at the end of each month. All borrowing is done at the beginning of a month; any repayments are made at the end of a month.

The company has an agreement with a bank that allows the company to borrow the exact amount needed at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. At the end of the quarter, the company will pay the bank all of the accrued interest on the loan and as much of the loan as possible while still retaining at least $50,000 in cash.

Required:

Prepare a cash budget for the three-month period ending December 31. Include the following detailed budgets:

1.

1.     a. A sales budget, by month and in total.

2.     b. A schedule of expected cash collections from sales, by month and in total.

3.     c. A merchandise purchases budget in units and in dollars. Show the budget by month and in total.

4.     d. A schedule of expected cash disbursements for merchandise purchases, by month and in total.

5.     A cash budget. Show the budget by month and in total. Determine any borrowing that would be needed to maintain the minimum cash balance of $50,000.

ACCT 505 Course Project 2: Hampton Company

Capital Budgeting Decision

Hampton Company: The production department has been investigating possible ways to trim total production costs. One possibility currently being examined is to make the cans instead of purchasing them. The equipment needed would cost $1,000,000, with a disposal value of $200,000, and would be able to produce 27,500,000 cans over the life of the machinery. The production department estimates that approximately 5,500,000 cans would be needed for each of the next 5 years.

The company would hire six new employees. These six individuals would be full-time employees working 2,000 hours per year and earning $15.00 per hour. They would also receive the same benefits as other production employees, 15% of wages in addition to $2,000 of health benefits.

It is estimated that the raw materials will cost 30¢ per can and that other variable costs would be 10¢ per can. Because there is currently unused space in the factory, no additional fixed costs would be incurred if this proposal is accepted.

It is expected that cans would cost 50¢ each if purchased from the current supplier. The company’s minimum rate of return (hurdle rate) has been determined to be 11% for all new projects, and the current tax rate of 35% is anticipated to remain unchanged. The pricing for the company’s products as well as number of units sold will not be affected by this decision. The unit-of-production depreciation method would be used if the new equipment is purchased.

Required: 

1.     Based on the above information and using Excel, calculate the following items for this proposed equipment purchase.

·         Annual cash flows over the expected life of the equipment

·         Payback period

·         Simple rate of return

·         Net present value

·         Internal rate of return

The check figure for the total annual after-tax cash flows is $271,150.

2.     Would you recommend the acceptance of this proposal? Why or why not? Prepare a short, double-spaced paper in MS Word elaborating on and supporting your answer.
