ACCT 505 Week 1 Case Study

Top Switch Inc. designs and manufactures switches used in telecommunications. Serious flooding throughout the state of Tennessee affected Top Switch’s facilities. Inventory was completely ruined, and the company’s computer system, including all accounting records, was destroyed.

Before the unfortunate incident, recovery specialists cleaned the buildings. The company controller is very nervous and anxious to recover whatever records he can to support the insurance claim for the destroyed inventory. After consulting with the cost accountant, they decide to retrieve the previous year’s annual report for the beginning inventory numbers. In addition, they also agreed that they need first quarter cost data.

The cost accountant was working on the first quarter results before the storm hit, and to his surprise, the report was still in his desk drawer. After reviewing the data , the information shows the following information: Material purchases were $ 325,000; Direct Labor was $ 220,000. Further discussions between the controller and the cost accountant revealed that sales were $ 1,350,000 and the gross margin was 30% of sales. The cost accountant also discovered, while sifting through the information, that cost of goods available for sale was $ 1,020,000 at cost. While assessing the damage, the controller determined that the prime costs were $ 545,000 up to the time of the damage and that manufacturing overhead is 65% of conversion cost. The cost accountant is not sure about all of this, but he decides to see what he can do with the information.

The beginning inventory numbers are as follows:

Raw Materials, $ 41,000
Work in Process, $ 56,000
Finished Goods, $ 35,000

Required:

Determine the amount of cost in the Raw Materials, Work in Process, and Finished Goods Inventory as of the date of the storm. ( Hint: You may wish to reconstruct the various schedules and statements that would have been affected by the company’s accounts during the period.)

ACCT 505 Week 3 Case Study II

Springfield Express is a luxury passenger carrier in Texas. All seats are first class, and the following data are available:

Number of seats per passenger train car

90

Average load factor (percentage of seats filled)

70%

Average full passenger fare

$160

Average variable cost per passenger

$70

Fixed operating cost per month

$3,150,000

What is the break-even point in passengers and revenues per month? What is the break-even point in number of passenger train cars per month? If Springfield Express raises its average passenger fare to $ 190, it is estimated that the average load factor will decrease to 60 percent. What will be the monthly break-even point in number of passenger cars? (Refer to original data.) Fuel cost is a significant variable cost to any railway. If crude oil increases by $ 20 per barrel, it is estimated that variable cost per passenger will rise to $ 90. What will be the new break-even point in passengers and in number of passenger train cars? Springfield Express has experienced an increase in variable cost per passenger to $ 85 and an increase in total fixed cost to $ 3,600,000. The company has decided to raise the average fare to $ 205. If the tax rate is 30 percent, how many passengers per month are needed to generate an after-tax profit of $ 750,000? (Use original data). Springfield Express is considering offering a discounted fare of $ 120, which the company believes would increase the load factor to 80 percent. Only the additional seats would be sold at the discounted fare. Additional monthly advertising cost would be $ 180,000. How much pre-tax income would the discounted fare provide Springfield Express if the company has 50 passenger train cars per day, 30 days per month? Springfield Express has an opportunity to obtain a new route that would be traveled 20 times per month. The company believes it can sell seats at $ 175 on the route, but the load factor would be only 60 percent. Fixed cost would increase by $ 250,000 per month for additional personnel, additional passenger train cars, maintenance, and so on. Variable cost per passenger would remain at $ 70. Should the company obtain the route? How many passenger train cars must Springfield Express operate to earn pre-tax income of $ 120,000 per month on this route? If the load factor could be increased to 75 percent, how many passenger train cars must be operated to earn pre-tax income of $ 120,000 per month on this route? What qualitative factors should be considered by Springfield Express in making its decision about acquiring this route?

ACCT 505 Week 5 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:

The concentration of sales in the fourth quarter is 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:

Question :

(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?

Variable Expenses $158,000

Fixed Manufacturing Expenses $119,000

Fixed Selling and Administrative Expenses $94,000

All fixed expenses of the company are fully allocated to products in the company's accounting system. Further investigation has revealed that $55,000 of the fixed manufacturing expenses and $71,000 of the fixed selling and administrative expenses are avoidable if product S85U is discontinued.

Question 4. Question : (TCO D) Rosiek Corporation uses part A55 in one of its products. The company's accounting department reports the following costs of producing the 4,000 units of the part that are needed every year. 

Per Unit

Direct Materials $2.80

Direct Labor $6.30

Variable Overhead $8.50

Supervisor's Salary $2.60

Depreciation of Special Equipment $6.80

Allocated General Overhead $6.10

An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $32.30 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $4,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. In addition, the space used to produce part A55 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $26,000 per year for that product.

Required:

1. Prepare a report that shows the effect on the company's total net operating income of buying part A55 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.

1. Which alternative should the company choose?

Question 5. Question : (TCO D) A customer has asked Clougherty Corporation to supply 4,000 units of product M97, with some modifications, for $40.10 each. The normal selling price of this product is $48.00 each. The normal unit product cost of product M97 is computed as follows.

Direct Materials $18.50

Direct Labor $1.20

Variable manufacturing overhead $8.40

Fixed  manufacturing overhead $3.90

Unit product cost $32.00

Direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs. The customer would like some modifications made to product M97 that would increase the variable costs by $5.70 per unit and that would require a one-time investment of $31,000 in special molds that would have no salvage value. This special order would have no effect on the company's other sales. The company has ample spare capacity for producing the special order.

Required:

Determine the effect on the company's total net operating income of accepting the special order. Show your work!

ACCT 505 Week 7 Course Project 2 Capital Budgeting Decision

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.

o Annual cash flows over the expected life of the equipment

o Payback period

o Simple rate of return

o Net present value

o 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 answers.
