Benchmark Industries manufactures large workbenches for industrial use. Wally Garcia, the vice president for marketing at Benchmark, has concluded from his market analysis that sales are dwindling for Benchmark's standard table because of aggressive pricing by competitors. Benchmark's table sells for P875 whereas the competition's comparable table is selling in the P800 range. Garcia has determined that dropping price to P800 is necessary to regain the firm's annual market share of 10,000 tables. Cost data based on sales of 10,000 tables are: Budgeted Amount 400,000 sq. ft. 85,000 hrs. 30,000 hrš: 320,000 hrs. Actual Amount Actual Cost 425,000 sq. ft. 100,000 hrs. 30,000 hrs. - 320,000 hrs.

Flash Manufacturing (FM) is considering a new product and is unsure about itsprice as well as the variable cost associated with it. FM’s marketing departmentbelieves that the firm can sell the product for $500 per unit but feels that if theinitial market response is weak, the price may have to be 20% lower in order to becompetitive with existing products. The firm’s best estimates of its costs are fixedcosts of $3.6 million and variable costs of $325 per unit. Concern exists withregard to the variable cost per unit due to currently volatile raw material and laborcosts. Although the firm expects this cost to be about $325 per unit, but it could beas much as 8% above that value. The firm expects to sell about 50,000 units peryear.(i) Calculate the firm’s breakeven point (BEP), assuming its initial estimates areaccurate. (ii) Perform a sensitivity analysis by calculating the breakeven point for allcombinations of the sales price per unit and variable cost per unit asmentioned in the above…
Peterson Corporation is considering implementing a JIT production system. The new system would reduce current average inventory levels of $2,000,000 by 75%, but it would require a much greater dependency on the company’s core suppliers for on-time deliveries and high-quality inputs. The company’s operations manager, John Leung, is opposed to the idea of a new JIT system. He is concerned that the new system (a) will be too costly to manage; (b) will result in too many stock outs; and (c) will lead to the layoff of his employees, several of whom are currently managing inventory. He believes that these layoffs will affect the morale of his entire production department. The management accountant, Susan Chow, is in favour of the new system, due to the likely result in cost savings. John wants Susan to revise her cost saving estimation because he is concerned that top management will give more weight to financial factors and not give due consideration to nonfinancial factors such as employee…
