Barkov Industries makes an electronic component in two departments, Machining and Assembly.  The capacity per month is 60,000 units in the Machining Department and 50,000 units in the Assembly Department.  The only variable cost of the product is direct material of $200 per unit.  All direct material cost is incurred in the Machining Department.  All other costs of operating the two departments are fixed costs.  Barkov can sell as many units of this electronic component as it produces at a selling price of $500 per unit. Required:    a)    Barkov’s Machining managers believe that they could increase the capacity in their department by 10,000 units, if they were able to increase fixed costs by $100,000. Should the money be spent? Explain.b)    An outside contractor offers to do assembly for 10,000 units at a cost of $2,000,000. Should Barkov accept the offer from the subcontractor? Show calculations.c)    How do your answers in parts (a) and (b) relate to the theory of constraints?…

Cypress Inc. manufactures wooden canoes. Cypress normally sells the canoes for $2,700 per unit. A major distributor has offered to buy 1,000 units at a reduced price. At its budgeted annual production level of 18,000 units, Cypress' per-unit manufacturing costs are as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead $950 $200 $330 $450 Cypress would have to produce the special order on an overtime shift, which would increase the direct labor costs to $300 per unit. The special order would not impact Cypress' fixed costs. However, if Cypress accepts the special order, it will also incur $60,000 in additional, one-time costs in connection with the order. What is the minimum per-unit selling price that Cypress must charge to break even on the special order? Round to the nearest whole dollar and do not enter a dollar sign or a decimal point (e.g., enter 89, not $89.00).
