Any company that purchases the new model will need to purchase user manuals to access and operate the system. Also required are specialized computer forms that are sold only by Tamarisk Professionals. User manuals will be sold to clients in cases of 20, at a cost of $310 per case. One manual must be used each time the model is run because each manual includes a non-reusable computer password for operating the system. The specialized computer forms are sold in packages of 240 at a cost of $48 per package. One application of the model requires the use of 40 forms. This amount includes two forms that are generally wasted in each application due to printer alignment errors. The overall cost of the strategic planning model to user clients is $11,500. Most clients will use the model four times each year. Tamarisk Professionals must provide its clients with estimates of ongoing costs that are incurred in operating the new strategic planning model. They would like to provide this information in the form of standard costs. (d) Determine the standard materials cost associated with the user manuals and computer forms for each application of the strategic planning model. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, eg, 12.25.)

The sale price per system is $500.00 and the related costs are presented later. Required: Indicate whether this business should accept or reject a special order of 500 microchips at a price of $300. The client is the Humane Society and it is an order that will not be repeated in the future as this comes from non-recurring funds. When we learned that the Humane Society was seeking bids, we took it upon ourselves to send our sales specialists who brought a proposal prepared following the usual sales and marketing practices. Despite being a special order, if accepted, it will follow the typical pattern of routine orders in terms of transaction costs. This order has no effect on the routine business of PUPPY SAFETY.
