Holly Corp. has received a request for a special order of 9,000 units of product Z74 for $46.50 each. The normal selling price of this product is $51.60 each, but the units would need to be modified slightly for the customer. The normal unit product cost of product Z74 is computed as follows: $17.30 6.60 Direct materials.. Direct labor. Variable manufacturing overhead. Fixed manufacturing overhead Unit product cost... 3.80 6.70 $34.40 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 Z74 that would increase the variable costs by $6.20 per unit and that would require a one-time investment of $46,000 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. Determine the effect on total net operating income of accepting the special order. Negative for a loss, positive for a gain.

Patz Company produces two types of machine parts: Part A and Part B, with unit contribution margins of 300 and 600, respectively. Assume initially that Patz can sell all that is produced of either component. Part A requires two hours of assembly, and B requires five hours of assembly. The firm has 300 assembly hours per week. Required: 1. Express the objective of maximizing the total contribution margin subject to the assembly-hour constraint. 2. Identify the optimal amount that should be produced of each machine part and the total contribution margin associated with this mix. 3. What if market conditions are such that Patz can sell at most 75 units of Part A and 60 units of Part B? Express the objective function with its associated constraints for this case and identify the optimal mix and its associated total contribution margin.
Gent Designs requires three units of part A for every unit of Al that it produces. Currently, part A is made by Gent, with these per-unit costs in a month when 4.000 units were produced: Variable manufacturing overhead is applied at $1.00 per unit.
