Johnston Adhesives Company makes three widely used industrial adhesives: A101, A204, and B216. Sales and production information for each of the three adhesives are shown in the following table. Most of Johnston’s customers ask for a special blend of the three products, which improves heat-resistance. The additional separable processing requires additional time and materials, and the price is increased accordingly, as shown in the table. Assume that Johnston produces only for specific customer orders, so there is no beginning or ending inventory. Assume also that all of Johnston’s customers requested the heat-resistant version of the products so that all production required additional separable processing. Total joint cost for the three products is $3,411,000.     A101 A204 B216 Gallons sold 240,000   240,000 178,000 Final sales price per gallon $ 13 $ 6 $ 11 Price at split-off 10 3 7 Separable processing cost $ 563,000 $ 81,000 $ 623,000 Calculate the unit product cost and total gross margin for each of the three product lines using

Come-Clean Corporation produces a variety of cleaning compounds and solutions for both industrial and household use. While most of its products are processed independently, a few are related, such as the company’s Grit 337 and its Sparkle silver polish.   Grit 337 is a coarse cleaning powder with many industrial uses. It costs $1.60 a pound to make, and it has a selling price of $6.80 a pound. A small portion of the annual production of Grit 337 is retained in the factory for further processing. It is combined with several other ingredients to form a paste that is marketed as Sparkle silver polish. The silver polish sells for $5.00 per jar.   This further processing requires one-fourth pound of Grit 337 per jar of silver polish. The additional direct variable costs involved in the processing of a jar of silver polish are:   Other ingredients $ 0.65 Direct labor 1.36 Total direct cost $ 2.01   Overhead costs associated with processing the silver polish are:  Variable…

Youngstown Glass Company manufactures three types of safety plate glass: large, medium, and small. All three products have high demand. Thus, Youngstown Glass is able to sell all the safety glass that it can make. The production process includes an autoclave operation, which is a pressurized heat treatment. The autoclave is a production bottleneck. Total fixed costs are $160,000 for the company as a whole. In addition, the following information is available about the three products:   Large   Medium   Small   Unit selling price $353    $253    $133    Unit variable cost (278)   (207)   (117)   Unit contribution margin $ 75    $ 46    $ 16    Autoclave hours per unit 6    4    2    Total process hours per unit 12    8    6    Budgeted units of production 2,600    2,600    2,600    a.  Determine the contribution margin by glass type and the total company operating income for the budgeted units of production.   Large      Medium      Small      Total      Units…

The Chopin Company has decided to introduce a new product. The new product can be manufactured by either a computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM) or a labor-intensive production (LIP) system. The manufacturing method will not affect the quality of the product. The estimated manufacturing costs for each of the two methods are as follows. CAM System: Direct Material = $5.0 Direct Labor (DLH) = 0.5 DLH X $12 = $6 Variable Overhead = 0.5DLHx$6 = $3 Fixed Iverhead* = $ 2,440,000 LIP System: Direct Material = $5.6 Direct Labor (DLH) = 0.8 DLH X $9 = $7.2 Variable Overhead = 0.8 DLH X $6 = $4.8 Fixed Overhead* = $1,320,000 *These costs are directly traceable to the new product line. They would not be incurred if the new product were not produced. The company’s marketing research department has recommended an introductory unit sales price of $30. Selling expenses are estimated to be $500,000 annually plus $2 for each unit sold. (Ignore income taxes.) Required: Calculate the estimated…
