- 1) Supplier and Retail Firm A retail-level firm has a contract to sell a single unit of a good to a consumer for 10$. Not delivering the good leads to no payment from the consumer along with a penalty of 5$ to be paid to the consumer by the firm as per the contract between the firm and the consumer. The retail-level firm must also pay an operating cost of 3$ in order to stay in business and in order to be able to deliver the good. This cost must be paid even if the firm decides not to sell the good. Failing to deliver the good and having to pay the penalty and the other costs would lead to the retail firm going out of business.

- If a product in question has an insignificant cost, it might not be worth the trouble to trace the cost of that item to a particular cost center, and that item would be considered indirect. If the cost of tracing the cost of that item is high in relation to the benefits received from tracing it, the item would likely be considered as indirect material. If the design of the manufacturing process easily permits all the items to be traced to a single type of cost center, then it would be easy for a company to consider that material to be direct. Overall, the direct/indirect classification is decided on a cost/benefit basis. In your response to this discussion, state why is it possible that a raw material such as glue might be considered as an indirect material for one furniture manufacturer and as a direct material for another furniture manufacture?
