Zycon has produced 10,000 units of partially finished Product A. These units cost $15,000 to produce, and they can be sold to another manufacturer for $20,000. Instead, Zycon can process the units further and produce finished Products X, Y, and Z. Processing further will cost an additional $22,000 and will yield total revenues of $35,000. Place an X in the appropriate column to identify whether the item is relevant or irrelevant to the sell or process further decision. Item Relevant Not Relevant a. $15,000 cost already incurred to produce b. $20,000 selling price c. $22,000 additional processing costs d. $35,000 revenues from processing

Refer to the information for Smooth Move Company on the previous page. Suppose a customerwants to have its company logo affixed to each paperweight using a label. Smooth Move wouldhave to purchase a special logo labeling machine that will cost $12,000. The machine will be ableto label the 15,000 units and then it will be scrapped (with no further value). No other fixedoverhead activities will be incurred. In addition, each special logo requires additional direct materials of $0.20.Required:CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Should Smooth Move accept the special order? By how muchwill profit increase or decrease if the order is accepted?
Diskmar has received a special order for 2,000 units of its product at a special price of $75. The product normally sells for $100 and has the following manufacturing costs:Direct material costs are $30; Direct labor costs are $20; and Variable Overhead costs are $15. Assume that Diskmar has sufficient capacity to fill the order without harming normal production and sales. a. If Diskmar accepts the order, what effect will the order have on the company's short-term profit? b. What minimum price should Diskmar charge to achieve a $25,000 incremental profit? c. Now assume Diskmar is currently operating at full capacity and cannot fill the order without harming normal production and sales. If Diskmar accepts the order, what effect will the order have on the company's short-term profit?

Jonfran Company manufactures three different models of paper shredders including the waste container, which serves as the base. While the shredder heads are different for all three models, the waste container is the same. The number of waste containers that Jonfran will need during the following years is estimated as follows: The equipment used to manufacture the waste container must be replaced because it is broken and cannot be repaired. The new equipment would have a purchase price of 945,000 with terms of 2/10, n/30; the companys policy is to take all purchase discounts. The freight on the equipment would be 11,000, and installation costs would total 22,900. The equipment would be purchased in December 20x4 and placed into service on January 1, 20x5. It would have a five-year economic life and would be treated as three-year property under MACRS. This equipment is expected to have a salvage value of 12,000 at the end of its economic life in 20x9. The new equipment would be more efficient than the old equipment, resulting in a 25 percent reduction in both direct materials and variable overhead. The savings in direct materials would result in an additional one-time decrease in working capital requirements of 2,500, resulting from a reduction in direct material inventories. This working capital reduction would be recognized at the time of equipment acquisition. The old equipment is fully depreciated and is not included in the fixed overhead. The old equipment from the plant can be sold for a salvage amount of 1,500. Rather than replace the equipment, one of Jonfrans production managers has suggested that the waste containers be purchased. One supplier has quoted a price of 27 per container. This price is 8 less than Jonfrans current manufacturing cost, which is as follows: Jonfran uses a plantwide fixed overhead rate in its operations. If the waste containers are purchased outside, the salary and benefits of one supervisor, included in fixed overhead at 45,000, would be eliminated. There would be no other changes in the other cash and noncash items included in fixed overhead except depreciation on the new equipment. Jonfran is subject to a 40 percent tax rate. Management assumes that all cash flows occur at the end of the year and uses a 12 percent after-tax discount rate. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule of cash flows for the make alternative. Calculate the NPV of the make alternative. 2. Prepare a schedule of cash flows for the buy alternative. Calculate the NPV of the buy alternative. 3. Which should Jonfran domake or buy the containers? What qualitative factors should be considered? (CMA adapted)

Gunston Processing produces two products, ALT-1 and ALT-2, from a batch using a single raw material, ALT-O. Both products require further processing before they be can be sold. A batch of ALT-1 can be sold for $153,000 after processing costs of $42,000. A batch of ALT-2 can be sold for $241,200 after further processing. The cost of ALT-O is $200,000 for a batch. Using the estimated net realizable value method, a joint cost of $120,000 was allocated to ALT-2 for a batch. Required: Compute the separable processing cost for a batch of ALT-2. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Processing cost
