Effect of proposals on divisional performance
A condensed income statement for the Jet Ski Division of Amazing Rides Inc. for the year ended December 31. 20Y2, is as follows
Assume that the Jet Ski Division received no charges from service departments. The president of Amazing Rides has indicated that the division's
Proposal 1: Transfer equipment with a book value of J3.000.000 to other divisions at no gain or loss and lease similar equipment. The annual lease payments would exceed the amount of depreciation expense on the old equipment by $264,000. This increase in expense would be included as part of the cost of goods sold. Sales would remain unchanged.
Proposal 2: Purchase new and more efficient machining equipment and thereby reduce the cost of goods sold by $480,000. Sales would remain unchanged, and the old equipment, which has no remaining book value, would be scrapped at no gain or loss. The new equipment would increase invested assets by an additional $1,000,000 for the year.
Proposal 5? Reduce invested assets by discontinuing the tandem jet ski line. This action would eliminate sales of $2,280,000, cost of goods sold of $1,400,000, and operating expenses of $463,600. Assets of $4,200,000 would be transferred to other divisions at no gain or loss.

- Effect of proposals on divisional performance A condensed income statement for the Commercial Division of Maxell Manufacturing Inc. for the year ended December 31, 20Y9, is as follows: Assume that the Commercial Division received no allocations from support departments. The president of Maxell Manufacturing has indicated that the divisions return on a 2,500,000 investment must be increased to at least 21% by the end of the next year if operations are to continue. The division manager is considering the following three proposals: Proposal 1: Transfer equipment with a book value of 312,500 to other divisions at no gain or loss and lease similar equipment. The annual lease payments would exceed the amount of depreciation expense on the old equipment by 105,000. This increase in expense would be included as part of the cost of goods sold. Sales would remain unchanged. Proposal 2: Purchase new and more efficient machining equipment and thereby reduce the cost of goods sold by 560,000 after considering the effects of depreciation expense on the new equipment. Sales would remain unchanged, and the old equipment, which has no remaining book value, would be scrapped at no gain or loss. The new equipment would increase invested assets by an additional 1,875,000 for the year. Proposal 3: Reduce invested assets by discontinuing a product line. This action would eliminate sales of 595,000, reduce cost of goods sold by 406,700, and reduce operating expenses by 175,000. Assets of 1,338,000 would be transferred to other divisions at no gain or loss. Instructions 1. Using the DuPont formula for return on investment, determine the profit margin, investment turnover, and return on investment for the Commercial Division for the past year. 2. Prepare condensed estimated income statements and compute the invested assets for each proposal. 3. Using the DuPont formula for return on investment, determine the profit margin, investment turnover, and return on investment for each proposal. Round the investment turnover and return on investment to one decimal place. 4. Which of the three proposals would meet the required 21% return on investment? 5. If the Commercial Division were in an industry where the profit margin could not be increased, how much would the investment turnover have to increase to meet the presidents required 21% return on investment?arrow_forwardDivisional performance analysis and evaluation The vice president of operations of Free Ride Bike Company is evaluating the performance of two divisions organized as investment centers.
