SOLUTIONS TO BRIEF EXERCISES

BRIEF EXERCISE 7-1

The correct order is:

1. Identify the problem and assign responsibility.


2. Determine and evaluate possible courses of action.
3. Make a decision.
4. Review results of the decision.

The bookcases should be processed further because the incremental


revenues exceed incremental costs by $1.00 per unit.

BRIEF EXERCISE 7-6

The allocated joint costs are irrelevant to the sell or process further
decisions. If AB1 is processed further, the company will earn incremental
revenue of $50,000 ($150,000 $100,000) and only incur incremental costs of
$45,000. Therefore, the company should process AB1 further and sell AB2.
If XY1 is processed further, the company will earn incremental revenue of
$35,000 ($130,000 $95,000) but will incur incremental costs of $50,000.
Therefore, the company should sell XY1 rather than process it further.

The Big Bart product line should be continued because $20,000 of contribu-
tion margin will not be realized if the line is eliminated. This amount is
greater than the $10,000 savings of fixed costs.

(c) It is assumed that sales of the golf discs in other markets would not be
affected by this special order. If other sales were affected, Gruden would
have to consider the lost sales in making the decision. Second, if Gruden
is operating at full capacity, it is likely that the special order would be
rejected.

Gibbs should be making the sails, because they could save $35 per
unit or $42,000. The president was including the fixed overhead cost
in the calculation. Variable overhead = Total overhead ($100) Fixed
overhead ($78,000 1,200) = $35. This amount has been allocated, so
Gibbs will incur the cost whether or not they make the sails. This is an
example of an irrelevant cost, because it does not differ between the
two alternatives.

(b) In order for Innova to make an accurate decision, they would have to
know the opportunity cost of manufacturing the other product. As
determined in (a), purchasing the product from outside would cost
$11,500 more (1,000 X $11.50). Innova would have to increase their
contribution margin by more than $11,500 through the manufacture of
the other product, before it would be economical for them to purchase
the IMC2 from the outside vendor.

(c) Qualitative factors to consider would be (1) quality of the component

Net income is $10,000 ($70,000 $60,000) higher in (d) than in (b) because
product 12 is not processed further, thereby increasing overall profit $10,000.

EXERCISE 7-11

To determine whether each of the three joint products should be sold as is,
or processed further, we must determine the incremental profit or loss that
would be earned by each. The allocated joint costs are irrelevant to the
decision since these costs will not change whether or not the products are
sold as is or processed further.
Larco Marco Narco
Incremental revenue $100,000* $100,000 ** $395,000 ***
Incremental cost (110,000) (85,000 ) (250,000 )
Incremental profit (loss) $ (10,000) $ 15,000 $145,000
From this analysis we see that Marco and Narco should be processed further
because the incremental revenue exceeds the incremental costs, but Larco
should be sold as is.

EXERCISE 7-12

(a) The costs that are relevant in this decision are the incremental revenues
and the incremental costs associated with processing the material
past the split-off point. Any costs incurred up to the split-off point are
sunk costs, and therefore, irrelevant to this decision.
(b) Revenue after further processing:
Product D$60,000 (4,000 units X $15.00 per unit)
Product E$97,200 (6,000 units X $16.20 per unit)
Product F$45,200 (2,000 units X $22.60 per unit)

Yes. Benson Hospital should replace the old scanner because it will
result in a savings of $20,000 over the next four years.

(c) As shown in (a) above, replacing the old scanner will result in
reporting a loss of $35,000. Reluctance to report losses of this nature
is the usual reason for not recognizing that a poor decision was made
in the past. The remaining book value of the old scanner ($75,000) is
a sunk cost. It will be deducted in the future, if the scanner is retained,
or written off now if it is replaced. However, if it is replaced now, that
cost will be partially offset by the salvage value that Dyno is willing to
pay ($40,000).

Judy is incorrect. The incremental analysis shows that net income will be
$13,000 less if the Huron Division is eliminated. This amount equals the
contribution margin that would be lost through discontinuing the division.

(Note: None of the fixed costs can be avoided.)

(c) As shown in the analysis above, Cawley should not eliminate the
Stunner product line. Elimination of the line would cause net income
to drop from $60,000 to $40,000. The reason for this decrease in net
income is that elimination of the product line would result in the loss
of $55,000 of contribution margin while saving only $35,000 of fixed
expenses.
