Moonbeam Company manufactures toasters. For the first 8 months of 2020, the company reported the following operating results while operating at 75% of plant capacity:
|
Sales (358,400 units) |
|
$4,377,000 |

|
|

|
Cost of goods sold was 70% variable and 30% fixed; operating expenses were 80% variable and 20% fixed. In September, Moonbeam receives a special order for 24,500 toasters at $8.38 each from Luna Company of Ciudad Juarez. Acceptance of the order would result in an additional $2,900 of shipping costs but no increase in fixed costs. (a) Prepare an incremental analysis for the special order. (Round computations for per unit cost to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and all other computations and final answers to the nearest whole dollar, e.g. 5,725. Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)

Exercise 7-11
Kirk Minerals processes materials extracted from mines. The most common raw material that it processes results in three joint products: Spock, Uhura, and Sulu. Each of these products can be sold as is, or each can be processed further and sold for a higher price. The company incurs joint costs of $182,100 to process one batch of the raw material that produces the three joint products. The following cost and sales information is available for one batch of each product.

Exercise 8-2 (Video)
Eckert Company is involved in producing and selling high-end golf equipment. The company has recently been involved in developing various types of laser guns to measure yardages on the golf course. One small laser gun, called LittleLaser, appears to have a very large potential market. Because of competition, Eckert does not believe that it can charge more than $88 for LittleLaser. At this price, Eckert believes it can sell 117,000 of these laser guns. Eckert will require an investment of $11,700,000 to manufacture, and the company wants an ROI of 15%. Determine the target cost for one LittleLaser.

Problem 8-5A (Video)
Gutierrez Company makes various electronic products. The company is divided into a number of autonomous divisions that can either sell to internal units or sell externally. All divisions are located in buildings on the same piece of property. The Board Division has offered the Chip Division $20 per unit to supply it with chips for 39,000 boards. It has been purchasing these chips for $21 per unit from outside suppliers. The Chip Division receives $22.20 per unit for sales made to outside customers on this type of chip. The variable cost of chips sold externally by the Chip Division is $17.20. It estimates that it will save $4.20 per chip of selling expenses on units sold internally to the Board Division. The Chip Division has no excess capacity. (a) Calculate the minimum transfer price that the Chip Division should accept. (Round answers to 2 decimal places. e.g. 10.25.)
