Performance Report Based on Actual Production
Ladan Suriman, controller for Healthy Pet Company, has been instructed to develop a flexible budget
for overhead costs. The company produces two types of dog food. BasicDiet is a standard mixture for
healthy dogs. SpecialDiet is a reduced protein formulation for older dogs with health problems. The
two dog foods use common raw materials in different proportions. The company expects to produce
80,000 bags of each product during the coming year. BasicDiet requires 0.20 direct labor hours per
bag, and SpecialDiet requires 0.30 direct labor hours per bag. Ladan has developed the following fixed
and variable costs for each of the four overhead items:
Overhead Item
Maintenance
Variable Rate per
Fixed Cost
Direct Labor Hour
$57,250
$0.50
Power
0.40
Indirect labor
43,500
Rent
2.10
39,000
Assume that Healthy Pet actually produced 100,000 bags of BasicDiet and 90,000 bags of SpecialDiet.
The actual overhead costs incurred were as follows:
Maintenance
Power
$81,300
18,700
Indirect labor
$143,600
Rent
39,000
1. Calculate the number of direct labor hours budgeted for actual production of the two products.
direct labor hours
2. Prepare a performance report for the period based on actual production. In the variance type
column, select "F" for favorable and "U" for unfavorable. If the variance is zero, enter ("0") in the
variance amount column and "N" for neither in the variance type column.

Return on Investment, Margin, Turnover
Ready Electronics is facing stiff competition from imported goods. Its operating income margin has
been declining steadily for the past several years. The company has been forced to lower prices so
that it can maintain its market share. The operating results for the past 3 years are as follows:
Year 1
Sales
Year 2
Year 3
$13,500,000
Operating income
Average assets
$ 9,500,000
$ 9,000,000
1,200,000
1,145,000
945,000
15,000,000
15,000,000
16,250,000
For the coming year, Ready's president plans to install a JIT purchasing and manufacturing system. She
estimates that inventories will be reduced by 70% during the first year of operations, producing a 20%
reduction in the average operating assets of the company, which would remain unchanged without the
JIT system. She also estimates that sales and operating income will be restored to Year 1 levels
because of simultaneous reductions in operating expenses and selling prices. Lower selling prices will
allow Ready to expand its market share.
