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

Indirect labor

 

 

43,500

 

 

Rent

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.

Residual Income

 

Washington Company has two divisions: the Adams Division and the Jefferson Division. The following

 

information pertains to last year's results:

 

 

Adams Division

 

 

Jefferson Division

 

 

Net (after-tax) income

 

 

$611,050

 

 

$374,850

 

 

Total capital employed

3,282,500

 

 

In addition, Washington Company's top management has set a minimum acceptable rate of return

 

equal to 9%.

 

Required:

 

Enter negative values as negative numbers.

 

1. Calculate the residual income for the Adams Division.

2. Calculate the residual income for the Jefferson Division.

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

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.

 

(Note: Round all numbers to two decimal places.)

The ROI increased because expenses increased and assets turned over at a lower rate (sales
