Breccon Co Breccon Co introduced a new product, D'v', to its range last year.The machine used to mould each item is a bottleneck in the productionprocess meaning that a maximum of 5,000 units per annum can bemanufactured. The D'v' product has been a huge success in the marketplace and as aresult, all items manufactured are sold. The marketing department hasprepared the following demand forecast for future years as a result offeedback from customers. Tur 1 2 3 4 Demand [LI-its} T,000 0,000 11,000 4,000 The directors are now considering investing in a second machinethat will allow the company to satisfy the excess demand.

However, if production is increased, it is expected thatthe selling price will fall to $45 per unit for all units sold. Again,this will last for the remainder of the life of the product. No terminal value or machinery scrap value is expected at the endof four years, when production of DV is planned to end. For investmentappraisal purposes, Breccon uses a nominal (money) discount rate of 1 0%per year and a target return on capital employed of 20% per year. Ignoretaxation. (5) A machine bought for $30,000four years ago. The machine is currently being used elsewhere in thebusiness where it generates a present value of $20,000; it has a scrapvalue of $12,000. A similar replacement machine could be purchased for$15,000 and would have a zero residual value after the conversionproject. (6) The project will take place in afactory which is currently empty. The factory is being depreciated anddepreciation for the duration of the project will be $10,000. (7) The conversion project will be allocated a share of central overheads calculated at a rate of $4 per skilled labour hour worked. Requirement Perform calculations to show whether the company should convert the product. (25 marks) I 4. Made to order product A company has produced a made-to-order product for a customer at acost of $50,000, which was to have been sold to the customer for$120,000. The customer has now gone bankrupt. The company has the option of converting the product into a different version which it estimates could be sold for $85,000. The conversion would require the foilowing: (1) 1,000kgs of material A. Thecompany currently has 2,500kgs in stock which was bought last month for$2.00 per kg, although the current purchase price has now increased to$2.15. Material A is regulariy used in the company's other products. (2) 2,000kgs of Material B. Thecompany currently has 600kgs in stock which was bought last month for$3.00 per kg although the current purchase price is now $3.50. There isno other use for the material and it has a scrap value of $1.00 per kg. (3) 4,000 hours of skilled labour.Skilled labour is paid a fixed weekly wage and there is currently sparecapacity sufficient to provide half the required hours. The remaininghours would be made up through overtime which would be paid at $12 perhour. (4) 3,000 hours of semi skilledlabour. Semi skilled labour is paid at $6 per hour but is currentlyfully occupied on other projects. Due to union restrictions, staff willnct work overtime and there is no other labour available at such shortnotice. Therefore the only way to get the required hours is to movestaff from other production. Each hour used on this other productioncurrently generates contribution of $4 per hour (being revenue of $25,material cost of $15 and labour of $6). I 3.
