It provides cleaning services to residential households and commercial establishments. Both households and businesses sign contracts with MCS. As the contractor, MCS dispatches its crew to the locations. The crew performs the cleaning asper the contracts and reports back to the company main desk. The main desk then prepares the invoiceand sends them to the clients. Clients have one day to pay the invoice. Sales volume can vary from one quarter to the next. In terms of expenses, the main expense for MCS relates to labour. They pay crew members competitivewages and benefits. The wage rate is calculated on an hourly basis and is xed for the entire yea r. The next expense item is cleaning supplies. MCS accounts for cleaning supplies relative to the hours worked. For example, they estimate that cleaning supplies are consumed at a rate of 0.2 litres per labour hour. This is a good measure because the longer it takes for a site to be cleaned, the more the consumption of cleaning supplies. Cleaning supplies are procured from a prominent vendor and the cost is xed for the entire year. Sometimes clients are not happy about the cleaning services and register a complaint. In that case, the crew is dispatched again for a second cleaning. The hours accruing from such scenarios are not billed to the client as this constitutes a 'service recovenf. However, the crew is paid for such hours. MCS maintains arecord of these hours and classifies them as 'unproductive hours', or 'unbilled hours. This is calculated as a percentage of revenue earning hours (e.g., 10% of revenue generating hours). For the purpose of this assignment, assume that there is no consumption of cleaning materials when this second cleaning is being done. Budget for the year 2021: The budget for the year 2021 was prepared in December 2020 and had the following components: Revenue: The revenue is calculated as number of hours that the crew works on a site, multiplied by the contracted rate with the client. The hours worked in the residential and commercial segments are shown separately, and there is a total for the combined hours worked. The revenue for each segment is arrived at by multiplying the hours for the segment by the rate. The budget is prepared for four quarters, one to four. For 2021, the budgeted sales hours were: Quarter 1 2 3 4 Budgeted commercial sales in 4,000 4,200 4,000 3,500 hours Budgeted residential sales in hours 2,100 2,100 1,800 2,100 For 2021, the budgeted selling price per hours were: Quarter 1 2 3 4 Selling price per hour [commercial] $39 $39 $39 $39 Selling price per hour (residential) $42 S42 S42 S42 Direct Labour expense: MCS will pay its employees an hourly rate of $26 for the entire year. Cleaning supply usage: The budgeted usage is 0.28 litre/ labour hour for the commercial segment and 0.17 litre! labour hour for the residential segment. This is constant for the entire year. Cleaning supply expense: Budgeted expense is $5.70 per litre for the entire year. 4|Page Fixed overhead: To support the cleaning operations, there are four items of expenditure. These are designated as overheads and their budgeted expenses are as follows: General Administration related: Budgeted expense is $6,000 per quarter and is the same for all four quarters. Depreciation: This relates to the depreciation of vehicles used to transport employees to client locations. Budgeted expense is $8,700 per quarter and is the same for all four quarters. Employee benefit related: Budgeted expenditure on gas is $6,000 and is the same for all four quarters.
