PR 12-44(Algo) Segmented Income Statement; Responsibility Accounting (LO 12-3,12-5)
Show-Off, Incorporated, sells merchandise through three retail outlets-in Las Vegas, Reno, and Sacramento-and operates a general corporate headquarters in Reno. A review of the company's income statement indicates a record year in terms of sales and profits. Management, though, desires additional insights about the individual stores and has asked that Judson Wyatt, a newly hired intern, prepare a segmented income statement. The following information has been extracted from Show-Off's accounting records:
The sales volume, sales price, and purchase price data follow:
\table[[,Las Veqas,Reno,Sacramento],[Sales volume,38,800 units,42,800,units,46,720,units],[Unit selling price,$36.00,$34.50,,$32.25,],[Unit purchase price,17.25,17.25,,22.50,]]
The following expenses were incurred for sales commissions, local advertising, property taxes, management salaries, and other noncontrollable (but traceable) costs:
\table[[,Las Vegas,Reno,Sacramento],[Sales commissions,6%,6%,6%],[Local advertising,$18,300,$42,000,$126,000],[Local property taxes,7,650,3,900,14,400],[Sales manager salary,0,0,75,000],[Store manager salaries,55,500,76,500,93,000],[Other noncontrollable costs,10,500,7,800,44,700]]
Local advertising decisions are made at the store manager level. The sales manager's salary in Sacramento is determined by the Sacramento store manager; in contrast, store manager salaries are set by Show-Off's vice president.
Nontraceable fixed corporate expenses total $378,450.
The company uses a responsibility accounting system.
