To maintain the company's market share and protability, HEC Ltd will have to reduce the selling price of 'P' to $86.25. The company calls for a meeting and comes up with a proposal to change the design of product 'P'. The expected effect of new design is as follows: 0 Direct material cost is expected to decrease by $5 per unit. 0 Direct labour cost is expected to decrease by $2 per unit. 0 Machine time is expected to decrease by 15 minutes, previously it took 3 hours to produce 1 unit of 'P'. . Set-up time will be 28 hours for each set-up. . Time required for testing each unit of 'P' will be reduced by 1 hour. 0 Engineering cost and batch size will be unchanged. Assume cost per unit of cost drivers for the new design remains unchanged. until-s 630 ''EiIQIQG?

Direct material cost is expected to decrease by $5 per unit. . Direct labour cost is expected to decrease by $2 per unit. 0 Machine time is expected to decrease by 15 minutes, previously it took 3 hours to produce 1 unit of 'P'. - Set-up time will be 28 hours for each set-up. 0 Time required for testing each unit of 'P' will be reduced by 1 hour. 0 Engineering cost and batch size will be unchanged. Assume cost per unit of cost drivers for the new design remains unchanged. Required (a) Calculate the full cost per unit of 'P' and '0' before the product 'P"s redesign proposal was made. (b) Determine the current mark up on full cost per unit of 'P' based on your answer to requirement (a) above. Also, determine the target cost per unit for the redesigned product 'P' to maintain the same markup percentage on full cost per unit as it had earlier. (c) Evaluate if the new design for product 'P' achieves the cost reduction target. Show all calculations in detail. (7+3+5=15Marks) IND-6:330 'i'n'iithQGowUuAr-W; .HQQh g: 8E1
