The company is finding it necessary to make many changes in operating procedures. Progress has been slow, particularly in trying to develop new performance measures for the factory. In an effort to evaluate performance and determine where improvements can be made, management has gathered the following data relating to activities over the last four months: Print References Mc Graw Hill Month 2 3 Quality control measures: Number of defects Number of warranty claims Number of customer complaints Material control measures: Purchase order lead time Machine performance measures: 200 178 139 61 54 45 42 117 111 94 73 8 days 7 days 5 days Scrap as a percent of total cost 1% 1% 2% 4 days 3% Machine downtime as a percentage of availability 4% 5% 5% 8% Use as a percentage of availability 94% 91% 88% 84% Setup time (hours) 8 10 11 12 Delivery performance measures: Throughput time ? ? ? ?

Three services are provided for seniors-home nursing, Meals On Wheels, and housekeeping. Data on revenue and expenses for the past year follow: Revenues Variable expenses Contribution margin Fixed expenses: Depreciation Liability insurance Program administrators' salaries General administrative overhead* Total fixed expenses. Net operating income (loss) Total $ 933,000 469,000 464,000 Home Nursing $270,000 114,000 156,000 Meals On Wheels $ 409,000 199,000 210,000 House- keeping $ 254,000 156,000 98,000 69,900 8,600 40,600 20,700 43,000 20,600 7,200 15,200 114,900 40,100 38,500 36,300 186,600 54,000 81,800 50,800 414,400 123, 300 168,100 123,000 $ 49,600 $ 32,700 $ 41,900 $ (25,000) Allocated on the basis of program revenues. The head administrator of Jackson County Senior Services, Judith Miyama, considers last year's net operating income of $49,600 to be unsatisfactory; therefore, she is considering the possibility of discontinuing the housekeeping program. The depreciation in housekeeping is for a small van that is used to carry the housekeepers and their equipment from job to job. If the program were discontinued, the van would be donated to a charitable organization. None of the general administrative overhead would be avoided if the housekeeping program were dropped, but the liability insurance and the salary of the program administrator would be avoided. Required: -a. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of discontinuing the Housekeeping program? -b. Based on the financial advantage (disadvantage) of discontinuing the Housekeeping program calculated in requirement Req 1A, should the Housekeeping program be discontinued? 2-a. Prepare a properly formatted segmented income statement. 2-b. Would a segmented income statement format be more useful to management assessing the long-run financial viability of the various services?

Operating at capacity, the company can produce and sell 30,000 Rets per year. Costs associated with this level of production and sales are given below: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Variable selling expense Fixed selling expense Total cost Unit $ 25 6 Total $ 750,000 180,000 3 7 90,000 210,000 2 6 60,000 180,000 $ 49 $ 1,470,000 The Rets normally sell for $54 each. Fixed manufacturing overhead is $210,000 per year within the range of 23,000 through 30,000 Rets per year. Required: 1. Assume that due to a recession, Polaski Company expects to sell only 23,000 Rets through regular channels next year. A large retail chain has offered to purchase 7,000 Rets if Polaski is willing to accept a 16% discount off the regular price. There would be no sales commissions on this order; thus, variable selling expenses would be slashed by 75%. However, Polaski Company would have to purchase a special machine to engrave the retail chain's name on the 7,000 units. This machine would cost $14,000. Polaski Company has no assurance that the retail chain will purchase additional units in the future. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the special order? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) 2. Refer to the original data. Assume again that Polaski Company expects to sell only 23,000 Rets through regular channels next year. The U.S. Army would like to make a one-time-only purchase of 7,000 Rets. The Army would reimburse Polaski for all of the variable and fixed production costs assigned to the units by the company's absorption costing system, plus it would pay an additional fee of $1.20 per unit. Because the army would pick up the Rets with its own trucks, there would be no variable selling expenses associated with this order. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the U.S. Army's special order? 3. Assume the same situation as described in (2) above, except that the company expects to sell 30,000 Rets through regular channels next year. Thus, accepting the U.S. Army's order would require giving up regular sales of 7,000 Rets.
