01) A sell or process further decision involves deciding whether to sell a product as is or continue to refine it. Because in sell or process we make a decision whether to sell the product as it is or process further if it will be profitable to sell that product after processing.
02) If the company produces 8000 ordinary backpacks then profit/(loss) :
Selling price | 50 | |
Less: | ||
Direct material | 15 | |
Direct labor | 10 | |
Variable manufacturing overhead | 5 | 30 |
Contribution per unit | 20 | |
No. of back packs | 8000 | |
Total contribution (8000*20) | 160000 | |
Less: Additional development cost | 0 | |
Less: Fixed manufacturing overhead (8000*5) | 40000 | |
Profit/(loss) | 120000 |
If the company produces 8000 hiking backpacks then profit/(loss) :
Selling price | 75 | |
Less: | ||
Direct material | 20 | |
Direct labor | 15 | |
Variable manufacturing overhead | 10 | 45 |
Contribution per unit | 30 | |
No. of back packs | 8000 | |
Total contribution (8000*30) | 240000 | |
Less: Additional development cost | 8000 | |
Less: Fixed manufacturing overhead (5*8000) | 40000 | |
Profit/ (loss) | 192000 |
Incremental profit/(loss) from processing backpacks further = 192000-120000 = 72000
03) The cost incurred in producing the product so far should be ignored when deciding whether to sell a product as is or process it further. Because cost already incurred is treated as sunk cost and is irrelevant in decision making.
04) A product should be processed further if the incremental revenue from processing it further exceeds the incremental cost is the decision rule of a sell-or-process-further decision. Because if the incremental revenue exceeds incremental cost there will be overall increase in revenue and it will be profitable to process further.
