Question

a. Present an analysis supporting a decision to accept or reject the special order. (Round computations to the nearest cent.)

Total cost data follow for Glendale Manufacturing Company, which has a normal capacity per period of 8,000 units of product that sell for $60 each. For the foreseeable future, regular sales volume should continue to equal normal capacity.


Direct material


$102,400
Direct labor


64,000
Variable manufacturing overhead


48,400
Fixed manufacturing overhead (Note 1)


38,400
Selling expense (Note 2)


35,200
Administrative expense (fixed)


15,000




$303,400

Notes:
1. Beyond normal capacity, fixed overhead costs increase $1,800 for each 500 units or fraction thereof until a maximum capacity of 10,000 units is reached.
2. Selling expenses consist of a 6% sales commission and shipping costs of 80 cents per unit. Glendale pays only three-fourths of the regular sales commission on sales totaling 501 to 1,000 units and only two-thirds the regular commission on sales totaling 1,000 units or more.

Glendale's sales manager has received a special order for 1,200 units from a large discount chain at a price of $36 each, F.O.B. factory. The controller's office has furnished the following additional cost data related to the special order:

1. Changes in the product's design will reduce direct material costs $1.50 per unit.
2. Special processing will add 20% to the per-unit direct labor costs.
3. Variable overhead will continue at the same proportion of direct labor costs.
4. Other costs should not be affected.

a. Present an analysis supporting a decision to accept or reject the special order. (Round computations to the nearest cent.)
