Identifying and managing unused capacity (continuation of 12-22). Refer to Exercise 12-22.

1. Calculate the amount and cost of (a) unused manufacturing capacity and (b) unused selling and customer-service capacity at the beginning of 2013 based on actual production and actual number of customers served in 2013.

2. Suppose Stanmore can add or reduce its manufacturing capacity in increments of 30 units. What is the maximum amount of costs that Stanmore could save in 2013 by downsizing manufacturing capacity?

3. Stanmore, in fact, does not eliminate any of its unused manufacturing capacity. Why might Stanmore not downsize?
