Jоhnsоn Mаnufаcturing Cоmpаny budgeted sales of 100,000 electronic clocks at $30 per unit for 2024. Variable manufacturing costs were budgeted at $14 per unit, and fixed manufacturing costs at $8 per unit. A special order offering to buy 20,000 clocks for $20 each was received by Johnson in March 2024. Johnson has sufficient plant capacity to manufacture the additional quantity; however, the production would have to be done on an overtime basis at an estimated additional cost of $2 per clock. Acceptance of the special order would not affect Johnson’s normal sales and no selling expenses would be incurred. What would be the effect on operating profit if the special order were accepted?
(Three-pаrt prоblem) Grаy Dentistry Services is pаrt оf an HMO that оperates in Chicago. Currently, Gray has its own dental laboratory to produce porcelain and gold crowns. The per-unit costs to produce the crowns are as follows: Porcelain Gold Raw materials $ 60 $ 90 Direct labor 20 20 Variable overhead 5 5 Allocated fixed overhead 22 22 Total $ 107 $ 137 Components of allocated fixed overhead include: Salary for lab supervisor $ 30,000 Equipment book value $ 5,000 Annual rent on lab facility $ 20,000 A local dental laboratory, CrownMaker, has offered to supply Gray all the crowns it needs. CrownMaker’s price is $100 for porcelain crowns and $132 for gold crowns. However, the offer is conditional on supplying both types of crowns ¾ CrownMaker will not supply just one type for the price indicated. If the offer is accepted, the equipment used by Gray's laboratory would be scrapped but not sold (it has only one year of useful life remaining and it has no market value), the rental agreement on the lab facility would be cancelled at no cost, the lab facility would be closed, and all lab employees would be laid off. Gray uses 1,500 porcelain crowns and 1,000 gold crowns per year for its customers, and Gray charges its customers $250 for a porcelain crown and $350 for a gold crown. Assume that Gray’s lab has the capacity to make 3,000 porcelain crowns and 2,000 gold crowns per year. Dr. Ima Soretooth, who owns a private dental practice in the area, has approached Gray and asked it to make 500 of each type of crown for her practice. Dr. Soretooth will pay Gray $105 for each porcelain crown and $125 for each gold crown she purchases, but she will only enter into the agreement if Gray agrees to provide her with both types of crowns. Based purely on financial considerations of Soretooth’s offer alone (that is, without considering the CrownMaker offer), should Gray accept Dr. Soretooth’s offer?
