2. The analysis of selling costs shows that small orders cost more than large orders. This fact could persuade management to market large orders more aggressively and/or offer discounts for them.

PROBLEM 5-51 (30 MINUTES)

1. Valdosta Vinyl Company (VVC) is currently using a plantwide overhead rate that is applied on the basis of direct-labor dollars. In general, a plantwide manufacturing-overhead rate is acceptable only if a similar relationship between overhead and direct labor exists in all departments or the company manufactures products that receive the same proportional services from each department

In most cases, departmental overhead rates are preferable to plantwide overhead rates because plantwide overhead rates do not provide the following:

A framework for reviewing overhead costs on a departmental basis, identifying departmental cost overruns, or taking corrective action to improve departmental cost control.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2009 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.Managerial Accounting, 8/e 5-9

Page 10: Problem Sol Hilton)

Sufficient information about product profitability, thus increasing the difficulties associated with management decision making.

2. Because the company uses a plantwide overhead rate applied on the basis of direct-labor dollars, the elimination of direct labor in the Molding Department through the introduction of robots may appear to reduce the overhead cost of the Molding Department to zero. However, this change will not reduce fixed manufacturing costs such as depreciation and plant supervision. In reality, the use of robots is likely to increase fixed costs because of increased depreciation. Under the current method of allocating overhead costs, these costs merely will be absorbed by the remaining departments.

PROBLEM 5-51 (CONTINUED)

3. a. In order to improve the allocation of overhead costs in the Cutting and Finishing departments, management should move toward an activity-based costing system. The firm should:

Establish activity-cost pools for each significant activity.

Select a cost driver for each activity that best reflects the relationship of the activity to the overhead costs incurred.

b. In order to accommodate the automation of the Molding Department in its overhead accounting system, the company should:

Establish a separate overhead pool and rate for the Molding Department.

Identify fixed and variable overhead costs and establish fixed and variable overhead rates.

Apply overhead costs to the Molding Department on the basis of robot or machine hours.

3. a. The ABC analysis indicates that several activities other than direct labor drive overhead. The cost computations show that the current system significantly undercosted Jamaican coffee, the low-volume product, and significantly overcosted the high-volume product, Colombian coffee.

b. The implication of the ABC analysis is that the low-volume products are using resources but are not covering their share of the cost of those resources. The Jamaican blend is currently priced at $9.49 [see requirement 1(b)], which is significantly below its activity-based cost of $11.06. The company should set long-run prices above cost. If there is excess capacity and many of the costs are fixed, it may be acceptable to price some products below full activity-based cost temporarily in order to build demand for the product. Otherwise, the high-volume, high-margin products are subsidizing the low-volume, low-margin products.
