4. Fragrance Pty Ltd has two divisions: the Cologne Division and the Bottle Division. The company is decentralised and each division is evaluated as a profit centre. The Bottle Division produces bottles that can be used by the Cologne Division. The Bottle Division’s variable manufacturing cost per unit is $2.00 and shipping costs are $0.10 per unit. The Bottle Division’s external sales price is $3.00 per unit. No shipping costs are incurred on sales to the Cologne Division. The Cologne Division can purchase similar bottles in the external market for $2.50.
The Bottle Division has sufficient capacity to meet all external market demands in addition to meeting the demands of the Cologne Division. Using the general rule, the minimum transfer price from the Bottle Division to the Cologne Division would be:
A. $2.00
B. $2.10
C. $2.50
D. $2.90
5. Fragrance Pty Ltd has two divisions: the Cologne Division and the Bottle Division. The company is decentralised and each division is evaluated as a profit centre. The Bottle Division produces bottles that can be used by the Cologne Division. The Bottle Division’s variable manufacturing cost per unit is $2.00 and shipping costs are $0.10 per unit. The Bottle Division’s external sales price is $3.00 per unit. No shipping costs are incurred on sales to the Cologne Division. The Cologne Division can purchase similar bottles in the external market for $2.50.
Assume the Bottle Division has no excess capacity and can sell everything produced externally. Using the general rule, the transfer price from the Bottle Division to the Cologne Division would be:
A. $2.10
B. $2.50
C. $2.90
D. $3.00
6. Nova Company has two divisions: OPA Division and LPA Division. The OPA Division manufactures a single product, presently operates at 95 per cent of full capacity (100 000 units) and can sell all 95 000 units produced to outside customers. This product is also a component used in a product made by the LPA Division. OPA’s full cost of production is $22.50 per unit, including $4.50 of applied fixed overhead costs. The applied fixed overhead is calculated based on production of 95 000 units. OPA’s management believes that production can be raised to 100 000 units without affecting cost behaviour. OPA’s selling price per unit is $30 with a 10 per cent sales commission on outside sales. LPA is presently negotiating the purchase of units from OPA. LPA can purchase a comparable component outside for $29.
Using the general transfer-pricing formula, calculate a transfer price for 5000 units that would be in the best interests of the company as a whole.
A. $18.00
B. $22.50
C. $27.80
D. $29.00
