oscar0462 posted a questionOct 29, 2012 at 9:40amMile-High Foods, Inc., was formed in March 2011 to provide prepackaged snack boxes for a new low cost regional airline beginning on April 1. The company has just leased warehouse space central to the two airports to store materials. To move packaged materials from the warehouses to the airports, where final assembly will take place, Mile-High must choose whether to lease a delivery truck and pay a full-time driver at a fixed cost of $5,000 per month, or pay a delivery service a rate equivalent to $0.40 per box. This cost will be included in either fixed manufacturing overhead or variable manufacturing overhead, depending on which option is chosen. The company is hoping for rapid growth, as sales forecasts for the new airline are promising. However, it is essential that Mile-High managers carefully control costs in order to be compliant with their sales contract and remain profitable. Ron Spencer, the company’s president, is trying to determine whether to use absorption, variable, or throughput costing to evaluate the performance of company managers. For absorption costing, he intends to use the practical-capacity level of the facility, which is 20,000 boxes per month. Production-volume variances will be written off to cost of goods sold.Costs for the three months are expected to remain unchanged. The costs and revenues for April, May, and June are expected to be as follows:Sales revenue $6.00 per boxDirect material cost $1.20 per boxDirect manufacturing labor cost $0.35 per boxVariable manufacturing overhead cost $0.15 per boxVariable delivery cost (if this option is chosen) $0.40 per boxFixed delivery cost (if this option is chosen) $5,000 per monthFixed manufacturing overhead costs $15,000 per monthFixed administrative costs $28,000 per monthProjected production and sales for each month follow. High production in May is the result of an anticipated surge in June employee vacations.April/May/June sale (units) 12,000/12,500/13,000April/May/June Production 12,200/18,000/9,000Required1.
