15. The Valley Corporation is considering (as of 1/1/08) the replacement of an old machine that is currently being used. The old machine is fully depreciated but can be used by the corporation through 2011. If Valley decides to replace the old machine, Baker Company has offered to purchase it for $50,000 on the replacement date. The disposal value of the old machine would be zero at the end of 2011.

Burnham expects the machine to generate after- tax net cash inflows from operations to equal $110,000 in each of the 7 years. Burnham’s minimum rate of return is 12%. Information on present value factors is as follows. Present value of $1 at 12% at the end of 7 periods 0.452 Present value of an ordinary annuity of $1 at 125 for 7 periods 4.564 Assuming a positive net present value of $12,000, what was the original cost of the machine?

(TCO 9) Which of the following does not describe the six steps in designing an accounting-based performance measure? (Points: 11) The issues in each step are interdependent. The decision maker will often proceed through the steps several times before deciding on one or more performance measure(s). The answers to the questions raised at each step depend on top management’s beliefs about the organization. The steps must be done in sequence. Question 10.10. (TCO 8) The proposed transfer price is based on outlay cost. Outlay cost plus opportunity cost is (Points: 11)

30. the retail price. the price representing the cash outflows of the supplying division plus the contribution to the supplying division from an outside sale. the price usually set by an absorption-costing calculation. the price set by charging for variable costs plus a lump-sum or additional markup, but less than full markup. Question 11.11. (TCO 8) Abalone & Fitch has two divisions, C and D, each operated as a profit center. C charges D $35 per unit for each unit transferred to D. Other data follow. C’s variable cost per unit $30 C’s fixed costs 10,000 C’s annual sales to D 5,000 units C’s sales to outsiders 50,000 units C is planning to raise its transfer price to $50 per unit. Division D can purchase units at $40 each from outsiders, but doing so would idle C’s facilities now committed to producing units for D. Division C cannot increase its sales to outsiders. From the perspective of the company as a whole, from whom should division D acquire the units, assuming D’s market is unaffected? (Points: 11) Outside vendors Division C, but only at the variable cost per unit Division C, but only until fixed costs are covered, then from outside vendors Division C, despite the increased transfer price Question 12.12. (TCO 8) Milton Industries is a vertically integrated firm with several divisions that operate as decentralized profit centers. Milton’s Savvy Division manufactures scientific instruments and uses the products of two of Milton’s other divisions. The Bored Division manufactures printed circuit boards (PCBs). One PCB model is made exclusively for the Savvy Division using proprietary designs, whereas less complex models are

The costs per unit of the products used by the Savvy Division are presented below. PCB Transistor Direct materials $2.50 $ .80 Direct labor 4.50 1.00 Variable overhead 2.00 .50 Fixed cost .80 .75 Total cost $9.80 $3.05 The Bored Division sells its commercial products at full cost plus a 25% markup and believes the proprietary board made for the Savvy Division would sell for $12.25 per unit on the open market. The market price of the transistor used by the Savvy Division is $3.70 per unit. Assume that the Savvy Division is able to purchase a large quantity of transistors from an outside source at $2.90 per unit. The Transistor Division, having excess capacity, agrees to lower its transfer price to $2.90 per unit. This action would (Points: 11) allow evaluation of both divisions on the same basis. subvert the profit goals of the Transistor Division while optimizing the profit goals of the Savvy Division. cause mediocre behavior in the Transistor Division as lost opportunity costs increase. optimize the overall profit goals of Milton Industries.
