質問 1:LM operates a parcel delivery service. Last year its employees delivered 15,120 parcels and travelled 120,960 kilometers. Total costs were $194,400.
LM has estimated that 70% of its total costs are variable with activity and that 60% of these costs vary with the number of parcels and the remainder vary with the distance travelled.
LM is preparing its budget for the forthcoming year using an incremental budgeting approach and has produced the following estimates:
* All costs will be 3% higher than the previous year due to inflation
* Efficiency will remain unchanged
* A total of 18,360 parcels will be delivered and 128,800 kilometers will be travelled.
Calculate the following costs to be included in the forthcoming year's budget:
(i) the total variable costs related to the number of parcels delivered.
(ii) the total variable costs related to the distance travelled.
A. Parcel related cost for next year = $112,118; Distance related costs for next year = $59,699
B. Parcel related cost for next year = $105,306; Distance related costs for next year = $30,590
C. Parcel related cost for next year = $112,308; Distance related costs for next year = $79,590
D. Parcel related cost for next year = $115,306; Distance related costs for next year = $31,590
E. Parcel related cost for next year = $109,118; Distance related costs for next year = $89,699

質問 2:A company sells and services photocopying machines. Its sales department sells the machines and consumables, including ink and paper, and its service department provides an after sales service to its customers. The after sales service includes planned maintenance of the machine and repairs in the event of a machine breakdown. Service department customers are charged an amount per copy that differs depending on the size of the machine.
The company's existing costing system uses a single overhead rate, based on total sales revenue from copy charges, to charge the cost of the Service Department's support activities to each size of machine. The Service Manager has suggested that the copy charge should more accurately reflect the costs involved. The company's accountant has decided to implement an activity-based costing system and has obtained the following information about the support activities of the service department:

Calculate the annual profit per machine for each of the three sizes of machine, using the current basis for charging the costs of support activities to machines.
A. The profit per machine for the medium machine was: $1250
B. The profit per machine for the medium machine was: $1350
C. The profit per machine for the medium machine was: $1276
D. The profit per machine for the medium machine was: $1376

質問 6:JRL manufactures two products from different combinations of the same resources. Unit selling prices and unit cost details for each product are as follows:

* Refer to your answer in the previous question.
The optimal solution to the previous question shows that the shadow prices of skilled labour and direct material A are as follows:
Skilled labour $ Nil Direct Material A $11.70
Explain the relevance of these values to the management of JRL.
Select ALL the true statements.
A. The shadow price equals the additional contribution that would be earned from one extra unit of a scarce resource.
B. Since material A is one of the binding constraints, if the availability of material A could be increased by one unit, this would change the optimal plan.
C. The shadow price for skilled labour is NIL because although there is a shortage of skilled labour it does have a constraining effect on output of JR as other resources are more scarce.
D. In a situation such as this, where a number of resources are scarce, the shadow price of any particular scarce resource will depend on whether or not the resource is not binding.
E. The decrease in contribution as a result of this change is the value of the shadow price of material A. The shadow price thus represents the maximum premium that should be paid for an additional unit of material A.

4. TP makes wedding cakes that are sold to specialist retail outlets which decorate the cakes according to the customers' specific requirements. The standard cost per unit of its most popular cake is as follows:

The general market prices at the time of purchase for Ingredient A and Ingredient B were $23 per kg and $20 per kg respectively. TP operates a JIT purchasing system for ingredients and a JIT production system; therefore, there was no inventory during the period.
Discuss the usefulness of the planning and operational variances calculated for TP's management.
Select ALL the TRUE statements.
A) The purchasing manager's performance can't be compared with the adjusted standards that reflect the conditions the manager actually operated under during the reporting period.
B) The use of planning and operational variances will enable TP's management to draw a distinction between variances caused by factors extraneous to the business and planning errors (planning variances) and variances caused by factors that are within the control of management (operational variances).
C) Standards that failed to anticipate known market trends when they were set will reflect faulty standard setting.
D) Where a revision of standards is required due to environmental changes that were not foreseeable at the time the budget was prepared, the planning variances are controllable.
E) If planning and operational variances are not distinguished, there is potential for dysfunctional behavior especially where the manager has been operating efficiently and performance is being judged by factors outside the manager's control. In the case of TP it became evident during the period that the prevailing market prices for materials were significantly less than those set during the budget process.
