Problem 10.

25

1. Minimum transfer price = $3.45


Maximum transfer price = $3.45
Since a market price exists for the transistor used by the Systems Division, the
minimum and maximum transfer prices are the same.

2. Yes, since the variable cost of the transistor is $2.00 ($2.75 less the $0.75 of allocated
fixed overhead).

3. The negotiated price of $11.00 provides profit for both the Board and Systems
divisions. The Board Division realizes a profit of $1.70 per board ($11.00 – $9.30). The
Systems Division realizes a reduction in cost of $1.00 per board ($12.00 – $11.00).
It should be noted that the $12.00 is not a true market price because this particular
board is not sold externally. Thus, the Board Division is not necessarily foregoing
profit by not selling externally at its regular markup.

Problem 10.26

1. Keimer Steel Company


Unit Contribution Margin
For the Year Ended November 30, 2015
Sales revenue.................................................. $ 25,000,000
Less variable costs:
Cost of goods sold.................................. $16,500,000
Selling expenses ($2,700,000 × 40%).... 1,080,000
................................................17,580,000
Contribution margin....................................... $ 7,420,000
Unit contribution margin = $7,420,000/1,187,200 units
= $6.25 per unit

2. a. ROI = Income before taxes/Average operating assets*


= $1,845,000/$12,300,000
= 15%
*Average operating assets = ($12,600,000 + $12,000,000)/2
= $12,300,000
Where November 30, 2014, operating assets = $12,600,000/1.05

b. Residual income = $1,845,000 – (0.13 × $12,300,000)


= $1,845,000 – $1,599,000
= $246,000

3. The management of Keimer Steel would have been more likely to accept the
contemplated capital acquisition if residual income were used as the performance
measure because the investment would have increased both the division’s residual
income and the management bonuses. Using residual income, management would
accept all investments with a return higher than 13 percent as these investments would
all increase the dollar value of residual income. When using ROI as a performance
measure, Keimer’s management is likely to reject any investment that would lower the
overall ROI (15 percent in 2015), even though the return is higher than the required
minimum, as this would lower bonuses.
4. Keimer must be able to control all items related to profits and investment if it is to be
evaluated fairly as an investment center using either ROI or residual income as
performance measures. Keimer must control all elements of the business except the
cost of invested capital, that being controlled by Raddington Industries.

Problem 10–28

1. Part 4CM Model 7AC Company


Sales..................................... $ 64,500* $ 580,000** $644,500
Variable expenses............... 46,500 479,500 526,000
Contribution margin..... $ 18,000 $ 100,500 $118,500
*While all 10,000 units could be sold externally, currently none are.
**Variable cost = $6.45 + $23.00 + $15.00 + $3.50

2. The transfer price should be the market price of $12. This is the minimum price for the
Components Division and the maximum price for the Small AC Division.

3. Unless the manager of the Small AC Division is able to increase the price of Model
7AC, he will discontinue production and will not purchase any of the component. (The
full cost of producing the window unit will increase from $54.45 to $60, a cost greater
than the current selling price.)

4. All 10,000 units of Part 4CM will be sold externally at the market price of $12 per unit.
