Requirements: Read the Giberson's Glass Studio Case on pages 9-15 of your case book. Answer the following questions using the red tabs provided for each question. Note that Exhibit 1 and 2 have been reproduced for your convenience (see yellow tabs). Please rename the file. For Individual Files (Last & First Name, Case Name). For Group Files (Group #, Case Name). 1A. Analyze the costs in Exhibit I. Categorize them as fixed or variable. 1B. Prepare a traditional income statement for the business for the year ended August 31, 2007. Assume 40 weeks of production. Prepare a contribution margin income statement for the business for the year ended August 31, 2007. How would you describe the overall cost behavior of this business (Are variables costs significant or is it primarily a fixed cost structure)? At this point, what would be your #1 recommendation to Mr. Giberson to eliminate the net loss? 2. Prepare a variable cost analysis per unit, per product line (see tab 2.). What percentage of the materials (glass) are wasted each year? Calculate the contribution margin per unit and per minute per product line (Mr. Giberson's time is a constraining resource). Rank the products in terms of profitability (1 is most profitable and 4 is least). What's his productivity ratio? What would you tell Mr. Giberson about the product lines, the waste and his productivity ratio? If he sold only his #1 product, what would his CM be in total? How much better is this than the prior CM in total? Is it enough to breakeven? 3. What's his breakeven point in CM per minute? Explain to Mr. Giberson what it means in terms of setting prices. 4. Using the breakeven point CM per minutes, determine a set of new prices to cover Mr. Giberson's costs. Calculate the change in dollars and percentage terms. Explain the results to Mr. Giberson. 5. What else would you recommend to Mr. Giberson? 6. Prepare a proof of the break-even point (zero profit) using the new prices you calculated in 4. 7. Complete the three potential scenarios below to determine the net impact on income from hiring a new employee to do the cold work and allocating the cold time to the hot time required to produce the additional units (PINK AREAS ONLY). What do you make of the necessary increases in volume? What additional information would you need to evaluate potential achievement of the scenarios? 8. Mr. Giberson received a call from a lighting manufacturer to create custom globes for a unique glass fixture. The company was interested in purchasing 250 of the custom glass globes and had stipulated that they would pay no more than $25 per globe. Now that Mr. Giberson had some of your suggested pricing tools, he was equipped to go after the job. After Mr. Giberson assessed the particulars of the job, he determined the job would require the following materials and labor per globe: Materials: .5 pounds of material per globe Equivalent units: he estimated that each glass globe would be equivalent to 1 pieces of his regular work (for applying the variable operating expenses). Labor: 20 minutes per globe (15 minutes of hot time and 5 minutes of cold time) Fixed cost would be applied at the rate of $.65 per minute of total hot and cold time Complete the job cost sheet and calculate the expected profit if markup on cost is set at 50%. Using the maximum price, what's his expected profit on the job? Should he take the job? 9. Create a prioritized list of recommendations for Mr. Giberson. Evaluate whether you have sufficient data to back up these recommendation or if you need additional information to advise him appropriately. Explain to him the difference between job-order costing and process costing and advise him on which method is best for his business?

[11] Roy Company manufactures Product X in a two-stage production cycle in Departments A and B. Materials are added at the beginning of the process in Department B. Roy uses the weighted-average method. BWIP (6,000 units) for Department B was 50% complete as to conversion costs. EWIP (8,000 units) was 75% complete. During February, 12,000 units were completed and transferred out of Department B.
