33. Accounting Rate of Return

Exercise 14-27
Accounting Rate of Return

You may use the attached spreadsheet to help you complete this activity, but you are not required to do so. You will find the spreadsheet by clicking on the link in the drop-down menu above.

Each of the following scenarios is independent. Assume that all cash flows are after-tax cash flows.

a. Cobre Company is considering the purchase of new equipment that will speed up the process for extracting copper. The equipment will cost $3,600,000 and have a life of five years with no expected salvage value. The expected cash flows associated with the project are as follows:

b. Emily Hansen is considering investing in one of the following two projects. Either project will require an investment of $75,000. The expected cash revenues minus cash expenses for the two projects follow. Assume each project is depreciable.

c. Suppose that a project has an ARR of 30 percent (based on initial investment) and that the average net income of the project is $120,000.

d. Suppose that a project has an ARR of 50 percent and that the investment is $150,000.

1. Compute the ARR on the new equipment that Cobre Company is considering. Round your answer to one decimal place.
_________________ %

2. Conceptual Connection: Which project should Emily Hansen choose based on the ARR? Notice that the payback period is the same for both investments (thus equally preferred).

_________________

Unlike the payback period, explain why ARR correctly signals that one project should be preferred over the other.

The input in the box below will not be graded, but may be reviewed and considered by your instructor.

34. Amount Charged Erroneously to Repairs Expense
Kentucky Enterprises purchased a machine on January 2,2010, at a cost of $120,000. An additional $50,000 was spent for installation, but this amount was charged erroneously to repairs expense. The machine has a useful life of five years and a salvage value of $20,000. As a result of the error,
a. Retained earnings at December 21, 2011, was understated by $30,000 and 2011 income was overstated by $6,000.
B. retained earnings at December 31,2011, was understated by $38,000 and 2011 was overstated by $6,000.
c. retained earnings at December 31, 2011, was understated by $30,000 and 2011 income was overstated by $10,000.
d. 2010 income was understated by $50,000.

Plant-wide, department, and activity-cost rates. Acclaim Inc. makes two styles of trophies, basic and deluxe, and operates at capacity. Acclaim does large custom orders. Acclaim budgets to produce 10,000 basic trophies and 5,000 deluxe trophies. Manufacturing takes place in two production departments: forming and assembly. In the forming department, indirect manufacturing costs are accumulated in two cost pools, setup and general overhead. In the assembly department, all indirect manufacturing costs are accumulated in one general overhead cost pool. The basic trophies are formed in batches of 200 but because of the more intricate detail of the deluxe trophies, they are formed in batches of 50. The controller has asked you to compare plant-wide, department, and activity-based cost allocation.

1. Calculate the budgeted unit cost of basic and deluxe trophies based on a single plant-wide overhead rate, if total overhead is allocated based on total direct costs. (Don’t forget to include direct material and direct manufacturing labor cost in your unit cost calculation.)
2. Calculate the budgeted unit cost of basic and deluxe trophies based on departmental overhead rates, where forming department overhead costs are allocated based on direct manufacturing labor costs of the forming department and assembly department overhead costs are allocated based on total direct manufacturing labor costs of the assembly department.
3. Calculate the budgeted unit cost of basic and deluxe trophies if Acclaim allocates overhead costs in each department using activity-based costing, where setup costs are allocated based on number of batches and general overhead costs for each department are allocated based on direct manufacturing labor costs of each department.
4. Explain briefly why plant-wide, department, and activity-based costing systems show different costs for the basic and deluxe trophies. Which system would you recommend and why?

44. Additional Case 5.1 About a year ago, Powley Publishing began looking for a new managing editor for.
Additional Case 5.1
About a year ago, Powley Publishing began looking for a new managing editor for its home and garden magazine. The previous editor retired after 25 years on the job. The editors and the HR department debated about the key requirements for a new managing editor. Some felt it was knowledge of the business, others thought it was interpersonal skills. A few others believed it was the ability to attract writing talent and subscribers. Finally, it was decided that HR would screen candidates, and the editors would interview finalists in conjunction with HR. The HR director would make the final choice to avoid competition among the editors.

Advertisem*nts were placed nationally. A number of candidates were tested and interviewed by the HR manager, and references were checked. After a long search, a new managing editor, Jeff, was hired, but it quickly became apparent that a poor selection had been made. Although Jeff was competent, his overbearing management style drove two talented editors to leave for jobs with competitors. Jeff fulfilled all tasks of the position except soliciting writers and subscribers. In addition, Jeff offered no ideas or direction about increasing circulation. After 10 months, the publisher let Jeff go and began looking for a new managing editor.

This time, the firm wants to find someone who is willing to tackle all tasks of the position and who has the right skills and personality mix. The firm wants someone who can start quickly and doesn't require significant training. The ability to innovate is less critical than the motivation to work hard. Recruiting funds are very limited.
39) Refer to Additional Case 5.1. The firm most likely made a poor selection decision because of an inability to:
A) agree on important job characteristics.
B) attract an adequate pool of qualified applicants.
C) decide who would make the selection decision.
D) decide what recruiting source was best to use.
40) Refer to Additional Case 5.1.Which of the following is most likely true given the problems associated with Jeff?
A) HR should have administered a personality test as part of the selection process.
B) Line personnel should have been more involved in the final selection decision.
C) HR should have conducted more thorough reference and background checks.
D) The firm should have taken an applicant-centered approach to recruiting.
41) Refer to Additional Case 5.1. Based on Jeff's performance, it is most likely that the employer failed to properly assess Jeff's:
A) abilities.
B) cognitive skills.
C) general knowledge of the publishing business.
D) motivation for doing the job for which he was hired.
42) The HR department should take sole responsibility to recruit, select, and socialize new employees.
43) Richard has a very high motivation to perform a job well but is somewhat inept. He should be hired because his motivation will offset his lack of ability.
44) An applicant-centered approach to recruiting would most likely:
A) give applicants personality tests.
B) introduce applicants to co-workers.
C) accommodate the schedules of applicants.
D) offer applicants the highest industry wages.
45) Which recruitment source has been linked to the most loyal and satisfied hires?
A) Referrals from current employees
B) Referrals from customers
C) Employment agencies
D) Online job postings
46) If a firm is concerned about changing EEO-related balances among its employee base, it should NOT use:
A) referrals from current employees.
B) college campus recruiting.
C) employment agencies.
D) advertisem*nts.
47) DF Enterprises often recruits former employees when positions become available. What is the most likely benefit of this strategy?
A) Compliance with EEO guidelines
B) Minimal worker demands for benefits
C) Worker familiarity with company values
D) Highest degree of worker loyalty and satisfaction
48) Cora's new fabric and textiles business is looking for its first employees. She hopes to open within the next two weeks and needs an inexpensive, timely recruitment method that will reach a large pool of applicants for long-term work. Her best option is to:
A) create a radio ad.
B) use online career sites.
C) use print advertisem*nts.
D) contact a local headhunter.
45. During its first year of operations, Sugarsmooth, Inc. produced
During its first year of operations, Sugarsmooth, Inc. produced 55,000 jars of hand cream based on a formula containing 10 percent glycolic acid. Unit sales were 53,500 jars. Fixed overhead totaled $27,500 and was applied at the rate of $0.50 per unit produced. The results of the year’s operations are as follows (on an absorption-costing basis):
Sales (53,500 units @ $8.50) …………………………$454,750
Less: Cost of goods sold ……………………………….160,500
Gross margin ………………………………………….$294,250
Less: Selling and administrative (all fixed) ……………120,000
Operating income ……………………………………..$174,250
At the end of the first year of operations, Sugarsmooth is considering expanding its customer base. In its first year, it sold to small drugstores and supermarkets. Now, Sugarsmooth wants to add large discount stores and small beauty shops. Working together, the company controller and marketing manager have accumulated the following information:
a. Anticipated sales to discount stores would be 20,000 units at a discounted price of $6.75. Higher costs of shipping and return penalties would be incurred. Shipping would amount to $45,000 per year, and return penalties would average 1 percent of sales. In addition, a clerk would need to be hired solely to handle the discount stores’ accounts. The clerk’s salary and benefits would be $30,000 per year.
b. Anticipated sales to beauty shops would be 10,000 units at a price of $9. A commission of 10 percent of sales would be paid to independent jobbers who sell to the shops. In addition, an extra packing expense of $0.50 per unit would be incurred because the shops require fewer bottles per carton.
c. The fixed overhead and selling and administrative expenses would remain unchanged and are treated as common costs.

Required:
1. Calculate the cost of Sugarsmooth’s ending inventory at the end of the first year under absorption costing.
2. Calculate the cost of Sugarsmooth’s ending inventory at the end of the first year under variable costing. What is operating income for the first year using variable costing?
3. Prepare a segmented variable-costing income statement for next year. The segments correspond to customer groups: drugstores and supermarkets, discount stores, and beauty shops.
4. Are all three customer groups profitable? Should Sugarsmooth expand its marketing base?
