The Hard Rock Mining Company Is Developing Cost Formulas For Management Planning And
The Hard Rock Mining Company is developing cost formulas for management planning and decision-making purposes. The company’s cost analyst has concluded that utilities cost is a mixed cost, and he is attempting to find a base with which the cost might be closely correlated. The controller has suggested that tons mined might be a good base to use in developing a cost formula. The production superintendent disagrees; she thinks that direct labor-hours would be a better base. The cost analyst has decided to try both bases and has assembled the following information: Quarter Tons Mined Direct Labor-Hours Utilities Cost Year 1: First 35,000 7,000 $ 70,000 Second 22,000 5,000 $ 65,000 Third 40,000 6,000 $ 80,000 Fourth 32,000 8,000 $ 95,000 Year 2: First 38,000 16,800 $ 120,000 Second 45,000 15,800 $ 125,000 Third 50,000 14,800 $ 105,000 Fourth 48,000 17,800 $ 140,000 Required: 1(a). Using tons mined as the independent variable, prepare a scattergraph that plots tons mined on the horizontal axis and utilities cost on the vertical axis. Instructions: 1. On the graph below, use the point tool (Year 1-1st quarter) to plot tons mined on the horizontal axis and utilities cost on the Vertical axis. 2. Repeat the same process for the plotter tools (Year 1-2nd quarter to Year 2-4th quarter). 3. To enter exact coordinates, click on the point and enter the values of x and y. 4. To remove a point from the graph, click on the point and select delete option. 1(b). Determine a cost formula for utilities cost using least-squares regression. Express this cost formula in the form Y = a bX. (Round the Variable cost per unit to 2 decimal places, and Fixed Cost to the nearest dollar.) 2(a). Using direct labor-hours as the independent variable, prepare a scattergraph that plots direct labor-hours on the horizontal axis and utilities cost on the vertical axis. Instructions: 1. On the graph below, use the point tool (Year 1-1st quarter) to plot direct labor-hours on the horizontal axis and utilities cost on the Vertical axis. 2. Repeat the same process for the plotter tools (Year 1-2nd quarter to Year 2-4th quarter). 3. To enter exact coordinates, double click on the point and enter the values of x and y. 4. To remove a point from the graph, click on the point and select delete option. 2(b). Determine a cost formula for utilities cost using least-squares regression.

Would you recommend that the company use tons mined or direct labor-hours as a base for planning utilities cost? Tons mined Direct labor-hours
Mercury, Inc., Produces Cell Phones At Its Plant In Texas. In Recent Years,
Mercury, Inc., produces cell phones at its plant in Texas. In recent years, the company’s market share has been eroded by stiff competition from overseas. Price and product quality are the two key areas in which companies compete in this market. A year ago, the company’s cell phones had been ranked low in product quality in a consumer survey. Shocked by this result, Jorge Gomez, Mercury’s president, initiated a crash effort to improve product quality. Gomez set up a task force to implement a formal quality improvement program. Included on this task force were representatives from the Engineering, Marketing, Customer Service, Production, and Accounting departments. The broad representation was needed because Gomez believed that this was a companywide program and that all employees should share the responsibility for its success. After the first meeting of the task force, Holly Elsoe, manager of the Marketing Department, asked John Tran, production manager, what he thought of the proposed program. Tran replied, “I have reservations. Quality is too abstract to be attaching costs to it and then to be holding you and me responsible for cost improvements. I like to work with goals that I can see and count! I’m nervous about having my annual bonus based on a decrease in quality costs; there are too many variables that we have no control over.” Mercury’s quality improvement program has now been in operation for one year. The company’s most recent quality cost report is shown below. Mercury, Inc. Quality Cost Report (in thousands) Last Year This Year Prevention costs: Machine maintenance $ 280 $ 150 Training suppliers 6 14 Quality circles 24 95 Total prevention costs 310 259 Appraisal costs: Incoming inspection 45 24 Final testing 160 82 Total appraisal costs 205 106 Internal failure costs: Rework 120 64 Scrap 76 55 Total internal failure costs 196 119 External failure costs: Warranty repairs 69 25 Customer returns 266 94 Total external failure costs 335 119 Total quality cost $ 1,046 $ 603 Total production cost $ 4,180 $ 4,580 As they were reviewing the report, Elsoe asked Tran what he now thought of the quality improvement program. Tran replied. “I’m relieved that the new quality improvement program hasn’t hurt our bonuses, but the program has increased the workload in the Production Department. It is true that customer returns are way down, but the cell phones that were returned by customers to retail outlets were rarely sent back to us for rework.” Required: 1. Expand the company’s quality cost report by showing the costs in both years as percentages of both total production cost and total quality cost. Round your percentage answers to 1 decimal place (i.e 0.1234 should be entered as 12.3).

Assume That There Is A Fire At A Company’s Manufacturing Plant That Not Only
Assume that there is a fire at a company’s manufacturing plant that not only results in a total loss of the plant but also damages several surrounding businesses. The company anticipates material exposure from the adjacent businesses regarding both building loss and lost income claims. However, the company also expects this loss to be recovered through insurance. The company does not want to reflect this in their financial statements because it reasonably expects there to be no net financial impact. However, they are aware that the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 92 (SAB 92) generally prohibits offsetting insurance coverage before disclosing or accruing a loss contingency. As chief financial officer (CFO), discuss the guidance and advice you would provide the chief executive officer (CEO) relative to the disclosures of a potential contingent loss. Do the provisions of SAB 92 allow the company to reflect the true impact of the loss? What changes would you recommend to SAB 92? Please provide a rationale for your responses.

Problem 11-6 Pina Logging And Lumber Company Owns 3,040 Acres Of Timberland On The
Problem 11-6 Pina Logging and Lumber Company owns 3,040 acres of timberland on the north side of Mount Leno, which was purchased in 2005 at a cost of $580 per acre. In 2017, Pina began selectively logging this timber tract. In May 2017, Mount Leno erupted, burying the timberland of Pina under a foot of ash. All of the timber on the Pina tract was downed. In addition, the logging roads, built at a cost of $139,700, were destroyed, as well as the logging equipment, with a net book value of $329,400. At the time of the eruption, Pina had logged 20% of the estimated 511,900 board feet of timber. Prior to the eruption, Pina estimated the land to have a value of $220 per acre after the timber was harvested. Pina includes the logging roads in the depletion base. Pina estimates it will take 3 years to salvage the downed timber at a cost of $766,700. The timber can be sold for pulp wood at an estimated price of $3 per board foot. The value of the land is unknown, but must be considered nominal due to future uncertainties.
