A large and important customer, Ceesay plc, has approached Jamieson Tech Ltd and offered them ?304,000 for 100 units of product CPO.
The management of Jamieson Tech Ltd is considering this special order, especially as tightening market conditions mean that the future lling price of CPO is expected to fall by 10%. However, in order to meet the tight deadlines for this special order they would need to reorgani their usual production process, in particular to access the extra labour required in Department A. They are therefore considering the following options:
小燕子的画法>六年级日记100字 (a) Reject Ceesay’s offer assuming the expected fall in lling price.
(b) Accept the special order, but make up the labour required by temporarily closing Department C (which makes product TUC) and transferring employees from Department C to Department A. This will result in a lost contributio
n of ?10,000 from ceasing to make and ll product TUC. In addition, the temporary closure of Department C will result in its share of Fixed Overheads being re-allocated to the
other departments. This will increa the Departmental Overhead Absorption Rates and will mean that, for this special order, Department A will incur additional Fixed Overheads of ?2,000 and Department B will incur additional Fixed Overheads of ?1,000.
混血人 (c) Accept the special order, but utili overtime in Department A in order to meet the requirements of this job (this would avoid the need to clo Department C). This would mean that the direct labour for this order in Department A would be charged at time-and-a-half.
In addition, if the company went ahead with options (b) or (c) above, and accepted
the special order from Ceesay, their direct material suppliers would give them an additional trade discount of 20%.
You are required to:
(i) Produce a Marginal Cost Statement, using the above information, analysing the three alternative cours of action. The statement should show clearly the effect of changing costs/and or revenue levels on Contribution and Profit. Assume all Overhead Costs are Fixed Costs.
(ii) Produce a short report to the management of Jamieson Tech Ltd, in which you recommend and justify an appropriate cour of action.
