Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Activity                         Expected Cost   Activity Driver       Activity Capacity

Setting up equipment     $492,880      Number of setups              610

Ordering costs                   372,000      Number of orders         18,600

Machine costs                   963,600      Machine hours             43,800

Receiving                           501,600       Receiving hours            11,400

Total overhead costs  $2,330,080

Activity rates:

Setting up equipment   = $808 ($492,880/610) per setup

Ordering costs               = $20 ($372,000/18,600) per order

Machine costs                = $22 ($963,600/43,800) per machine hour

Receiving                        = $44 ($501,600/11,400) per receiving hour

Total direct labor hours = 8,000

Nick and Rosa are going to a music festival and are debating whether they should buy food at the festival or bring sandwiches. They only have $7 each to spend on food but would prefer the convenience of buying sandwiches at the festival to the task of preparing them beforehand. If they bring sandwiches, they will eat them regardless of how much food costs at the festival (having already expended the effort of preparing the sandwiches), and will get a utility of 10. Alternatively, if they don't bring sandwiches and are able to buy food for $7 or less, they will get utility of 20. However, if food at the festival costs more than $7 and they don't get to eat, they will get a utility of 0. The numbers in the following table reflect the utility Nick and Rosa get under each of the described outcomes.

Food Price
Options More than $7 $7 or less
Try to buy food 0 20
Bring sandwithces 10 10

If the probability that food costs more than $7 is 50%, then the expected value of utility from not preparing food is ________ , and the expected
value of utility from bringing sandwiches is___________ .

NoW, suppose Nick and Rosa a third if food at festival Costs more than $7, buy sandwiches less $7 at a deli and bring them back to the festival. If Nia and Rosa Can Choose to try to buy food at the festival, knowing they have the to buy at the deli, they now get either a utility Of 10 (if food costs more than $7 and they have to leave the festival to go to the deli) or a utility of 20 (if costs $7 or less and they can buy it at festival).

Assuming the same probabilities as before, the expected value of utility from not preparing food (with the option to convert to buying sandwiches at the deli) is ____________ therefore, the value Of the real option is ___________

The Varone Company makes a single product called a Hom. The company has the capacity to produce 40,000 Homs per year. Per unit costs to produce and sell one Hom at that activity level are: Direct materials $20 Direct labor $10 Variable manufacturing overhead $5 Fixed manufacturing overhead $7 Variable selling expense $8 Fixed selling expense $2 The regular selling price for one Hom is $60. A special order has been received at Varone from the Fairview Company to purchase 8,000 Homs next year at 15% off the regular selling price. If this special order were accepted, the variable selling expense would be reduced by 25%. However, Varone would have to purchase a specialized machine to engrave the Fairview name on each Hom in the special order. This machine would cost $10,800 and it would have no use after the special order was filled. The total fixed costs, both manufacturing and selling, are constant within the relevant range of 30,000 to 40,000 Homs per year. Assume direct labor is a variable cost. If Varone has an opportunity to sell 37,960 Homs next year through regular channels and the special order is accepted for 20% off the regular selling price, the effect on net operating income next year due to accepting this order would be:________
a. $33,320 decrease
b. $35,480 decrease
c. $33,320 increase
d. $35,480 increase
