QUESTION 2
Customer 03 is unprofitable. Customer 06 has the lowest operating income and operating income as a percentage of revenue. Customer
03 is unprofitable because it has very low revenues and requires a rush order. Customer 06 has a low operating income percentage
because of many hours spent on customer orders and the cost of repair and refitting during a return visit.

Known:
Salaries of 14 employees 504,000
Setup hours capacity 28,000 therefore hours per employee = 2000
Value added standard hours 2,000
ACTUAL SETUP HOURS 26,200

SP = TOTAL COST/COST DRIVER


Answer

1 Standard Price (SP) --> standard salaries per hours 18


SQ/VALUE ADDED OUTPUT ACTIVITY 2,000 hours
AQ 28,000 hours
AU 26,200 hours
Value Added Activity Actual Cost (SP
(SP X SQ) X AQ)
36,000 Non Value Added or Volume 504,000
Variances
468,000
Value Added Activity Non Value Added or Volume Actual Cost (SP
2 (SP X SQ) Variances X AQ)

Setup 36,000 468,000 504,000


Highlighting the non value added cost is important because the non value added activities doesn’t increase the cusstomer value, so non value added co
should be reduced or eliminated

3 When the company able to reduce the demand for the setup activity from 26.200 to 4.000 hours:
Remember that one employee can get 2.000 hours, therefore in actual cost condition, the company needs 14 employees, whiile in actual used conditio
company still need 14 employees (26.200 hours:2.000 hours is more than 13)
Therefore when it is stated become 4.000 hours, then the employee needed is 2 employees (4.000 hours : 2000 hours). The effect is the company can
the cost amounted 12 employees x 2.000 hours x $ 18 = $432.000

Inspection is non value added activity as it doesn't give any impact to the customer's value. Actually, when the company can choose a good supplier to
good material comonent, they don't need to do inspection and also the unnecessary activities such as rework, reordering, and others.
