14) Juett Company produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a
single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 70,000 units per
month is as follows:
The normal selling price of the product is $72.90 per unit.

costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $1.10 less per unit on
this order than on normal sales.

customer and the special discounted price on the special order is $66.10 per unit. By
how much would this special order increase (decrease) the company's net operating
income for the month?

received from the overseas customer. What would be the opportunity cost of each unit
delivered to the overseas customer?
c. Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas
customer and accepting the special order would require cutting back on production of
1,300 units for regular customers. What would be the minimum acceptable price per
unit for the special order?

25) The management of Del Corporation would like to investigate the possibility of
basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity rather than on the
estimated amount of activity for the year. The company's controller has provided an
example to illustrate how this new system would work. In this example, the allocation
base is machine-hours and the estimated amount of the allocation base for the upcoming
year is 37,000 machine-hours. In addition, capacity is 44,000 machine-hours and the
actual activity for the year is 40,100 machine-hours. All of the manufacturing overhead
is fixed and is $634,920 per year. For simplicity, it is assumed that this is the estimated
manufacturing overhead for the year as well as the manufacturing overhead at capacity
and the actual amount of manufacturing overhead for the year.
Required:
Determine the underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year if the predetermined
overhead rate is based on the amount of the allocation base at capacity.

Globe is only selling 80,000 units per year through regular channels at a selling price of

follows:

order units. The special order has to be taken in its entirety. This means that by
accepting the special order, Globe will be forced to not sell 2,000 units to its regular
customers.
Required:

increase or decrease? SHOW YOUR COMPUTATIONS.
