production department rate method determines that the per-unit factory overhead is nearly the same for the two products. The multiple

4. Kosmo Co. has low profitability, while the other two customers have acceptable
margins. This is because Kosmo Co. requires many customer services, sales
order processing, and advertising support activities. For example, Kosmo Co.
orders frequently in small order sizes, which increases the sales order processing
costs; it requests a large amount of service; and it requires extensive promotional

4. The break-even formula is:
None of the costs in a flight are variable to the number of seats. Essentially, the
costs will be incurred regardless of the number of passengers on the flight.
Thus, the costs of the flight are all fixed. Given this assumption, the break-even
number of passengers is a straightforward division of the costs by the fare. The
results are (rounded to the nearest whole number):

The net income is larger because the controller took period costs and treated them
as product costs for financial reporting purposes. All of the post-manufacturing
costs should be treated as an expense in the period incurred according to generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP). If treated as product costs for financial

2. To: Management of Boom Box Sounds Inc.
From: Controller
The enclosed product profitability report indicates that our product lines provide
varying degrees of profitability. By far, our most profitable product line is the
bookshelf loudspeakers. The floor loudspeakers provide a healthy gross profit.
However, our marketing costs associated with this product line exceed our
gross profit. As a result, the product line is unprofitable as a whole. The ribbon
loudspeakers, on the other hand, have a very weak gross profit. As a result, the
product line is just barely profitable. As a result of this analysis, I offer the
following recommendations:
Bookshelf Loudspeakers
Floor Loudspeakers
We should retain the floor loudspeakers in our product portfolio. The product
provides us a healthy gross profit. Unfortunately, we spend too much on
Ribbon Loudspeakers
Ribbon loudspeakers are one of our “up and comers.” No other competitor has
a similar product. Thus, we have the market to ourselves. Yet, this product does
not meet our profitability objectives. We are unable to spend much on marketing

Adlin’s concern appears valid. Teldar Tech Inc. is presently using direct labor as an
allocation base. This method, either as a single plantwide factory overhead rate or
as multiple production department factory overhead rates, will distort the product
costs when activities are consumed by products in different proportions than their
