Ex 3: Dado, Inc. is preparing its budget for the second quarter. The following sales data have
been forecasted:
April May June July Aug.
Unit sales……………….. 640 720 780 620 660

Additional information follows:

Inventory on March 31: 192 Units
Desired ending inventory each month: 30% of next month's sales
Prepare a merchandise purchases budget for the total units to be purchased in the months of
April, May, and June, as well as the total unit purchases for entire the quarter.

Ex4: Lafayette Company's experience shows that 20% of its sales are for cash and 80% are on

45% are collected in the second month, and 5% prove to be uncollectible. Calculate the
following. Show all calculations!

Ex5: Anniston Co. planned to produce and sell 40,000 units. At that volume level, variable costs
are determined to be $320,000 and fixed costs are $30,000. The planned selling price is $10 per
unit. Anniston actually produced and sold 42,000 units.

Using a contribution margin format:

(a) Prepare a fixed budget income statement for the planned level of sales and production.
(b) Prepare a flexible budget income statement for the actual level of sales and production.
Ex 6: Engineworks Co. provides the following fixed budget data for the year:

Required:
Prepare a flexible budget performance report for the year using the contribution margin format.

Ex 7: City Park College allocates administrative costs to its teaching departments based on the
number of students enrolled, while maintenance and utilities are allocated based on square feet of
classrooms. Based on the information below, what is the total amount of expenses allocated to
each department (rounded to the nearest dollar) if administrative costs for the college were
$180,000, maintenance expenses were $70,000, and utilities were $85,000?

Teaching Size of
Department Students Classroom
Electronics 117 900 sq. ft.
Automotive 156 750 sq. ft.
Computers 429 1,200 sq. ft.
Plumbing 78 150 sq. ft.

Ex8: A company has just received a special, one-time order for 1,000 units. Producing the order
will have no effect on the production and sales of other units. The buyer’s name will be stamped
on each unit, at a cost of $1.50 per unit. Normal cost data, excluding stamping, follows:

Direct materials…………………………… $ 10 per unit

Direct labor……………………………….. 16 per unit
Variable overhead………………………… 4 per unit
Allocated fixed overhead…………………. 12 per unit
Allocated fixed selling expense…………… 8 per unit

Prepare an analysis that indicates the selling price per unit this company will require to earn
$3,000 on the order.

Ex9: A company is considering two alternative investment opportunities, each of which requires
an initial cash outlay of $110,000. The expected net cash flows from the two projects follow:

Project A Project Z
Year 1 $ 30,000 $ 44,000
Year 2 44,000 70,000
Year 3 70,000 30,000
Totals $144,000 $144,000

Required:
(1) Based on a comparison of their net present values, and assuming the same discount rate
greater than zero is required for both projects, which project is the better investment?
(2) Use the table values below to find the net present value of the cash flows associated with
Project A, discounted at 12%:

Periods Present value of 1 at 12%

1………………. 0.8929
2………………. 0.7972
3………………. 0.7118
Ex10 A company produces two boat models, Flyer and Skimmer. Both products are being
considered for major investment projects next year. Relevant data follow:

New investment ……………….. $424,000 $380,000

Year 1 150,000 130,000
Year 2 160,000 130,000
Year 3 170,000 130,000

Required:
Use the payback period to evaluate these two investment projects.
