Hill Industries had sales in 2016 of $6,800,000 and a gross profit of $1,100,000. Management is considering two alternative budget plans to increase its gross profit in 2017. Plan A would increase the selling price per unit from $8.00 to $8.40. Sales volume would decrease by 10% from its 2016 level. Plan B would decrease the selling price per unit by $0.50. The marketing department expects that the sales volume would increase by 100,000 units.
At the end of 2016, Hill has 40,000 units of inventory on hand. If Plan A is accepted, the 2017 ending inventory should be equal to 5% of the 2017 sales. If Plan B is accepted, the ending inventory should be equal to 60,000 units. Each unit produced will cost $1.80 indirect labor, $1.40 indirect materials, and $1.20 in variable overhead. The fixed overhead for 2017 should be $1,000,000.
1. Prepare a sales budget for 2017 under each plan. (Round Unit selling price answers to 2 decimal places, e. g. 52.70.)
2. Prepare a production budget for 2017 under each plan.
3. Compute the production cost per unit under each plan. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e. g. 1.25.)
4. Compute the gross profit under each plan.
5. Which plan should be accepted?
