Kop Corporation's residual income is:
A) $1,800
B) $5,400
C) $2,700
D) $3,600
Ans: A AACSB: Analytic AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Reporting LO: 2; 3 Level: Medium
Solution:
Net operating income = Sales × Margin on sales = $120,000 × 7.5% = $9,000
Residual income = Net operating income − (Average operating assets × Minimum required rate of return) = $9,000 − ($60,000 × 12%) = $9,000 − $7,200 = $1,800

B) -$20,118
C) $20,118
D) -$7,900
Ans: A AACSB: Analytic AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Reporting LO: 3 Level: Easy
Solution:
Residual income = Net operating income − (Average operating assets × Minimum required rate of return) = $143,700 − ($970,000 × 14%) = $143,700 − $135,800 = $7,900
40. In November, the Universal Solutions Division of Keaffaber Corporation had average operating assets of $480,000 and net operating income of $46,200.

A) -$6,600
B) $5,082
C) $6,600
D) -$5,082
Ans: A AACSB: Analytic AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Reporting LO: 3 Level: Easy
Solution:
Residual income = Net operating income − (Average operating assets × Minimum required rate of return) = $46,200 − ($480,000 × 11%) = $46,200 − $52,800 = -$6,600

C) $12,000
D) $48,000
Ans: C AACSB: Analytic AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Reporting LO: 3 Level: Easy
Solution:
Residual income = Net operating income − (Average operating assets × Minimum required rate of return) = $60,000 − ($240,000 × 20%) = $60,000 − $48,000 = $12,000

Division B of the same company would like to use the part manufactured by Division A in one of its products. Division B currently purchases a similar part made by an outside company for $38 per unit and would substitute the part made by Division A. Division B requires 5,000 units of the part each period. Division A is already selling all of the units it can produce to outside customers. If Division A sells to Division B rather than to outside customers, the variable cost per unit would be $1 lower. What is the lowest acceptable transfer price from the standpoint of the selling division?
A) $40
B) $39
C) $38
D) $37
Ans: B AACSB: Analytic AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Decision Making; Reporting Appendix: 12A LO: 4 Level: Hard
Solution:
Transfer price ≥ Variable cost per unit + (Total contribution margin on lost sales ÷ Number of units transferred) = ($30 − $1) + [($40 − $30) × 5,000] ÷ 5,000 = $29 + $10 = $39

At the end of the year, actual Logistics Department variable costs totaled $305,040 and fixed costs totaled $418,680. The Atlantic Division had a total of 2,600 shipments and the Pacific Division had a total of 5,600 shipments for the year.

A) $28,920
B) $9,840
C) $19,080
D) $0
Ans: A AACSB: Analytic AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Reporting Appendix: 12B LO: 5 Level: Medium
Solution:
Actual Logistics Department cost incurred = $305,040 + $418,680 = $723,720
Logistics Department charged to operating divisions
= [$36 per shipment × (2,600 shipments + 5,600 shipments)] + $399,600
= [$36 per shipment × 8,200 shipments] + $399,600
= $295,200 + $399,600 = $694,800
Actual Logistics Department cost not charged to operating divisions
= $723,720 − $694,800 = $28,920
