Clearsound uses Alpha Electronics and La Paz Company to buy two electronic components used in the manufacture of its cell phones: Component 125X and Component 30Y. Consider two activities: testing components and reordering components. After the two components are inserted, testing is done to ensure that the two components in the phones are working properly. Reordering occurs because one or both of the components have failed the test and it is necessary to replenish component inventories. Activity cost information and other data needed for supplier costing are as follows:
I. Activity Costs Caused by Suppliers (testing failures and reordering as a result)
Activity Costs
Testing components $1,200,000
Reordering components 300,000
II. Supplier Data

Answer:

Clearsound

The cost of each supplier, using ABC:

                                  Alpha Electronics           La Paz Companyl

                                  125X              30Y           125X             30Y

Unit cost                   $18.02         $32.24       $12.35      $28.35

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Activity Costs

Testing components     $1,200,000

Reordering components $300,000

Total costs =                  $1,500,000

II. Supplier Data

                                  Alpha Electronics           La Paz Company    Total

                                  125X                30Y         125X             30Y

Unit purchase price    $10                $26           $12             $28

Units purchased   120,000         84,400          15,000     15,000

Total costs of units $1,200,000 $2,194,400  $180,000   $420,000

Failed tests               1,500            780            10            10        2,300

Number of reorders     60              40             0             0            100

Activity Rates:

Failed tests $1,200,000/2,300 = $521.74

Reordering $300,000/100 = $3,000
