EXERCISE 13-25 (15 MINUTES)
There are an infinite number of ways to improve the division's ROI to 25 percent. Here are
two of them:
1.
Improve the sales margin to 10 percent by increasing income to $12,500,000:
ROI
=
sales margin × capital turnover
=
=
10% × 2.5 = 25%
Since sales revenue remains unchanged, this implies a cost reduction of $2,500,000 at
the same volume.
2.
Improve the turnover to 3.125 by decreasing average invested capital to $40,000,000:
ROI
=
sales margin × capital turnover
=
=
8% × 3.125 = 25%
Since sales revenue remains unchanged, this implies that the firm can divest itself of
some productive assets without affecting sales volume.

Sales margin =

£ £ = 5%
*Income = £300,000 = £6,000,000 – £3,300,000 – £2,400,000
2.
Capital turnover =
£ = £ ROI =
= £ = 2
£ ROI = 15% =

= £ Income = 15% × £3,000,000
= £450,000
Income = sales revenue – expenses = £450,000
Income = £6,000,000 – expenses = £450,000
Expenses = £5,550,000
Therefore, expenses must be reduced to £5,550,000 in order to raise the firm's ROI to
15 percent.

Yes, Fairmont’s management probably would have accepted the investment if residual
income were used. The investment opportunity would have lowered Fairmont’s 20x1
ROI because the project's expected return (18 percent) was lower than the division's
historical returns (19.3 percent to 22.1 percent) as well as its actual 20x1 ROI (20
percent). Management may have rejected the investment because bonuses are based
in part on the ROI performance measure. If residual income were used as a
performance measure (and as a basis for bonuses), management would accept any
and all investments that would increase residual income (i.e., a dollar amount rather
than a percentage) including the investment opportunity it had in 20x1.

The Assembly Division's manager is likely to reject the special offer because the
Assembly Division's incremental cost on the special order exceeds the division's
incremental revenue:
Incremental revenue per unit in special order .......................
Incremental cost to Assembly Division per unit
in special order:
Transfer price ......................................................................
Additional variable cost......................................................
Total incremental cost ..............................................................
Loss per unit in special order ..................................................

The Assembly Division manager's likely decision to reject the special order is not in the
best interests of the company as a whole, since the company's incremental revenue on
the special order exceeds the company's incremental cost:
Incremental revenue per unit in special order ....................
Incremental cost to company per unit in special order:
Unit variable cost incurred in Fabrication Division ........
Unit variable cost incurred in Assembly Division ..........
Total unit variable cost ..........................................................
Profit per unit in special order ..............................................

The transfer price could be set in accordance with the general rule, as follows:
Transfer price

= $450
+

cost

0*
= $450
*Opportunity cost is zero, since the Fabrication Division has excess capacity.
Now the Assembly Division manager will have an incentive to accept the special order
since the Assembly Division's incremental revenue on the special order exceeds the
incremental cost. The incremental revenue is still $700 per unit, but the incremental
cost drops to $600 per unit ($450 transfer price + $150 variable cost incurred in the
Assembly Division).

PROBLEM 13-46 (25 MINUTES)
1.
The Birmingham divisional manager will likely be opposed to the transfer.
Currently, the division is selling all the units it produces at $1,550 each. With
transfers taking place at $1,500, Birmingham will suffer a $50 drop in sales
revenue and profit on each unit it sends to Tampa.
2.
Although Tampa is receiving a $50 “price break” on each unit purchased from
Birmingham, the $1,500 transfer price would probably be deemed too high.
The reason: Tampa will lose $40 on each satellite positioning system
produced and sold.
Sales revenue…………………………………..
Less: Variable manufacturing costs……….
Transfer price paid to Birmingham…
Income (loss)……………………………………
$2,800
$1,340
1,500
2,840
$ (40)
3.
Although top management desires to introduce the positioning system, it
should not lower the price to make the transfer attractive to Tampa. MTI uses
a responsibility accounting system, awarding bonuses based on divisional
performance. Top management’s intervention/price-lowering decision would
undermine the authority and autonomy of Birmingham’s and Tampa’s
divisional managers. Ideally, the two divisional managers (or their
representatives) should negotiate a mutually agreeable price.
4.
MTI would benefit more if it sells the diode reducer externally. Observe that
the transfer price is ignored in this evaluation—one that looks at the firm as a
whole. Put simply, Birmingham would record the transfer price as revenue
whereas Tampa would record the transfer price as a cost, thereby creating a
“wash” on the part of the overall entity.
