Suppose Hewlett-Packard Company must decide whether to make or buy some of its
components from Solectron Corp. The cost of producing 50,000 electrical connectors for its
printers is $110,000, broken down as follows.
Direct materials $60,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $12,000
Direct labor 30,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead 8,000
Instead of making the electrical connectors at an average cost per unit of $2.20 ($110,000 _
50,000), the company has an opportunity to buy the connectors at $2.15 per unit. If the
connectors are purchased, all variable costs and one-half of the fixed costs will be eliminated.
Instructions
A. Prepare an incremental analysis showing whether the company should make or buy the
electrical connectors.
B. Will your answer be different if the released productive capacity resulting from the
purchase of the connectors will generate additional income of $25,000?β

Jobs and productivity! how do retail stores rate? one way to answer this question is to examine annual profits per employee. the following data give annual profits per employee (in units of 1 thousand dollars per employee) for companies in retail sales. assume Ο β 4.0 thousand dollars. 3.7 6.7 3.6 8.5 7.5 5.9 8.7 6.4 2.6 2.9 8.1 β1.9 11.9 8.2 6.4 4.7 5.5 4.8 3.0 4.3 β6.0 1.5 2.9 4.8 β1.7 9.4 5.5 5.8 4.7 6.2 15.0 4.1 3.7 5.1 4.2 (a) use a calculator or appropriate computer software to find x for the preceding data. (round your answer to two decimal places.) thousand dollars per employee (b) let us say that the preceding data are representative of the entire sector of retail sales companies. find an 80% confidence interval for ΞΌ, the average annual profit per employee for retail sales. (round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit -- thousand dollars upper limit -- thousand dollars (c) let us say that you are the manager of a retail store with a large number of employees. suppose the annual profits are less than 3 thousand dollars per employee. do you think this might be low compared with other retail stores? explain by referring to the confidence interval you computed in part (b). yes. this confidence interval suggests that the profits per employee are less than those of other retail stores. no. this confidence interval suggests that the profits per employee do not differ from those of other retail stores. correct: your answer is correct. (d) suppose the annual profits are more than 6.5 thousand dollars per employee. as store manager, would you feel somewhat better? explain by referring to the confidence interval you computed in part (b). yes. this confidence interval suggests that the profits per employee are greater than those of other retail stores. no. this confidence interval suggests that the profits per employee do not differ from those of other retail stores. (e) find an 95% confidence interval for ΞΌ, the average annual profit per employee for retail sales. (round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit 3.75 incorrect: your answer is incorrect. thousand dollars upper limit 6.41 incorrect: your answer is incorrect. thousand dollars
