, CORNERSTONE EXERCISES
Cornerstone Exercise 2.1
1. Unit prime cost
= (Direct materials + Direct labor)/Units
= ($120,000 + $60,000)/50,000
= $3.60
2. Unit conversion cost
= (Direct labor + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead)/Units
= ($60,000 + $25,000 + $220,000)/50,000
= $6.10
3. Unit variable product cost
= (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable overhead)/Units
= ($120,000 + $60,000 + $25,000)/50,000
= $4.10
4. Unit product cost
= (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead)/Units
= ($120,000 + $60,000 + $25,000 + $220,000)/50,000
= $8.50
5. Total direct materials, total direct labor, and total variable overhead would all in-
crease by 10 percent since the units increased by 10 percent and these are
strictly variable costs. Total fixed overhead would remain the same. Unit prime
cost would increase by 10 percent since both direct materials and direct labor
are strictly variable, and 10 percent more units would require 10 percent more
variable cost. However, unit conversion cost would increase by less than 10 per-
cent because of the presence of fixed costs.
New unit product cost
= [($120,000 + $60,000 + $25,000)(1.10) + $220,000)]/55,000
= $8.10

,Cornerstone Exercise 2.2
1. Pietro Frozen Foods, Inc.
Statement of Cost of Goods Manufactured
For the Coming Year
Direct materials
Beginning inventory .................................................. $ 5,600
Add: Purchases ......................................................... 119,300
Materials available ..................................................... $ 124,900
Less: Ending inventory ............................................. 4,900
Direct materials used in production .............................. $ 120,000
Direct labor ...................................................................... 60,000
Manufacturing (Factory) overhead ................................ 245,000
Total manufacturing costs added.................................. $ 425,000
Add: Beginning work in process ................................... 12,500
Less: Ending work in process ....................................... 14,600
Cost of goods manufactured ......................................... $ 422,900
2. If the ending inventory of direct materials were $2,000 higher, then the direct
materials used in production would be $2,000 smaller, the total manufacturing
costs added would be $2,000 lower, and the cost of goods manufactured would
be $2,000 lower. No other line items would be affected.
Cornerstone Exercise 2.3
1. Pietro Manufacturing, Inc.
Statement of Cost of Goods Sold
For the Coming Year
Cost of goods manufactured ............................................................... $422,900
Add: Beginning finished goods ........................................................... 42,500
Cost of goods available for sale .......................................................... $465,400
Less: Ending finished goods ............................................................... 34,000
Cost of goods sold ............................................................................... $431,400
2. If beginning finished goods were $5,000 lower, then the cost of goods sold
would be $5,000 lower.

, Cornerstone Exercise 2.4
Pietro Manufacturing, Inc.
Income Statement
For the Coming Year
Percent
Sales ($12.50 × 49,300) .............................. $ 616,250 100.00
Cost of goods sold .................................... 431,400 70.00
Gross margin ............................................. $ 184,850 30.00
Less operating expenses:
Selling expenses .................................. $ 26,000
Administrative expenses ..................... 134,000 160,000 25.96
Operating income ...................................... $ 24,850 4.03
2. If the cost of goods sold has been 65 percent of sales for the past few years,
managers would probably be concerned. Cost of goods sold has risen by 5%,
and profit has probably declined. Managers should investigate to see why the
increase occurred, and take steps to decrease product costs or increase price,
if possible, in the coming year.
Cornerstone Exercise 2.5
1. Unit prime cost
= (Direct materials + Direct labor)/Units
= ($27,000 + $472,500)/15,000
= $33.30
2. Unit conversion cost
= (Direct labor + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead)/Units
= ($472,500 + $15,000 + $18,000)/15,000
= $33.70
3. Unit variable services production cost
= (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable overhead)/Units
= ($27,000 + $472,500 + $15,000)/15,000
= $34.30
4. Unit services production cost
= (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead)/Units
= ($27,000 + $472,500 + $15,000 + $18,000)/15,000
= $35.50
