product pricing using the cost plus approach methods

Product Pricing using the Cost-Plus Approach Methods; Differential Arialysis for Accepting Additional Business Digital Displays Inc. recently began production of a new product, flat panel displays, which required the investment of $6,000,000 in assets. The costs of producing and selling 20,000 units of fat panel displays are estimated as follows: Digital Displays Inc. is currently considering establishing a seling price for flat panel displays. The president of Digital Displays has decided to use the cost-plus approach to product pricing and has indicated that the displays must earn a 15% return on invested assets. Required: Note: Round all markup percentages to two decimal places, if required. Round all costs per unit and selling prices per unit to the nearest whole dollar. 1. Determine the amount of desired pront from the production and sale of flat panel displays. 2. Assuming that the product cost method is used, determine the following: 3. (Appendix) Assuming that the total cost method is used, determine the following: a. Cost amount per unit 4. (Appendix) Assuming that the variable cost method is used, determine the following: 5. The cost-plus approach price computed above should be viewed as a general guideline for establishing long-run normal prices; however, other considerations, such as , could lead management to establish a different short-run price. 6. Assume that as of October 31,16,000 units of fat panel displays have been produced and sold during the current year. Analysis of the domestic market indlcates that 2,500 additional units are expected to be sold during the remainder of the year at the normal product price determined under the product cost method. On November 5, Digital Displays Inc. recelved an offer from Andes Visual Inc. for 1,000 units of flat panel displays at $225 each. Andes Visual inc. will market the units in Peru under its own brand name, and no variable selling and administrative expenses associated with the sale will be Incurred by Digital Displays Inc. The additional business is not expected to affect the domestic sales of flat panel displays, and the additional units could be produced using existing factory, selling, and administrative capacity, a. Prepare a differential analysis of the proposed sale to Andes Visual Inc. If an amount is zero; enter "0". b. Based on the differential analysis in part (a), should the proposal be accepted
