3.1.        Hair Zone manufactures a brand of hair styling gel.  It is considering adding a modified version of the product—a foam that provides stronger hold.  Hair Zone’s variable costs and prices to wholesalers are:

Current hair gel

New foam product

Unit selling price

4.00

5.50

Unit variable costs

1.70

2.50

Hair Zone expects to sell 1 million units of the new styling foam in the first year after introduction, but it expects that 50% of those sales will come from buyers who normally purchase Hair Zone’s styling gel.  Hair Zone estimates that it would sell 1.5 million units of the gel if it did not introduce the foam.  If the fixed cost of launching the new foam will be $100,000 during the first year, should Hair Zone add the new product to its line?  Why or why not?

Haig Corporation, a manufacturer, is a multistate taxpayer that has nexus with States 1 and 2. During the taxable

year, Haig’s net sales were $2,000,000; $1,200,000 of these sales were made in State 1, and $800,000 were made in State 2. The corporation also received $300,000 from the rental of nonbusiness real property located in State 1. Both states employ a three-factor apportionment formula under which sales, property, and payroll are equally weighted. However, the states do not agree on the definition of apportionable income. Under State 1’s tax provisions, nonbusiness rent income is allocable and business income is apportionable, while State 2 requires a corporation to apportion all of its (business and nonbusiness) income.

Task

On 28 August, 2018 KPMG Australia published a report, Trade Wars: There are no winners, (see file attachment)  on economic modelling of the expected impact of the recent US-China trade disagreements. 

The report estimated that should the trade war escalate to involve a significant number of other countries Australian national income could be cut by approximately half a trillion dollars over 10 years – the equivalent of 40 percent of 2017’s total household disposable income. Around 60,000 jobs would be lost, and real wages pushed down by $16 per week for the average worker. 

Your task is to: 

1. Read the full report and some of the Australian media coverage of its contents (refer attachments). Summarise the key findings of the report.  You may also search the internet for other commentary on on the report. 

2. Since publication of the report what have been the subsequent developments in the US-China trade disagreements? 

3. Discuss these developments in the context of the three scenarios modelled by KPMG in its report?

Hale Company makes sets of wrenches. They are trying to decide whether to continue to make the case the wrenches are sold in, or to outsource it to another company. The direct material and direct labor cost to produce the cases total $2.00 per case. The overhead cost is $1.00 per case which consists of $0.40 in variable overhead which would all be eliminated if the case were bought from the outside supplier. The $0.60 of fixed overhead is based on expected production of 200,000 cases per year and consists of the salary of the case production manager of $40,000 per year and $80,000 in depreciation on equipment that would have no resale value. The manager would be laid off if the cases were bought externally. Additionally, if the case production were stopped, the space that it is using could be rented out for $20,000 per year. The outside supplier has offered to supply the cases for $2.80 per case. How much will Hale save or lose if the cases are bought externally?A. Save $0.40 per case.B. Lose $0.20 per case.C.
