Question

Following a strategy of product differentiation, Arseniq Company makes a high-end Appliance, XT15. Arseniq presents the following data for the years 2016 and 2017:

                                                                                                                               2016                     2017

        Units of XT15 produced and sold 50,000                  52,500

        Selling price                                                                                                 $500                     $550

        Direct materials (square feet) 150,000                153,750

        Direct materials costs per square foot $50                       $55

        Manufacturing capacity in units of XT15 62,500                  62,500

        Total conversion costs $6,250,000           $6,875,000

        Conversion costs per unit of capacity                                                   $100                     $110

        Selling and customer-service capacity (customers)                             150                       150

        Total selling and customer-service costs $2,250,000           $2,343,750

        Selling and customer-service capacity cost per customer $15,000                $15,625

Arseniq produces no defective units but it wants to reduce direct materials usage per unit of XT15. Manufacturing conversion costs in each year depend on production capacity defined in terms of XT15 units that can be produced. Selling and customer-service costs depend on the number of customers that the customer and service functions are designed to support. Arseniq had 140 customers in 2016 and 145 customers in 2017.
