Explanation / Answer

1)Yes it would be an appropirate transfer price since consumer division varaiable cost per unti is only $104 and it is getting $150 peer unit .On the other hand commercial division cost fo material reamins the same there is neither gain or loss for him.

2) Consumer increase in income = ( transfer price - variable cost ) units transferred

                                                       = ($115 - $106) 2880   = $31,680

Commercial division increase = ( market price - Transfer price ) units

                                                    =($150 - $115) 2880 = $100,800

Overall companys incomer wull increase by $132,480

3)

4)Transfer price $126

Consumer division ( $126 -$104 )2880    = $63,360

commercial division($150 - $126)2880   =   69,120

total increase in income = $132,480
