1) Analysis of Hair Care Company’s citrus hair conditioner reveals that it is losing $5,000 annually. The company sells 5,000 units of citrus hair conditioner each year at $10 per unit. Variable costs are $6 per unit. None of the company’s fixed costs would be saved if the citrus hair conditioner were eliminated. What would be the increase or decrease in company net income if citrus hair condition were eliminated?

2) The luggage department of Sampson Company has revenues of $1,000,000; variable expenses of $250,000; direct fixed costs of $500,000; and allocated, indirect fixed costs of $300,000 in an average year. If the company eliminates this department, what would be the effect on net income?

3) Gopherit Corporation currently is manufacturing 40,000 units per year of a part used in its final product. The cost of producing this part is $50 per unit. The variable portion of this cost consists of direct materials of $25, direct labor of $15, and variable manufacturing overhead of $3. The company could earn $100,000 per year from the space now used to manufacture this part. Assuming equal quality and availability, what is the maximum price per unit that Gopherit Corporation should pay to buy the part rather than make it? (The total fixed costs would not be affected by this decision.)
