i need the answer quickly Required informationProblems 10-69 and 10-70 (Algo) (LO 10-3, 4)[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]Atwater Chemicals produces an engine additive for machinery. The additive is produced by adding various ingredients toa petroleum-based lubricant. Atwater purchases the lubricant from two suppliers, Woodlawn Petroleum and SpokaneChemicals. The quality of the final product depends directly on the quality of the lubricant. If the lubricant is "off," Atwaterhas to dispose of the entire batch. Because all lubricant can be "off," Atwater uses a measure it calls the "yield," which iscomputed asYield = Good output + Inputwhere the output and input are both measured in barrels. As a benchmark, Atwater expects to get 12 barrels of goodoutput for every 16 barrels of lubricant purchased for a yield of 75 percent (= 12 barrels of output 16 barrels of lubricant).Data on the two suppliers for the past year follow:WoodlawnPetroleumTotal inputs purchased (barrels)Good output (barrels)5,6403,666Average price (per barrel)$ 118.00SpokaneChemicals3,4502,967$ 151.50Total9,0906,633$ 130.71Problem 10-70 (Algo) Activity-Based Costing of Suppliers (LO 10-3, 4)The sales manager of Woodlawn Petroleum has proposed to the purchasing manager at Atwater that Woodlawn be given an exclusivecontract to supply the lubricant. If it receives the contract, Woodlawn will guarantee a 75 percent yield on the lubricant it supplies.Required:a. Assume that the average quality, measured by the yield, and prices from the two companies will continue as in the past. What is themaximum price for lubricant that Atwater Chemicals should be willing to pay Woodlawn Petroleum under the exclusive contract?Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.Maximum price per barrel

! Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Kinnear Plastics manufactures various components for the aircraft and marine industry. Kinnear buys plastic from two vendors: Tappan Corporation and Hill Enterprises. Kinnear chooses the vendor based on price. Once the plastic is received, it is inspected to ensure that it is suitable for production. Plastic that is deemed unsuitable is disposed of. The controller at Kinnear collected the following information on purchases for the past year: Total purchases (tons) Plastic discarded Tappan 5,000 200 The purchasing manager has just received bids on an order for 330 tons of plastic from both Tappan and Hill. Tappan bid $2,112 and Hill bid $2,109 per ton. Effective cost per ton Hill 7,500 375 Required: 1-a.

ABC steel plant industry plans to manufacture a product. The product needs a special component. The industry has reviewed that the special component can be produced in the plant or bought in. An investment is required to start the production of the component for which two mutually exclusive projects A and B representing different production processes are available. The alternative option is to buy in from another company representing project C. The details of projects A and B are given in Table 3: (i) Using the information from table 3 and Discount Cash Flow criteria, calculate Pay Back Period (PBP), Account Rate of Return (ARR), Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate Return (IRR) for project A & Project B if the industry plans to sale the unit cost of RO 350. (ii) Using the annual cost data from table 3, determine which project incurs less cost if the industry considers producing 7,500 units per year. (iii) Using the table 3, determine the Break-Even quantity and margin of…
! Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below] Rex Metal Fabricators (RMF) buys scrap metal and produces components for buildings and other structures. The purchase contracts specify an average quality level of 86 percent. That is, 86 percent of the metal must be ready for use without further processing. Metal that is not ready can be treated at extra cost by RMF, and this is more cost-effective than scrapping the metal and purchasing additional amounts. The cost of treating the metal requiring further processing is $80 per ton. RMF uses two suppliers: Chopin Yards and Joe Company. During the past year, the purchasing quality data were as follows: Total purchases (tons) Average purchase price (per ton) Percentage requiring further processing Required: Chopin Yards 2,300 Joe Company 1,400 Total 3,700 $ 124.00 $ 128.00 6.0 9.5 $ 125.51 7.3 Assume all else remains the same.

Miller Manufacturing (2M) makes a variety of components for mechanized agricultural equipment. The products are similar but not identical, and all go through many of the same processes. 2M sells products worldwide and has to comply with various regulations regarding environmental and health and safety compliance. For the most part, 2M manufacturing practices comply with or exceed requirements in the countries to which it ships its products, but depending on the specific part ordered, it might have to go through additional certification processes to make the sale. The company produces to order and never has any work-in-process inventories. The manufacturing facility uses a job costing system for product costing. Manufacturing overhead is applied to jobs based on direct labor cost. The cost analyst at 2M recently put together an estimate of overhead for the coming year, which is shown in the following table: Category Amount Fabricating $ 480,000 Machining 960,000 Machine setup…
