Solution

First, let's calculate the total cost per unit if Wynham Stereos continues to produce the systems:

Direct materials: 61Directlabour:61 Direct labour: 62 Variable overhead: 45Fixedoverheadperunit:45 Fixed overhead per unit: 120,000 / 14,000 units = $8.57 (rounded to two decimal places)

Total cost per unit = 61+61 + 62 + 45+45 + 8.57 = $176.57

Now, let's calculate the total cost per unit if Wynham Stereos accepts the offer from the Mexican company:

Purchase price: 180Fixedoverheadperunit:180 Fixed overhead per unit: 72,000 / 14,000 units = $5.14 (rounded to two decimal places)

Total cost per unit = 180+180 + 5.14 = $185.14

So, the answers to the questions are:

Answer 1 Question 4: 61 Answer 2 Question 4: 0 Answer 3 Question 4: 62 Answer 4 Question 4: 0 Answer 5 Question 4: 45 Answer 6 Question 4: 0 Answer 7 Question 4: 8.57 Answer 8 Question 4: 5.14 Answer 9 Question 4: 0 Answer 10 Question 4: 180 Answer 11 Question 4: 176.57 Answer 12 Question 4: 185.14

From this analysis, it can be seen that Wynham Stereos should continue to produce the systems as it is cheaper than accepting the offer from the Mexican company.
