The next four (4) items are based on the following account:
You have been engaged to assist the management of the Arcadia Corporation in arriving at certain
decisions. Arcadia has its home office in Manila and leases factory buildings in Malinta, Bulacan, and
Pasig, all of which produce the same product. The management of Arcadia has provided you with a
projection of operations for 200Z, the forthcoming year, as follows (in ‘000 of pesos):
Total Malinta Bulacan Pasig
Sales 4400 2200 1400 800
Factory Overhead- fixed 1100 560 280 260
Administration -fixed 350 210 110 30
Variable costs 1450 665 425 360
Allocated home office costs 500 225 175 100
Net Profit from operations 1000 540 410 50

The sales price per unit is P25.

Due to the marginal results of operations of the factory in Pasig, Arcadia has decided to cease operations
and sell the factory’s machinery and equipment by the end of 200Y. Arcadia expects that the proceeds
from the sale of these assets would be greater than their book value and would cover all terminating
costs.

Arcadia, however, would like to continue serving its customers in that area if it is economically feasible
and is considering one of the following three alternatives:
(1) Expand the operations of the Bulacan factory by using space presently idle. This move would
result in the following changes in that factory’s operations:
Increase over factory’s current operations
Sales 50%
Factory overhead- fixed 20%
Administration - fixed 10%
Under this proposal, variable costs would be P8 per unit sold.
(2) Enter into a long-term contract with a competitor who will serve that area’s customers. This
competitor would pay Arcadia a royalty of P4 per unit based upon an estimated of 30,000 units
being sold.
(3) Close the Pasig factory and not expand the operations of the Bulacan factory.
55. What will be the effect on the Arcadia’s net profit if it decides to expand the Bulacan factory?
a. Increase of P236,000
b. Increase of P370,000
c. Increase of P46,000
d. Increase of P150,000

b. 21,091
c. 16,657
d. 17,059

processed further. Data concerning these products appear below:
Product X Product Y Total
Allocated joint processing P20,800 P17,600 P38,400
costs
Sales value at split-off point P26,000 P22,000 P48,000

analyst would be assigned full time, and a contractor would assume the analyst's responsibilities. The
hourly rate for the regular analyst is P25. The hourly rate for the contractor is P22. The contractor
would occupy an empty office. The office has 100 square feet, and occupancy cost is P45 per square
foot. Other related data are as follows. Computer time is charged using predetermined rates. The
organization has sufficient excess computer capacity for either software development or
modification/testing of the purchased software.
