The president of the university has calculated the cost per student in the following manner: $30,600,000\/4200 students = $7286 per student.

The machine being used for the operation has a tax book value of $80,000, with an annual depreciation expense of $8,000. It has a salvage value (resale value) of $40,000, is in good working order, and will last, physically, for at least 10 more years. The proposed machine will perform the operation so much more efficiently that Baltic engineers estimate that labor, material, and other direct costs of the operation will be reduced $60,000 a year if it is installed. The proposed machine costs $240,000 delivered and installed, and its economic life is estimated at 10 years, with zero salvage value. The company expects to earn 14 percent on its investment after taxes (14 percent is the firm\u2019s cost of capital). The tax rate is 40 percent, and the firm uses straight-line depreciation. Any gain or loss on the machine is subject to tax at 40 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Should Baltic buy the new machine?<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n<p>4- The Alpha Division of the Carlson Company manufactures product X at a variable cost of $40 per unit. Alpha Division\u2019s fixed costs, which are sunk, are $20 per unit. The market price of X is $70 per unit. Beta Division of Carlson Company uses product X to make Y. The variable costs to convert X to Y are $20 per unit and the fixed costs, which are sunk, are $10 per unit. The product Y sells for $80 per unit.<\/p>\n<p>Required:<\/p>\n<p>a. What transfer price of X causes divisional managers to make decentralized decisions that maximize Carlson Company\u2019s profit if each division is treated as a profit center?<\/p>\n<p>b. Given the transfer price from part (a), what should the manager of the Beta Division do?<\/p>\n<p>c. Suppose there is no market price for product X.
