  • R2 – Accounting – Case study – Resolve

    The assignment was completed previously; however, it did not fully meet the required criteria.

    Attached are the assignment file and the instructors feedback/comments.
    Kindly review and revise it as soon as possible.

    The assignment requires answering Question 1, Question 2, and Question 4 only, so the selected questions are correct. However, the solution needs major revisions in the calculations and presentation.

    Required corrections:

    1. Question 1 Cost Classification

    – The cost classification needs to be clearer and more accurate.

    – Costs should be separated into:

    – Fixed costs

    – Variable costs

    – Lab service costs

    – Scan service costs

    – The 40% payment to Manna Healthcare should be treated as a variable cost, because it depends on revenue.

    – The ultrasonographer commission should be calculated as 6% of scan revenue. For 180 scan patients:

    – Scan revenue = 180 $9 = $1,620

    – Commission = 6% $1,620 = $97.20

    – The current answer uses $194.40, which appears to double-count the commission.

    – Depreciation is included more than once. The depreciation amounts should be calculated once only.

    – Items such as furniture, computer/printer, lab equipment, and scan equipment depreciation should not be repeated under another depreciating costs section.

    – Tissues are missing from the fixed consumables and should be included.

    – Shared costs such as A4 paper, envelopes, gloves, toner, tissues, furniture, and computer/printer should be allocated clearly and consistently.

    – The operating income figures should be recalculated after fixing the above errors.

    2. Question 2 Break-even for Scan Services Only

    – The break-even calculation is incorrect.

    – The formula should be:

    – Break-even units = Fixed Costs Contribution Margin per Unit

    – Break-even sales = Break-even units Selling Price

    – The contribution margin per scan should be calculated after including all variable costs:

    – Selling price per scan = $9

    – Manna Healthcare share = 40% $9 = $3.60

    – Gel = $1.25

    – Thermal print paper = $2.50

    – Ultrasonographer commission = 6% $9 = $0.54

    – Total variable cost per scan = $7.89

    – Contribution margin per scan = $9 $7.89 = $1.11

    – The answer currently states that the break-even point is around 99 or 100 patients, but this does not match the correct contribution margin calculation.

    – The fixed costs also need to be recalculated after removing duplicated depreciation.

    3. Question 2 Break-even for Lab Services Only

    – The lab services section has inconsistent variable cost numbers.

    – In one table, variable costs are shown as $892.20, but later they are shown as $352.20. This needs to be corrected.

    – The 40% Manna Healthcare share must be included as a variable cost for lab services.

    – The CEO/lab technician salary appears to be double-counted in the fixed cost section. Please remove any duplicated salary items.

    – The break-even units and sales for lab services should be recalculated using the correct fixed costs and contribution margin per unit.

    – Also, the statement $11.25 per scan is incorrect in the lab section. It should say $11.25 per lab service, not per scan.

    4. Question 4 Multiproduct Break-even

    – This section needs to be recalculated.

    – The current break-even result of 161 patients appears to be too low because the calculation seems to exclude the 40% Manna Healthcare share from variable costs.

    – The correct sales mix should be:

    – Scan services: 60%

    – Lab services: 40%

    – The weighted-average contribution margin should be calculated using the correct contribution margin per unit for both services.

    – The break-even should then be calculated as:

    – Break-even total patients = Total Fixed Costs Weighted-Average Contribution Margin

    – After that, the total patients should be split based on the sales mix:

    – 60% scan patients

    – 40% lab patients

    – The break-even revenue should also be recalculated.

    – Please avoid saying recoup the initial investment in Question 4 because this question is about monthly break-even, not recovering the original investment.

    5. Wording and Presentation Issues

    – Replace administration with services or patients where appropriate.

    – Replace filter administration with scan services.

    – Use consistent terminology throughout:

    – Lab services

    – Scan services

    – Patients

    – Break-even units

    – Break-even sales

    – Make sure all tables have clear headings and that the calculation steps are shown clearly.

    – The final answer should include a short explanation of what each result implies, especially in Question 2 and Question 4.

    Overall, the structure is acceptable, but the calculations need to be corrected before submission. The most important parts to fix are Question 2 and Question 4, because the current break-even results are not reliable.
