Q.1. Northminister Ltd. produces clocks and has two divisions: the Frames Division and the Works
Division. The Frames Division produces the outside casings for the clocks, which it sells to the
outside market. The casing for the Desktop Grandfather sells for Rs. 135. The casing has
variable costs per unit of Rs. 72 and fixed costs of Rs. 280,000, based on monthly production of
5,500 casings. Each casing could be sold to outside customers by the Frames Division, as
casings are in high demand. The Frames Division has no idle capacity.
The Works Division uses the casing in the production of the Desktop Grandfather clock, one
of its most popular clocks. The market price of a Desktop Grandfather clock is Rs. 275. The
Works Division can acquire casings from outside supplier for Rs. 140. The manager of the
Works Division is interested in purchasing 3,000 casings from the Frames Division, but he
wants to negotiate for a lower transfer price of Rs. 130. The current transfer price for a casing is
full market price of Rs. 135. The fixed costs in producing Desktop Grandfather clocks are
Rs. 104,000, and the variable cost of producing a clock is Rs. 85, excluding the casing.
Required:
What is the operating profit before tax for each division using the market transfer price of
Rs. 135? Calculate the operating profit before tax for the both divisions and the entire company.
