1. What sourcing decision for the X73 materials is in the best interest of: a) The Electronic Components Division (ECD)? While we assume the other two supplies won’t source components from ECD, apparently the sourcing decision would favour ECD if HighResolution is selected (€ 3600) since the capacity is not full yet

b) The Imaging Systems Division (ISD)?
|Target Price of X73 |€340,000 | |
| | | |
|Manufacturing Cost |HighResolution |Display Tech. Inc. |
|Display |€140000 |€105000 |
|Other Components |€72000 |€72000 |
|Conversion (Fixed) |€117700 |€117700 |
|Conversion (Variable) |€26300 |€26300 |
|GP for ISD |€-16,000 |€19,000 |

After putting all costs incurred in manufacturing of X73, if ISD select HighResolution as the supplier, the gross profit is negative, if display tech is selected, it will be positive. It’s obviously choosing Display Tech. as the supplier would fit the best interest of ISD.

c) The High Resolution Division? It is obvious that High Resolution would be benefited if he is selected as the supplier of the display (€35000).

d) MedQuip AG as a whole? As attached profit for 3 divisions are calculated in their respect, while we taken into account all benefits for the whole group by adding up benefits all 3 divisions, the benefit to the group is €22600 compared to €19000 if display tech. inc is selected. Therefore, High Resolution should be selected if we solely consider

    As we know from the case, the Superior is implementing the standard cost system which was introduced in early 2005---“Next year’s standard costs were last year’s actual per unit costs adjusted for anticipated cost changes”. By looking at Exhibit 2 and Exhibit 4, we could compare the level of all the costs under the items. The applicable way is to focus on “Variances” which indicate the degrees of changes of all the direct and indirect costs between 2004 & 2005. In addition, the mark of “+” indicates favorable and positive improvement and the mark of “-“indicates unfavorable and negative declines. Therefore, we could obviously observe the major changes in the company are mainly Rent (+259), Indirect Labor (+213) and Depreciation (+642), others factors remain comparatively small different from last years. We could thus conclude that these 3 factors are the main reasons that enabled Superior to improve profitability.…

Through out the play there are many figures and allusions that are present in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet such as Echo. The Greek mythological figure, Echo, is an important allusion in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet because her story emphasizes Romeos selfish nature which is part of his tragic flaw.…
