It’s basically the whole thing, I barely get it and I don’t have much time, so , me! Transcribed Image Text: Bowman Company manufactures cooling systems. Bowman produces all the parts necessary for its product except for one electronic component, which

is purchased from two local suppliers: Manzer Inc. and Buckner Company. Both suppliers are reliable and seldom deliver late; however, Manzer sells the

component for $89 per unit, while Buckner sells the same component for $86. Bowman purchases 80% of its components from Buckner because of its
lower price. The total annual demand is 4,000,000 components.

Suppose that Bowman loses $4,832,000 in sales per year because it develops a poor reputation due to defective units attributable to failed components. Using warranty hours, assign the cost of lost sales to each supplier. 6. EX.05.47.ALGO Manzer Buckner 2b. By how much would this change the cost of each supplier's component? Round your answers to the nearest cent. Manzer Buckner 3. Based on the analysis in Requirements 1 and 2, discuss the importance of activity-based supplier costing for internal decision making. As with product costing, accurate assignment of costs to the cost object is essential for well-grounded decision making. Suppliers can cause a firm to perform costly activities such as inspection, rework, and warranty work. The of a component is thus more than its purchase price. As this example shows, the component with the price is actually less expensive because it causes less demand on internal costly activities. Thus, the company would likely the purchases of the one supplier in favor of the other. It also might attempt to work with the one supplier which is causing significant demands on internal activities to see if the quality of its component can be increased.
