Hello, Please See the Attachment and answer to all 5 questions (5 pages maximum) and additional 4 pages for appendix including exhibits and tables. Do not include tables or exhibits in 5 pages main essay but give reference only. Provide complete answer with appendix in one word file, No excel file is needed. No References are needed for report.



Management Accounting Assessment - Wilkerson Company Task: Task is to read the Wilkerson Case at the end of this document and then answer the following questions using the material and methodology from the slides and what I have provided only. Using any other method no matter the reason will make me reject the paper… Question 1: Create an activity-based cost model using the information from the case. Derive and report estimates of the cost and profitability of each of Wilkerson’s three product lines for the product line and for each unit of product produced. Question 2: What difference does your cost assignment have on reported costs and profitability? Question 3: What alternative cost allocations could you have done? How robust are your cost estimates? Question 4: What causes any differences between costs and profitability between traditional and ABC systems? Question 5: Suppose that Wilkerson uses capacity rather than actual levels of production for product costing. Now what difference does your cost assignment have on reported costs and profitability? Should Wilkerson use actual activity levels or capacity to calculate activity-based costs? Length: The maximum length is 5 main pages typed text in 12-point font and double spaced with 4 additional pages for an appendix that contains only tables (place tables in appendix reference them in main report) Material: The Coffee Bean Inc Case and Slides from Week 8 lay out the computational steps for ABC and provide insight into qualitative issues related to ABC (e.g., robustness, decisions regarding cost drivers and using actual vs capacity costs). Reference Textbooks: Bhimani, A., C.T. Horngren, S.M. Datar, and M.V. Rajan. 2015. Management and Cost Accounting (Pearson, 6th edition). Merchant, K.A., and W.A. Van der Stede. 2017. Management Control Systems: Performance Measurement, Evaluation, and Incentives (Financial Times/Prentice Hall, 4th edition). My comments to you: Please follow the above exactly and use the material to replicate the exact same method that was used as otherwise its not worth it. Ive had issues with accounting orders before as other methods were used whether they are correct or not is irrelevant as the task is to see us use the method and way we were taught in class, so use that please and if anything is unclear ask me. I have uploaded 4 pdf files with this that you need to carefully go through as you’ll understand through them the methodology especially week8.1 with the case study: 1.Week 8.1 / 2.Week 8.1 Coffee Bean Inc example (this lays out the computational steps)/ 3. Week 8.2 / 4. Week 8.2 Case Kranworth Chair Coporation case example. All these are used to learn and apply (the case study youll be using to answer the quesitons is the one at the end of this file)
