of 15 stores in her region. Store managers are moved
annually. Each store manager's income is very dependent on
the direct contribution margin of that store. For the past
year, Store 9 has been managed by a person who has

is about to be promoted to a larger store. Zoya notices
several items that bother her.
Store 9 has almost no personnel training expenses relative to
other stores.
Store 9 has stopped participating in numerous community
events that gave the store significant visibility but did incur
substantial expenses.

had a severe drop in profits due to higher operating
expenses.
The advertising budget was spent almost entirely in the first
four months of the year, with almost nothing spent in the last
several months.

Auerbach Enterprises manufactures air conditioners for
automobiles and trucks manufactured throughout
North America. The company designs its products with
flexibility to accommodate many makes and models of
automobiles and trucks. The company’s two main products
are MaxiFlow and Alaska. MaxiFlow uses a few
complex fabricated parts, but these have been found easy to
assemble and test. On the other hand, Alaska uses
many standard parts but has a complex assembly and testing
process. MaxiFlow requires direct materials costs
which total $135 per unit, while Alaska’s direct materials
requirements total $110 per unit. Direct labor costs per
unit are $75 for MaxiFlow and $95 for Alaska.
