EXERCISE 12-17 (20 MINUTES)

1. The Quark Division will probably reject the $340 price because it is be-

low the division’s variable costs of $350 per set. This variable cost in-

cludes the $140 transfer price from the Cabinet Division, which in turn

includes $30 per unit in fixed costs. Nevertheless, from the perspective

of the Quark Division, the entire $140 transfer price from the Cabinet

Division is a variable cost. Thus, it will reject the offered $340 price.
