1. Sharia Limited Departmental Analysis

The image provides a completed departmental analysis for Sharia Limited, including a decision regarding Department B.

Sharia Limited Operating Statement

| Item | Dept A | Dept C | Total | | :------------------ | :----------- | :----------- | :----------- | | Sales | $\text{N}60,000$ | $\text{N}80,000$ | $\text{N}140,000$ | | Cost of goods sold | $\text{N}44,000$ | $\text{N}60,000$ | $\text{N}104,000$ | | Salaries | $\text{N}8,960$ | $\text{N}12,960$ | $\text{N}21,920$ | | Rent | $\text{N}2,000$ | $\text{N}3,000$ | $\text{N}5,000$ | | Utilities | $\text{N}1,900$ | $\text{N}3,800$ | $\text{N}5,700$ | | Total cost | $\text{N}52,860$ | $\text{N}79,760$ | $\text{N}132,620$ | | Net profit/loss | $\text{N}7,140$ | $\text{N}240$ | $\text{N}7,380$ |

Decision: The total profit of the company declined from $\text{N}8,900$ to $\text{N}7,380$ as a result of eliminating Department B. This indicates that Department B was contributing $\text{N}1,520$ ($\text{N}8,900 - N7,380$) to the company's overall profit. Therefore, the management of the company is advised not to eliminate Department B, as its elimination leads to a reduction in the company's total profit.

2. ABC Limited (Assignment)

The problem states:

• "A new subsidiary company ABC Limited was established. The budget for the manufacture and sales of $\text{N}20,000$ computers per month."
  • This implies a budgeted production and sales volume of $20,000$ units per month.
• "The unit standard cost of $\text{N}1,200$ is made up as follows:"
  • "Direct materials $\text{N}500$"

The provided image is incomplete for the ABC Limited problem. The breakdown of the remaining unit standard cost ($\text{N}1,200 - N500 = N700$) into direct labor, variable overhead, and fixed overhead is missing. Additionally, the selling price per unit is not provided.

Without the full breakdown of variable and fixed manufacturing costs, and the selling price, it is not possible to:

• Calculate the full product cost under marginal costing or absorption costing.
• Prepare operating statements
