20172018
Units of XT15 produced and sold50,00052,000
Selling price$400$470
Direct materials (square feet)160,000163,400
Direct materials costs per square foot$51$57
Manufacturing capacity in units of XT1562,50062,500
Total conversion costs$6,875,000$7,250,000
Conversion costs per unit of capacity$110$116

Total selling and customer-service costs$2,772,000$2,893,500
Selling and customer-service capacity cost per customer$15,400$16,075

Izzy's Limited produces no defective units but it wants to reduce direct materials usage per unit of XT15. Manufacturing conversion costs in each year depend on production capacity defined in terms of XT15 units that can be produced. Selling and customer-service costs depend on the number of customers that the customer and service functions are designed to support. Izzy's Limited had 165 customers in 2017 and 170 customers in 2018.
