Relevant Information for Decision Making Behemoth Motors Corp. (BMC) is a major manufacturer of automobiles in the United States. BMC has decided to include a Global Positioning System navigator (GPSN) in all of its Sports Utility Vehicles (SUV) beginning with the 2016 model year. These models are just now being delivered and the GPSN units are manufactured in the Detroit BMC facility. Currently and for the foreseeable future, BMC will need 8,000 GPSNs per month. The total manufacturing cost of the GSPN is $425 per unit calculated as follows: See attachment for chart: BMC experiences a high level of quality control over these units with only 2% of total production failing quality control testing. 98% of all units manufactured are installed in SUVs. Wally Wizard, the GPSN manager, has been approached by Far East Enterprises, Ltd (FEE) who has offered to outsource these units for MBC. FEE is a threeyearold electronic manufacturing company located in China and has experienced outstanding growth during that threeyear period. FEE has offered to manufacture and deliver to Detroit 8,000 GPSN units at a unit cost of $400 beginning on Jan. 1, 2016. FEE asks for a twoyear contract. Under the existing arrangement, the direct materials are all purchased locally under monthtomonth contracts. There are no future obligations under these contracts. There are 100 direct labor employees involved in this process. These employees can be laid off but if they are, BMC must pay a penalty of $66,000 per year to the employees union. This penalty will continue for 4 years. There are 10 supervisors, each earning $6,000 per month, assigned to the project. If the product is outsourced, all of these supervisors can be assigned to other supervisory positions within BMC. If the product is outsourced, half of the factory floor space can be used for storage for materials that are currently stored in rented storage facilities. These rented facilities currently cost BMC $5,000 per month. There is no alternative use for the remaining factory floor space. The current $2.50 per sq. ft. charge is based on the overall BMC factory costs. General company overhead is first assigned to operating units on the basis of total product produced and then further to produced units on a per unit basis. If the product is outsourced, this overhead will be reassigned to other operating divisions although total corporate overhead incurred will remain unchanged. You have determined the following additional facts. The units manufactured by FEE will have the same quality as those manufactured by BMC and the delivery schedule will have the same reliability as that of BMC.

Module 5 Discussion
Module 5 Discussion Going Green, Finance Executives Recognize the Benefits of Method’s Green Efficiencies (Read the complete article on page 505 attached to the additional materials). Method is a green company selling green products, and raking in more than $100 million in annual sales. Method aligns its green objectives with its costsaving goals. Method’s longterm perspective, efficient operations, and popularity with customers are catching on with competitors. It is estimated that ecofriendly household cleaning supplies will grow from 3% of the market in 2008 to 30% by 2013. If greener operations cut company costs, how will this affect their current assets and liabilities? Why might Method decide to pursue greener business activities that are costly in the shortrun? Do you think other household supply companies are beginning to realize how green products can improve their financial conditions?

Discussion Marji was raised a certain way by her parents and school. She was a “cultural Muslim” rather than a “religious Muslim,” she was raised with ideas of equality and political awareness, and she valued education highly. The Islamic Revolution confronted her with the opposite of all of those. Discuss how a child (Marji was 10 at the time) would be affected by such a radical (pardon the pun) confrontation to his/her belief system. If you experienced a cultural shock as a child/teen, you might bring that in (Any military children who moved around out there?). Or if you’ve observed such. [Mandatory rule: leave current American politics out of this discussion.
