a newly appointed management accountant, apply your knowledge of management
accounting tools and techniques to identify potential causes and suggest
specific strategies the firm can implement to enhance cost efficiency and
profitability. Support your answer with examples based on management accounting
practices. (10 Marks)

The
company is considering discontinuing one of the products due to limited machine
capacity and increasing overhead costs. The management accountant has suggested
focusing on contribution margin per unit and overall profitability to decide
which product should be continued.
Evaluate
the profitability of both products by calculating:
1.
Contribution per unit and total contribution for each product.
2.
Profitability after fixed cost allocation (assume equal allocation of fixed
overheads).
3.
Based on your evaluation, recommend which product should be continued, with justification.

As
the management accountant, create a suitable pricing strategy by:
1.
Calculating the minimum selling price per unit for both products that would
allow the company to break even, assuming fixed costs are allocated based on
sales volume.
2.
Suggest one strategic pricing decision (e.g., penetration, skimming, or cost- plus)
based on your calculation and justify your recommendation. (5 Marks)
Q3(B).
You have been hired by a mid-sized manufacturing company that lacks a
structured management accounting system. Design a basic framework for a
management accounting process that supports decision-making, cost control, and
performance evaluation. Your framework should include key components such as
the type of information collected, reporting format, and tools used. Justify how
your proposed system will enhance strategic decision-making. (5 Marks)
