The CEO would like to use the some of the shingle scrap materials to build cedar dollhouses. While this new product line would add additional raw materials and be more time-intensive to manufacture than the cedar shingles, this new product line will be able to leverage ABC’s existing manufacturing facilities as well as the current staff. Although this product line will require added expenses, it will provide additional revenue and gross profit to help reach the growth targets. The CEO is relying on you to help decide how this project can be afforded. Provide details about the estimated product costs, what is needed to break even on the project, and what level of return this product is expected to provide.Financial information is contained in this document Final Paper SpreadsheetWrite a five- to seven-page financial statement analysis of a public company, formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

Why or why not?If the company needs additional financing beyond what ABC Company can provide internally (either now or sometime throughout the life of the project), how would you suggest the company obtain the additional financing, equity or corporate debt, and why?Product costABC Company believes that it has an additional 5,000 machine hours available in the current facility before it would need to expand. ABC Company uses machine hours to allocate the fixed factory overhead, and units sold to allocate the fixed sales expenses. Bases on current research, ABC Company expects that it will take twice as long to produce the expansion product as it currently takes to produce its existing product.What is the product cost for the expansion product under absorption and variable costing?By adding this new expansion product, it helps to absorb the fixed factory and sales expenses.

What about cash flow?Considering the cash flow impact of the equipment as well as the time-value of money, would you recommend that ABC Company purchases the equipment? Why or why not? ConclusionWhat are the major risk factors that you see in this project?As the controller and a management accountant, what is your responsibility to this project?What do you recommend the CEO do?Section heading titles should be centered and in bold.
