Summit Outdoor Gear is evaluating whether to discontinue one of its lower-margin product lines. Internal accounting reports show that the product generates only a small contribution toward fixed costs, and on a standalone basis appears barely profitable. However, recent customer analytics indicate that a significant portion of customers who purchase this product also buy higher-margin items during the same transaction. The operations manager argues that the product should be discontinued based on its weak financial performance, while the marketing manager believes it plays a strategic role in driving overall profitability. Senior management wants to ensure that the decision reflects appropriate use of managerial accounting information. Which of the following is the most appropriate conclusion?

Northline Equipment is preparing its production plan for June. Forecasted sales for June are 9,000 units, and expected sales for July are 11,000 units. The company’s policy is to maintain ending inventory equal to 10% of the following month’s sales. Beginning inventory for June is 950 units. Due to rising storage costs and recent cash flow pressure, the operations manager proposes temporarily suspending the inventory policy and producing only enough units to meet June’s expected sales. The controller disagrees, noting that deviations from policy can create operational risks in subsequent periods. Management must decide whether to follow the established policy or adjust production in response to current conditions. What is the financial impact on June production volume if the company follows its inventory policy instead of producing strictly to meet June sales?
