The sales revenue can increase by $428.08 million without an increase in fixed assets.

What does 65% capacity mean?

65% capacity means that the company is currently using only achieving 65% of sales it could have achieved with its current fixed assets, in other words, the existing assets can still accommodate more production which would increase sales to 100% capacity before additional investment in fixed assets is required.

This means that increase in sales revenue that could be achieved using existing assets is sales revenue at 100% capacity minus the level of sales which is only 65% of the optimum level.

65% capacity sales revenue=100% capacity sales revenue*65%

65% capacity sales revenue= $795 million

100% capacity sales revenue=unknown(assume it is X)

$795 million=X*65%

X=$795 million/65%

X=100% capacity sales revenue=$1223.08 million

increase in sales=$1223.08 million-$795 million

increase in sales=$428.08 million

A manufactured product has the following information for June. Standard Actual Direct materials (7 lbs. @ $9 per lb.) 60,000 lbs
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

price variance       12,000 U

quantity variance  4,500 U

Explanation:

(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance

std cost  $9.00

actual cost  $9.20

quantity 60,000

These are givens so no calculation needed.

(9-9.20) \times 60,000= DM \: price \: variance

difference  $(0.20)

price variance  $(12,000.00)

The difference is negative, we purchase at a higher price, so the variance is unfavorable

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity        59500.00 (7 lbs per unit x 8,500 untis manufactured)

actual quantity 60000.00

std cost                         $9.00

(59,500-60,000) \times 9 = DM \: quantity \: variance

difference                       -500.00

efficiency variance  $(4,500.00)

The difference betwene standard lbs and the actual lbs used into production is negative, we use more lbs than standard. This variance is also unfavorable.
