9) A firm is selling two products, chairs and bar stools, each at $50 per unit. Chairs have a variable cost of $25, and bar stoo

Answer:

Ans.

a) BEP (units) =727; BEP($)= $36,350

b) BEP (units) =690; BEP($)=$34,500

Explanation:

Hi, in order to find the break even point in units, we have to use the following equation in both cases.

$BEP(Units)=\frac{Fixed Costs}{(AveragePrice-Average VariableCost)}$

Since the sales mix is different in both scenarios, let´s find the average variable cost for a) (notice that there is no need to find the average price because both, the stool and the chair have the same price)

$AverageVariableCost=25*\frac{1}{2} +20*\frac{1}{2} =22.5$

Now, the fraction aside each of the price is 1/2 in both cases, because the sale mix 1:1 means that the company makes 1 stool for every chair it makes, in fraction that is, for every 2 items that the company makes, 1 is a stool (1/2) and 1 is a chair (1/2).

So, our BEP in units is:

$BEP(Units)=\frac{20,000}{(50-22.5)} =727$

$BEP(Dollars)=727*50=36,350$

That means that the company has to make 727 units, which 363 are chairs and 364 are stools (you could say 364 chairs and 363 stools too, because we are heavily rouding numbers). This is represented in $36,350 in sales.

Now, for b), our average cost is:

$AverageVariableCost=25*\frac{1}{5} +20*\frac{4}{5} =21$

As you can see, the fraction changed, that is because of the new sales mix of 1:4, that is: the company makes 4 stool for every chair it makes, in fraction that is, for every 5 items that the company makes, 4 are a stools (4/5) and 1 is a chair (1/5).

Now, let´s find our new BEP in units and dollars.

$BEP(Units)=\frac{20,000}{(50-21)} =690$

$BEP(Dollars)=690*50=34,500$

That means that the company has to make 690 products, which 138 are chairs and 552 are stools. This is represented in $34,500 in sales.

Best of luck.

Other things equal, if the prices of a firm's variable inputs were to fall: one could not predict how unit costs of production w

Paha777 [63]

The correct option is C) marginal cost, average variable cost, and the average total cost would all fall.

It is correct because if the variable cost falls, it will show its effect on marginal, average variable, and average total costs and eventually these costs will fall. The variable cost is included in the calculation of marginal and total costs. And the average variable cost is derived from total variable cost.

Variable Inputs:

The variable inputs are used in performing the production function. Variable means that can change easily, so, in production, variable inputs fluctuate according to the requirement. Variable inputs include labor, raw material, and other inputs.

Reason for incorrect answers:

Option a) is incorrect because the firm can estimate the per-unit cost after reducing input prices.

Option b) is incorrect because the average fixed does not include variable cost, so it will not fall if the variable cost gets reduced.

Option d) is incorrect because the marginal cost will change according to the change in total cost. And the total cost will fall if the variable cost falls.
