The question is reproduced in the table below for clarity
Oven Contribution
Hours Required Margin Per Unit
Muffins 0.2 $4
Coffee Cakes 0.3 $5
Answer:
Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00
Explanation:
<em>When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.</em>
Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:
Step 1
<em>Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product</em>
cont/hr ranking
Muffin $4/0.2 hour = 20 <em> 1st</em>
Coffee cakes $5/0.3 hour= 16.67 2nd
<em>Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it</em>
Step 2
<em>Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin</em>
Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000
= $ 60,000.00

Answer:
13.73%
Explanation:
Effective annual rate = (1 + APR / m ) ^m - 1

Answer:
The conversion cost per equivalent unit is $3.31
Explanation:
The computation of the conversion cost per equivalent unit is shown below:
= Total conversion costs ÷ Total equivalent units
where,
Total conversion cost = completed units + Conversion costs during April
= $6,000 + $35,000
= $41,000
And, the total equivalents units equal to
= Finished good units × percentage of completion + ending work in process units × percentage of completion
= 11,500 units × 100% + 1,500 units × 60%
= 11,500 units + 900 units
= 12,400 units
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the per unit would equal to
= $41,000 ÷ 12,400 units
= $3.31 per unit
