Answer:

Profit Maximisation

Explanation:

Profit is the difference between total revenue (receipts) from sale & total cost (expenditure) on production.

Total Revenue = Price x Quantity ; Total Cost = Average Cost x Quantity

Economists study all the producer behaviour, based on assumption that : Goal of firm is Profit Maximisation.

Maximising Profit implies maximising the difference between Total Revenue & Total Cost [ TR - TC] . This further leads to producer equilibrium rule of Marginal Revenue = Marginal Cost [MR = MC] ; i.e additional revenue per unit sold equals additional cost per unit production.

The depreciation expenses to be shown in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended (31-05-2019) is R26,295.

<h3>What is depreciation?</h3>

Depreciation can be defined as a process in which the monetary (financial) value of an asset decreases or falls over time, especially due to wear and tear.

<h3>How to determine the depreciation expenses?</h3>

First of all, we would calculate the expected number of units produced by CAAT as follows:

Expected number of units produced = 15,000 + 13,000 + 11,000 + 10,500 + 10,500

Expected number of units produced = 60,000.

Mathematically, the depreciation expenses is given by:

Depreciation expenses = Actual units produced/expected units produced × cost price

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Depreciation expenses = 9,000/60,000 × 175,300

Depreciation expenses = R26,295.

Neko [114]

Answer:

Total contribution margin= $1,884,180

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct Materials 150

Direct Labor 28

Variable Manufacturing Overhead 25

Variable Selling 16

Sales in units= 10,130

Selling price= $420

Direct material cost= 150*1.1= $165

<u>First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:</u>

Unitary contribution margin= selling price - total unitary variable cost

Unitary contribution margin= 420 - (28 + 25 + 16 + 165)

Unitary contribution margin= $186

<u>Now, the total contribution margin:</u>

Total contribution margin= 10,130*186

Total contribution margin= $1,884,180
