Answer:
Rest of question:
... equals marginal cost.
Firms will maximize profits at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because producing after this point means that no profits will be made.
As long as the Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost, there will be profits made because the company is making more than it is spending so they should keep producing. When it gets to a point in production where the marginal revenue equals marginal cost, the company should not produce further than that.
This is because, as earlier mentioned, any further production would result in the marginal cost being larger than the marginal revenue which means that a loss will be made. The company should therefore stop at the point where MR = MC so as not to let MC get larger than MR so that no losses will be made.

Answer:
(i) 900 CDs
(ii) Greater than; $1,650
Explanation:
(1) Break-event point will be when the contribution margin from total sales is equal to fixed costs,
Contribution Margin = Selling price - variable cost
= $(21.5 - 9.5)
= $12
Contribution Margin *Number of CDs sold = $10,800
Break-even point for Studio A = 10,800 ÷ 12
= 900 CDs
(2) Studio A would be more profitable when the extra profit earned from per unit sale of CD exceeds the extra fixed cost given in Studio A.
Extra Contribution margin in Studio A = $(12-10)
= $2
Extra Fixed cost in Studio A = $(10,800 - 7,500)
= $3,300
Studio A should be chosen if sales is greater than (3300/2) = $1,650.
Answer:
9 kanban
Explanation:
The calculation of the number of kanban containers needed is given below:
= (Lead time demand + Safety stock) ÷ kanban size
where,
Lead time demand is
= 1,500 radios × 1 days
= 1,500 radios
Container size = 250 radios
Safety Stock is
= 1 ÷ 2 day × 1,500 radios
= 750 radios
So, the number of kanban containers needed is
= (1,500 radios + 750 radios) ÷ (250 radios)
= 9 kanban
We simply used the above formula to find out the required kanbans
Answer:
40%
Explanation:
The Dean company have a sales of $500,000
The break-even point in sales dollar is $300,000
Therefore, the company's margin of safety can be calculated as follows
Margin of safety= Sales-break-even sales/sales
= $500,000-$300,000/$500,000
= $200,000/$500,000
= 0.4×100
= 40%
Hencethe company's margin of safety percentage is 40%
