Answer:

$362,000

Explanation:

The market value of the building is an opportunity cost that is avoidable.

Ramos would avoid the real estate taxes if it sold the building.

Therefore,

Amount of avoidable cost associated with the segment:

= Annual advertising expense + Market value of the building (opportunity cost) + Annual maintenance costs on equipment + Annual real estate taxes on the building + Annual supervisory salaries

= $ 70,000 + $80,000 + $56,000 + $6,000 + $150,000

= $362,000

yarga [219]

Answer:

$490,000.

Explanation:

To find out sales of Opal Company we will use below equation,

Sales = Variable cost + Fixed cost + Target profit

variable cost margin will be (1 - contribution margin)

= 0.7 (1 - 0.3)

we will consider sales as x,

x = 0.70x + $49,000 + 0.20x

x = 0.90x + $49,000

x - 0.90x = $49,000

x = $49,000 / 0.10

x = $490,000.

Sales = $490,000.
