StoreAll produces plastic storage bins for household storage needs. The company makes two sizes of bins: large (50 gallon) and r

egular (35 gallon). Demand for the product is so high that StoreAll can sell as many of each size as it can produce. The company uses the same machinery to produce both sizes. The machinery can only be run for 3,300 hours per period. StoreAll can produce 9 large bins every hour, whereas it can produce 15 regular bins in the same amount of time. Fixed costs amount to $110,000 per period. Sales prices and variable costs are as follows:
Requirements

2. To maximize profits, how many of each size bin should StoreAll produce?
3. Given this product mix, what will the company's operating income?

Answer:

1. Which product should StoreAll emphasize? Why?

  • StoreAll should emphasize on producing regular bins since the contribution margin per hour generated by that product is much higher.

2. To maximize profits, how many of each size bin should StoreAll produce?

  • Large bins = 0
  • Regular bins = 49,500 units

3. Given this product mix, what will the company's operating income?

  • operating income = $292,050 - $110,000 = $182,050

Explanation:

some information is missing, so I looked it up:

                                                   large bin        regular bin

sales price per unit                    $10.80               $9

variable costs per unit                $4.20               $3.10

contribution margin                    $6.60               $5.90

units per hour                                9                      15

contribution margin p/ hour      $59.40             $88.50

total contribution margin        $196,020         $292,050

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

b.if 100 units can be produced for $100, then 150 can be produced for $150, 200 for $200, and so forth.

Explanation:

Constant-cost means the cost of producing one unit of product does not change no matter how many products each firm in the industry decide to produce.

If the cost of production is $100 for 100 units, $150 for 150 units, $200 for 200 units and so forth, it means the unit production cost is a constant $1 regardless of the quantity to be produced.

The stock price of Atlantis Corp. is $43 today. The risk-free rate of return is 10%, and Atlantis Corp. pays no dividends. A cal
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

correct option is  a. $.05

Explanation:

given data

stock price S = $43

rate of return r= 10%

exercise price K = $40

time = 6 month

worth = $5

solution

we will apply here formula for worth that is  

P = C - S + K × e^{-rt}

here C is given worth 5 and S is stock price and K is exercise price and t is time and r is rate

so put here all value in equation 1 we get

P = C - S + K × e^{-rt}

P = 5 - 43 + 40 × e^{-0.1*6/12}

P = 5 - 43 + 38.05

P = 0.05

so here correct option is  a. $.05

If fixed costs increased and variable costs per unit decreased, the break-even point would_______________.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The correct option is D,cannot be determined from the data provided

Explanation:

Break-even points in units=fixed costs/contribution margin per unit

Contribution margin per unit =selling price -variable cost

In other words, from the scenario, it is clear that the numerator fixed costs has increased and also a reduction in variable cost per unit implies an increase in contribution margin per unit since a lesser variable cost is being deducted from selling price.

The impact of both increases in fixed costs and contribution margin cannot be determined except if more details is provided which will give further guidance regarding which of the two increased at a higher rate compared to the other.
