Answer:
The sales mix is 1:2.
Model 101 Model 102
Selling Price 21 56
Variable Cost -14 -35
Contribution Per Unit 7 21
Multiply Sales Mix Ratio 1 2
Weighted Contribution 7 42
Now add the weighted Contribution to compute Contribution margin per composite unit which is 7+42=$49
Explanation:
I assumed that the cost and selling price here for Model 101 is $14 and $21 respectively. Similarly the cost and selling price of Model 102 is $35 and $56 respectively.
Remember that Contribution margin per composite unit means that we will earn 49 dollars(combined contribution of sales mix) if we sell the sale mix of Model 101 and 102 which is 1:2.
Answer:
A. 15 units
B. $130
Explanation:
In order to solve this, we need to use the profit maximization condition for monopoly.
MR = MC will give us the optimal quantity and price for the monopolist.
The consumer's demand for the product is:
Qd = 80 - 0.5P
Therefore, we have:
P = (80 / 0.5) - (Qd / 0.5)
P = 160 - 2Qd
Recall that, Total Revenue:
TR = P * Q
So, in this case TR = 160Q - 2Q^2
MR = d(TR) / dQ = 160 - 4Q
Now, MR = MC
160 - 4Q = 100
4Q = 160 - 100
4Q = 60
Q = 60 / 4
Q = 15 units.
Now, P =160 - 2Q
P = 160 - 2(15)
P = 160 - 30 = 130
The optimal number of units to be placed in a package will therefore be 15 units while the firm should charge $130 for this package.
Answer:

Answer:
January Overheads are <u>under-applied</u> by $2,000.
Explanation:
When,
Actual overheads > Applied overheads we say overheads are under-applied.
Actual overheads < Applied overheads we say overheads are over-applied.
Where,
Applied overheads = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual Activity
Therefore,
Applied overheads (January) = 120% × $40,000
= $48,000
Actual overheads (January) = $50,000.
Conclusion
It can be seen that from the above : Actual overheads : $50,000 > Applied overhead : $48,000, therefore overheads were under-applied.
Amount of under-applied overheads = $50,000 - $48,000
= $2,000
