The question is reproduced in the table below for clarity
Oven Contribution
Hours Required Margin Per Unit
Muffins 0.2 $4
Coffee Cakes 0.3 $5
Answer:
Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00
Explanation:
<em>When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.</em>
Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:
Step 1
<em>Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product</em>
cont/hr ranking
Muffin $4/0.2 hour = 20 <em> 1st</em>
Coffee cakes $5/0.3 hour= 16.67 2nd
<em>Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it</em>
Step 2
<em>Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin</em>
Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000
= $ 60,000.00

Explanation:
From the above question, Apple's iPod carries a two-year warranty against manufacturer's defects.
warranty costs are expected to be approximately 3% of sales.
Total sales are $30.7 million, and actual warranty expenditures are $270,000.
Total warranty cost = $30.7 million x 3% = $921,000
During the 1st year only $270,000 of warranty expenses was made.
Therefore the company will carry as liability at the end of the year a total of $921,000 - $270,000 = $651,000
Answer:
a) should install the solar cells
alternative 1, solar cells
initial investment $18,000
annual expenses $2,400 (5 years)
NPV = $27,097.89
AW = (10% x $27,097.89) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁵] = $7,148.36
alternative 2, power line
initial investment $27,500
annual expenses $1,000 (5 years)
NPV = $31,290.79
AW = (10% x $31,290.79) / [1 - (1 + 10%)⁻⁵] = $8,254.43
b) $23,307.10
