Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of operating profit is shown below:-
Profit per unit = Purchase price from outside per unit + variable cost of production internally
= $15 - $7
= $8
Total increment in operating profit = Profit per unit × Total number of units
= $8 × 24,000
= $192,000
b. Minimum transfer price = Variable cost = $7 (because polk has overcapacity and there is no change in fixed cost and polk minimum has to recover its variable production cost)
c. Maximum transfer price = purchase cost from outside supplier = $15 (because if the internal transfer piece is more than $15 Bishop will lose so he prefers to buy from outside and the company as a whole will lose $192,000 in incremental operating profit
Answer:
B. is the price at which a firm's total revenues equal total costs
Explanation:
The short run in economics is a period of time in which one factor of production is fixed and others are varied. In the short run, the market is not fully in equilibrium. Break even is the point in which the total cost used in the course of production is equal to the total revenue earned from the products produced. In a break even scenario, there is no profit and there is no loss. At this point, firms are making normal rate of return on money invested and are able to settle all cost of production.
Answer:
6.50 Years
Explanation:
The computation of the payback period of the investment is shown below;
Total cash outflow is
= $15,000 + $8,000
= $23,000
Now the Cash Inflow in all 6 years is
= $1,000 + $2,000 + $2,500 + $4,000 + $5,000 + $6,000
= $20,500
Cash inflow in Year 7 is $5,000.
But Cumulative Cash flows from Year 1 to Year 7 is
= $20,500 + $5,000
= $26,500
This amount is more than Initial Investment i.e. $23,000.
So our Payback period is between 6 & 7 years i.e.
= 6 + ($23,000 - $20,500) ÷ 5000
= 6.50 Years
