Nelson Company's Radio Division currently is purchasing transistors from Charlotte Co. for $3.50 each. The total number of trans

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The range of possible transfer is $ 3.25 to $ 3.50

Explanation:

Data provided:

The purchasing cost of the transistor = $ 3.50

The total number of transistors needed = 8,000

The production cost of the transistor = $ 4.00

The included variable cost = $ 3.25

The included fixed cost = $ 0.75

Now,

the fixed cost cannot be altered, thus it will be there

hence,

the variable cost will be the factor that will evaluate the decision i.e $ 3.25

therefore, the range of possible transfer is $ 3.25 to $ 3.50

Sunland Company reported the following information for the current year: Sales (64000 units) $1280000, direct materials and dire

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

45%

Explanation:

Given the following :

Sales unit = 64000

Sales revenue = $1,280,000

Direct materials and directly labor = $640,000

Other variable cost = $64,000

Fixed cost = $360,000

Contribution margin ratio:

(Sales revenue - variable expenses) / sales revenue

Total variable expenses = (Direct materials and directly labor + other variable expenses)

Total variable expenses = (640000 + 64000) = $704,000

Contribution margin ratio :

$(1,280,000 - 704,000) / $1,280,000

$576,000 / $1,280,000

= 0.45

0.45 * 100 = 45%
