We can find the increase in operating income for each $ 1,000 increase in revenue per month by finding the contribution margin ratio and the multiplying it with the increase operating income of $ 1,000 each.

The formula to find the contribution margin ratio is :-

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin per unit / Selling price per unit

= 12 / 20 = 60%

The increase in operating income = Contribution margin ratio * Revenue

= 60 % * 1,000

= $ 600

The calculations are shown below :-

Selling price per unit = $ 20

Variable cost per unit = $ 8

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $ 20 - $ 8 = $ 12

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Expected number of orders=31.6 orders per year

Explanation:

<em>The expected number of orders would be the Annual demand divided by the economic order quantity(EOQ).</em>

<em>The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is the order quantity that minimizes the balance of holding cost and ordering cost. At the EOQ, the holding cost is exactly the same as the ordering cost.</em>

It is calculated as follows:

EOQ = (2× Co D)/Ch)^(1/2)

Co- ordering cost Ch - holding cost, D- annual demand

EOQ = (2× 10 × 100000/2)^(1/2)= 3162.27 units

Number of orders = Annual Demand/EOQ

                              = 100,000/3,162.27= 31.62 orders

Expected number of orders=31.6 orders per year

The actual inventory holding cost incurred by an item depends on how long it actually spends in inventory.
svlad2 [7]
True. <span>The actual inventory holding cost incurred by an item depends on how long it actually spends in inventory. Holding costs are costs that happen when the inventory stays put and does not sell. The costs are calculated into the inventory costs along side of ordering and shortage costs. Holding costs can include the goods being damaged or spoiling due to the length of being held. Since they can be held for 5 days or 100 days (example) the total cost that is held depends on the length the items were held for. </span>
