Sales total 50,000 units a year. The statues are finished either rough or polished, with an average demand of 60% rough and 40%

polished. Iron ingots, the direct material, costs $5 per pound. Processing costs are $300 to convert 30 pounds into 60 statues. Rough statues are sold for $17 each, and polished statues can be sold for $19 or engraved for an additional cost of $5. Polished statues can then be sold for $23.50. How much would the profits/unit increase by if the Company should engrave the statues?

Answer:

It is more profitable to not engrave the statues.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= 50,000 units

Polished= 40% of sales

Direct material= $5 per pound

Processing= $300 to convert 30 pounds in 60 statues

Polish= $19 per unit

Engraved= $5 per unit

New selling price= $23,5

We need to determine whether it is more convenient to sell the units engraved or not.

First, we need to calculate the unitary cost of a polished unit.

The total cost of 60 units= 5*30 + 300= $450

Unitary cost (normal)= 450/60= $7.5

Unitary cost (engraved)= 7.5+5= $12.5

Total sales= 50,000*0.4= 20,000 units

Now, we can determine the total contribution margin of both options:

Sell as-is:

Total contribution margin= 20,000*(19-7.5)= $230,000

Engrave:

Total contribtuion margin= 20,000*(23.5 - 12.5)= $220,000

<u>It is more profitable to not engrave the statues.</u>

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The answer is: Alais will prevail because of material breach of the contract

Explanation:

Material breach in contract law refers to one party failing to perform under the contract significantly enough so that the aggrieved party has the right to sue for breach of contract.

In this case when Rutherford failed to perform, Alais sustained enough "damage" that enables her to sue Rutherford. She probably was no longer able to finish her job in time.
