Answer:

a. 450 tours per month

b. $850 per month

c. CM Ratio = 0.7

d.

1. Increase

2. Decrease

3. No Effect

Explanation:

The questions are:

a. Compute the average number of tours the company must conduct per month to break even

b. Compute the average sales revenue needed per month to produce a target average profit of $53,200

c. Calculate the contribution margin ratio. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

d. Determine whether the actions that follow will increase, decrease, or not affect the company's break-even point.

1. A decrease in tour prices.

2. The termination of a salaried clerk (no replacement is planned).

3. A decrease in the number of tours sold.

Solution:

a.

Selling Price = 190

VC = 57

Unit Contribution Margin = $133

Fixed Cost = 718,200 yearly, so monthly is:

718,200/12 = 59,850

Break even occurs when by selling tours they will cover monthly fixed cost of 59,850 [each tour will get 133], thus:

59,850/133 = 450 tours per month

b.

718,200 FC yearly, means, monthly:

718,200/12 = $59,850

Profit needed 53,200, so we would need to cover:

53200+59850 = $113,050

Each tour gives Unit CM to be $133, so we would need revenue of:

Rev = 113,050/133 = $850

c.

Contribution margin ratio is the quotient of difference in sales and var expenses to sales.

So,

CM Ratio = (Sales - Var Exp) / Sales

CM Ratio = (190 - 57) / 190 = 0.7

d.

1.

If the tour prices, decrease, there will be less revenue coming in so the break even point would go higher.

So, break even point will increase

2.

If a salaried clerk is terminated, it will decrease the salary costs of the company. This is decrease the fixed costs of the company (annual wages and salaries), thus it will be easier to cover the new, lower, fixed costs. Thus, the break even point will decrease

3.

A decrease in number of tours sold would proportionally change the variables and other costs and revenues associated. If you look at the calculation above, you will see that "number of tours" won't affect the Break Even Point. Thus, this action will create "no effect".

Assume the current U.S. dollar-yen spot rate is 90 ¥/$. Further, the current nominal 180-day rate of return in Japan is 1% (annu

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Forward excahnge rate/spot exchange rate = (1+rh)/(1+rf)

rh - periodic interest rate in the home currency

rf - periodic interest rate in the foreign currency

Forward/90 = [1+1%*180/360]/[1+2%*180/360]

Forward = 1.005/1.01 * 90 = 89.55

Forward rate is 89.55 yen/$

Kubin company’s relevant range of production is 20,000 to 23,000 units. when it produces and sells 21,500 units, its average cos

Afina-wow [57]

The cost per unit is derived from the variable costs and fixed costs incurred by a production process, divided by the number of units produced. Hypothetically lets say variable costs for Kubin company's production is $50,000 and their fixed costs are $25,000. $50,000 variable costs + $25,000 fixed costs / 21,500 units = $3.49/unit.
