Answer:
Net operating income= 565,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Krazy Kayaks sells its entry-level kayaks for $750 each. Its variable cost is $500 per kayak. Fixed costs are $25,000 per month for volumes up to 1,100 kayaks. Above 1,100 kayaks, monthly fixed costs are $60,000.
Sales= 2,500*750= 1,875,000
COGS= (500*2,500)= (1,250,000)
Gross profit= 625,000
Fixed costs= (60,000)
Net operating income= 565,000
Answer:
We should discontinue Product B
Explanation:
We should check if Product B generates a contribution or not:
We subtract from the sales revenues the variable cost:
revenue 39,500
variable cost of goods sold (25,500)
variable selling expenses <u> (16,500) </u>
Contribution (2,500)
<em>As the contribution is negative, we should discontinue </em>Product B as is less expensevely to stop production than continue.
Answer:
Gross profit= $54,700
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchases $37,000
Merchandise inventory, September 1 6,100
Merchandise inventory, September 30 6,800
Sales 91,000
<u>First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold:</u>
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory
COGS= 6,100 + 37,000 - 6,800
COGS= $36,300
<u>Now, the gross profit:</u>
Gross profit= sales - COGS
Gross profit= 91,000 - 36,300
Gross profit= $54,700
