Answer

(a) 3858 Units

(b) 4372 Units

Explanation

SP = Selling price per unit = $150 per unit

VC = Variable cost per unit = $80 per  unit

TFC = Total Fixed Cost = $270,000

(a) Break-Even Point (Units) = Fixed Costs ÷ (Revenue per Unit – Variable Cost per Unit)

= $270,000 ÷ ( $150 per unit - $80 per  unit )

= 3857.14 ≅ 3858 Units

(b)

x = Number of units

TR = Total Revenue = $150x

TC = Total Costs = Total Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost

TC = $270,000 + $80x

Target Profit = $36,000

Total profit = Total Revenue - Total Costs

36000 = 150x - ( 270000 + 80x)

306000 = 70x

x = 4371.42 ≅ 4372 Units

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Three things:

-Under processing before canning

-Spoilage before canning

-entrance of water through can seams during cooling

Explanation:

The preservation process is aimed at reducing the rate of spoilage of food products over time.

When adequately processed a time can be given during which the food product is still not spoilt. For example 1 year from date of canning. After this period there is a high possibility of food spoilage.

If a can of peas was bought from a grocery and it is spoilt it is either the peas were not well processed, there was spoilage before commercial canning, or water entered when cooling during canning

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The amount of revenue to be recognized at 31st March is $383500

Explanation:

The revenue amount that should be recognized in the income statement as at March 31,2020 is the  sales price of $365000 plus three months of installation fee since installation is expected to last six months and three months have passed since installation began.

Hence, the amount of revenue as at 31st March is calculated thus:

Sales price                                                                     $365000

Installation fee for 3 months(3/6*$37000)                   <u>$18500</u>

Total revenue as at 31st March                                    $ 383,500

The rationale behind this is that revenue is only recognized when the seller has discharged his or her obligation under the contract not when cash is received and it is very clear that installation has been undertaken for 3 out of 6 months
