Cherry Blossom Products Inc. produces and sells yoga-training products: how-to DVDs and a basic equipment set (blocks, strap, an

d small pillows). Last year, Cherry Blossom Products sold 18,000 DVDs and 4,500 equipment sets. Information on the two products is as follows:________
DVDs Equipment
Sets
Price $11 $15
Variable cost per unit 4 7
Total fixed cost is $84,000.
What is the equation to compute the break-even quantity of each product? The break-even on DVDs and the break-even on equipment sets?
I know the equation for break eve would be:
Fixed Costs/price - variable unit cost

Answer:

Cerry Blossom Product Inc

the break-even quantity =   Fixed cost / contribution margin

contribution margin on the other hand is  sales price minus variable cost

             compoutation of contribution margin

                                               DVD             Equipment

                                                 $                        $

Price                                        11                        15

variable cost                        <u>   4   </u>                 <u>     7</u>

                                            <u>    7     </u>              <u>      8</u>

unit sold                             18,000                 4,500

sales ratio                               4                        1

weigheted average contribution margin =  ($7*4)   + ($8*1)

                                                                               4 + 1

                                                                  =    $36/5

                                                                  =  $7.2

Overall break-even quantity =   $84,000/$7.2

                                              =   11,667

Break-even unit :

DVD   =   (4  * 11,667)/ 5

         =    9,334units

Equipment sets =  ( 1 * 11,667)/5

                          =   2,333 units

Explanation:

this question is on multi- products.

The overall break-even quantity of the firm will be computed first using the weighted average contribution margin of the firm and common fixed cost.

The break-even quantity will later be divided between the two product based on their  sales ratio.

Real per capita GDP in Singapore in 1960 was about $450, but it doubled to about $900.00 by 1977. a. What was the average annual
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

4.16%

Explanation:

to calculate Singapore's economic growth rate we can use the future value formula (we could also use the rule of 72 but it is not very exact):

future value = present value x (1 + r) ⁿ

  • future value = 900
  • present value = 450
  • n = 17
  • r = ?

900 = 450 (1 + r)¹⁷

(1 + r)¹⁷ = 900 / 450 = 2

1 + r = ¹⁷√2 = 1.0416

r = 1.0416 - 1 = 0.0416 or 4.16%

Answer:

C) $77,000

Explanation:

‘Cash Flow Statement’ is one of major financial statement that indicates the inflow and outflow of cash along with the reasons by categorizing each cash transaction in three activities i.e., operating, investing or financing activity. Non-cash transactions are not considered while preparing a cash flow statement.  

Operating Activities records the cash transactions involved in the operations of the business are recorded under ‘operating activities’ in the cash flow statement.  

Examples: Revenue earned, expenses incurred etc.  

There are two methods to prepare the cash flow statement. The only difference between both the methods is the way of presenting cash flow from operating activities.  

The two methods of presenting cash flow statement are:  

1. Direct method: Operating activities section under direct method reports the amount of cash received and paid by the company during the period.  

2. Indirect method: Operating activities section under indirect method reports the net income and later adjusts the transactions to convert it to cash basis of accounting.  

Cash flow statement has been attached below:

1. Albertville has budgeted fixed overhead of $67,500 based on budgeted production of 4,500 units. During July, 4,700 units were
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

A. (a) 3,900 (unfavorable).

B. (d) 3,000 (favorable).

C. (c) 10,525 (favorable).

Explanation:

Requirement A

We know,

Fixed overhead spending variance = (Budgeted fixed overhead - Actual fixed overhead)

Given,

Budgeted fixed overhead = $67,500

Actual fixed overhead = $71,400

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Fixed overhead spending variance = (Budgeted fixed overhead - Actual fixed overhead)

Or, Fixed overhead spending variance = ($67,500 - $71,400)

Or, Fixed overhead spending variance = -3,900

Therefore, Fixed overhead spending variance = 3,900 (unfavorable).

Since Budgeted fixed overhead is less than Actual fixed overhead, the situation is unfavorable.

So option A is the answer.

Requirement B

We know,

Fixed overhead volume variance = (Standard units - Budgeted units) × Standard fixed overhead rate.

Given,

Standard units = 4,700 units

Budgeted units = 4,500 units

Standard fixed overhead rate = $67,500 ÷ 4,500

Standard fixed overhead rate = $15

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Fixed overhead volume variance = (4,700 - 4,500) × $15

Or, Fixed overhead volume variance = 200 × $15

Or, Fixed overhead volume variance = 3,000

Therefore, Fixed overhead volume variance = 3,000 (favorable)

Since budgeted fixed volume is higher than Actual fixed volume, the situation is favorable.

So option D is the answer.

Requirement C

We know,

Direct labor rate variance = (Standard rate - Actual rate) × Actual hour

Given,

Standard rate = $22.50

Actual rate = $189,500 ÷ 8,890 = 21.3161

Actual hour = 8,890

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Direct labor rate variance = ($22.50 - 21.3161) × 8,890

Or, Direct labor rate variance = 1.1839 × 8,890

Or, Direct labor rate variance = 10,525

Therefore, Direct labor rate variance = 10,525 (favorable).

Since direct labor rate is higher than Actual labor rate, the situation is favorable.

So option C is the answer.
