Answer:

1. What is the contribution margin per hour of machine time for each type of team shirts?

<em>Homerun = </em> $ 50

<em>Goalpost</em> =  $30

2. What is the optimal mix of team shirts?

Homerun =  50,890

Goalpost  = 3,822

3. What is the total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix?

Total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix = $311,780

Explanation:

<em>1. Contribution margin per hour of machine time for each type of team shirts</em>

<em><u>Homerun</u></em>

Contribution margin per hour of machine = $5 / (6/60)

                                                                     =  $ 50

<em><u>Goalpost</u></em>

Contribution margin per hour of machine = $15 / (30/60)

                                                                     =  $30

<em>2. Optimal mix of team shirts</em>

Determine if <em>machine time</em> is a limiting factor

<u>Demanded Hours</u>

Homerun 0.1 × 50,890  = 5,089

Goalpost 0.5 × 50,890  = 25445

Total Hours Demanded = 30,534

<u>Available Hours</u>

Available hours =1,000 hour × 7 machines

                          =7,000 hours

Demanded Hours > Available hours

Therefore  <em>machine time</em> is a limiting factor

Determine Mix

<em>Rank the T-Shirts based on contribution margin per hour of machine time</em>

Position 1. Homerun = 5,089

Position 2. Goalpost  = 1,911 (takes the remaining hours)

Number of T-Shirts (mix)

Homerun = 5,089 / 0.1 =  50,890

Goalpost  = 1,911 / 0.5 =  3,822

<em>3. The total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix</em>

Homerun =  50,890 × $5 =254,450

Goalpost  =  3,822 × $15 = 57,330

Total                                 = 311,780

Answer following question with true or false and explain.A firm's profit margin is 5%, its debt/assets ratio is 56%, and its div
maria [59]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

As a company's sales level increases, its current assets will increase, e.g. cash, inventories, accounts receivables increase. generally, also the fixed assets increase, specially if the firm was previous producing at full capacity even before total sales increased. But as sales increase, not only do the company's assets increase, its current liabilities generally increase also, and its profits should increase. In this case, 60% of the company's profits are reinvested in the company, and the liabilities represent more than half of the total assets. Therefore, it is possible that the company needs external financing, but it is also possible that it doesn't. You cannot assume that the company will necessarily need external financing, because retained earnings  and the increase in current liabilities might be enough to finance the company's growth in sales.
