Answer:

A.50,000 units

B.62,500 units

C.Process A with a profit of $700,000 to maximize profit

Step-by-step explanation:

A.Calculation for the breakeven volume for Process A

Using this formula

Breakeven volume for Process A= Fixed cost/(Sales per units-Variable cost per units)

Let plug in the formula

Breakeven volume for Process A=500,000/(35-25)

Breakeven volume for Process A=500,000/10

Breakeven volume for Process A=50,000 units

B.Calculation for the breakeven volume for Process B

Using this formula

Breakeven volume for Process B= Fixed cost/(Sales per units-Variable cost per units)

Let plug in the formula

Breakeven volume for Process B=750,000/(35-23)

Breakeven volume for Process B=750,000/12

Breakeven volume for Process B=62,500 units

C. Calculation for what the company should do if the total demand (volume) is 120,000 units

Using this formula

Profit=(Total demand*(Sales per units-Variable cost per units for Process A)- Process A fixed cost

Let plug in the formula

Profit =120,000*($35-$25)-$500,000

Profit=120,000*10-$500,000

Profit=1,200,000-$500,000

Profit= $700,000

Therefore If total demand (volume) is 120,000 units, then the company should select Process A with a profit of $700,000 to maximize profit.

Another for solving for x but much harder
gulaghasi [49]
Set up the equation so m<HCB + m<DCH = m<DCB

2x + 100 + 60 = x + 170
2x+ 160 = x +170
-x             -x
x + 160 = 170
   - 160     -160
x = 10
