A company is evaluating which of two alternatives should be used to produce a product that will sell for $35 per unit. The follo

wing cost information describes the two alternatives.
Process A Process B
Fixed Cost $500,000 $750,000
Variable Cost per Unit $25 $23

Requirement:;
i) Calculate the breakeven volume for Process A. (show calculation to receive credit)

ii) Calculate the breakeven volume for Process B. (show calculation to receive credit)

III) Directions: Show calculation below and Circle the letter of the correct answer.
If total demand (volume) is 120,000 units, then the company should
select Process A with a profit of $940,000 to maximize profit
select Process B with a profit of $450,000 to maximize profit
select Process A with a profit of $700,000 to maximize profit

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.

Solve simultaneous equation <br> X-2y=1<br> 2x-y=2
Step2247 [10]

Answer: x=1,y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

X-2y=1.....equation 1

2x-y=2.....equation 2

X=1+2y.......equation 3

Substitute equation 3into 2

2(1+2y)-y=2

2+4y-y=2

2+3y=2

3y=2-2

3y=0

Y=0/3

Y=0

Substitute for y=0 in equation 1

X-2y=1

X-2(0)=1

X-0=1

X=1

X=1 & Y=0

The second of 2 numbers is 5 more than twice the first. Their sum is 29. Find the numbers. (With steps)
hodyreva [135]
So the equation is x + 2x + 5= 29
Here are the steps            -5    -5
                               -----------------------
                                        3x   = 24
      Divide both sides by 3 so you get
                                          x = 8
Then look back at the question, the second number has to be twice that number plus 5
                 So the 1st number is 8 The second # is 2(8)+5= 21

Scrat [10]
Aiko jump roped for 20 minutes before stopping at 8:05. Just count 20 minutes back in order to see when she started.

8:05 - 20 minutes = 7:45
