Answer: Capital investment in new machinery
Capital investment in new machinery enables a company to produce more over a given period of time as compared to the old machine.
It also helps the company to take advantage of new orders in the markets and helps it increase its share in catering to the demand for its products
To solve this problem, we
use the formula in calculating for the total variable cost (COGS):
Revenue - COGS - SG&A
= Pretax profits
where SG & A is calculated
as:
SG & A = (Contribution - Prextax income)
<span>SG & A = ($320,000 - $117,000)
SG & A= $275,000 </span>
Calculating for revenue
using the margin ratio:
Contribution margin/Revenue = Contribution Margin Ratio
Revenue = Contribution Margin/Contribution Margin Ratio
Revenue = $320,000/.20
Revenue = $1.6m
Going back to the 1st formula:
Revenue - COGS - SG&A = Pretax profits
1.6m - COGS - 275k = 117k
COGS = $1.6m - $117k - $275k
<span>COGS = $1.208 million</span>
Hello!
The price rises when the quality rises, because the quality of the product depends on the quality of the feedstock.
