Answer:
$270,000
Explanation:
Data provided
Quantity of products = $280,000
Total fixed costs = $800,000
Unit sales price = $16
Variable cost = $12
The computation of units must be sold is shown below:-
Contribution per unit = $16 - $12
= $4 per unit
Units must be sold = (Quantity of products + Total fixed costs) ÷ Contribution per unit
= ($280,000 + $800,000) ÷ $4
= $1,080,000 ÷ $4
= $270,000
Answer:
d. Constraint
Explanation:
The dependent variable variations are explained as an effect, due to variations in causal independent variables. The dependent variable might be in form of an objective function, as a function of independent variables, which needs to be maximised or minimised. Constraint is a limitation to the objective function maximisation / minimisation.
Given case : Introducing product in new markets (through telemarketers) & conducting research about success of sales efforts - has 'Sales' as the main objective function to be maximised, dependent on independent variable like Telemarketers . Constraint could be any restriction in form of budget , time (six months time mentioned)
Answer:
$2,500,000
Explanation:
Break Point = Level of debt / Weight of debt
(100%-40%)
=60%
Hence:
= 1,500,000 / 60%
= $2,500,000
Therefore the debt breakpoint in the MCC schedule will be $2,500,000
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": Master production schedule.
Explanation:
A Master Production Schedule (MPS) is a detailed plan that outlines what products and in which quantities products should be manufactured over a certain period. This schedule contrasts the Aggregate Production Plan (APP) which has a broader scope in business production not only for a product but for a product family usually in large plants.
<em>MPS planning horizon is shorter than the APP but easier to understand assuming the demand for the product is constant. The MPS lead time to produce a good tends to be longer than the APP.</em>
Answer:
Head Office Cost Allocations
Explanation:
Usually Projects have Head Office costs that are allocated to them.
Head office costs allocated to projects will be the same for the choices of alternatives (replacing or not replacing the machine).
The Head office costs are a costs that is incurred at Head office as well.
Thus, Head Office Costs allocations are <em>irrelevant</em> and must not be included in the analysis.
