Answer:
It is profitable to accept the special offer.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The shopping mall would like to purchase 200 extra-large white trees. Apex Company has the excess capacity to handle this special order. The shopping mall has offered to pay $120 for each tree.
Variable costs:
Direct materials $50.00
Direct labor (variable) $3.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.00
Additional variable cost= $6
This special order would require an investment of $10,000 for the molds required for the extra-large trees.
Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not have into account the fixed costs (except the incremental fixed cost).
Unitary variable cost= 50 + 3.5 + 1 + 6= $60.5
Fixed costs= 10,000
Incremental income= (200*120) - (200*60.5) - 10,000= $1,900
It is profitable to accept the special offer.
4,000,000 units should be sold a company
<u>Explanation:</u>
<u>Calculating the sales in units:</u>
It has been given that the toal market demand is $20 million, average quantity purchased by buyer per year is 2 units, price average is $50, and the desired share of the market is 10%.
Where:
Q = Total market demand,
N = number of buyers in the market, q = average quantity purchased by the buyer per year,
P = price of average unit
= $2,000,000,000
Market share = 
= 4,000,000 units
Hence, the company should sell 4 million units to achieve 10 percent market share.
