Answer:

The selling price per case is $75

Explanation:

Sue Bee Honey

Profit is a function of how well a company is able to absorb/cover its costs of doing business.

Thus, to derive Profit we will consider this format;

Sales = xx

Less Variable costs = x

Contribution = xx

Less Fixed Costs = x

gross Profit = xx

Less selling & Admin expense x

Profit = x

Assume sales which is unknown is a

Sales = a

Less Variable costs = 40 x 800,000 = $32,000,000...,.(b)

Contribution = a minus b ..... (C)

Less Fixed Costs = $5,000,000....(d)

gross Profit = c - d.....….(e)

Less fixed selling & Admin expense = $3,000,000.......(f)

Less Variable selling expense = 25% x (a)...…g

Profit = $5,000,000

Stretching this out in a mathematical format.

5,000,000 + 3,000,000 + 5,000,000 + 32,000,000 = a - 25% of a = 0.75a

$45,000,000 = 0.75a

a = Sales = 45,000,000/0.75 = $60,000,000

To derive selling Price:

Divide sales by sales units = $60,000,000 / 800,000 = $75 per unit

Answer:

$75 per case

Explanation:

Required: Selling Price per case

Sales – Variable cost – Fixed cost = Target desired profit

Sales = 800000 case x Selling Price (SP)

Variable cost = (800000 case x $40) + (800000 x SP x 25%)

Putting into equation:

Sales – Variable cost – Fixed cost = Target desired profit

(800000 x SP) – [(800000 x 40) + (800000 x SP x 25%)] - $8000000 = $ 5000000

>800000SP – (32000000 + 200000SP) – 8000000 = 5000000

>800000SP – 32000000 – 200000SP – 8000000 = 5000000

>800000SP – 200000SP = 5000000 + 8000000 + 32000000

>600000SP = 45000000

>SP = 45000000 / 600000

>SP = $ 75

Radovilsky Manufacturing Company, in Hayward, California, makes flashing lights for toys. The company operates its production fa
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Given,

Annual demand, D = 12500,

Setting up cost, S = $ 49,

Production rate per year, P =  production facility × capability of production = 300 × 105 = 31500,

Holding cost per year, H = $ 0.15,

Hence,

(i) Optimal size of the production run,

Q = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H(1-\frac{D}{P})}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 12500\times 49}{0.15(1-\frac{12500}{31500})}}=3679.60238126\approx 3680

(ii) Average holding cost per year,

=\frac{QH}{2}(1-\frac{D}{P})

=\frac{3680\times 0.15}{2}(1-\frac{12500}{31500})

=166.476190476

\approx \$ 166.48

(iii) Average setup cost per year,

=\frac{D}{Q}\times S

=\frac{12500}{3680}\times 49

=166.44021739

\approx \$ 166.44

(iv) Total cost per year = average setup cost per year + average holding cost per year + cost to purchase 12500 lights

= 166.44 + 166.48 + 12500(0.95)

= $ 12207.92

Bob is evaluating a bond issue to determine the right price for the bond. In his evaluation, he gathers the following informatio
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The price of the bond is $1000. Thus, option a is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The price of a bond is calculated using the present value of the interest payments made by the bond, which is in the form of an annuity, plus the present value of the face value of the bond. The present value is calculated by discounting the annuity of interest and the face value by the YTM or yield to maturity. In case YTM is not provided, we assume that it is same as or equal to the coupon rate paid by the bond.

The formula for the price of the bond is attached.

Bond Price = 25 * [(1 - (1+0.025)^-8) / 0.025]  +  1000 / (1+0.025)^8

Bond Price = $1000

Which of the following would be the most desirable wording to use on a résumé? Created a first-place science fair project. I won
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The answer is created a first-place science fair project.

Explanation:

When writing a resume, we usually refrain from using subjects when explaining our past work experiences and achievements. Generally, we focus on using verbs in past tense to explain what we have managed to do in these contexts. More specifically, it is preferred to use action verbs since our resume is supposed to give an explanation on what we have done in the past.
