Answer:

1. Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= $425,000

2. Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $200,000

3. Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $100,000

Explanation:

1. Computation of the companywide break-even point in dollar sales

First step is to find the Contribution margin ratio

Using this formula

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sales

Contribution margin ratio:

Total company: ($240,000/$600,000)=0.4

North : ($120,000/$400,000)=0.4

South : ($120,000/$200,000)=0.6

Now let compute the Company wide break-even point in dollar sales using this formula

Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= ($120,000 + $50,000) / 0.4

Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= $425,000

2. Computation for the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region using this formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for North region = Traceable fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $60,000 / 0.3

Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $200,000

3. . Computation for the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.

Using this formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = Traceable fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $60,000 / 0.6

Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $100,000

1. Analysis How many burritos will the producer supply at the price of $1? In your opinion, what is the reason for that quantity
amm1812

The number of burritos that will be supplied depends on the costs the supplier incurs.

You did not include any charts that can be used to answer this specific question so I will give a general answer.

When a supplier is deciding the price at which to supply a good, they look at:

  • Their costs both fixed and variable
  • The price others are charging
  • The demand for the good

The most important factor is their costs. If in this case, it costs more than $1 to produce a burrito, they will not supply burritos. If their costs are less than a dollar, the number of burritos supplied will then depend on other factors but they will supply some.

In conclusion, if the cost to make the burrito is less than $1, the supplier will supply no burritos but if the cost is less, they will supply based on other factors.

Wallen Corporation is considering eliminating a department that has an annual contribution margin of $80,000 and $160,000 in ann
krok68 [10]

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

We need to find the segment margin of the deparment, which is equal to annual contribution margin minus avoidable fixed costs:

Wallen Corporation

Annual contribution margin            $80,000

Annual fixed costs                           $160,000

Unavoidable fixed costs                 $90,000

Avoidable fixed costs                     $70,000

Segment Margin  = Annual contribution margin - avoidable fixed costs

                             = $80,000 - $70,000

                             = $10,000

Therefore, if the company eliminated this department, it would have a financial advantage of $10,000, equivalent to the deparment's current segment margin.
