Answer:

Variable cost per unit = $12

The total variable cost = $3,600,000

The total contribution margin = $6,900,000

Explanation:

Number of units produced = 300,000

Selling cost = $35

Revenue = 300,000 × $35

               = $10,500,000

Fixed cost = $14 per unit

Total fixed cost = 300,000 × $14

                          = $4,200,000

Gross margin = $2,700,000

Gross margin is the difference between the Revenue earned and the total cost.

Total cost = $10,500,000 - $2,700,000

                 = $7,800,000

Total cost = Total Fixed cost + Total variable cost

Total variable cost = $7,800,000 - $4,200,000

                               = $3,600,000

Variable cost per unit is the ratio of the total variable cost to the number of units produced.

Variable cost per unit = $3,600,000/300000

                                    = $12

Total contribution margin is the difference between the total revenue and the total variable cost.

Total contribution margin = Total revenue - Total variable cost

                                           = $10,500,000 - $3,600,000

                                           = $6,900,000

You are the newly assigned project manager to a major IT upgrade project in your global company. How will you determine the risk
kap26 [50]

Answer:

I have to identify the risk factors in the project and then gauge the willingness of the company to take such risks.

Explanation:

Risk tolerance is the willingness of an organization or an individual to take certain risks. The risk tolerance level of a person or organization can be classified as either high or low. For a project manager who wants to determine the risk tolerances associated with his project, he has to first identify the risk factors, and then try to know the risk level and if indeed this level is acceptable within the organization's culture and standard.

The project manager would do well to plot a graph that would show the probability of a risky action happening or not. A risk tolerance line is now obtained from where the project manager can know if that risk is tolerable by organization standards. The extent of job security would also help in determining the amount of risk a manager can take. However, they are still expected to stay within the standards of the organization.
