Answer:

D) $27.3 per unit

Explanation:

The contribution margin per unit is Selling price - Variable cost. This shows how much each unit is contributing towards fixed costs.

To calculate CM per unit, we frist need to calculate the total of variable cost that relate to our 13000 units of products sold.

17000 are the units produced

13000 are the units sold

<u>Total Variable costs</u>

Direct material = 153000 * 13/17 = 117000

Direct labor = 110500 * 13/17 = 84500

Variable manufacturing OH = 204000 * 13/17 = 156000

Variable selling & admin OH = 88400 * 13/17 = 67600

Total Variable Cost = 117000 + 84500 + 156000 + 67600 = 425100

Total Contribution margin (CM) = 780000 - 425100 = 345900

CM per unit = 345900 / 13000 = $27.3 / unit

Answer:

D. $27.30.

Explanation:

Direct materials $153,000

Direct labor $110,500

Variable manufacturing overhead $204,000

variable selling and administrative expenses were $88,400

Total variable cost: 555,900

We divide this by the 17,000 manufactured unit to know the unit variable cost. variable cost $32.7

then we solve for sales price per unit

$780,000 total revenue / 13,000 units sold = $60

Last we subtract the variable cost to get the contribution per unit

$60 sales revenue - $32.7 variable cost = $27.30

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

budgeted  manufacturing overhead=$2871

Explanation:

Direct labour hours= budgeted production × standard hours per unit

                            = 870× 1/4 hour=217.5  hours

Direct labour cost =  217.5 ×    $12 =$2610

Manufacturing overhead = Overhead absorption rate × direct labour cost

                                       = 110%×2610 =2,871

Budgeted  manufacturing overhead=$2871

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Given that Payments are made as follows: 70% in the month of purchase and 30% in the month after purchase, therefore, firstly we need to differentiate the total amount of purchases of each month into 70% and 30%. 70% of the purchases will be paid in current month and balance 30% of the purchases will be ending accounts payable for that month and paid in next month. This is shown as follows:

Particulars                                         April         May          June

Current month purchases  70% $67,200  $88,200    $95,200

Ending accounts payable   30%   $28,800   $37,800    $40,800

Total purchases                             $96,000  $126,000  $136,000

The schedule of budgeted cash payments for the month of April May and June are shown as follows:-

                            Schedule of Cash Payments    

                               For April, May, and June

                                                                      April           May         June

Cash payments for:

Current month purchases                          $67,200   $88,200   $95,200  

Prior month purchases                               $38,000   $28,800   $37,800

Budgeted cash payments for materials  $105,200 $117,000  $133,000
