Answer:

Peter Billington Stereo, Inc.

A.  Based on the analysis of the volume after rounding the numbers to the nearest number, Dallas is best below and Detroit is best above 70,000 radios.

B.  With Dallas's fixed costs increased by 10%, Dallas is best below and Detroit is best above 56,000 radios.

Explanation:

Identify total costs at various volumes as follows:

Total costs, TC = Variable Cost, VC + Fixed Cost, FC

At 14,000 units:

a) Dallas' TC = VC = $28 x 14,000 + $560,000 = $952,000

b) Dallas' TC with 10% increase in FC = $28 x 14,000 + $616,000 = $1,008,000

c) Detroit's TC = $24 x 14,000 + $840,000 = $1,176,000

At 56,000 units:

a) Dallas' TC = $28 x 56,000 + $560,000 = $2,128,000

b) Dallas' TC with 10% increase in FC = $28 x 56,000 + $616,000 = $2,184,000

c) Detroit's TC = $24 x 56,000 + $840,000 = $2,184,000

At 67,200 units:

a) Dallas' TC = $28 x 67,200 + $560,000 = $2,441,600

b) Dallas' TC with 10% increase in FC = $28 x 67,200 + $616,000 = $2,497,600

c) Detroit's TC = $24 x 67,200 + $840,000 = $2,452,800

At 70,000 units:

a) Dallas' TC = $28 x 70,000 + $560,000 = $2,520,000

b) Dallas' TC with 10% increase in FC = $28 x 70,000 + $616,000 = $2,576,000

c) Detroit's TC = $24 x 70,000 + $840,000 = $2,520,000

At 153,993 units:

a)Dallas' TC = $28 x 153,993 + $560,000 = $4,871,804

b) Dallas' TC with 10% increase in FC = $28 x 153,933 + $616,000 = $4,927,804

c) Detroit's TC = $24 x 53,993 + $840,000 = $4,535,832

A steel company manufactures heavy-duty brackets for the shelving industry. The company has budgeted for the production and sale
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Contribution margin per unit = $11.90

Explanation:

Given:

Total unit sale = 1,000,000

Unit selling price of a bracket = $22.50

Direct material required = 4 pounds per unit  

Direct labor required = 0.15 hours per unit

Cost of material per pound = $1.75

Direct labor cost per hour = $9.00

Total variable selling cost = $2,250,000

Find:

Contribution margin per unit = ?

Computation:

Direct material per unit = 4 pounds per unit × $1.75

Direct material per unit = $7

Direct labor per unit = 0.15 hours per unit × $9.00

Direct labor per unit = $1.35

Variable selling cost per unit = Total variable selling cost / Total unit sale

Variable selling cost per unit = $2,250,000 / 1,000,000

Variable selling cost per unit = $2.25

Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit - [Direct material per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable selling cost per unit]

Contribution margin per unit = $22.50 - [$7 - $1.35 - $2.25]

Contribution margin per unit = $22.50 - [$10.6]

Contribution margin per unit = $11.90

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

$258,000

Data given in the question

Salary paid on annual basis to onsite supervisor = $94,000

Salary paid on annual basis to one salaried estimator = $52,000

Two administrative assistant salaries $56,000 and $40,000

Salary of the president = $162,000

So, by considering the above information, the common fixed expense is

= $258,000
