Answer:
(a) 242,500 units
(b) 267,500 units
Explanation:
(a) Break-even point in sales units:
= Fixed costs ÷ (Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit)
= $4,850,000 ÷ ($80 - $60)
= 242,500 units
(b) Break even point in sales units if the company desires a target profit of $500,000:
= (Fixed cost + Target profit) ÷ (Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit)
= ($4,850,000 + $500,000) ÷ ($80 - $60)
= $5,350,000 ÷ $20
= 267,500 units

Answer:
$444.42
Explanation:
For computing the saving amount, first need to calculate the economic order quantity, total cost etc
The economic order quantity is

where,
Annual demand is
= 774 packaging crates × 12 months
= 9,932 crates
And, the carrying cost is
= $12 × 34%
= $4.08

= 363.37 crates
Now the total cost is
= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost
= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit
= 9,288 ÷ 363 × $29 + 363 ÷ 2 × $4.08
= $742.02 + $740.52
= $1,482.54
Now the total cost in case of 774 packing crates is
= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost
= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit
= 9,288 ÷ 774 × $29 + 774 ÷ 2 × $4.08
= $348 + $1,578.96
= $1,926.96
So, the annual saving cost is
= $1,926.96 - $1,482.54
= $444.42
