Sloan Transmissions, Inc., has the following estimates for its new gear assembly project: price = $2,900 per unit; variable cost
Sloan [31]

Answer:

in its best case scenario:

selling price = $2,900 + 15% = $3,335 per unit

variable costs = $580 - 15% = $493 per unit

fixed costs = $5.2 million - 15% = $4.42 million

quantity = 88,000 + 15%  = 101,200 units

estimated profits in best case scenario = $337,502,000 - $49,891,600 - $4,420,000 = $283,190,400

in its worst case scenario:

selling price = $2,900 - 15% = $2,465 per unit

variable costs = $580 + 15% = $667 per unit

fixed costs = $5.2 million + 15% = $5.98 million

quantity = 88,000 - 15%  = 74,800 units

estimated profits in best case scenario = $184,382,000 - $49,891,600 - $5,980,000 = $128,510,400

The firm is still profitable because the contribution margin is huge even in the worst case scenario. In he best case scenario the break even point is 1,556 units, while the break even point in the worst case scenario is 3,326 units. It's a very low break even point considering total expected sales.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

Therefore, the entry to record the sale of the truck involves B. Debit Loss $5,000.

Explanation:

First determine the Accumulated depreciation on the Truck

Depreciation Expense = Cost - Residual Value / Estimated Useful years

                                     = ($140,000 - $20,000) / 6

2018 : $20,000

2019 : $20,000

Total : $40,000

Then Process the Sales journal to determine the profit or loss on sale of Truck as follows :

Accumulated Depreciation $40,000 (debit)

Cash $95,000 (debit)

Profit and Loss $5,000(debit)

Cost : Truck $140,000 (credit)

Lawn Chopper Company sells two types of lawn mowers. The first one is a basic lawn mower, which has variable costs of $50 and se
Temka [501]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Breakven even point is computed as

= Fixed costs / ( Sales price per unit - Variable costs per unit)

For basic lawn mower, Given that;

Fixed cost = $5,000,000

Sales price per unit = $150

Variable costs per unit = $50

BEP = $500,000 / ($150 - $50)

BEP = $500,000 / $100

BEP = 5,000 units

For Riding tractor, given that;

Fixed costs = $500,000

Sales price per unit = $1,500

Variable cost per unit = $500

BEP = $500,000 / ($1,500 - $500)

BEP = $500,000 / $1,000

BEP = 500 units

It therefore means that 5,000 units of basic Lawn mower must be sold to break even, while 500 units of riding tractor must be sold to break even.
