Quadcopters plans to sell a standard quadcopter (toy drone) for $ 55 and a deluxe quadcopter for $ 85. Funtime purchases the st

Harman [31]

Answer:

For break-even, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 238

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 238 = 476

to earn $7,700, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 392

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 392 = 784

Explanation:

Given:

Selling cost of standard quadcopter = $55

Selling cost of deluxe quadcopter = $85

Purchasing cost of standard quadcopter = $45

Purchasing cost of deluxe quadcopter = $65

monthly fixed expenses = $ 11,900

Now,

let the number standard quadcopter sold be 'x'

thus, according to the question

the number deluxe quadcopter sold will be = 2x

also,

at break-even

total cost = total revenue

or

Total fixed cost + Total purchasing cost = Total revenue

or

$11,900 + ($45x + $65 × 2x) = $55x + $85 × 2x

or

$11,900 + $45x + $130x = $55x + $170x

or

$11,900 + $175x = $225x

or

$225x - $175x = $11,900

or

$50x = $11,900

or

x = 238

Hence,

For break-even, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 238

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 238 = 476

To earn $7,700

Earning = Total Revenue - Total cost

$7,700 = ( $55x + $85 × 2x ) - [$11,900 + ($45x + $65 × 2x)]

$7,700 = $225x - $11,900 - $175x

or

$7,700 + $11,900 = $50x

or

$50x = $19,600

or

x = 392

Therefore,

to earn $7,700, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 392

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 392 = 784

Assume that Speedboat Company has beginning finished goods inventory of $10,000; ending finished goods inventory of $150,000; go

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$60,000

Explanation:

The movement in finished goods balance between the beginning and end of a period is due to the cost of goods sold and goods manufactured. This may be expressed mathematically as;

Opening balance + manufactured goods - cost of goods sold - other write-offs = closing balance.

where there are no other write-offs,

$10,000 + $200,000 - cost of goods sold = $150,000

Cost of goods sold = $10,000 + $200,000 - $150,000

= $60,000
