Answer and explanation:
a.
the table below shows the impact of dropping beta product
Loss of Contribution Margin if Beta is Dropped (75,000*64) -$4,800,000
Traceable Fixed Manufacturing Overhead (123,000*33) $4,059,000
Incremental Contribution Margin from Additional Alpha Sales (15,000*72)
$1,080,000
Increase in Net Operating Income if Beta is Dropped $339,000
Notes:
Contribution Margin Per Unit (Beta) = 150 (Selling Price) - 15 (Direct Material) - 28 (Direct Labor) - 20 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 23 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $64 per unit
Contribution Margin Per Unit (Alpha) = 195 (Selling Price) - 40 (Direct Material) - 34 (Direct Labor) - 22 (Variable Manufacturing Overhead) - 27 (Variable Selling Expenses) = $72 per unit

Answer:
1. Causes: commercial production of many chemicals massive use of chemicals in food, agriculture, medicine, and industry
2. Consequences: increase in reproductive disorders contamination of soil, air, and water bioaccumulation and biomagnification of toxins in the food chain.
3. Solutions: consumer choice of low-toxicity products stricter regulations requiring that consumer products be thoroughly tested before being released to market.
Explanation:
This factors could lead to more toxic substances being released into the environment (causes), the consequences that result from toxic substances in the environment, and possible solutions to save environmental degradation.
Answer:
- 5,000 watches : $150,000 loss
- 20,000 watches: $60,000 (Loss)
- Break-even point = 30,000 units
- if the selling price rises to 32 = break even points descends to 10,588 units
- If the selling price rises to $32 but variable costs rises to $26 , the break even point goes back to 30,000units.
Explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:
Profit = Revenue -cost
Where the revenue is equal to the units sold (x) multiplied by the selling price,
R = 21 x
And cost is equal to the sum of the fixed and variable costs.
C = 15x + 1800
So:
P = 21x-(15x +180,000)
P = x ( 21-15)- 180,000
P = 5000(21-15)-180,000
P = 5000(6) -180,000
P= 30,000-180,000
P=-$150,000 (loss , since is negative )
P = 20,000(6) -180,000
P = 120,000-180,000
P=-$60,000 (Loss)
- To find the break even point:
R = C
21x = 15x + 180,000
21x-15x =180,000
6 x = 180,000
x = 180,000/6
x =30,000 units
- if the selling price rises to 32
32x = 15x + 180,000
32x-15x = 180,000
17x =180,000
x = 180,000/17
x = 10,588 units
It descends,
- If the selling price rises to $32 but variable costs rises to $26
32x = 26x+180,000
32x-26x = 180,000
6x = 180,000
x = 180,000/6
x =30,000
The break-even point comes back to 30,000 units.
