Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

X - number of units sold

Total cost for production = 1,500,000 + 1600X

Total cost for purchasing = 2000X

a. For 4000 units sold

Total cost for production = 1,500,000 + 1600 * 4000 = $7,900,000

Total cost for purchasing = 2000* 4000 = $8,000,000

In this case producing is cheaper. Therefore, it is better to produce

b. Y - break-even point

Then : 1,500,000 + 1600 * Y = 2000* Y

So 1,500,000 = 400 Y

Y = 3750

At №of units less than 3750 purchasing will be the better option

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The following is the cost of each unit:

Materials $ 36.00

Labor 14.00

Variable overhead 4.00

Fixed overhead ($1,890,000/105,000 units) 18.00

Total $ 72.00

Simpson Company has approached Andreasen with an offer to buy 8,000 thermostats for $60 each. The regular price is $100.

Simpson requires that each unit use its branding, which requires a more expensive label, resulting in an additional $2.00 per unit material cost. The Simpson order will also require a one-time rental of packaging equipment for $30,000.

Because this is a special offer and we have unused capacity, we will not have into account the fixed costs.

A)

Costs:

Materials $ 36.00

Labor 14.00

Variable overhead 4.00

Label= 2

Total variable cost= $56

Total cost= 56*8000 + 30000= $478,000

B) Sales= 8000*60= $480,000

Costs= 478,000

Gross profit= 2,000

The offer is profitable.

C) break-even point= fixed costs/ contributionmargin= 30000/ (60-56)= 7500 units
