Month Maintenance Machine Health Number of Shipping Units

Business
1 answer:
8_murik_8 [283]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1. Variable cost = Shipping costs

Fixed cost = Health Insurance

Mixed cost = Maintenance costs

Shipping costs are variable because a unit shipped costs $3.60. The total shipping cost for each month varies according to the units shipped in the month.

Health Insurance costs are fixed as there is no change in cost notwithstanding the number of employees in each month.  The total health insurance cost remains the same every month.

Maintenance costs are mixed for each month, as there is a fixed element and a variable element.

2. Cost function for each cost:

Maintenance = $4,200 + $2.10 per machine hour

Health Insurance = $8,600

Shipping cost = $3.60 per unit

3. Cost function = $12,800 + $2.1m + $3.6s

where m = machine hours

and s =  units shipped

4. The total operating cost for the month

= $46,040

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Month     Maintenance Machine  Health   Number of  Shipping     Units

                     costs        Hours  Insurance  Employees   Costs    Shipped

January          4500       165         8600            68            25778       7160

February        4452       120         8600            75           29664      8240

March            4600       230        8600            92            28674      7965

April               4850        318        8600           105           23058      8405

May                5166       460        8600            89            21294       5915

June              4760       280        8600            87            33282      9245

July                4910       340        8600            93             31428      8730

August         4960       360        8600            88            30924       8415

September  5070       420         8600            95             25110     6975

October      5250       495         8600           102           25866      7185

November   5271        510         8600            97             20124    5590

December  4760       275         8600            94            34596     9610

Cost Function for each cost:

Maintenance cost:

                     Machine Cost

                        Hours

November         510    5271

February           120    4452

Difference       390      819

Variable cost = $2.10 (819/390)

Fixed cost = $4,200 ($5,271 - ($2.10*510))  

Health Insurance:

Fixed cost = $8,600

Shipping cost:

Variable cost = $3.60 per unit

Cost function = $4,200 + $2.10m + $8,600 + $3.60s

= $12,800 + $2.1m + $3.6s

February cost = $12,800 + $2.1(120) + $3.6(8240)

= $12,800 + $252 + $29,664

= $42,716

IF:

Machine hours = 400

Employees = 80

Shipped units = 9,000

The total operating cost for the month will be:

Cost function = $12,800 + $2.1m + $3.6s

= $12,800 + ($2.1 * 400) + ($3.6 * 9,000)

= $12,800 + $840 + $32,400

= $46,040

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

0.343

Explanation:

Calculation for what The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to

First step is to calculate the Contribution margin using this formula

Contribution margin = Sales – Variable expenses

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin= $2,412,000 – ($1,170,000 + $414,000)

Contribution margin= $2,412,000 – $1,584,000

Contribution margin= $828,000

Now let calculate the Contribution margin ratio using this formula

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin ratio = $828,000 ÷ $2,412,000

Contribution margin ratio =0.343

Therefore The company's contribution margin ratio is closest to 0.343

On October 1, Eder Fabrication borrowed $60 million and issued a nine-month promissory note. Interest was payable at maturity. I
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

cash        55,110,929 debit

   note payable      55,110,929 credit

--to record singing of promissory note with discounted interest--

interest expense 1.583.741,77 debit

   note payable              1.583.741,77 credit

--to record accrued interest on note payable --

Explanation:

the note plus interest will be for 60 millions.

So to calcualte the isuance ofthe note we must calculate the present value of a lump sum at 12% discount rate:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  60,000,000.00

time   0.75

rate  0.12

\frac{60000000}{(1 + 0.12)^{0.75} } = PV  

PV   55,110,929.18

then at December 31th we solve for the accrued interest:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 55,110,929.18

time 0.25 (3 months over 12 month a year)

rate 0.12000

55110929.18154 \: (1+ 0.12)^{0.25} = Amount

Amount 56,694,670.95

accrued interest: 56,694,670.95 - 55,110,929.18 = 1.583.741,77

Ray's Pizzeria is considering the addition of a 5th worker if this increases profit. Pizza sales increased from 300 per day to 3
Anika [276]

Answer:

60 pizzas

40 pizzas

Explanation:

Marginal product measures the change in output as a result of a change in input by one unit

Marginal product = change in output / change in input

Marginal product for the 4th worker

Change in output = 360 - 300 = 60 pizzas

Change in input = 4 - 3 = 1 worker

Marginal product = 60 / 1 = 60

Marginal product for the 5th worker

Change in output = 400 - 360 = 40 pizzas

Change in input = 5 - 4 = 1

Marginal product = 40 / 1 = 40

It can be seen that marginal product decreased from 60 to 40 when the 5th worker was added. This illustrates diminishing marginal returns.

The law of diminishing returns says as more units of a variable input is added to a fixed income of production, output might increase at a point but after some time total output would increase at a decreasing rate and marginal product would be decreasing.
