on, 50 earth stations are produced and sold each year, profits total $500,000, and the firm's assets (all equity financed) are $4 million. The firm estimates that it can change its production process, adding $4.5 million to assets and $380,000 to fixed operating costs. This change will reduce variable costs per unit by $12,000 and increase output by 15 units. However, the sales price on all units must be lowered to $88,000 to permit sales of the additional output. The firm has tax loss carryforwards that render its tax rate zero, its cost of equity is 16%, and it uses no debt. What is the incremental profit

Answer:

Schweser Satellites Inc.

The incremental profit is:

= $845,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price of Satellite Earth Station = $95,000 each

Total sales revenue = $4,750,000 ($95,000 * 50)

Fixed costs, F = $2.5 million

Annual production and sales units = 50 units

Total profits = $500,000

Total contribution = $3 million ($2.5 m + $500,000)

Variable costs = $1,750,000 ($4,750,000 - $3,00,000)

Variable cost per unit = $35,000 ($1,750,000/50)

Assets = $4 million

Equity = $4 million

Additional assets = 4.5 million

Additional fixed operating costs = $380,000

New assets = 8.5 million

Fixed operating costs = $2.88 million

Variable cost reduction per unit = $12,000

New variable cost per unit = $23,000 ($35,000 - $12,000)

Production and sales units = 65 (50 + 15)

New selling price per unit = $88,000

Cost of equity = 16%

Tax rate = 0%

Profit under new arrangements:

Contribution per unit = $65,000 ($88,000 - $23,000)

Total contribution margin = $4,225,000 ($65,000 * 65)

Fixed operating costs =       $2,880,000

Net operating profit              $1,345,000

Incremental profit = $845,000 ($1,345,000 - $500,000)
