Titanic Roofing Company has estimated the following amounts for its next fiscal​ year: Total fixed costs $ 840 comma 000 Sale pr
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Operating income increases by $40,000.

Explanation:

Given that,

Total fixed costs = $840,000

Sale price per unit = $60

Variable cost per unit = $30

Additional amount spend on advertising = $35,000

Sales volume would increase by 2,500 units.

Contribution margin:

= Sales - Variable costs

= $60 - $30

= $30 per unit

Increase in operating income:

= Increase in contribution margin - Increase in Fixed costs

= ($30 × 2,500 units) - $35,000

= $75,000 - $35,000

= $40,000

Moonbeam Company manufactures toasters. For the first 8 months of 2020, the company reported the following operating results whi
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Moonbeam Company

a) Incremental analysis for the special order:

Sales revenue ($7.87 * 20,800) =   $163,696

Variable costs ($6.62 * 20,800) =    (137,696)

Contribution margin =                        26,000

Shipping costs                                     (2,900)

Net income from special order =     $23,100

b) Moonbeam should accept the special order.  It generates some net income for covering the company's fixed cost and does not exceed the company's plant capacity.  It only adds about 4% to the operating plant capacity.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                        Total               Variable        Fixed

Sales (375,200 units)  $4,378,000  

Cost of goods sold        2,588,880      1,812,216       776,664

Gross profit                     1,789,120

Operating expenses        839,510        671,608        167,902

Net income                    $949,610

Total costs                                       $2,483,824    $944,566

Selling price = $11.67 ($4,378,000/375,200)

Variable costs per unit = $6.62 ($2,483,824/375,200)

Total plant capacity = 500,267 units (375,200/75%)

Increase in plant capacity = 396,000 (375,200 + 20,800)
