Answer:
D) Quantity sold rose while the effect on price is ambiguous.
Explanation:
Two separate things happened here;
- Change in consumer habits have shifted the the demand curve to the right, increasing the quantity demanded at every price level.
- Better technology and lower costs have also shifted the supply curve to the right, increasing the quantity supplied at every price level.
One thing is certain, the quantity demanded and supplied increased, so the total quantity sold definitely increased. The price issue is not certain because you would need additional information about which shift was larger, the shift of the supply curve or the demand curve.
Answer:
(a)
Mathematical Equation for break-even
F = QP - QV
Where
F = fixed cost
Q = Break-even quantity
P = Selling price
V = Variable cost
F = Q ( P - V )
Q = F / ( P - V )
Q = $327,030 / ( $630 - $300 )
Q = $327,030 / $330
Q = 991 units
(b)
Contribution Margin = Price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution Margin = $630 - $300 = $330
Break-even Point in Units = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin per unit
Break-even Point in Units = $327,030 / $330 = 991 units
Explanation:
Mathematical equation use the the break-even equation which represent the behavior of each element towards the break-even point.
Contribution per unit method use the contribution of each unit to calculate the break-even point.
Answer:
High supply, Low demand
Explanation:
If there is a lot of one product that no one wants, they lower the prices to get rid of it
Answer:
Job 765 Job 766
Direct material $5,670 $8,900
Direct labor $3,500 $4,775
Overhead $5,400 $8,800
(27*200) (44*200)
Total Job cost $14,570 $22,475
b) Cost per unit = Total job cost/unit produced
Job 765 = $14,570/152 units
Job 765 = 95.86
Job 766 = $22,475/250 units
Job 766 = 89.90
