Basic Break-Even Calculations Suppose that Larimer Company sells a product for $24. Unit costs are as follows: Direct materials
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $24.

Unit costs are as follows:

Direct materials $4.98

Direct labor 2.10

Variable factory overhead 1.00

Variable selling and administrative expense 2.00

Total unitary variable cost= $10.08

Total fixed factory overhead= $26,500

Total fixed selling and administrative expense= $15,260.

a. Variable cost per unit= 4.98 + 2.1 + 1 + 2= $10.08

Unitary contribution margin= 24 - 10.08= $13.92

b.

Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / selling price

Contribution margin ratio= 13.92 / 24= 0.58

Variable cost ratio= unitary variable cost / selling price

Variable cost ratio= 10.08 / 24= 0.42

<u>c. To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (26,500 + 15,260) / 13.92

Break-even point in units= 3,000

<u>d. Finally, the contribution margin income statement:</u>

Sales= 3,000*24= 72,000

Total variable cost= 3,000*10.08= (30,240)

Contribution margin= 41,760

Total fixed factory overhead= (26,500)

Total fixed selling and administrative expense= (15,260)

Net operating income= 0

Village Bank has $310 million worth of assets with a duration of 12 years and liabilities worth $248 million with a duration of
vitfil [10]

Answer:

2129  futures contracts to be sold

Explanation:

Asset worth = $310 million

Asset duration = 12 years

liabilities = $248 million

Liabilities duration = 5 years

T-bond futures contracts = 104-20 (30nds)

% of assets = 310 / 248 =

<u>Determine how many futures contracts Village Bank will sell to fully hedge the balance </u>

Number of Contracts = -[Assets * (Asset Duration – (Liabilities Duration * % of Assets) / (Duration * Contract Value)]

 = - [ 310 * ( 12 - ( 5 * (310/248)) / ( 8 * ( 104 + ( 20/30)) ]

= - [ 310 * ( 12 -  6.25 ) / ( 8 * 104.6667 ) ]

= - [ 310 * 5.75 / 837.3336 ]

= - 2.12878 * 1000

= 2128.78 ≈  2129 ( number of futures contracts to be sold )

AlladinOne [14]

Answer: Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Cheizza, a pizza vendor knows that the fresh cheese is the unique selling point for him. And because of this fresh cheese, the demand for his pizza is drastically increases. So, for meeting this demand, he have to purchase more cheese.

We know that cheese is made up from milk and milk is used as an input for the production of cheese. But milk is a raw material and limited in quantity to meet this demand.

Cheizza also knows that cheese is used in the pizzas, hence, if there is any changes in the supply of cheese, as a result it directly affects the demand for pizzas.

Therefore, there is a scarcity of resources in the form of milk.
