Nature's Garden, a new restaurant situated on a busy highway in Pomona, California, specializes in a chef's salad selling for $7

mestny [16]

Answer:

Nature's Garden

a. Determination of the current average cost per meal:

Variable cost per meal = $3,800 ($4 x 950) based on full capacity

Fixed costs per day = $1,710

Total costs = $5,510

Average cost per meal = $5,510/950 = $5.80

b. Girl Scouts' offer of $150 for 30 girls:

Offered price per person = $5 ($150/30)

Projecting a loss of $0.60 per meal, this gives a total loss of $18 ($0.60 x 30)

Projected revenue from the offer = $150 + $18 = $168

Projected revenue per meal = $168/30 = $5.60

Actual revenue to be received per meal = $5.00

Loss of $0.60

The owner arrived at the $0.60 loss because his total costs per meal was $5.60.

c. Since the variable cost per meal is $4, the restaurant owner could accept the offer if the additional 300 meals will not increase his daily fixed costs due to lack of capacity. If the fixed costs increase with this addition, then it may not be reasonable to accept the offer. Based on this offer, the contribution to defraying fixed costs, given present capacity, is only $0.50 ($4.50 - $4) per meal.

Explanation:

Selling price of chef's salad = $7

Daily fixed costs = $1,710

Variable costs per meal = $4

Meals capacity per day = 950

Average meals = 900

Nature's Garden has a fixed cost of $1,710 based on current capacity of 950 meals per day. The fixed cost may increase with increasing capacity. This fact must be borne in mind when making decisions.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

1. Break even quantity is 18,125 units

2. Cost to make 28,000 units = $ 775,000

3. Total costs to buy 28,000 units = $ 696,000

4. Savings by using low cost option ( buy from outside) $ 79,000

Explanation:

Computation of Break even point

Variable cost to make equipment in house $ 25 per unit

Cost to purchase the unit from outside $ 17 per unit

Differential Cost per unit $ 8 per unit

Fixed costs to be paid to outside supplier $ 220,000

Fixed costs to be incurred in house $ 75,000

Incremental fixed costs $ 145,000

Break even point - Differential in fixed costs / Differential cost per unit

$ 145,000/ $ 8 = 18,125 units

Computation of costs to make 28,000 units

Variable costs per unit - $ 25 per unit

Units to be produced - 28,000 units

Total Variable costs $ 25 * 28,000 units $ 700,000

Fixed costs $ 75,000

Total costs to make 28,000 units $ 775,000

Computation of costs to buy 28,000 units

Variable costs per unit - $ 17 per unit

Units to be produced - 28,000 units

Total Variable costs $ 17 * 28,000 units $ 476,000

Fixed costs $ 220,000

Total costs to make 28,000 units $ 696,000

Computation of savings

Buying 28,000 units $ 775,000

Making 28,000 units $ 696,000

Savings from buying from outside $ 79,000
