Answer:

Unter Components

If Unter accepts the offer, the direct labor-hours required to produce the additional systems are:

= 8,640 hours.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Product Lines                 Star100    Star150

Direct materials                $ 55       $ 65

Direct labor                          24           30

Variable overhead               10            15

Fixed overhead                   80          110

Total cost per unit          $ 169    $ 220

Price                               $ 280    $ 380

Units sold                       4,000    2,000

Average wage rate is $15 per hour

Product Lines                 Star100          Star150

Hours to make one unit    1.6 hours      2 hours ($24/15 and $30/$15)

Special offer by a nationwide car-sharing service:

Systems to buy             2,400     2,400

Offered price                  $190     $240

Hours to make systems 3,840   4,800  

(2,400 *1.6 hours and 2,400 *2 hours)

Total hours required to make both systems = 8,640 hours (3,840 + 4,800)

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

break even rate = $31000

ultra break even point  = $62000

Explanation:

given data

total fixed costs = $1,612,000

solution

WE FIND HERE FIRST contribution margin that is

contribution margin for regular per unit = $20 - $8

contribution margin = $12

and

contribution margin for ultra = $24 - $ 4

contribution margin for ultra = $20

so if 1 unit of regular is sold

2 unit of ultra will sold here

so

contribution margin is here

contribution margin = ( $12 × 1 )+  (  $12 × 2 )

contribution margin =  $52

and

break even point at commposite rate = total fix cost ÷ contribution margin rate at commposite rate

so

break even rate = \frac{1612000}{52}

break even rate = $31000

and

ultra break even point = 31000 × 2

ultra break even point  = $62000
