Answer:
Sandy Shores Corporation
J's Segment Contribution Margin is:
= $700,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Sales revenue $1,300,000
Variable operating expenses 600,000
Contribution $700,000
Fixed expenses:
Traceable to J and controllable by J 275,000
Traceable to J and controllable by others 80,000
Total fixed expenses 355,000
Net operating income $345,000
b) The contribution margin is the difference between total sales revenue and the variable costs. The idea of segment contribution margin is that it covers the fixed expenses, whether controllable by the segment or not.
Answer:
There is a loss on buying from outside supplier ,Peach's offer should not be accepted.
Explanation:
Variable cost is a cost that varies with number of units produced or sold so it is always a relevant cost while making decision.
Fixed cost remains constant irrespective of number of units so it is a irrelevant cost unless avoidable.So in the given case ,fixed cost $70 is irrelevant since same will be incurred whether purchased or manufactured.
Incremental savings
Saving in variable cost 220
saving in fixed cost 25
Total saving 245
less: Incremental cost (270)
Incremental profit /(loss) on buying from outside supplier (25)
Total loss 25*5900= -147500
Therefore, There is a loss on buying from outside supplier ,Peach's offer should not be accepted.
Answer:
$11,760
Explanation:
The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income/profit.
Without the new offer
Profit = 5000($29 - $15) - $20,900
= $70,000 - $20,900
= $49,100
For the new order a variable selling cost of $2 per unit would be eliminated, the contribution of the order will be
= 1680($20 - $15 + $2)
= 1680 * $7
= $11,760
This is the differential effect on profit.
Marginal Cost is the correct answer
Answer: $1,288.98
Explanation: The cost of the Insurance is calculated at a cost per $100 of value. The first step is to calculate how many 100s are in the value of the property. This is done by dividing 1,023,000 by 100 = 10,230. Next, you need to multiply 10,230 by the rate of .126, which equals $1,288.98, the cost of the cost.
