Youngstown Glass Company manufactures three types of safety plate glass: large, medium, and small. All three products have high

demand. Thus, Youngstown Glass is able to sell all the safety glass it can make. The production process includes an autoclave operation, which is a pressurized heat treatment. The autoclave is a production bottleneck. Total fixed costs are $85,000 for the company as a whole. In addition, the following information is available about the three products:
Large Medium Small
Unit selling price $184 $160 $100
Unit variable cost 130 120 76
Unit contribution margin $54 $40 $24
Autoclave hours per unit 3 2 1
Total process hours per unit 5 4 2
Budgeted units of production 3,000 3,000 3,000

Required:
a. Determine the contribution margin by glass type and the total company income from operations for the budgeted units of production.
b. Prepare an analysis showing which product is the most profitable per bottleneck hour.

Answer:

                                                           Large    Medium    Small

Unit selling price                                 $184      $160       $100

Unit variable cost                                  130        120          76

Unit contribution margin                     $54        $40        $24

Autoclave hours per unit                       3            2              1

Total process hours per unit                 5            4              2

Budgeted units of production           3,000     3,000    3,000

a. Determine the contribution margin by glass type and the total company income from operations for the budgeted units of production.

  • total contribution margin for large safety plate glasses = $54 x 3,000 = $162,000
  • total contribution margin for medium safety plate glasses = $40 x 3,000 = $120,000
  • total contribution margin for small safety plate glasses = $24 x 3,000 = $72,000

b. Prepare an analysis showing which product is the most profitable per bottleneck hour.

contribution margin per autoclave hour:

  • large safety plate = $54 / 3 = $18 per autoclave hour
  • medium safety plate = $40 / 2 = $20 per autoclave hour
  • small safety plate = $24 / 1 = $24 per autoclave hour ⇒ MOST PROFITABLE PRODUCT PER AUTOCLAVE HOUR (BOTTLENECK)

Lisa's opportunity cost rate is 10 percent compounded annually. how much must she deposit in an account today if she wants to re
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The answer would be, $21,760

Explanation:

The formula to be used is  that of calculating the present value (PV) of the payment in the ordinary annuity (PMT). PMT are done annually, semi-annually, quarterly or monthly.

PV = PMT * ((1-(1/ (1+r) n))/r)

Where PV is the present value; PMT is the payment in an ordinary annuity; r is the opportunity cost rate; n is the number of years  

in this case, PV= 3,200; r=10%, and n=12

To get PV, substitute the values given above and compute as shown below:

PV  = 3,200*((1-(1/(1+0.10)12))/0.10)

PV= $21,760

With an opportunity cost of 10% compounded annually, Lisa will have to deposit $21,760 today if she wants to be receiving $3,200 at the end of each year for the next 12 years.

Hey there,

Allie could look up coupon and discount deals for the pizza. She could ask each of her friends to chip in a small amount of money to help with the costs. Another thing she could do is compare the prices of DVD's from various stores.

Imagine that to preserve the traditional way of life in small fishing villages, a government decides to impose a price floor tha
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

As a result of the price floor, price would increase. As a result, quantity demanded will decrease and the quantity supplied would increase.

Supply would exceed demand and as a result there would be an excess supply of fish.  

As an alternative to the price floor, the government can subsidise the cost of fishing. This would reduce the cost of producing fish

Explanation:

A price floor is when the government or an agency of the government sets the minimum price of a product. A price floor is binding if it is set above equilibrium price.
