Answer:
$149,600
Explanation:
Variable cost per unit = 36+57+3+5 =
Variable cost per unit = $101
Contribution margin per unit = 145 - 101
Contribution margin per unit = $44 per unit
Total contribution margin = 3,400 * $44
Total contribution margin = $149,600
Answer:
A) Recognize the write-down as a separate line item.
Explanation:
IAS 2 Accounting for Inventory requires that inventory be recognized at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory is a balance sheet item which is initially recognized at cost.
However, once there is an indication that the cost is lower than the net realizable value, the carrying amount of inventory is written down with the write off recognized as a separate line in the P/l and not as an addition to the cost of goods sold.
Hence the right option is A) Recognize the write-down as a separate line item.
Let us see it from a cost-efficiency point of view. We have that every unit of the first selles costs 40$. But the total cost might be higher, since there is a chance for defect. On average, on 3% of the cases the defect will happen and it will cost him 500$. Hence, on average, a fence unit from producer a costs 40$ and has a repair cost of 3%*500$=15$. The total thus is 55$. For the second provider of fences, the standard cost is 50$. Similarly, the average repair cost is 0,5%*500$=2,5$. Hence, the total cost per unit is 52,5$ (total cost=upfront payment+repair costs). We see thus that the lady should win the bid; even if you pay more upfront, the difference in durability makes up the cost difference.
