Makovka662 [10]

The question is reproduced in the table below for clarity                        

                               Oven                                  Contribution

                         Hours Required                 Margin Per Unit

Muffins                        0.2                                           $4

Coffee Cakes        0.3                                        $5

Answer:

Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00

Explanation:

<em>When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in  such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.</em>

Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:

Step 1

<em>Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product</em>

                                                                      cont/hr                   ranking

Muffin                        $4/0.2 hour =              20                     <em> 1st</em>

Coffee cakes                 $5/0.3 hour=        16.67                      2nd

<em>Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it</em>

Step 2

<em>Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin</em>

Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000

                                        = $ 60,000.00

Explanation:

($10,082 billion/177.1) x 100 = 5,692.83
