The original data is :

Data for Hermann Corporation

                                          Per unit     Percent of sales

Selling price                         $ 75              100%

Variable expenses                  51                 68

Contribution margin             $ 24               32%

The fixed expenses are $ 75,000 per month and the company is selling 4000 units per month.

Solution :

                                                     Present             Proposed

Sales                                             300000            375000

Less : Variable cost                      204000           275000

Contribution margin                     96000               100000

Less : Fixed expenses             <u>    75000     </u>      <u>     75000    </u>

Net income                                   21000                25000

The net operating income :      Increases          4000

Net operating income = increased sales Net income - current sales net income.

Therefore the higher quality component should be used.

Sheridan Company sells merchandise on account for $6400 to Carla Vista Company with credit terms of 2/10, n/30. Block Company re
Aliun [14]

Answer: $4,508

Explanation:

Companies usually give discounts with credit terms to encourage Receivables to pay faster.

In this scenario, credit terms of 2/10, n/30 were offered which means that if Carla Vista Company pays within 10 days they get a discount of 2% but if they don't they should pay the full amount in 30 days.

They paid within the discount period meaning that they qualify for the discount of 2% but they however returned goods worth $1800.

So calculating for that would be,

= (6,400 - 1800) (1 - 0.02)

= $4,508

The amount of the check is $4,508

marta [7]

Answer: $7.20 per minute

Explanation:

Find out the profitability of each product as Contribution Margin per minute.

Magnifico

Contribution margin per minute = (Selling price - Variable cost) / minutes on the constraint

= (335.18 - 259.26) / 7.5

= $10.12 per minute

Bellissimo

= (228.46 - 173.08) / 4.3

= $12.88 per minute

Lovely

= (199.21 - 159.61) / 5.5

= $7.20 per minute

Their least profitable product is $7.20 per minute.

The machine does not have sufficient time to satisfy the needs of Lovely so they will have to pay more to acquire more of the resource but they should not pay anything more than $7.20 per minute as this is their contribution margin for the product. and anything more would result in a loss.
