Students have asked these similar questions
a)
Classify each cost as fixed, variable or mixed, using production volume as the cost driver.
b)
Use the high-low method to separate mixed costs into their fixed and variable components and prepare the cost formula for each of the mixed costs.
C. If Green Corridor Company expects a production volume of 30,000 bicycles in the coming quarter,
prepare the production cost formula for the quarter and predict the total production cost.
1) Determine the variable cost per unit and the fixed cost using the high-low method. 2) What is the equation of the total mixed cost function?
3) Based on the High-Low method, what is the total production costs if 6,500 units are produced?4) Prepare the scatter diagram and insert the trendline or line of best-fit. Use a scale of 2 cm to represent 1,000 units on the x-axis & 2 cm to represent $50,000 on the yaxis.5) Using the line of best-fit, determine the company’s fixed cost per month and the variable cost per unit. (Use 0 & 5,000 units.)

The following information concerns labor availability, labor utilization, and product profitability: a. Develop a linear programming model of the Hartman Company problem. Solve the model to determine the optimal production quantities of products 1 and 2. b. In computing the profit contribution per unit, management does not deduct labor costs because they are considered fixed for the upcoming planning period. However, suppose that overtime can be scheduled in some of the departments. Which departments would you recommend scheduling for overtime? How much would you be willing to pay per hour of overtime in each department? c. Suppose that 10, 6, and 8 hours of overtime may be scheduled in departments A, B, and C, respectively. The cost per hour of overtime is 18 in department A, 22.50 in department B, and 12 in department C. Formulate a linear programming model that can be used to determine the optimal production quantities if overtime is made available.
