Hair Zone manufactures a brand of hair-styling gel. It is considering adding a modified version of the product – a foam that provides stronger hold. Hair Zone’s variable costs and prices to wholesalers are: Current hair gel New foam productUnit selling price 2.00 2.25Unit variable costs 0.85 1.25 Hair Zone expects to sell 1 million units of the new styling foam in the first year after introduction, but it expects that 60 per cent of those sales will come from buyers who normally purchase Hair Zone’s styling gel. Hair Zone estimates that it would sell 1.5 million units of the gel if it did not introduce the foam. If the fixed cost of launching the new foam will be €100,000 during the first year, should Hair Zone add the new product to its line? Why or why not?

As manager of the St. Cloud Theatre Company, you have decided that concession sales will support themselves. The following table provides the information you have been able to put together thus far: Item Soft Drink Wine Coffee Candy Selling Price $1.00 $1.75 $1.50 $0.75 Variable Cost $0.70 $1.00 $0.35 $0.35 % of Revenue 24 25 29 22 Last year's manager, Scott Ellis, has advised you to be sure to add 10% of variable cost as a waste allowance for all categories. You estimate labor cost to be $250.00 (5 booths with 2 people each). Even if nothing is sold, your labor cost will be $250.00, so you decide to consider this a fixed cost. Booth rental, which is a contractual cost at $60.00 for each booth per night, is also a fixed cost. a) Based on the information available, the per night break-even point in dollars for the St. Cloud Theatre Company = $ (round your response to two decimal places). b) Based on the given information, the per night break-even point in servings for w servings (round…
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Food revenue is $287,690, while beverage revenues are $78,981, in a 300-room hotel that runs 62.5% occupancy in the month of April. Fifty-four percent (54%) of food revenue was generated in the F&B outlets, while the remaining 46% was generated in banquets. Outlet food revenue was anticipated to account for 60% of revenue at a 29.5% food cost, while banquets were anticipated to generate 40% of revenue at a 22.5% food cost. Calculate the potential food cost ratio for the month of April?
