At Taste of Thyme coffee shop a dirty chai latte creates a profit point of $2.85 for a small and $3.80 for a large. In a month, 200 small lattes were sold and 285 large lattes. As a fast growing demand item with fall approaching, the demand is estimated at 400 and 420 per month. The amount of machine time needed to produce the lattes is 5 minutes and 7 minutes each or for a month, 16.67 hours a month for a small and 33.25 hours a month for a large. What is the maximization function for profit? A. Profit = 400x1 + 420x2 B. Profit = 2.85x1 + 3.80x2 C. Profit = 16.67x1 + 33.25x2 D. Profit = 2.50x1 + 3.50x2

Trumps Inc. has developed a chew-proof dog bed-the Tuff Pup. Fixed costs are P 204,000 per year. The average price for the Tuff-Pup is P 36, and the average variable cost is P 22 per unit. Currently, Trumps produces and sells 20,000 Tuff-Pups annually. Required: How many Tuff-Pups must be sold to break-even? If Trumps wants to earn P95,000 in profit, how many Tuff-Pups must be sold? Prepare a variable-costing income statement to verify your answer. Suppose that Trumps would like to lower the break-even units to 12,000. The company does not believe that the price or fixed cost can be changed. Calculate the new unit variable cost that would result in break-even units of 12,000 units. (Round to the nearest cent). What is Trumps current contribution margin and operating income? Calculate the degree of operating leverage (round your answer to four decimal places.) If sales increased by 10% next year, what would the present change in operating income be?
