To determine: The total production costs of the mountain climbing shoes.
Introduction:
Cost: The term cost is a value of money used for the purpose of producing something.
A total cost is a total of variable and fixed cost of the company. The cost does not change if the output quantity changes, which is known as the fixed cost. The cost that changes when the output quantity changes is known as the variable cost.
To determine: The marginal cost per pair.
Introduction:
Marginal cost is the cost incurred for producing an additional one unit.
To determine: The average cost
Introduction:
Average cost is per unit cost of an output produced. It is arrived by dividing total cost by output quantity produced by the manufacturer.
To determine: The minimum acceptable total revenue from the order.

- Fixed cost = 10,000 Material cost per unit = 0.15 Labor cost per unit = 0.10 Revenue per unit = 0.65 Suppose Toys R Us sells all that it produces, profit is calculated by subtracting the fixed cost and total variable cost from total revenue. Give a mathematical model for calculating profit and implement your model from part in Excel. If Toys R Us makes 12,000 units of the new product, what is the resulting profit?arrow_forwardExample no1 A shoe company estimates that producing a pair of shoes on the production line can take place with a fixed cost of 52,000 TL and a variable cost of 9 TL. If a pair of shoes is sold for 25 TL, how many pairs of shoes must be sold to reach the breakeven point? If the firm sells 4,000 pairs of shoes for $25, how much money will it make?arrow_forwardBreakeven analysis (LO 1) Scott Confectionery sells its Stack-o-Choc candy bar for $0.80.

- Question 1. A company wants to produce a new product. In order to produce this product, the fixed cost is $40,000 and the variable cost is $15 per product. a. Assume that the purchase price for the product is $55, and the estimated demand for this product is 2000 units. Then, what is your suggestion to the company? To produce or not, and if yes, how many? [provide your reasonings] b. Answer part (a) but with an estimated demand of 900 units. [provide your reasonings] c. Assume that demand depends on the purchase price so that it would be 1000 and 2000 if the purchase price is $100 and $55 respectively. Then, what purchase price do you suggest to the company? [provide your reasonings]arrow_forwardPolaris Inc. manufactures two types of metal stampings for the automobile industry: door handles and trim kits. Fixed cost equals 146,000. Each door handle sells for 12 and has variable cost of 9; each trim kit sells for 8 and has variable cost of 5. Required: 1. What are the contribution margin per unit and the contribution margin ratio for door handles and for trim kits? 2. If Polaris sells 20,000 door handles and 40,000 trim kits, what is the operating income? 3. How many door handles and how many trim kits must be sold for Polaris to break even? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Assume that Polaris has the opportunity to rearrange its plant to produce only trim kits. If this is done, fixed costs will decrease by 35,000, and 70,000 trim kits can be produced and sold. Is this a good idea? Explain.arrow_forward2. Answer the following questions, considering each situation independently. You might not be able to answer the questions in the order they are asked. 1. A company earned $200,000 selling 100,000 units at $8 per unit. Its fixed costs are $400,000. A. What are variable cost per unit? Why? How? B. What is total contribution margin? Why? How? C. What would income be if sales increased by 5,000 units? Why? How?arrow_forward

What is the Contribution margin (in dollars)? 2. What is the profit function (without units using x as the number of cables sold)? 3. What is their projected profit or loss next month (in dollars), for which Samsung forecasts sales of 23241 cables? 4. What is the break even volume (without units)? For parts 1, 2, and 3, answer to the nearest cent. For part 4, answer to one decimal place (don't round up to the nearest whole unit). Answer: 1. Contribution margin = 2. Profit function: Profit= 3.

- The manufacturer of a product that a variable cost of $2.50 per unit and total fixed cost of $125,000 wants to determine the level of output necessary to avoid losses. a. what level of sales is necessary to break, even if the product is sold for $4.25? what will be the manufacturer's profit or loss on the sales of 1000,00 units? b.If fixed costs rise to $175,000, what is the new level of sales necessary to break even? c.If variable cost decline to $2.25 per unit, what is the new level of sales necessary to break even? d. If fixed cost were to increase to $17,000, while variable cost declined to $2.25 per unit, what is the new break-even level of sales? e. If a major proportion of fixed costs were noncahs (depreciation), would failure to achieve the break-even level of sales imply that the firm cannot pay its current obligation as they come due? Suppose $100,000 of the above fixed cost $125,000 werre depreciation expense. what level of sales would be the cash break-even level of sales?…arrow_forwardParker Co. can further process Product J to produce Product D. Product J is currently selling for $21 per pound and costs $15.75 per pound to produce. Product D would sell for $35 per pound and would require an additional cost of $8.75 per pound to produce.
