- Imagine you are taking 3 classes (Economics, English and Wellness) this semester and want to calculate your total cost per course. Assume only two costs: Tuition and Internet. Tuition, a direct cost, is $1,000 per course. Internet is a shared (overhead) cost and is $450 per semester. Assume you spend 60% of your time online for Economics, 30% for English and 10% for Wellness. Provide the following information: 1. Cost for Economics when overhead is allocated by the number of courses you are taking 2. Cost for Economics when overhead is allocated by time spent online 3. Cost for Wellness when overhead is allocated by the number of courses you are taking 4. Cost for Wellness when overhead is allocated by time spent onlinearrow_forwardRequired information Learning Objective 05-P2: Compute the break-even point for a single-product company. A company's break-even point for a period is the sales volume at which total revenues equal total costs. To compute a break-even point in terms of sales units, we divide total fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit. To compute a break-even point in terms of sales dollars, divide total fixed costs by the contribution margin ratio.

Recently, Thames developed a long-term care policy for sale to members of university and college alumni associations. Thames estimated that the sale and service of this type of policy would be subject to a 90 percent cumulative average-time learning curve model. Each unit consists of 350 policies sold. The first unit is estimated to take 1,000 hours to sell and service. Required: 1. Set up a table with columns for cumulative number of units, cumulative average time per unit in hours, and the cumulative total time in hours. Complete the table for 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 units. 2. Suppose that Thames revises its assumption to an 80 percent learning curve. How will this affect the amount of time needed to sell and service eight units? How do you suppose that Thames estimates the percent learning rate?arrow_forwardappear below: Instructor wages Classroom supplies Utilities Campus rent Insurance Administrative expenses Fixed Cost Cost per Cost per per Month Course $ 2,930 Student $ 270 $ 80 $ 1,220 $ 5,100 $ 2,400 $ 3,600 $ 40 $ 3 For example, administrative expenses should be $3,600 per month plus $40 per course plus $3 per student.

Specifically, prepare an analysis that includes the projected revenue, variable costs, and fixed costs for enrollment levels of 20, 25, 30 and 37 students using the monthly projections in Attachment A of the case. 2. Then, compute the weighted average contribution margin (CM) per student (computed as the total CM divided by the number of students enrolled) and 3. The number of students that need to enroll at each of the four levels of enrollment for the center to break even. For this analysis, I have provided an Excel template in which I have already sorted variable and fixed costs: I have included the raw data. Note: Your enrollment information has already been weighted so you will not need to calculate weights for your weighted average CM.arrow_forwardConsider a process with a unit cost of $40 for the first unit; that is, c(1) = 40, anda learning rate of LR = 0.9.

The organizations believes a small group learning environment allows students to become more comfortable in asking questions while being able to learn from other students. As a result, each instructor is expected to have a class of six students and each session is two hours long. There are four instructors and they are each being paid $35 per hour. Each session is expected to cost $30 for the student. For the month of June, the company expects 120 sessions. By the end of the month the company noticed everything has met expectations expect the following Instructors were being paid at $40 per hour There were a total of 100 sessions in the month students paid 34 per session A) Calculate the selling price variance for the month.
