Question 1) Computate Inc. produces microprocessors for laptops. Last year, the company recognized revenues of $4,000,000. Total costs for the period were $2,000,000, of which $500,000 were fixed. If sales were to increase by $150,000, by how much would Computate’s operating income increase? The Operating Income would increase by $93,750 Total Revenue = $4,000,000 Total costs = $2,000,000 Fixed costs = $500,000 Increase in sales = $150,000 Variable Costs: = Total costs – Fixed costs = 2,000,000 – 500,000 = 1,500,000 Variable Cost per Unit of Sales: = Variable Costs / Total Revenue = 2,000,000 / 4,000,000 = 0.375 = 37.5% Additional Variable Costs Incurred: = Variable Cost per Unit of Sales x Sales Increase = 37.5% x 150,000 = $56,250 Operating Income: = Increase in Sales – Additional Variable Costs = 150,000 – 56,250 = 93,750 Question 2) Premier Printing produces custom labels and stationary for companies. In conducting CVP analysis of its Personalized Package, management decided to determine how many of the
packages would need to be sold in order to justify continuing the product line. Management determined that fixed costs direct related to this particular product amounted to $27,000 annually. Premier reported $120,000 of gross sales related to this product and variable product costs of $90,000. Assuming that each Personalized Package sells for $12 per unit, what is the minimum number of Personalized Packages that Premier needs to sell to break even and therefore justify the product line? Fixed costs = $27,000 Gross sales = $120,000 Variable costs = $90,000 Selling price per unit = $12 Variable Cost per Unit of Sales: = Variable costs / Gross sales = $90,000 / $120,000 = $0.75 Contribution Margin per Unit: = Selling price per unit – Variable cost per unit of sale = $12 – $0.75 = $11.25 Break-Even Point in Units: = Fixed costs / Contribution Margin per Unit = $27,000 / $11.25 = 2,400 Premier needs to sell approximately 2,400 personalized packages to break even and therefore justify the product line. This is the minimum number of units that need to be sold to cover the fixed costs. After selling these units, the company would start making a profit. Question 3) Jaroni Inc. produces specialty quilts and blankets using a partly manual, partly automated manufacturing process. Total sales for the previous period were $60,000. Wages, materials, and variable manufacturing overhead totaled $10,200. Salaries, depreciation, rent, and other fixed expenses amounted to $14,940. Jaroni charges $500 per customized blanket. What is Jaroni's break-even point in Sales Dollars? Sales = $60,000 Total Variable Costs = $10,200
Contribution Margin: = Sales - Total Variable Costs = $60,000 - $10,200 = $49,800 CM Ratio: = (Contribution Margin / Sales) x 100 = ($49,800 / $60,000) x 100 = 0.83 x 100 = 83% Fixed Costs = $14,940 Break-Even Point in Sales Dollars: = Fixed Costs / CM Ratio = $14,940 / 83% = $18,000 Jaroni Inc. would need to make $18,000 in sales to cover all their fixed and variable costs and to start making a profit. Question 4) Rough N' Tough (RNT) manufactures outdoors accessories. Management is considering producing the poles for their tents rather than continuing to purchase from their current supplier. The supplier charges $60 per set of poles. The cost accounting team has estimated that RNT would incur the following costs if they were to produce the poles instead: $40 per set for direct materials, $10 per set for direct labor, $7 per set for variable overhead, and $20 per set for fixed overhead application. RNT currently has unused production capacity and manufacturing equipment that could be used to manufacture the poles. RNT has planned to sell 5,000 tents this year. What would the change in overall cost be for the company if RNT produced the poles rather than purchasing them? The cost of manufacturing a set of poles:
= direct materials cost + direct labor cost + variable overhead cost + fixed overhead application cost = 40 + 10 + 7 + 20 = $77 The cost of buying a set of poles from supplier = $60 The total cost if the poles are purchased from the supplier would be: = $60 * 5,000 = $300,000 The total cost if the poles are produced in house would be: = $77 * 50 = $385,000 The change in overall cost if RNT produced the poles rather than purchasing them would be: = $385,000 - $300,000 = $85,000 If RNT decides to produce the poles in-house instead of purchasing them from the supplier, it would result in an increase in overall cost by $85,000. Question 5) Scholar Suppliers manufactures backpacks for students. The backpacks come in two sizes: Small, and Large. Scholar Suppliers anticipates the following sales volumes and prices for the coming period: Size Sales Volume Selling Price Small 3,000 backpacks $25 each Large 6,000 backpacks $75 each What is the budgeted level of revenue for the coming period? Total revenue of small backpacks: = sales volume * selling price = 3,000 * $25 = $75,000 Total revenue of large backpacks: = sales volume * selling price = 6,000 * $75 = $450,000
