Assume a company is considering adding a new product. The expected cost and revenue data for this product are as follows: Annual sales 5,000 units Unit selling price $ 60 Unit variable costs: Production $ 33 Selling $ 6 Incremental fixed costs per year: Production $ 34,500 Selling $ 45,000 If the company adds the new product, it expects the contribution margin of other product lines to drop by $15,300 per year. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of adding the new product? Multiple Choice $40,800 $10,200 $89,700 $25,500
A firm uses simple linear regression to forecast the costs for its main product line. If fixed costs are equal to $235,000 and variable costs are $10 per unit, how many units does it need to sell at $15 per unit to make a $300,000 profit?
Hello, I have the following question. D&R Corp. has annual revenues of $284,000, an average contribution margin of 35%, and fixed expenses of $100,500. A. Management is considering adding a new product to the company's product line. The new item will have $8.6 of variable costs per unit. Calculate the selling price that will be required if this product is not to affect the average contribution margin ratio. (I got $13.23 per unit). B. If the new product adds an additional $31,300 to D&R's fixed expenses, how many units of the new product must be sold at the price calculated in part A to break-even on the new product? (Do not round immediate calculations). C. If 28,800 units of the new product could be sold at a price of $13.8 per unit, and the company's other business did not change, calculate D&R's total operating income and average contribution margin ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round average contribution margin ratio to 2…
