A manufacturer produces electronic devices at a labor cost of PhP 53 a piece and a material cost of PhP 53 a piece. The fixed charges on the company are PhP 4,036,701 a month and the variable costs are PhP 34 a piece. If the device sells for PhP 206 a piece, what will be the number of pieces that must be produced each month to breakeven. Express answer in whole number.

Q12
Khaled has developed a new technology device that is so exciting he is considering quitting his job in order to produce and market it on a large- scale basis. Khaled will rent a small factory for 2,000dhs per month for production purposes. Utilitios will cost 500dhs per month. Khaled has already taken an industrial design course at Dubai Men's College to help prepare for this venture. The course cost 800dhs. Khaled will rent production equipment at a monthly cost of 3,000dhs. He estimates the material cost per unit will be 20dhs, and the labor cost will be 12dhs per unit. He will hire workers and spend his time promoting the product. To do this he will quit his job which pays 25,000dhs per month Advertising and promotion will cost 3,500dhs per month. Required: 1- 2- Calculate the total Fixed cost 3- Calculate the total variable cost per unit= 4- If the machine max production capacity is 1000 units per month, what is the selling price he should set to break even monthly? 5- If Khaled to…
ECONOMICS UPVOTE WILL BE GIVEN. PLEASE WRITE THE SOLUTIONS LEGIBLY. NO LONG EXPLANATION NEEDED. A company is analyzing a make-versus-purchase situation for a component used in several products, and the engineering department has developed these data: Option A: Purchase 10,000 items per year at a fixed price of Php 425 per item. The cost of placing the order is negligible according to the present cost accounting procedure. Option B: Manufacture 10,000 items per year, using available capacity in the factory. Cost estimates are direct materials = Php 250 per item and direct labor = Php 75 per item. Manufacturing overhead is allocated at 200% of direct labor (= Php 150 per item). Based on these data, should the item be purchased or manufactured?
ABC enterprise demands 3,400 pieces of metal sheets manufactured by XYZ Metals. With the manual processing, the cutting cost is P 30.00 per unit. An automatic cutting machine was offered to XYZ Metals worth P 300,000, which will reduce the cutting cost by 25%. Without considering other costs, if the machine is bought, how long will XYZ Metals be able to regain the cost?
If prices are calculated with a 35% mark-up based on cost, what is the percent that those prices should be marked down to get back to their original cost? Support the answer with appropriate computations.
The fixed cost related to the production of a product is $500,000 per year. Assume that the variable cost is $20,000 and the sell- ing price is $30,000 for each percentage point of annual output capacity (which equals sales demand). Thus, the maximum sales per year are $3,000,000 (at 100% of output capacity), and we have: (2.3) C; = $500,000 per year C, $20,000/1% of annual output capacity (Fixed cost) (Variable cost/unit) p = $30,000/1%' of annual output capacity (Selling price/unit) a. Determine the breakeven point for this situ- ation.
An engineer analyzing cost data about hydrogen sulfide monitors discovered that the information for the first three years was missing. However, he knew the cost in year 4 was $1250 and that it increased by 5% each year thereafter. If the same trend applied to the first three years, the cost in year 1 was:a. $1312.50b. $1190.48c. $1028.38d. $1079.80
