Break-even analysis To be profitable, a firm must recover its costs. These costs include both its fixed and its variable costs. One way that a firm evaluates at what stage it would recover the invested costs is to calculate how many units or how much in dollar sales is necessary for the firm to earn a profit. Consider the case of Dynamic Defenses Corporation: Dynamic Defenses Corporation is considering a project that will have fixed costs of $12,000,000. The product will be sold for $32.50 per unit, and will incur a variable cost of $10.75 per unit. 1) Given Dynamic Defenses’s cost structure, it will have to sell (551,724/330,769/116,012/314,199) units to break even on this project (QBE). 2) Dynamic Defenses Corporation’s marketing sales director doesn’t think that the market for the firm’s goods is big enough to sell enough units to make the company’s target operating profit of $25,000,000. In fact, she believes that the firm will be able to sell only about…
The Robo Division, a decentralized division of GMT Industries, has been approached to submit a bid for a potential project for the RSP Company. Robo Division has been informed by RSP that they will not consider bids over $8,000,000. Robo Division purchases its materials from the Cross Division of GMT Industries. There would be no additional fixed costs for either the Robo or Cross Divisions. Information regarding this project is as follows. Cross Robo Division Division Variable Costs $1,500,000 $4,800,000 Transfer Price 3,700,000 If Robo Division submits a bid for $8,000,000, the amount of contribution margin recognized by the Robo Division and GMT Industries, respectively, is: a. $(500,000) and $(2,000,000). Ob. $3,200,000 and $(500,000). Oc. $(500,000) and $1,700,000. Od. $3,200,000 and $1,700.000.
Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Illinois Metallurgy Corporation has two divisions. The Fabrication Division transfers partially completed components to the Assembly Division at a predetermined transfer price. The Fabrication Division's standard variable production cost per unit is $550. The division has no excess capacity, and it could sell all of its components to outside buyers at $770 per unit in a perfectly competitive market. 2. What would be the transfer price if the Fabrication Division had excess capacity? Transfer price < Prev 7 of 7 Next hulu

Sheffield Corp. is unsure of whether to sell its product assembled or unassembled. The unit cost of the unassembled product is $27 and Sheffield would sell it for $62. The cost to assemble the product is estimated at $19 per unit and the company believes the market would support a price of $66 on the assembled unit. What decision should Sheffield make and why? O Process further because the company will be better off by $16 per unit. O Sell before assembly because the company will be better off by $15 per unit. O Sell before assembly because the company will be better off by $4 per unit. O Process further because the company will be better off by $12 per unit.

All parts are under one question, per your policy all parts can be answered. 3. Analysis of an expansion project Companies invest in expansion projects with the expectation of increasing the earnings of its business. Consider the case of Yeatman Co.: Yeatman Co. is considering an investment that will have the following sales, variable costs, and fixed operating costs: Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Unit sales 3,000 3,250 3,300 3,400 Sales price $17.25 $17.33 $17.45 $18.24 Variable cost per unit $8.88 $8.92 $9.03 $9.06 Fixed operating costs $12,500 $13,000 $13,220 $13,250 This project will require an investment of $15,000 in new equipment. Under the new tax law, the equipment is eligible for 100% bonus deprecation at t = 0, so it will be fully depreciated at the time of purchase. The equipment will have no salvage value at the end of the project’s four-year life. Yeatman pays a constant tax rate of 25%, and it has a weighted average cost of…
A steel company in Hamiton can purchase Alberta coal at C$125 per metric tonne (1,000 kg) or West Virginia coal at US$115 per ton (2.200 lb). (1 kg = 2.205 lb) How much cheaper in CS per metric tonne is the less expensive source if US$0.805 = C$1.00? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Two currently owned machines are being considered for the production of a part. The capital investment associated with the machines is about the same. The important differences between the machines are their production capacities (production rate × available production hours) and their reject rates (percentage of parts produced that cannot be sold). The material cost is P300.00 per part, and all defect-free parts produced can be sold for P600 each. (Rejected parts have negligible scrap value.) For either machine, the operator cost is P750.00 per hour and the variable overhead rate for traceable costs is P250.00 per hour. Considering the table below: MACHINE A: Production rate: 100 parts/hr Hours available for production: 7hrs/day Percent parts rejected: 10% MACHINE B: Production rate: 130 parts/hr Hours available for production: 6hrs/day Percent parts rejected: 15% What is the profit per day of Machine A? What is the profit per day of Machine B?
