A manufacturer sells a particular product in both Brazil and the U.S. In Brazil, the manufacturer has been selling 4,900 units per year of the product at a price of $200 and a contribution margin of 25 percent. For sales of this product in Brazil, calculate the breakeven sales level for a $20 price increase. Show your work. In the U.S., the manufacturer’s price for this product is $400 and the contribution margin is 50 percent. The manufacturer knows that, because of gray market commerce, every one-unit change of sales of this product in Brazil leads to a 0.15-unit sales change in the opposite direction in the U.S. Given this information, recalculate the breakeven sales level in Brazil described in Part a. Show your work. Using the course material, describe the concept of a price corridor. Then explain how the difference between the breakeven you calculated in Part (b) and the one you calculated in Part (a) is helpful for applying the price-corridor concept in this situation.
INTEGRATIVE CASE After working for years as a regional manager for a retail organization, Scott Parry opened his own business with Susan Gonzalez, one of his district managers, as his partner. They formed S&S to sell appliances and consumer electronics. Scott and Susan pursued a "clicks and bricks" strategy by renting a building in a busy part of town and adding an electronic storefront. Scott and Susan invested enough money to see them through the first six months. They will hire 15 employees within the next two weeks-three to stock the shelves, four sales rep- resentatives, six checkout clerks, and two to develop and maintain the electronic storefront. Scott and Susan will host S&S's grand opening in five weeks. To meet that deadline, they have to address the following important issues: 1. What decisions do they need to make to be successful and profitable? For example: a. How should they price products to be competitive yet earn a profit? b. Should they extend credit, and, if so, on…
Economic Dispatch Question It is required to investigate the economic dispatch of three power plants located in the western part of Victoria. The total load (PD) to be supplied by those power plants is 1500 MW. Assume the cost functions and the generation limits for these power plants are as follows. 350+ 4.2 P₁ + 0.006 P² 600 + 3.1 P₂ + 0.004 P² 500+ 4.2 P3 +0.007 P3 a) b) c) Plant 1: C₁ Plant 2: C₂ Plant 3: C3 = = = 150 ≤ P₁ ≤ 550 350 ≤ P₂ ≤ 700 120 ≤P3 ≤ 400 If the total load is shared among the three power plants equally, what is power generation of each power plant and what is the total operating cost in $/hr in this case. Find the optimal (economic) dispatch of each plant, the incremental operating cost 1, and the total operation cost in $/hr. (You don't need to use the iteration method). If it is expected that those power plant will operate in average 18 hrs a day, how much saving in cost if the economic dispatch operation with shared power operation (in part a).
Write Company has a maximum capacity of 200,000 units per year. Variable manufacturing costs are $12 per unit. Fixed overhead is $600,000 per year.

HeatAll, manufacturer of radiant heaters (great for heating outdoor dining areas, a “hot” item these past few years!), finds that it costs them $160 to produce each heater. The company has total fixed costs of $5 million. If the company manufactures 250,000 units, what is the unit cost?
EF is preparing its budget for next year. Variable costs per unit are budgeted to be 60% of selling price. Fixed costs are budgeted to be 10% of total sales value. If EF increases its budgeted selling price by 10% and budgeted variable costs, budgeted fixed costs and budgeted sales volume remains unchanged, EF’s budgeted contribution per unit would:
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?
