- XYZ Corporation manufactures two products, Simple and Complex. The following annual information was gathered: Simple Complex Selling price per unit P47.00 P26.00 Variable cost per unit 42.00 22.00 Total annual fixed costs are P18,000. Assume XYZ Corporation can produce and sell any mix of Simple or Complex at full capacity. It takes 1.5 hours to make one unit of Complex. However, Simple takes 50% longer to manufacture when compared to Complex. Only 120,000 hours of plant capacity are available.
