Damen Ship Repair has just introduced a new service. For a fixed annual fee, Damen will predict what are the most likely repair parts you will need for each of your cargo ships over the next year. It will then preposition those parts either on your ships or at Damen’s shipyards depending on whether your crew can install that part or it must be done at a shipyard.

Product R sells for $20; its variable cost is $6. Product S sells for $50; its variable cost is $30. Product R accounts for 60 percent of the firm’s sales, while S accounts for 40 percent. The firm’s fixed costs are $4 million annually. Calculate the firm’s break-even pointarrow_forwardA utility company has the added challenge of estimating the impact of an outage on its customers. In other words, a good-quality machine will theoretically lead to fewer (or shorter) outages. That is a real benefit to the company as customers without service can lead to a public relations nightmare. That said, there is real value to a reduction in outages and it should be considered as part of the spending analysis. Everyone, How would you go about estimating the theoretical value of "fewer outages"?arrow_forward
- Assume your home is assessed at $250,000. You have a $241,000 loan for 25 years at 6 percent. Your property tax rate is 1.4 percent of the assessed value. In year one, you would pay $15,665 in mortgage interest and $3,500 in property tax (1.4 percent on $250,000 assessed value). What is the total deduction you can take on your federal income tax return?arrow_forwardThree years ago you purchased a 12% coupon bond that pays semiannual coupon payments for $986.

The total cost required to produce and market this toy would be $500,000 plus $15 per toy produced. The company would receive revenue of $35 for each toy sold. Assuming that every unit of this toy that is produced is sold, write an expression for the profit in terms of the number produced and sold. Then find the break-even point that this number must exceed to make it worthwhile to introduce this toy. Now assume that the number that can be sold might be less than the number produced. Write an expression for the profit in terms of these two numbers. Formulate a spreadsheet that will give the profit in part b for any values of the two numbers. Write a mathematical expression for the constraint that the number produced should not exceed the number that can be sold.arrow_forward

Make the following assumptions: You will charge $600 per person for a two-day class. You estimate that 30 people will attend the class, but you want to change this input. Your fixed costs include $500 total to rent a room for both days, setup fees of $400 for registration, and $300 for designing a postcard for advertising. Youwill not include your labor costs for this estimate, but you estimate that you will spend at least 150 hours developing materials, managing the project, and giving the actual class. You would like to know what your time is worth given different scenarios. Youwill order 5,000 postcards, mail 4,000, and distribute the rest to friends and colleagues.
