Horngren's Cost Accounting: A Managerial Emphasis (16th Edition)
- Basu Company produces two types of sleds for playing in the snow: basic sled and aerosled. The projected income for the coming year, segmented by product line, follows: The selling prices are 30 for the basic sled and 60 for the aerosled. (Round break-even packages and break-even units to the nearest whole unit.) Required: 1. Compute the number of units of each product that must be sold for Basu to break even. 2. Assume that the marketing manager changes the sales mix of the two products so that the ratio is five basic sleds to three aerosleds. Repeat Requirement 1. 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Refer to the original data. Suppose that Basu can increase the sales of aerosleds with increased advertising. The extra advertising would cost an additional 195,000, and some of the potential purchasers of basic sleds would switch to aerosleds. In total, sales of aerosleds would increase by 12,000 units, and sales of basic sleds would decrease by 5,000 units. Would Basu be better off with this strategy?arrow_forward2. vandolf, inc. produces and sells two products: a ceiling fan and a table fan. vandolf plans to sell 30,000 ceiling fans and 70,000 table fan in the coming year. product price and cost information includes: ceiling fan table fan price p 60 p 15 unit variable cost 12 7 direct fixed cost p 23,600 p 45,000 common fixed selling and administrative expenses total p 85,000. required: a. what is the sales mix estimated for next year (calculated to the lowest whole number for each product)? b. using the sales mix from the first requirement, form a package of ceiling fans and table fans. how many ceiling fans and table fans are sold at break-even? c. prepare a contribution-margin based income statement for vandolf,inc., based on the unit sales calculated in requirement in b. d. what if vandolf, inc., wanted to earn operating income equal to p 14,400? calculate the number of ceiling fans and table fans that must be sold to earn this level of operating income.

- Subject management accoun Please help solve all.. please A company is planning to purchase 90,800 units of a particular item in the year ahead. The item is purchased in boxes each containing 10units of the item, at a price of $200 per box. A safety inventory of 250 boxes is kept. Besides, the company estimates to be charged the transporation cost of $15 per order. It should be assumed that ordering costs change in proportion to the number of orders place. The cost of holding an item in inventory for a year (including insurance, interest and space costs) is 15% of the purchase price. The cost of placing and receiving orders is to be estimated from cost data collected relating to similar orders, where costs of $5,910 were incurred on 30 orders. It should be assumed that ordering costs change in proportion to the number of orders placed. 2% should be added to the above ordering costs to allow for inflation.
