Concept Introduction:

Variable cost and fixed costs:

Variable costs: The variable costs can be defined as the cost that change directly with the change in the level of output. They are directly related with the level of output. These costs are termed relevant costs as well.

Fixed costs: The fixed costs can be defined as the cost that do not change directly with the change in the level of output. They are not related with the level of output. These costs are termed irrelevant costs generally.

To compute:

The expected −

  1. Variable cost
  2. Fixed cost
For the expected units to be sold next year

Answer to Problem 15E

Solution:

The expected −

  1. Variable cost for the expected units to be sold next year = $ 12,000,000
  2. Fixed cost for the expected units to be sold next year = $ 3,750,000

Explanation of Solution

The expected variable costs and fixed costs are calculated as under −

  1. Variable cost for the expected units to be sold next year -
Given,
  • The expected total sales revenue = $ 17,000,000
  • Expected units to be sold = 200,000 units
  • Contribution margin per unit = $ 25 per unit
  • Expected Pre-tax income for the next year = $ 1,250,000
The sales price per unit will be calculated as under −

  Sales price per unit =Expected sales revenueExpected units to be soldSales price per unit =$17,000,000200,000 units Sales price per unit =$ 85 per unit

The expected sales price per unit = $ 85.
Now, variable cost per unit will be calculated as under −

  Variable cost per unit = Sales price per unit  Contribution margin per unitVariable cost per unit = $ 85  $ 25Variable cost per unit = $ 60 per unit

The total expected variable costs are calculated as under −

  Total variable cost = Variable cost per unit X Expected units to be soldTotal variable cost = $ 60 per unit X 200,000 unitsTotal variable cost = $12,000,000

The total expected variable costs = $ 12,000,000.
 2 Fixed cost for the expected units to be sold next year −

The total expected fixed costs will be calculated as under −
Given,

  • Expected units to be sold = 200,000 units
  • Contribution margin per unit = $ 25 per unit
  • Expected Pre-tax income for the next year = $ 1,250,000
  • Total expected variable costs = $ 12,000,000
First, total contribution margin will be calculated as −
  Total contribution margin = Contribution margin per unit X Expected units to be soldTotal contribution margin = $ 25 per unit X 200,000 unitsTotal contribution margin = $ 5,000,000

Now, fixed costs will be calculated as −
  Fixed costs = Total contribution marginExpected Pretax income for the next yearFixed costs = $ 5,000,000$1,250,000Fixed costs = $ 3,750,000

The expected fixed costs for the next year = $ 3,750,000

Conclusion

Thus, the expected fixed costs and expected variable costs have been calculated for the next year.

On December 31, 2018, Blackpink Company, a financing institution lent ₱15,000,000 to YG Corp.  due 3 years after. The loan is supported by an 12% note receivable. Based on the company’s  initial estimates the present value of the 12 months expected credit loss (ECL) discounted at 10%  is at 2,000,000. The probability of default (PD) is at 7%.  Blackpink Company was able to collect interest as it became due at the end of 2019. There was no  evidence of significant increase in credit risk by the end 2019 and that the receivable is  determined to have “low credit risk”. There were no changes in its initial estimate of the 12  months expected credit loss either.  By the end of 2020, Blackpink Company was able to collect interest as it became due. Based on  available forward-looking information (determinable without undue cost or effort), however, there  is evidence that there was a significant increase in credit risk by the end of 2020. Blackpink  Company therefore had to change its basis…
