Use the following information to complete Short Exercises S21-10through S21-15.
Funday Park competes with Cool World by providing a variety of rides. Funday Park sells tickets at $70 per person as a one-day entrance fee. Variable costs are $42 per person, and fixed costs are $170,800 per month.
S21-12 Applying sensitivity analysis of changing sales price and variable cost
Learning Objective 4
Using the Funday Park information presented, do the following tasks.
Requirements
1. Suppose Funday Park cuts its ticket price from $70 to $56 to increase the number of tickets sold. Compute the new breakeven point in tickets and in sales dollars.
2. Ignore the information in Requirement 1. Instead, assume that Funday Park increases the variable cost from $42 to $56 per ticket Compute the new breakeven point in tickets and in sales dollars.

- c03 Use target costing to analyze data (Learning Objective 2) See the Winter Sports Inc. data from S8-2. Assume that Winter Sports' reputation has diminished and other resorts in the vicinity are charging only $65 per lift ticket. Winter Sports has become a price-taker and won't be able to charge more than its competitors. At the market price, Winter Sports' managers believe they will still serve 750,000 skiers and snowboarders each season. 1. If Winter Sports can't reduce its costs, what profit will it earn? State your answer in dollars and as a percent of assets. Will investors be happy with the profit level? Show your analysis. 2. Assume that Winter Sports has found ways to cut its fixed costs to $30 million. What is its new target variable cost per skier/snowboarder? Assume investors want to earn a 15% return on assets. Compare this to the current variable cost per skier/ snowboarder.

Dinner cruise tickets sell for $50 per passenger. FunTime Cruiseline's variable cost of providing the dinner is $30 per passenger, and the fixed cost of operating the vessels (depreciation, salaries, docking fees, and other expenses) is $210,000 per month. The company's rel- evant range extends to 20,000 monthly passengers.arrow_forward

There is a tab that includes a product, customer and order log tables.arrow_forwardUsing Excel for cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis Download an Excel temp/ate for this problem online in MyAccountingLab or at http://www.pearsonhigheredcom/Horngren. The Oceanside Garden Nursery buys flowering plants in tour-inch pots for $1.00 each and sells them for $2.50 each. Management budgets monthly fixed costs of $2,100 for sales volumes between 0 and 5,000 plants. Requirements Use the contribution margin approach to compute the company’s monthly breakeven point in units. Use the contribution margin ratio approach to compute the breakeven point in sales dollars. Use the contribution margin approach to compute the monthly sales level (in units) required to earn a target operating income of $5,000. Prepare a graph of the company’s CVP relationships. Include the sales revenue line, the fixed cost line, and the total cost line. Create a chart title and label the axes.arrow_forward
- Answer all <>arrow_forwardRefer to Cornerstone Exercise 3.4 for data on Dohini Manufacturing Companys purchasing cost and number of purchase orders. The controller for Dohini Manufacturing ran regression on the data, and the coefficients shown by the regression program are: Required: 1. Construct the cost formula for the purchasing activity showing the fixed cost and the variable rate. 2. If Dohini Manufacturing Company estimates that next month will have 430 purchase orders, what is the total estimated purchasing cost for that month? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) 3. What if Dohini Manufacturing wants to estimate purchasing cost for the coming year and expects 5,340 purchase orders? What will estimated total purchasing cost be? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) What is the total fixed purchasing cost? Why doesnt it equal the fixed cost calculated in Requirement 1?arrow_forwardSpecifically, Mr. Schaefer wants you to do the following: PART 1. Prepare a cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis of the proposal's financial implications. 1. Specifically, prepare an analysis that includes the projected revenue, variable costs, and fixed costs for enrollment levels of 20, 25, 30 and 37 students using the monthly projections in Attachment A of the case. 2. Then, compute the weighted average contribution margin (CM) per student (computed as the total CM divided by the number of students enrolled) and 3. The number of students that need to enroll at each of the four levels of enrollment for the center to break even. For this analysis, I have provided an Excel template in which I have already sorted variable and fixed costs: I have included the raw data. Note: Your enrollment information has already been weighted so you will not need to calculate weights for your weighted average CM.arrow_forward
