- Exercise 5A-3 (Algo) Cost Behavior; High-Low Method [LO5-10] Hoi Chong Transport, Limited, operates a fleet of delivery trucks in Singapore. The company knows if a truck is driven 153,000 kilometers during a year, the average operating cost is 12.5 cents per kilometer. If a truck is driven only 102,000 kilometers during a year, the average operating cost increases to 15.4 cents per kilometer. Required: 1. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable operating cost per kilometer and the annual fixed operating cost associated with the fleet of trucks. 2. Express the variable and fixed costs in the form Y = a + bx. 3. If a truck were driven 127,000 kilometers during a year, what total operating cost would you expect to be incurred? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.

Average contribution margin ratio. b. Composite breakeven point in units and in pesos. c. Allocation of composite breakeven point in units. d. Assuming the company increases its fixed costs and expenses by P140,800, how many units of Bangus and Tupig should be sold at breakeven point? e. Refer to the original data, assuming the sales mix between Bangus and Tupig is 500 units for Bangus and 300 units for Tupig, what is the new combined breakeven point in units and in pesos? f. Consider the original data, except that Pangasinan Company based its sales mix in units. Determine the following: i. Average UCM. ii. Composite BEP in units and in pesos.arrow_forward3arrow_forward

- Speedy Parcel Service operates a fleet of delivery trucks in a large metropolitan area. A careful study by the company's cost analyst has determined that if a truck is driven 120,000 miles during a year, the average operating cost is 11.6 cents per mile. If a truck is driven only 80,000 miles during a year, the average operating cost increases to 13.6 cents per mile. Required: 1. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable and fixed cost elements of the annual cost of truck operation. 2. Express the variable and fixed costs in the form Y = a + bX. 3. If a truck were driven 100,000 miles during a year, what total cost would you expect to be incurred?arrow_forwardSchylar Pharmaceuticals, Inc., plans to sell 130,000 units of antibiotic at an average price of 22 each in the coming year. Total variable costs equal 1,086,800. Total fixed costs equal 8,000,000. (Round all ratios to four significant digits, and round all dollar amounts to the nearest dollar.) Required: 1. What is the contribution margin per unit? What is the contribution margin ratio? 2. Calculate the sales revenue needed to break even. 3. Calculate the sales revenue needed to achieve a target profit of 245,000. 4. What if the average price per unit increased to 23.50? Recalculate: a. Contribution margin per unit b. Contribution margin ratio (rounded to four decimal places) c. Sales revenue needed to break even d.

The projected income statement for the coming year follows: Required: 1. Compute the contribution margin ratio for the mailboxes. 2. How much revenue must Elgart earn in order to break even? 3. What is the effect on the contribution margin ratio if the unit selling price and unit variable cost each increase by 15%? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Suppose that management has decided to give a 4% commission on all sales. The projected income statement does not reflect this commission. Recompute the contribution margin ratio, assuming that the commission will be paid. What effect does this have on the break-even point? 5. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION If the commission is paid as described in Requirement 4, management expects sales revenues to increase by 80,000. How will this affect operating leverage? Is it a sound decision to implement the commission? Support your answer with appropriate computations.arrow_forward
