a.
To calculate: The economic order quantity for Fisk corp.
Introduction:
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ):
The economic order quantity is the ideal quantity produced by a firm that minimizes the total variable and fixed costs of production. It is also known as optimum lot size.
b.
To calculate: The number of orders placed during the year for Fisk corp.
Introduction:
Number of Orders Placed:
The number of orders placed is the number of units sold during the year by the firm. It is the demand by the target customers.
c.
To calculate:The average inventory for Fisk corp.
Introduction:
Average inventory:
Average inventory is the value of inventory held with the firm for more than a specific time period. It can be calculated as the value of inventory for both the time periods divided by the number of time periods.
d.
To calculate:The total cost of ordering and the carrying cost of inventory for Fisk corp.
Introduction:
Total cost:
Total cost is the cost of all the units produced by the company. It includes all the variable and fixed costs. It is the sum of the variable and fixed costs incurred by the firm.

- Faldo Company produces a single product. The projected income statement for the coming year, based on sales of 200,000 units, is as follows: Required: 1. Compute the unit contribution margin and the units that must be sold to break even. Suppose that 30,000 units are sold above the break-even point. What is the profit? 2. Compute the contribution margin ratio and the break-even point in dollars. Suppose that revenues are 200,000 greater than expected. What would the total profit be? 3. Compute the margin of safety in sales revenue. 4. Compute the operating leverage. Compute the new profit level if sales are 20 percent higher than expected. 5. How many units must be sold to earn a profit equal to 10 percent of sales? 6. Assume the income tax rate is 40 percent. How many units must be sold to earn an after-tax profit of 180,000?arrow_forwardPietro expects to produce 50,000 units and sell 49,300 units. Beginning inventory of finished goods is 42,500, and ending inventory of finished goods is expected to be 34,000. Required: 1. Prepare a statement of cost of goods sold in good form. 2. What if the beginning inventory of finished goods decreased by 5,000? What would be the effect on the cost of goods sold?arrow_forwardKlamath Company produces a single product. The projected income statement for the coming year is as follows: Required: 1. Compute the unit contribution margin and the units that must be sold to break even. 2. Suppose 10,000 units are sold above break-even. What is the operating income? 3. Compute the contribution margin ratio. Use the contribution margin ratio to compute the break-even point in sales revenue. (Note: Round the contribution margin ratio to four decimal places, and round the sales revenue to the nearest dollar.) Suppose that revenues are 200,000 more than expected for the coming year. What would the total operating income be?arrow_forward

- Ekor bakery sells doughnut. The annual demand is 10,000 per year. The ordering cost is $21, and holding cost is $3. If the demand exceeds the inventory, Ekor has two types of costs associated with the backorder. The loss of goodwill is $O.1 per unit short, and a "bookkeeping" cost of $0.3 per unit short per year. Calculate: economic order quantity, maximum acceptable inventory, cycle time, and minimal total annual average cost. Suppose the doughnuts are sold in packages of 150 units each. How many packages should sell?
