Applying Cost Accounting Concepts to analyze and Estimate costs

1. Analyze the data and your results. Explain your reasons for supporting or rejecting your cost equation. Show all calculations.
There are a variety of delivery services that each company provides. Management is seeking the volume of a specific delivery that generates a pre-tax amount of $11,000 per month in operating profit. Overhead costs are estimated at $9,900 monthly for fixed costs and $12 for each delivery for variable expenses. The company should use regression analysis to evaluate its data. The monthly overhead is $26,501+ $10.70 per delivery based on the analysis of the volume of deliveries that would generate $11,000 per month in operating profits prior to taxes. If the company charges $22 for each delivery and the variable cost is $12 for each delivery, the contribution margin is $10. The contribution margin to calculate the number of deliveries
required to generate $11,000 in operating profits: ●
Number of deliveries = Operating profit / Contribution margin
●
Number of deliveries = $11,000 / $10
●
Number of deliveries = 1,100 The company would need to have 1,100 monthly deliveries in order to generate the pre-
taxed amount of $11,000 in operating profits.
