ABC Ltd. Wants to choose the best location for its new aluminum plant. The manager ofproductions and operations has three possible locations to choose from. His assistantrecommends that he use break-even analysis location technique to help determine whichlocation is best based on costs. Assuming: Total fixed cost = 80,000 Price per unit= 20 AVC (Average variable cost) = 40 Break-even point= Total fixed cost / (AVC-Price per unit) Break-even point = 80,000/ (40-20) Break-even point = 4,000 1) Demonstrate to the OM manager how to go about choosing the best location using thenumerical example designed above.

ABC Ltd. Wants to choose the best location for its new aluminum plant. The manager ofproductions and operations has three possible locations to choose from. His assistantrecommends that he use break-even analysis location technique to help determine whichlocation is best based on costs. . If total fixed cost = 40000 AVC = 20 Price per unit = 10 Break even point = 40000 / 20 - 10= 4000 So at the 4000 units of production, there will be no profit and loss as the total revenue is equal to the total cost. Demonstrate to the OM manager how to go about choosing the best location using thenumerical example you designed above.
Peter Billington Stereo, Inc., supplies car radios to auto manufacturers a nd is going to open a new plant. The company is undecided between Detroit and Dallas as the site. The fixed costs in Dallas are lower due to cheaper land costs, but the variable costs in Dallas are higher because shipping distances would increase. Given the following costs: a) Perform an analysis of the volume over which each location is preferable.b) How does your answer change if Dallas's fixed costs increase by 10%?
Q4) A manufacturing company preparing to build a new plant is considering three potential locations for it. The fixed and variable costs for the three alternative locations are presented below.
