A factory engaged in the fabrication of an automobile part with a production capacity of 700,000 units per year is only operating at 62% of capacity due to unavailability of the necessary foreign currency to fiancé the importation of their raw materials. The annual income is P430,000, annual fixed costs are P190,000 and variable costs are PO.348 per unit. What is the breakeven point?

The ABC company is considering constructing a plant to manufacture a proposed new product. The land costs P15,000,000, the building costs P30,000,000, the equipment costs P12,500,000, and P5,000,000 working capital is required. At the end of 12 years, the land can be sold for P25,000,000, the building for P12,000,000, the equipment forP250,000 and all of the working capital recovered. The annual disbursements for labor, materials, and all other expenses are estimated to cost P23,750,000. If the company requires a minimum return of 25%, what should be the minimum annual sales for 12 years to justify the investment?
Problem 8: A firm producing poultry feed finds that a new production method needs to purchase an equipment costing P 26,000 and the cost of each feed is P 792 and the management plans to charge P. 1,280 per unit for the feed. How many units of feeds must be sold for the firm to break even?
an equipment costing P 270,000 has an estimated scrap value of P 25000 at the end of its economic life of 11 years. Using Double-Declining Balance Method, what is the book value after 7 years?
The year-end operating costs of a certain machine are estimated to be 12,000 the first year and to increase by 2,500 each year during its 4-year life. A.) Is the gradient increasing or decreasing?B.) If capital is worth 12% determine the equivalent uniform year-end costs.
A light manufacturing firm has set up a project for develop- ing a new machine for one of its production lines. The most likely estimated cost of the project itself is $1,000,000, but the most optimistic estimate is $900,000 while the pessimists predict a project cost of $1,200,000. The real problem is that even if the project costs are within those limits, if the project itself plus its implementation costs exceed $1,425,000, the project will not meet the firm’s NPV hurdle. There are four cost categories involved in adding the prospective new machine to the production line: (1) engineering labor cost, (2) nonengineering labor cost, (3) assorted material cost, and (4) production line downtime cost. The engineering labor requirement has been estimated to be 600 hours, plus or minus 15 percent at a cost of $80 per hour. The nonengineering labor requirement is esti- mated to be 1,500 hours, but could be as low as 1,200 hours or as high as 2,200 hours at a cost of $35 per hour. Assorted…
