Cost of Production

In economic theory, production costs are the costs incurred by an industrial organization when it engineers a project or provides a service that generates revenue and benefits. Labor costs, raw materials, consumable manufacturing costs, and general overhead sum up, accounting for production costs. Total cost data is calculated by combining total direct costs of materials, labor costs, and total production costs.

XYZ, inc. makes and sells bicycle parts. Last year XYZ sold 5,400 handlebars, generating sales of $110,000. This year they are considering a new pricing strategy with a target profit goal of $15,000. They determined that for every $2 increase to the selling price, a 300 decrease in unit sales was expected. Their total costs were $110,000 with fixed costs accounting for $60,000. This year, XYZ, inc. is considering changing the selling price to $27. Assuming that the demand function is linear, what is the slope of demand? CALCULATED VARIABLES:cm = $11.11vc = $9.26asp = $20.37
The economically destructive price spike of 2007–2008 occurred when spare production capacity fell below 1 mbpd, causing a run-up in oil price from $50 to $145 per barrel. An issue for world oil spare capacity is the internal consumption of OPEC producers. OPEC production has ranged between 30 and 33 mbpd since 2004. Internal use is currently about 25% of total OPEC production, but it is growing by 2% per year. The internal consumption growth is largely for nonelastic end uses such as electricity generation, water treatment, and new buildings. If the current world spare capacity is 2 mbpd and the OPEC total production does not increase beyond 33 mbpd, how many years will it take for the spare capacity to fall below 1 mbpd again?
Acme Manufacturing Co. and Compressors Institute of America, Inc. orally agreed that CIA would custom-manufacture a compressor for Acme at a price of $120,000. After CIA completed the work at a cost of $90,000, Acme notified CIA that the compressor was no longer needed. CIA is holding the compressor and has requested payment from Acme. CIA has been unable to resell the compressor for any price after reasonable attempts. CIA incurred storage fees of $2,000. If Acme refuses to pay CIA and CIA sues Acme, the most CIA will be entitled to recover is: Group of answer choices Nothing, because the contract was verbal only. As much as they want because the CIA has special powers. $120,000. $90,000. $122,000.

Emarpy Appliance produces all kinds of major appliances. Richard Feehan, the president of Emarpy, is concerned about the production policy for the company’s best-selling refrigerator. The demand for this has been relatively constant at about 8,000 units each year. The production capacity for this product is 200 units per day. Each time production starts, it costs the company $120 to move materials into place, reset the assembly line, and clean the equipment. The holding cost of a refrigerator is $50 per year. The current production plan calls for 400 refrigerators to be produced in each production run. Assume there are 250 working days per year. (a) What is the daily demand of this product? (b) If the company were to continue to produce 400 units each time production starts, how many days would production continue? (c) Under the current policy, how many production runs per year would be required? What would the annual setup cost be? (d) If the current policy continues, how many…
"Boehm Compressors uses a lean production assembly line to make its compressors. In one assembly area, the demand is 100 parts per eight-hour day. It uses a container that holds eight parts. It typically takes about six hours to round-trip a container from one work center to the next and back again. It also desires to hold 15 percent safety stock of this part in the system" How many containers should Boehm Compressors be using? Calculate the maximum system inventory for this part If it reduced the number of containers by one, how would this impact the required round-trip time, all else being constant?"
Henleigh Hill, CFO of HH Corp., uses a decentralized company processing center for check collection. She estimates that the total annual cost of collections is currently $300,000. Henleigh is considering switching to a centralized company processing center, but she is worried about the required increase in fixed costs. Use the following assumptions to determine the maximum fixed cost of the centralized company processing center that would make Henleigh indifferent between a decentralized or centralized company processing center. Number of checks processed per year = 450,000 Average face value of checks = $1,000 Collection float for centralized processing = five days Variable processing cost per check for centralized processing = $0.25 Opportunity cost rate = 5 percent
In preparing for the upcoming holiday season, Fresh Toy Company (FTC) designed a new doll called The Dougie that teaches children how to dance. The fixed cost to produce the doll is $100,000. The variable cost, which includes material, labor, and shipping costs, is $29 per doll. During the holiday selling season, FTC will sell the dolls for $37 each. If FTC overproduces the dolls, the excess dolls will be sold in January through a distributor who has agreed to pay FTC $10 per doll. Demand for new toys during the holiday selling season is extremely uncertain. Forecasts are for expected sales of 60,000 dolls with a standard deviation of 15,000. The normal probability distribution is assumed to be a good description of the demand. FTC has tentatively decided to produce 60,000 units (the same as average demand), but it wants to conduct an analysis regarding this production quantity before finalizing the decision. Determine the equation for computing FTC's profit for given values of the…
Table: Taxi Fleet) Metro Cab is considering replacement of its fleet of old taxicabs. To replace its fleet, Metro must spend $150,000 on new taxicabs. The new taxis will incur $5,000 of maintenance expenses per year. Alternatively, Metro could spend $20,000 today to refurbish its taxicabs and incur an additional $20,000 per year of maintenance expenses for the next three years. Metro would then have to buy new taxicabs for $150,000 at the end of three years, leading to lower maintenance expenses of $5,000 per year. Using an interest rate of 10%, the net present value of the first three years is $____. 65,000 37,272.73 195,000 20,000
