An airline studied the data from their passenger records and noted that their customers turn up only about 95% of the time. A flight can accommodate 40 passengers and each seat costs 4,000 Php. Suppose each passenger books a ticket independently and the airline decides to sell 42 tickets for the flight. If more than 40 show up for the flight , then the extra passengers will be compensated PhP10,000 for rebooking and other expenses. 5. If Profit = Ticket sales-Compensation of Bumped passenger(s). What is the profit if 42 customers show up?
The Woody Company manufactures slippers and sells them at $10 a pair. Variable manufacturing costs are $4.50 a pair, and allocated fixed manufacturing costs are $1.50 a pair. It has enough idle capacity available to accept a one-time-only special order of 20,000 pairs of slippers at $6 a pair. Woody will not incur any marketing costs as a result of the special order. What would the effect on operating income be if the special order could be accepted without affecting normal sales? (a) $0, (b) $30,000 increase, (c) $90,000 increase, (d) $120,000 increase
B). On the average, a company has 12 weeks of work-in-process and annual cost of goods sold of $40 million.

If the work-in-process could be reduced to 5 weeks and the annual cost of carrying inventory was 20% of the inventory value, what would be the annual saving?

A company had an average inventory last year of $203,000 and its inventory turnover was 6. If sales volume and unit cost remain the same this year as last and inventory turnover is 8 this year, what will average inventory have to be during the current year?
Cassie Company manufactures a line of deluxe office fixtures. The annual demand for its miniature oak file is estimated to be 5,000 units. The annual cost of carrying one unit inventory is P10, and the cost to initiate a production run is P1,000. There are no miniature oak files on hand, and Cassie has scheduled four equal production runs of the miniature oak file for the coming year, the first of which is to be run immediately. Cassie has 250 business days per year. Assume that sales occur uniformly throughout the year and the production is instantaneous. If cassie does not maintain a safety stock, the estimated total carrying costs for the office fixtures for the coming year based on the current schedule is
A certain medical device will result in an estimated $15,000 reduction in hospital labor expenses during its first year of operation. Labor expenses (and thus savings) are projected to increase at a rate of 7% per year after the first year. Additional operating expenses for the device (maintenance, electric power, etc.) are $3,500 annually, and they increase by $250 per year there after (i.e., $3,750 in year two and so on). It is anticipated that the device will last for 10 years and will have no market value at that time. If theMARR is 10 % per year, how much can the hospital afford to pay for this device? Use an Excel spreadsheet in your solution.
Suppose the city introduces a disposal tax and any unsold games must now be disposed of at a cost of €1 each. What is the company’s expected profit if it produces 1800 board games?
Next week, Super Discount Airlines has a flight from New York to Los Angeles that will be booked to capacity. The airline knows from history that an average of 25 customers (with a standard deviation of 15) cancel their reservation or do not show for the flight. Revenue from a ticket on the flight is $125. If the flight is overbooked, the airline has a policy of getting the customer on the next available flight and giving the person a free round-trip ticket on a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $250. Super Discount considers the cost of flying the plane from New York to Los Angeles a sunk cost. By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight? Note: Use Excel's NORM.S.INV() function to find the z value. Round z value to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Trumps Inc. has developed a chew-proof dog bed-the Tuff Pup. Fixed costs are P 204,000 per year. The average price for the Tuff-Pup is P 36, and the average variable cost is P 22 per unit. Currently, Trumps produces and sells 20,000 Tuff-Pups annually. Required: How many Tuff-Pups must be sold to break-even? If Trumps wants to earn P95,000 in profit, how many Tuff-Pups must be sold? Prepare a variable-costing income statement to verify your answer. Suppose that Trumps would like to lower the break-even units to 12,000. The company does not believe that the price or fixed cost can be changed. Calculate the new unit variable cost that would result in break-even units of 12,000 units. (Round to the nearest cent). What is Trumps current contribution margin and operating income? Calculate the degree of operating leverage (round your answer to four decimal places.) If sales increased by 10% next year, what would the present change in operating income be?
