hello, please give more emphasis on points a,b,c, and d Spark Ltd has two divisions, assembly and electrical. The assembly division transfers partiallycompleted components to the electrical division at a predetermined transfer price. The assemblydivision’s standard variable production cost per unit is $550. This division has spare capacity, and itcould sell all its components to outside buyers at $680 per unit in a perfectly competitive market.Required:a) Determine a transfer price using the general rule.b) How would the transfer price change if the assembly division had no spare capacity? c) What transfer price would you recommend if there was no outside market for the transferredcomponent and the assembly division had spare capacity? d) Explain how negotiation between the supplying and buying units may be used to set transferprices. How does this relate to the general transfer pricing rule?

how can the changes below affect Mirabel’s overall cost structure. For those changes that are controllable, make a recommendation considering the uncontrollable cost changes. Be certain to consider not only the company’s break-even point, but also the desired margin of safety. If Mirabel purchases the new equipment for $1,200,000, it will increase fixed costs by 10% but will decrease the variable cost per unit for all 3 models by 5%. If Mirabel invests the additional $650,000 in fixed marketing expenses, sales of the Model 301 are expected to increase by 8%. If the projection is that sales will increase by 10% in the coming year. The sales volume remains fixed but there is a 5% increase in variable expenses (materials cost) for the Model 101 and 301, and a 10% increase in variable expenses for Model 201.
Sloan Corporation has the following estimates for its new gear assembly product: Price per unit = $1,220 Variable cost per unit = $380 Fixed costs = $3.75 million Quantity = 90,000 units Suppose the company believes all its estimates are accurate only to within +/- 15%.

E4 Location Breakeven Analysis (also known as cost-volume analysis) is a technique used to make an economic comparison of location alternatives. The fixed and variable costs of three potential locations are listed below: LOCATION FIXDED COST PER ANNUM VARIABLE COST PER UNIT A 40 000 80 B 70 000 65 C 120 000 3 The expected selling price of the product is R 150.00.
