XYZ Company produces two models of wood chairs, A and B. The selling price per unit and the variable manufacturing cost per unit for model A are $240 and $140 respectively. The selling price per unit and the variable manufacturing cost per unit for model B are $320 and $152 respectively. The variable selling expense per unit for models A and B are $40 per unit and $48 per unit respectively. Assume that total fixed expenses are $158,400 per month and the expected monthly sales for models A and B are 7,200 units and 1,800 units respectively. If the sales mix and sales units are as expected, the break-even in sales ($) is: (round figures to the nearest number) Select one:

Patz Company produces two types of machine parts: Part A and Part B, with unit contribution margins of 300 and 600, respectively. Assume initially that Patz can sell all that is produced of either component. Part A requires two hours of assembly, and B requires five hours of assembly. The firm has 300 assembly hours per week. Required: 1. Express the objective of maximizing the total contribution margin subject to the assembly-hour constraint. 2. Identify the optimal amount that should be produced of each machine part and the total contribution margin associated with this mix. 3. What if market conditions are such that Patz can sell at most 75 units of Part A and 60 units of Part B? Express the objective function with its associated constraints for this case and identify the optimal mix and its associated total contribution margin.
Polaris Inc. manufactures two types of metal stampings for the automobile industry: door handles and trim kits. Fixed cost equals 146,000. Each door handle sells for 12 and has variable cost of 9; each trim kit sells for 8 and has variable cost of 5. Required: 1. What are the contribution margin per unit and the contribution margin ratio for door handles and for trim kits? 2. If Polaris sells 20,000 door handles and 40,000 trim kits, what is the operating income? 3. How many door handles and how many trim kits must be sold for Polaris to break even? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Assume that Polaris has the opportunity to rearrange its plant to produce only trim kits. If this is done, fixed costs will decrease by 35,000, and 70,000 trim kits can be produced and sold. Is this a good idea? Explain.
Lotts Company produces and sells one product. The selling price is 10, and the unit variable cost is 6. Total fixed cost is 10,000. Required: 1. Prepare a CVP graph with Units Sold as the horizontal axis and Dollars as the vertical axis. Label the break-even point on the horizontal axis. 2. Prepare CVP graphs for each of the following independent scenarios: (a) Fixed cost increases by 5,000, (b) Unit variable cost increases to 7, (c) Unit selling price increases to 12, and (d) Fixed cost increases by 5,000 and unit variable cost is 7.
Salvador Manufacturing builds and sells snowboards, skis and poles. The sales price and variable cost for each follows: Their sales mix is reflected in the ratio 7:3:2. If annual fixed costs shared by the three products are $196,200, how many units of each product will need to be sold in order for Salvador to break even?
Grand Canyon Manufacturing Inc. produces and sells a product with a price of 100 per unit. The following cost data have been prepared for its estimated upper and lower limits of activity: Overhead: Selling and administrative expenses: Required: 1. Classify each cost element as either variable, fixed, or semi-variable. (Hint: Recall that variable expenses must go up in direct proportion to changes in the volume of activity.) 2. Calculate the break-even point in units and dollars. (Hint: First use the high-low method illustrated in Chapter 4 to separate costs into their fixed and variable components.) 3. Prepare a break-even chart. 4. Prepare a contribution income statement, similar in format to the statement appearing on page 540, assuming sales of 5,000 units. 5. Recompute the break-even point in units, assuming that variable costs increase by 20% and fixed costs are reduced by 50,000.
Oat Treats manufactures various types of cereal bars featuring oats. Simmons Cereal Company has approached Oat Treats with a proposal to sell the company its top selling oat cereal bar at a price of $27,500 for 20,000 bars.
