17. Assume a company produces one product that sells for P55, has variable cost per unit of P35, and has fixed costs of P100,000. How many units must the company sell to earn a target profit of P50,000? 18. Given the same facts as in question 17 above, if the company exactly meets its target profit, what will be its margin of safety in sales revenue? P137,500 P150,000 P127,500 P110,000
3) If demand for 2022 is instead 2,500 units should the company pay to increase their capacity? Why? Please explain your calculations and reference to the chart in Figure 1. Assume units are sold at the normal price. Please mention the concept of incremental profits. Hint: If you expand capacity, you will have to pay additional fixed costs of $25,000. Remember that fixed costs are fixed within the relevant range. If you expand capacity then you are outside this range. If you expand capacity then you can make revenue on 500 additional units at the normal price and would pay variable costs on 500 additional units. Please consider the incremental profit or loss of expanding capacity. The incremental profit is the increase in revenues minus the increase in costs of adding 500 more units. If the incremental profit of expanding capacity is positive then you should do so.

The Warner Company sells its only product for P30 and the variable costs amount to P21 per unit. Fixed cost for each year is P270,000. Questions: 1.

What will be the projected sales in pesos with such desired profits of P90,000? 3. If instead, the desired profit is 5% of sales, how many units must be sold to achieve such?

REQUIRED Study the information given below and answer the following questions independently: 3.1 Use the contribution margin ratio to calculate the sales value required to break even. 3.2 Calculate the margin of safety (as a percentage). 3.3 Determine the sales volume required to achieve double the forecast operating profit for 2024. 3.4 Suppose SolarCor Ltd is considering a R50 per unit decrease in the selling price of the product, with the expectation that this would increase the annual sales volume by 25%. Calculate the total Contribution Margin and Operating Profit/Loss. 3.5 Determine the selling price per unit (expressed to the nearest cent) that would enable SolarCor Ltd to break even, if all 30 000 units are produced and sold. INFORMATION SolarCor Ltd produces a single product. The following forecasts for 2024 are available: The budgeted sales are 30 000 units at R800 per unit. Manufacturing costs include direct materials at R160 per unit, direct labour at R100 per unit,…
Many times the selling price of a product p, is related to demand D, according to the relationship p=a - bD. However, a company has found that the price of their product can be related to demand (in units per year) according to the following equation: p=108.5 – 2.08D⁰.75. In addition, there is a fixed cost of P50,000 per year and the variable cost tomanufacture the product is P68 per unit. What is the level of demand which maximizes sales? What is the maximum sales? What level of demand maximizes profit? What is the maximum profit? What are the breakeven quantities of this product if p=678.39-1.08D?
