4) A company produces a chemical at a rate of 1000 tons/year with a planned sale price of 0.8 TL / kg. The fixed cost is 60000 TL/year and direct production is 5.5 x 106 TL/year at full capacity. Determine the direct product cost per unit product (TL /kg). Find the breakeven capacity of the company for this product. Draw breakeven chart according to determined results in (ii). Calculate the new breakeven point if the price of the product decreased to 0.5 TL/kg.
The direct labor cost and direct material cost of a certain product is P300 and P400 per unit, respectively. Fixed charges are P100,000 per month and other variable cost are P100 per unit. If the product is sold for P1200 per unit, how many units must be produced and sold to break even?
As a manager have been asked to estimate the total cost of producing 40 engines in your company. Current engines have an output of 135-hp per engine. 7 years ago, a similar 180-hp engine cost was 4450 KD. Beside that due to extreme competition in the industry, the cost of an engine has decreased with 9% only for 3 intervals of time throughout this period. Total cost consists of engine cost, direct labor cost and other labor-related costs. Pertinent data are as follows: Direct labor cost per hour 20 KD per hour Factory overhead 150% of direct labor Packing costs 80% of direct labor Maintenance costs 10% of engine cost Cost-capacity factor 0.75 Past experience has shown that an 85% learning curve applies to the labor required producing these engines. Maintenance cost will be paid only once at the beginning of the second year. Use the estimated time to complete the 40th engine for the purpose of estimating the direct labor cost. The time to complete the first engine has been estimated to…
A company estimates it will sell 5000 products in a year. I twould like to make some number N of equally spaced orders of size x units per order so that the total inventory cost (which includes prdering and storage) is minimized. a) If there is a 420 per order fixed cost plus a cost of $9 per unit ordered, and the storage cost per year is $10, find the number of orders and the numbers of units per order so that the goal of minimizing inventory costs is achieved. b) Suppose that the ordering cost doubles to $18 per unit ordered,and that no other chnage is made. Decide whether this should or should not change the solutuon that you foind in part (a), and justify your answer.

The making of rivet holes in structural steel members can be done by 2 methods. The first method consists of laying out the position of the holes in the members and using a drill press costing P100k. The machinist is paid P60 per hour and he can drill 80 holes per hour. The second method makes use of a multiple-punch machine costing P80k. The punch operator is paid P40 an hour and he can punch out 1 hole for 3 seconds. This method also requires an expense of P1.25 per hole to set the machine. How many hours will it take the Multiple Punch Machine to finish the 10k holes. a. 92 b. 8.3 c. 0.92 d. 8.9

b) A manufacturing contractor has produced a proposal to deliver 400 units at a price based on the time of 240 hrs which it took to make the first 100 units (2.4 hrs per unit). However, productivity studies have shown that it is possible to achieve a progress ratio of 80% for this type of product. Based on this knowledge how would you advise the contractor to revise the estimated cost?
