Problem 2 Six years ago, an 80-kW diesel-electric set cost $160,000. The cost index for this class of equipment six years ago was 187 and is now 194. The plant engineering staff was considering a 120-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant that would have cost $211,707. Based on the information above the plant engineering staff is considering a 100 kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant. Assume we want to add a which (when isolated and estimated separately) currently costs $13,000. Determine the total cost pre-compressor, of the 100-kW unit.

Q/ Machine A has a fixed cost of $40000 per year and a variable cost of S60 per unit. Machine B has an unknown fixed cost, but with this process 200 units can be produced each month at a total variable cost of $2000, If the total costs of the two machines break even at a production rate of 2000 units per year, what is the fixed cost of machine B? Let FCB - fixed cost for B. Variable cost for B = 2000/200 = S10/unit Total costs are equal at 2000 units per year. Then, 40,000 + 60(2000 units) = FCB + 10(2000 units) FCB = $140,000 per year
The projected profit of a hi-tech recording disks retailer is Birr 200,000 for the current year based on sale volume of 200,000 units. The company has been selling the disks for $16 each; variable costs consist of the Birr 10 purchase price and Birr 2 handling cost. The retailer’s annual costs are Birr 600,000. Required: a. Calculate the breakeven point for the current year in units. b. What will be the company’s profit for the current year if there is a 10% increase in projected unit sales volume? c. Management is planning for the coming year when it expects that the unit purchase price of the disks will increase by 30%. What volume of dollar sales must the retailer achieve in the coming year to maintain the current year’s profit if the selling price remains constant at Birr 16
