QUESTION 1

 

Sunland Copy & Printing wants to predict copy machine repair expense at different levels of copying activity (number of copies made). The following data have been gathered:

Copy Machine
Month Repair Expense Copies Made
May $21,260 302,000
June 35,740 560,000
July 56,300 886,000
August 48,460 772,000
September 25,200 376,000

Determine the fixed and variable components of repair expense using the high-low method. Use copies made as the measure of activity. (Round variable component per copy to 2 decimal places, e.g. 0.15.)

Variable Component $enter a dollar amount per copy rounded to 2 decimal places per copy
Fixed Component $enter a dollar amount per month rounded to 0 decimal places per month

Break-even sales $enter break-even sales in dollars rounded to 0 decimal places
Expected sales $enter expected sales in dollars rounded to 0 decimal places
Margin of safety $enter margin of safety in dollars rounded to 0 decimal places

 

QUESTION 4

 

Uli Manufacturing produces snow shovels. The selling price per snow shovel is $30.00. There is no beginning inventory.

Costs involved in production are:
Direct material $5.00
Direct labor 4.00
Variable manufacturing overhead 4.00
Total variable manufacturing costs per unit $13.00
Fixed manufacturing overhead per year $177,840

In addition, the company has fixed selling and administrative costs of $172,200 per year.

During the year, Uli produces 49,400 snow shovels and sells 44,320 snow shovels.
