After negotiating with key parties, CableVision has made the following agreements: It will offer Mirada residents a basic set of 25 cable television stations at a rate of $32.49 per month e CableVision will pay the city $110,000 per month plus $3.50 per cable subscriber per month to maintain the physical facilities. * CableVision will actually pay another company an annual fixed fee of $790,000 plus $7.50 per cable subscriber per month to broadcast the 25 channels CableVision estimates that operating costs for billing, program news mailings, etc. will be $120,000 per month plus 9% of monthly revenue. CableVision has several questions about its monthly revenues, costs, and profits in 2016.

Explanation / Answer

Revenue           21000*$32.49                            =          $682290

           

Variable Expenses

Charges to maintain the physical facilities           =          $73500

Charges for Broadcasting 25 Channels               =          $157500

Operating Costs                                                =          $61406

Total Variable Cost                                            =          $292406

Contribution                                                      =          $389884

Let us assume that the Fixed Operating Cost as X then the fixed Operating cost to earn $26000 per month will be:

Contribution      =          Profit +Fixed Cost

$389884            =          $26000+$110000+$65833+X

X                      =          $389884-$201833

                        =          $188051

Therefore the Fixed Operating Cost will be: $188051
