Question

Night Shades Inc. (NSI) manufactures biotech sunglasses. The Variable materials cost is $1.57 per unit, and the variable labor cost is $2 51 per unit. What is the variable cost per unit? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) Suppose NSl incurs fixed costs of $600,000 during a year in which total production is 330,000 units. What are the total costs for the year? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) If the selling price is $11.15 per unit, what is the NSI break-even on a cash flow basis (in units)? (The level of sales in units at which the cash flow is zero). (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) If depreciation is $198,000 per year, what is the accounting break-even point (in units)? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)

Explanation / Answer

1

Calculation of Variable cost per unit :

Variable Material Cost Per unit

$                   1.57

Add: Variable Labor cost per unit

$                   2.51

Variable cost per unit

$                   4.08

2

Calculation of Total cost for the year :

Variable costs = 330000 Units * $4.08

$        1,346,400

Add: Fixed Costs

$            600,000

Total cost for the year

$        1,946,400

3-a

Calculation of Break even Point (Units)

Total Fixed Costs (A)

$            600,000

Selling Price (B)

$                11.15

Variable Cost per unit (C)

$                   4.08

Contribution Per Unit (D) = B-C

$                   7.07

Break even Point (Units) = A/D

                 84,866

3-b

Calculation of Accounting Breakeven Point :

Cash Fixed Costs

$            600,000

Add: Depreciation

198000

Total Fixed Costs (A)

$            798,000

Selling Price (B)

$                11.15

Variable Cost per unit (C)

$                   4.08

Contribution Per Unit (D) = B-C

$                   7.07

Break even Point (Units) = A/D

               112,871
