300

Using the high-low method, determine the fixed and variable cost per unit.

Units    10       30          15

Cost    $200    $340       $255

$7 variable cost per unit

(340-200) / (30-10) = $7

$130 Fixed cost

Fixed = 200 - ($7*10) = $130

Step Cost

Find the break even point in units with the following information: 

Fixed costs - 19,500

Sales Price - $20

Variable cost per Unit - $5

1,300 Units.

Fixed Costs/Contribution Margin per unit = Breakeven Units

19,500/(20-5) = 1,300 units

Computer COGS:

Finished Goods Beginning Inv: 100,000

WIP Beginning Inv: 50,000

WIP Ending Inve: 20,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured: 70,000

Finished Goods Ending Inv: 80,000

COGS = 90,000

FG Begin    100,000

+ COGM       70,000

Cost of goods available for sale = 170,000

- FG Ending  80,000

COGS = 90,000

We used our predetermined overhead rate and applied $10,000 of overhead to a project. We had actual overhead costs of $9,000 this period. Were we over- or under-applied in overhead? 

Over-applied

Debit Factory Overhead   1,000

If we want a target income of $100,000 and have fixed costs of $30,000, variable cost per unit of $10, and selling price of $50, how many sales in dollars do we need?

$162,500 sales

Target Sales Dollars = (Fixed Cost + Target Income) / Contribution Margin Ratio

($30,000 + $100,000) / 80% = $162,500

CM Ratio = CMper unit/ Sales Price = 40/50

CM per Unit = Sales Price - VC per Unit = 50-10
