Q4: Normal capacity of the Fritz company is 18000 units and the unit sales price is Rs. 2.50. Costs are:

Rs.

Variable per unit Fixed

Direct materials 0.700 -

Direct Labor 0.800 -

Factory overheads 0.150 3000

Non-manufacturing cost 0.025 1290

Break-even point in rupees And in units are respectively.

a) Rs. 11,000 and 4400 units.

b) Rs. 14,000 and 5600 units.

c) Rs. 12,000 and 4800 units.

d) Rs. 13,000 and 5200 units.

Answer:

Fixed cost = 3000 + 1290 = Rs.4290

Variable cost per unit = 0.700 + 0.800 + 0.150 + 0.025 = Rs. 1.675

Selling price per unit = Rs. 2.50

CM ratio = 2.50 – 1.675 = Rs. 0.825.

CM ratio = (2.50 – 1.675)/2.50

CM ratio = 33%.

Breakeven units = 4290/2.50 – 1.675 = 5200 units.

Breakeven sales value = 4290/0.33 = Rs. 13000.

Q5: In an automobile manufacturing facility, the management has brought down the cost of ordering
of automotive components from Rs. 500 to Rs. 50 through the introduction of electronic ordering. The
annual demand of cars is 15,000 units. Inventory carrying costs of automobile components is Rs. 20
per unit per year. The inventory turnover ratio in both the cases would be:

a) 32.64 and 112.54

b) 35.64 and 111.54

c) 34.64 and 109.54

d) 33.64 and 107.54

Answer:

EOQ=
√ 2 x 15,000 x 500 = 866 units
20
Average inventory = EOQ/2 = 866/2 = 433 units.

Inventory turnover in EOQ = Annual demand / Average Inventory = 15000/433 = 34.64 times.

EOQ=
√ 2 x 15,000 x 50 = 274 units
20
Average inventory = EOQ/2 = 274/2 = 137 units.

Inventory turnover in EOQ = Annual demand / Average Inventory = 15000/137 = 109.54 times.
