Problem 6-2A (Part Level Submission)

Lorge Corporation has collected the following information after its first year of sales. Sales were $900,000 on 90,000 units; selling expenses $250,000 (40% variable and 60% fixed); direct materials $76,100; direct labor $240,000; administrative expenses $270,000 (20% variable and 80% fixed); and manufacturing overhead $357,000 (70% variable and 30% fixed). Top management has asked you to do a CVP analysis so that it can make plans for the coming year. It has projected that unit sales will increase by 10% next year.

Explanation / Answer

Ans. a Step: 1 Calculation of Variable cost of the firm

                                                                 Current Year                        Projected Year (Increase by 10%)

Selling Exp. (250000X.40) 100000 110000

Direct material    76100    83710

Direct labour 240000    264000                                       

Admin Exp.(270000X.20)    54000 59400

Manufacturing exp. 249900 274890

Total variable cost    720000 792000

Step 2: calculation of Fixed cost

Selling exp.     150000

Admin exp.    216000                                                    

Manufacturing exp.              473100

Total Fixed cost                   473100

                                       Contribution margin Statement

                                                    Current Year                         Projected Year

Sales                                          900000                                       990000

Less: Variable cost                  720000                                       792000

Contribution margin                180000                                       198000

Fixed cost                                  473100                                       473100

b. Calculation of Break Even points = Fixed cost/PV ratio

PV ratio = Contribution margin/Sales X100

               = 180000/900000X100 = 25%

BEP in Value = 473100/.20 = 2365500

sales value per unit = 900000/90000 = 10

Break even points in units = 2365500/10 =236550

c. Target income 200000

Desired sales = (Target income+fixed cost)/PV ratio

                           = (200000+473100)/.20 = 3365500

d. Margin of safety =(3365500-2365500)/3365500X100=29.71%

e. Calculation of Revised Variable cost

Selling Exp .(250000X.90)              225000

Direct material                                  76100

Labour                                               130000

Admin exp                                         54000

Manufacturing exp (357000X.30) 107100

Total variable cost                           592200

Step: 2 Calculation of Fixed cost

Selling cost                   =   25000

Admin exp                     =   216000

Manufacturing exp      =    249900

Total FC                        =    490900

Calculation of Contribution margin

Sales                             =      900000

Less: VC                      =       592200

Contribution margin =      307800

Contribution margin % = 34.20%

Break Even point = 490900/.3420 = 1435380
