Night Shades, Inc. (NSI), manufactures biotech sunglasses. The variable materials cost is $11.13 per unit, and the variable labor cost is $7.29 per unit. a. What is the variable cost per unit? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.) b. Suppose the company incurs fixed costs of $875,000 during a year in which total production is 190,000 units. What are the total costs for the year? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e. g., 32.) c. If the selling price is $44.99 per unit, does the company break even on a cash basis? If depreciation is $435,000 per year, what is the accounting break-even point? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)

Part a. What is the variable cost per unit?

Variable Cost per Unit is $ 11.13+ $ 7.29 = $18.42

Part b. What are the total costs for the year?

Production for the year is 190000 units

Calculation of Total Production = Variable costs + Fixed Costs

                                                       = 190000 units × $18.42 + $875,000

                                                       =$ 4,374,800

Part c. If the selling price is $44.99 per unit, does the company break even on a cash basis?

The Company Breaks Even when

Total Sales Revenue = Total Production Costs

Total Sales Revenue = $44.99 × 190000

                                    = $ 8,548,100

Total Sales Revenue $ 8,548,100 > Total Production Costs $ 4,374,800

Therefore Company does break even on a cash basis

Part c. If depreciation is $435,000 per year, what is the accounting break-even point?

Total Production Costs = $4,374,800+$435000

                                       = $4,809,800

Therefore accounting break-even point is $4,809,800 Sales

Explanation:

Part a. What is the variable cost per unit?

Variable Cost are costs which Vary with the level of Activity.

Part b. What are the total costs for the year?

Calculation of Total Production Costs= Variable costs + Fixed Costs                                                  

Part c. If the selling price is $44.99 per unit, does the company break even on a cash basis?

Break-Even Point is the Point when the company neither makes a profit or a loss

Total Sales Revenue $ 8,548,100 > Total Production Costs $ 4,374,800

Therefore Company does break even on a cash basis

Part c. If depreciation is $435,000 per year, what is the accounting break-even point?

In simple terms the break even point in Sales Revenue is equal to all Variable plus fixed costs

answer; 20% is your answer;

the investment was $14,174.196

explanation:

a lump sum means that the father of the example made one deposit and leave it be.

we need to know the value of a capital that generated at 4.05% per year during 28 years the sum of $48,613.24

now clearing the formula to solve for capital we got:

and we reach the answer investment = $14,174.20
