Minor Electric has received a special one-time order for 1,500 light fixtures (units) at $5 per unit. Minor currently produces a

nd sells 7,500 units at $6.00 each. This level represents 75% of its capacity. Production costs for these units are $4.50 per unit, which includes $3.00 variable cost and $1.50 fixed cost. To produce the special order, a new machine needs to be purchased at a cost of $1,000 with a zero salvage value. Management expects no other changes in costs as a result of the additional production. If Minor wishes to earn $1,250 on the special order, the size of the order would need to be:

Answer:

A special order for 1,125 units generates $1,250 in extra profit. This order (1,500 units) increases profits by $2,000

Explanation:

special order for 1,500 units at $5

regular production 7,500 units at $6

spare capacity 2,500 units (total capacity = 7,500 / 75% = 10,000)

production costs of regular units:

  • variable costs = $3 per unit
  • fixed costs = $1.50 per unit
  • total = $4.50 per unit

new machine is required that costs $1,000

regular fixed costs are not affected by special order

profit from special order:

  • total revenue = 1,500 x $5 = $7,500
  • relevant costs = 1,500 x $3 = ($4,500)
  • new machine = ($1,000)
  • additional profit from special order = $2,000

But Minor only wishes to earn $1,250 from special order, so the number of units should be:

($1,000 + $1,250) / ($5 - $3) = $2,250 / $2 = 1,125 units

This statement reports the revenues and expenses of the club and the changes in the net assets of the company, like depreciation expenses and cost of inventory.  Like the income statement it reports the excess of revenue over expenses or vice versa.  The resulting figure (difference) is not called the net income or loss, but excess of revenue over expenses.

b. Calculation to determine What is the appropiate reorder point

Using this formula

Appropriate re-order point = Mean lead time demand + Safety stock

Let plug in the formula

Appropriate re-order point = 65 + 12

Appropriate re-order point = 77 units

Therefore the appropiate reorder point will be 77 units
