Handy Home sells windows and doors in the ratio of 8:2 (windows:doors). The selling price of each window is $200 and of each door is $500. The variable cost of a window is $125 and of a door is $350. Fixed costs are $900,000.
(1) Determine the selling price per composite unit.
(2) Determine the variable costs per composite unit.
(3) Determine the break-even point in composite units.
(4) Determine the number of units of each product that will be sold at the break-even point.

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The proportion of windowws= 0.8

The proportion of doors= 0.2

The selling price of each window is $200 and each door is $500. The variable cost of a window is $125 and of a door is $350. Fixed costs are $900,000.

1) To determine the composite price, we need to multiply the selling price of each product for the proportion of sales. Then sum them.

weighted average selling price= (selling price* weighted sales participation)

weighted average selling price= (0.8*200) + (0.2*500)= $260

2) We need to the same with the variable cost:

weighted average variable cost= (variable cost* weighted sales participation)

weighted average variable cost= (0.8*125) + (0.2*350)= $170

3) Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / (weighted average selling price - weighted average variable expense)

Break-even point (units)= 900,000/ (260 - 170)

Break-even point (units)= 10,000 units

4) To determine the number of units of each product, we need to multiply the break-even point in units for the proportion of sales:

Windows= 10,000*0.8= 8,000

Doors= 10,000*0.2= 2,000

typically a loft will include modern kitchen and bathrooms, this increases the price tag. lofts also have a good amount of open space, this requires more heating and electricity. lofts are also in older buildings, this means that maintaining the location increases the bill. keep in mind this is without talking about the high state and property taxes.

i hope this you! : )
