Homework Answers
a. incremental cost for extra 50,000 units.
=> (total variable costs for april ) / number of units for april * 50,000 units.
=>(20,000+12,000) / 25,000 * 50,000
=>$64,000.
b.incremental revenue associated with price reduction:
| new revenue ($4.60*375,000) | 1,725,000 |
| less:existing revenue ($5.00*325,000) | (1,625,000) |
| incremental revenue | 100,000 |
c.since incremental revenue is higher than incremental cost, price of salsa can be lowered, net benefit will be (100,000-64,000)=>$36,000.
