the production of adipic acid. They are the production from cyclohexane using catalyst, phenol and benzene via cyclohexene process. Even though these three routes have very different characteristics and cost distributions, ranging from the high raw material costs but comparatively low capital costs for the phenol-based route. Figure 2.1 represent all kind of processes involves in order to produce adipic acid. Three routes of processes are shown in that figure which are commercially…
calculate the unit costs by mentioning the costs type of each of them. So, first, the costs types must be clarified. The types of costs are as follows (Accounting for Management, 2017): - Variable Costs are that costs that change as the volume of production changes and are related to production units, such as the cost of materials used in manufacturing. The total value of the variable cost increases with the increase in the volume of production, and vice versa; - Fixed Costs are the costs that…
Marginal and absorption costing are two different approaches to dealing with fixed manufacturing overheads and whether or not they are included in valuing inventory. The marginal cost is the total variable cost of the product, it consists of direct labour hours, direct materials and direct expenses, therefore when the production units increase, the total variable cost will increase proportionately. In other word, the marginal cost can be avoid if there are no any unit to be produced and will…
Sunk costs exist at all levels of any business and should be excluded from the decision-making process. If the company is considering adding a deluxe Teen Burger priced one dollar higher and costing twenty-five cents more to produce, the cost of the building, and cooking equipment have already been incurred and do not need to be considered. This is of particular importance when a new restaurant, menu item, or other project has not performed as expected. At times, there can be an emotional…
business loan of $200,000. Which would give use the amount of $400,000. The first year of starting is going to cost a pretty large sum to investing in three Basic Life Support ambulance to begin with. Used BLS trucks range from $14,500- $5,500 dollars. Three BLS units would roughly cost us $16,500 if we stay near $5,500-dollar mark. Getting them recertified and passing inspections would cost would possibly be around $1,000 dollars all three trucks. For buying radios and medical equipment to…

the costs associated with receiving the revenue. Break-even analysis calculates what is known as a margin of safety, the amount that revenues exceed the break-even point. This is the amount that revenues can fall while still staying above the break-even point. This technique based on categorising production cost between variable cost and fixed cost. Assumption The break-even analysis is depending on these several assumptions: All costs are classified as variable and fixed cost. Variable cost is…
1.0 Introduction CVP also known as Cost-Volume Profit analysis is a method used to calculate and determine break-even point of cost and volume of goods in a business and for management control (Kim Tan, 2011). This is better known as when total revenue equals to total costs and managers find this analysis useful when determining short-term business descisions. When a company hits break-even point, there will be no profit and no losses. Break-even is what most new start up companies want to…
information about costs for planning and control decisions. 2. Direct materials are not usually easily traced to a product. 3. A variable cost changes in proportion to changes in the volume in activity. 4. 34. Product costs are expenditures necessary and integral to finished products. 5. Cost concepts such as variable, fixed, mixed, direct and indirect apply only to manufacturers and…
