SOLUTION 2.1
Cost bifurcation for 10000 units of Output
Particulars |
Amount in R |
(A)Output (in Units) |
10000 |
(B)Variable Cost |
85000 |
(C)Semi Variable Cost: Variable Portion |
66500 |
(D)Semi Variable Cost: Fixed Portion |
28500 |
(E)Fixed Cost |
40000 |
(F) = (B)+(C)+(D)+(E) Total Cost |
220000 |
(G)=(F)/(A) Total Cost Per unit |
22 |
Working Note 1:
Computation of Variable Cost per unit:
Total Variable Cost = 85000
Output = 10000 units
Variable Cost per unit = Total variable cost/Output
Variable Cost per unit = 85000/10000
Variable Cost per unit = 8.50
Working Note 2:
Computation of Semi Variable Cost per unit:
Total Semi-Variable Cost = 95000
Fixed Portion in Semi Variable Cost = 30% of 99500
Fixed Portion in Semi Variable Cost = 28500
Total Variable Portion in Semi Variable Cost = 66500
Output = 10000
Variable Portion in Semi Variable Cost per unit = Total Variable Portion in Semi Variable Cost/Output
Variable Portion in Semi Variable Cost per unit = 6.65
Final Solution:
Calculation of Total Cost and Total cost per unit for 35000 unit of output:
|
Particulars |
Amount in R |
(A) |
Output (in Units) |
35000 |
(B) |
Total Variable Cost = 8.50*35000 |
297500 |
(C) |
Variable Portion in Semi Variable Cost = 6.65*35000 |
232750 |
(D) |
Fixed Portion in Semi Variable Cost |
28500 |
(E) |
Fixed Cost |
40000 |
(F) = (B)+(C)+(D) +(E) |
Total Cost |
598750 |
(G) = (F)/(A) |
Total Cost Per unit = 598750/35000 |
