This objective test question contains a question type which will only appear in a computer-based exam, but this question provides valuable practice for all students whichever version of the exam they are taking.
P CO makes two products – P1 and P2 – budgeted details of which are as follows:
P1 P2
$ $
Selling price 10.00 8.00
Cost per unit: Direct materials 3.50 4.00
Direct labour 1.50 1.00
Variable overhead 0.60 0.40
Fixed overhead 1.20 1.00
Profit per unit 3.20 1.60
Budgeted production and sales for the year ended 30 November 2015 are:
Product P1 10,000 units
Product P2 12,500 units
The fixed overhead costs included in P1 relate to apportionment of general overhead costs only. However P2 also includes specific fixed overheads totalling $2,500.
If only product P1 were to be made, how many units (to the nearest unit) would need to be sold in order to achieve a profit of $60,000 each year?
