CVP alternative cost structures. Kids Lemonade Stand (KLS) is run by Sarah, who sells lemonade for $0.50 per glass. Lemons, sugar and water cost $0.15 per glass. Sarah’s friend, Jessica, helps out by squeezing the lemons for $0.10 each. (Each lemon will provide enough juice for 2 glasses of lemonade.) Sarah uses tables, chairs and pitchers that belong to David who gathered the furniture when he had the stand last summer David charges $6 per day for use of the furniture.

2. Sarah wants to earn $3 per day after expenses. How many glasses does she have to sell to earn $ 3.

4. At what sales level will Sarah be indifferent between hiring Jessica or David to squeeze the lemons? At what sales levels would she prefer to (a) hire Jessica (b) hire David?
