61.Geary Manufacturing has assembled the following data pertaining to
two popular products.
Blender Electric mixer
Direct materials P 6 P 11
Direct labor 4 9
Factory overhead @ P16 per hour 16 32
Cost if purchased from an
outside supplier 20 38
Annual demand (units) 20,000 28,000
Past experience has shown that the fixed manufacturing overhead
component included in the cost per machine hour averages P10.

needed
B. produce 20,000 blenders and 15,000 electric mixers, and purchase
all other units as needed
C. produce 20,000 blenders and purchase all other units as needed
D. purchase all units as needed
62.The Hingis Corporation manufactures two products: X and Y.
Contribution margin per unit is determined as follows:
Product X Product Y
Revenue P 130 P80
Variable costs 70 38
Contribution margin P 60 P42
Total demand for X is 16,000 units and for Y is 8,000 units. Machine
hours is a scarce resource. 42,000 machine hours are available during
the year. Product X requires 6 machine hours per unit while product Y
requires 3 machine hours per unit.
