The basic installation course has the following (tentative) price and cost characteristics. Tuition $ 520 per student Variable costs (tiles, supplies, and so on) 290 per student Fixed costs (advertising, salaries, and so on) 103,500 per year Required: a. What enrollment will enable Alameda Tile to break even? b. How many students will enable Alameda Tile to make an operating profit of $59,800 for the year? c. Assume that the projected enrollment for the year is 890 students for each of the following (considered independently): 1. What will be the operating profit (for 890 students)? 2. What would be the operating profit if the tuition per student (that is, sales price) decreased by 7 percent? Increased by 21 percent? 3. What would be the operating profit if variable costs per student decreased by 13 percent? Increased by 20 percent? 4. Suppose that fixed costs for the year are 7 percent lower than projected, whereas variable costs per student are 7 percent higher than projected. What would be the operating profit for the year?
