Gumball Candies manufactures jaw-breaker candies in a fully automated process. The machine that produces candies was purchased recently and can make 4,600 per month. The machine costs $5,500 and is depreciated using straight line depreciation over 10 years assuming zero residual value. Rent for the factory space and warehouse and other fixed manufacturing overhead costs total $1,100 per month. Gumball currently makes and sells 3,100 jaw-breakers per month. Gumball buys just enough materials each month to make the jaw-breakers it needs to sell. Materials cost 30 cents per jaw-breaker. Next year Gumball expects demand to increase by 100%. At this volume of materials purchased, it will get a 10% discount on price. Rent and other fixed manufacturing overhead costs will remain the same. Read the requirements Requirement 1. What is Gumball's current annual relevant range of output? Gumball's current annual relevant range of output is Requirement 2. What is Gumball's current annual fixed manufacturing cost within the relevant range? What is the annual variable manufacturing cost? Gumball's current annual fixed manufacturing costs = ol Gumball's current annual variable manufacturing costs = Requirement 3. What will Gumball's relevant range of output be next year? How if at all, will total annual fixed and variable manufacturing costs change next year? Assume that if it needs to Gumball could buy an identical machine at the same cost as the one it already has. If the demand increases by 100%, annual production will have to increase to this amount of jaw-breakers next year to meet the expected increase Gumball has two options: (a) or (b) V and the annual fixed costs will Should the company decide to go with option (b), the variable cost per unit produced will If the company decides to go with option (a), the variable cost per unit produced will and the annual fixed costs will Requirements 1. What is Gumball's current annual relevant range of output? 2. What is Gumball's current annual fixed manufacturing cost within the relevant range? What is the annual variable manufacturing cost? 3. What will Gumball's relevant range of output be next year? How if at all, will total annual fixed and variable manufacturing costs change next year? Assume that if it needs to Gumball could buy an identical machine at the same cost as the one it already has.
