Edgerron Company is able to produce two products, G and B, with the same machine in its factory. The following information is available. Product G Product B Selling price per unit $132 $ 16% Variable costs per unit 50 96 Contribution margin per unit $ 82 $ 54 Machine hours to produce 1 unit 0.4 hours 1.0 hours Maximum unit sales per month 600 units 150 units The company presently operates the machine for a single eight-hour shift for 22 working days each month. Management is thinking about operating the machine for two shifts, which will increase its productivity by another eight hours per day for 22 days per month. This change would require $8,000 additional fixed costs per month. (Round hours per unit answers to 1 decimal place. Enter operating losses. if any, as negative values.) 9 Answer is not complete. 1. Determine the contribution margin per machine hour that each product generates. 8 82808 82889 Contribution margin per machine hour $ 205.00 0 $ 64.00 a Hours required to produce maximum units 240 o 150 Q 2. How many units of Product G and Product B should the company produce if it continues to operate with only one shift? How much total contribution margin does this mix produce each month? Product G Product B Total Hours dedicated to the production of each product 176 176 Units produced for most profitable sales mix 390 X Contribution margin per unit EA 82.00 64.00 X Total contribution margin - one shift 31,980 $ 0 $ 31,980 X 3. If the company adds another shift, how many units of Product G and Product B should it produce? How much total incremental income would this mix produce each month? Should the company add the new shift? Product G Product B Total Hours dedicated to the production of each product 240 112 352 Units produced for most profitable sales mix 600 112 Contribution margin per unit $ 82.00 $ 64.00 Total contribution margin - two shifts $ 49,200 $ 7, 168 $ 56,368 Total contribution margin - one shift 31,980 Change in contribution margin 24,388 X Change in fixed costs 8,000 Change in operating income(loss) EA 16,388 X Total incremental income EA 48,368 Should the company add another shift? Yes4. Suppose the company determines that it can increase Product G's maximum sales to 700 units per month by spending $7,000 per month in marketing e'ons. Should the company pursue this strategy and the double shift? Compute total incremental income. Second shift without marketing campaign: Units produced for most protable sales mix Contribution margin per unit $ Contribution margin $ $ Additional xed costs $ 55,008 0 Incremental income Second shift with marketing campaign: Units produced for most protable sales mix Contribution margin per unit Contribution margin
