The Goode and Cooke Company produces several models of frying pans. There is little

difference in the production time required for the various models; the plant is designed to

produce 160 frying pans per eight-hour shift, and there are two shifts per working day.

However, the plant does not operate for the full eight hours: the employees take two 12-

minute breaks in each shift, one in the first four hours and one in the second four hours; two

hours per week are devoted to cleaning the factory and performing maintenance on the

machines; one four-hour period every four weeks is devoted to the meeting of the quality

circle. The plant usually produces about 3,500 frying pans per four-week period. You may

ignore holidays in solving this problem. The selling price of the product is $199.95. The

variable costs per unit are:

Labor $60.25

Raw material 25.70

Purchased component 21.50

Variable overhead 17.50

The fixed costs total $300,000 per year. Perform a breakeven analysis of this company.
