The Munchkin Theater is a nonprofit organization devoted to staging plays for children. The theater has a very small full-time professional administrative staff. Through a special arrangement with the actors' union actors and directors rehearse without pay and are paid only for actual performances The costs from the current year's planning budget appear below. The Munchkin Theater had tentatively planned to put on seven different productions with a total of 60 performances. For example, one of the productions was Peter Rabbit, which had five performances The Munchkin Theater Costs from the Planning Budget For the Year Ended December 31 Budgeted number of productions Budgeted number of performances 60 Actors' and directors' wages 144.000 Stagehands' wages 26,400 Ticket booth personnel and ushers' wages Scenery, costumes, and props 58,800 Theater hall rent 44,400 Printed programs 11,100 Publicity 17,500 42,000 Administrative expenses 358,000 Total Some of the costs vary with the number of productions, some with the number of performances, and some are fixed and depend on neither the number of productions nor the number of performances. The costs of scenery, costumes, props, and publicity vary with the number of productions. It doesn't make any difference how many times Peter Rabbit is performed, the cost of the scenery is the same. Likewise, the cost of publicizing a play with posters and radio commercials is the same whether there are 10, 20, or 30 performances of the play. On the other hand, the wages of the actors, directors, stagehands, ticket booth personnel, and ushers vary with the number of performances. The greater the number of performances, the higher the wage costs will be. Similarly, the costs of renting the hall and printing the programs will vary with the number of performances. Administrative expenses are more difficult to pin down, but the best estimate is that approximately 70% of the budgeted costs are fixed, 20% depend on the number of productions staged, and the remaining 10% depend on the number of performances. After the beginning of the year, the board of directors of the theater authorized changing the theater's program to six productions and a total of 64 performances. Actual costs were higher than the costs from the planning budget. (Grants from donors and ticket sales were also correspondingly higher, but are not shown here.)
