Materials ₹ 4,010
Wages: A - Department 60 Hours, @ ₹ 3 Per hour
B - Department 40 hours, @ ₹ 2 Per hour
C - Department 20 hours, @ ₹ 5 Per hour
Overhead expenses for these three departments were estimated as
follows:
Variable overheads:
Department A ₹ 5,000 For 5000 labour hours
Department B ₹ 3,000 For 1,500 labour hours
Department C ₹ 2,000 For 500 labour hours
Fixed overheads: - Estimated at ₹ 20,000 For 10,000 Normal working
hours. you are required to calculate the cost of job number 101 and
calculate the price to give profit of 30% on selling price.

MARGINAL COSTING
Problem 1
A company produces 500 units at a variable cost of $200 per unit. The
price is $250 per unit and there are fixed expenses of $12,000 per
month.

For this question, calculate Break-even point in terms of both units and
sales. Also, show the profit at 90% capacity.

Solution
(i) BEP (units) = Fixed Expenses / C

= ($542,000 + $252,000) / 6

= 792,000 / 6 = 132,000 units

BEP (Sales) = 132,000 x 20 = $2640,000

(ii) Sales for examining profit = $60,000

BEP (units) = (Fixed Exp. + Desired Profit) / C

= (792,000 + 60,000) / 6

= 852,000 / 6

= 142,000 units

BEP Sales = 142,000 x 20 = $2,840,000

PROBLEM 2
For a company, sales are $80,000, variable costs are $4,000, and fixed
costs are $4,000. Calculate the following: (i) PVR, (ii) BEP (Sales), (iii)
Margin of Safety, and (iv) Profit.

Solution
(i) PVR = (C / $) x 100 = (4,000 x 100) / 8,000 = 50%

C = 8,000 - (4,000) = $4,000

(ii) BEP (Sales) = Fixed Cost / PVR

= (4,000 x 100) / 50

= $8,000

(iii) MOS = Actual Sales - BEP Sales

= 8,000 - 8,000

= Nil

OR

MOS = Profit / PVR = 0 / 8,000 = Nil

(iv) Profit = Sales - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

= 8,000 - 4,000 - 4,000

= Nil
