MISCELENEOUS PROBLEMS
Example:1 M/s Natraj stationers manufactures plastic files for office use. The break-up of its
cost and sales is as follows:
Variable cost per file Rs. 40
Fixed cost
Rs. 60,000 per year
Production capacity 3,000 files per year
Selling price
Rs. Per file
You are required to compute the following:
1) Break-even point .
2) Number of files to be sold to earn a net profit of Rs.30,000.
3) If the firm manufactures and sells 500 files more per year with n additional fixed cost of
Rs. 2,000, what should be the selling price to earn the amount of profit per file ass in (2)
above?
Example:2 when Alpine Ltd. Operates at normal capacity, it manufacturers 2,00,000 units of its

During the next three month, only 10,000 units can be produced and sold. The management
plans to shut down the plant, estimating that the fixed manufacturing overhead can be reduced to
Rs. 74,000 for the quarter when the plant is not operating. The fixed overhead cost are incurred
at a uniform rate throughout the year. Additional costs of plant shut down for the three month are
estimated at Rs.14,000.
1) Should the plant be shut down for three months? Show computation.
2) What is shut down point for the three months in units of product?

Production arrangement are such that if one if one product is given up, the production of the
other can be raised by 50%. The directors propose that ‘C’ should be given up because the
contribution from the product from the product is the lowest. Present suitable analysis of the data
indicating whether the proposal should be accepted.

Management wants to discard department B as its loss is maximum. Next, department A will
also be discarded. What is your advice to management?
Example:6 PL Ltd., is producing 25,000 units of a component at a cost of Rs.50 per unit. Fixed
cost at this level of output is Rs. 10 per unit. 40% of fixed cost is avoidable. PL Ltd. Can buy the
component from outside at Rs. 42 per unit. Should he produce or buy?

The variable cost of manufacture between these levels is Rs.0.15 per unit and fixed cost
Rs.40,000.
1) Prepare a statement showing incremental revenue and differential cost at each stage. At
which volume of production will the profit be maximum?
2) If there is a bulk offer at Rs.0.50 per unit for the balance capacity over the maximum
profit volume for export and price quoted will not affect the internal sale. Will you advise
to accept this bid and why?
