Cost of goods sold (44,500,000)

Gross profit $ 54,140,000

Expenses:

Selling expenses $8,000,000

Management is considering a plant expansion program that will permit an increase of $8,631,000 (35,000 units at $246.60) in yearly sales. The expansion will increase fixed costs by $3,600,000 but will not affect the relationship between sales and variable costs.

Determine for 20Y5 the total fixed costs and the total variable costs.

    Total fixed costs = $16,860,000

    Total variable costs = $38,640,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of Total fixed cost and total variable cost is shown below:-

    Total fixed costs = Cost of goods sold + Selling expense + Administrative expense

    = (28% * $44,500,000) + (25% * $8,000,000) + (80% * $3,000,000)

    = $12,460,000 + $2,000,000 + $2,400,000

    = $16,860,000

    Total variable costs = Cost of goods sold + Selling expense + Administrative expense

    = (72% * $44,500,000) + (75% * $8,000,000) + (20% * $3,000,000)

    = $32,040,000 + $6,000,000 + $600,000

    = $38,640,000
