Question

Angel Toys is a producer of tiny dolls for children. Following is information about its revenue and cost structure: Assume that the current sales level is 14,000 dolls. What impact would a 10% increase in sales have on income

Answer 1

Answer: D. Income would increase by about 51%

Step-by-step explanation:

Income before sales increase:

= Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs

= (8 * 14,000 units) - ( (1.20 + 0.40) * 14,000 units) - (40,000 + 32,000)

= 112,000 - 22,400 - 72,000

= $17,600

Income after sales increase:

New sales = 14,000 * (1 + 10%) = 15,400 units

= (8 * 15,400) - ( (1.20 + 0.40) * 15,400) - (40,000 + 32,000)

= $26,560

Percentage increase:

= (26,560 - 17,600) / 17,600

= 50.9%

= 51%
