Macroeconomics – Target selling price
Lafluer Corporation needs to set a target price for its newly designed product M14 – M16. The following data relate to this new product.
Per Unit Total
Direct materials $20
Direct labor $42
Variable manufacturing overhead $10
Fixed manufacturing overhead $1,440,000
Variable selling and administrative expenses $5
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $1,040,000
These costs are based on a budgeted volume of 80,000 units produced and sold each year. Lafluer uses cost-plus pricing methods to set its target selling price. The markup percentage on total unit cost is 30%.
Hint:
Use cost-plus pricing to determine various amounts.
Instructions
