The combination of equipment purchase cost andother resource and facility fixed costs total $550,000. Eachcalculator costs $12 to produce, but will sell for $38.a.) How many calculators does Kramerica need to sell in order toachieve a volume break-even point? – (30points)b.) What is the corresponding revenue break-evenpoint? – (30 points)c.) How can America use the volume break-even point valuecalculated in part (a)? NOTE: The Excel spreadsheet can be veryuseful for this part as it performs many of these calculations.) –(25 points). In other words:a.) What types of recommendations would you make to America ifthe expected number of calculator sales is 22,000 over the nextyear? (i.e., Are they going to be profitable; if so, by howmuch?b.) Is there going to be a loss; if so, how much? If there is aloss, what might you recommend?).d.) Please sketch a plot of the “Revenues and Costs” versus the“Number of Calculators”, and include both the total revenue andtotal cost lines, and also the volume and revenue break-even points(you can do this manually). Clearly labelthe x-axis and y-axis, and indicate the points of Fixed Costs,volume break-even point, and revenue break-even point. – (15points)
