Fixed costs are $3,000, variable costs are $5 per unit. The company will manufacture 100 units and chart a 50% markup. Using the cost-plus pricing method, what will the selling price be?
Answer is as follows:
Cost per Unit = Variable Cost p.u + ( Fixed Costs / No.of Units )
= $5 + ( $3000 / 100 units )
= $5 + $30
= $35
Selling Price Using Cost-Plus Pricing = Cost + Mark up on Cost
= $35 + 50% of $35
= $35+ $17.5
= $52.5
