Hereford Company is planning to introduce a new product with an 80 percent learning rate for production for batches of 1000 unites. The variable labor costs are $30 per unit for the first 1000-unit batch. Each batch requires 100 hours. There are $10,000 in fixed costs not subject to learning. What is the cumulative total time (labor hours) to produce 2,000 units based on the cumulative average-time learning curve?
I know that the answer is 160 hours but I don't understand how to get that answer.

Keep-or-Drop Decision
Petoskey Company produces three products: Alanson, Boyne, and Conway. A segmented income statement, with amounts given in thousands, follows:
| Alanson | Boyne | Conway | Total | ||||||
| Sales revenue | $1,280 | $185 | $360 | $1,825 | |||||
| Less: Variable expenses | 1,115 | 45 | 288 | 1,448 | |||||
| Contribution margin | $165 | $140 | $72 | $377 | |||||
| Less direct fixed expenses: | |||||||||
| Depreciation | 50 | 15 | 10 | 75 | |||||
| Salaries | 95 | 85 | 84 | 264 | |||||
| Segment margin | $20 | $40 | $(22) | $38 | |||||
Direct fixed expenses consist of depreciation and plant supervisory salaries. All depreciation on the equipment is dedicated to the product lines. None of the equipment can be sold.
Assume that, each of the three products has a different supervisor whose position would be eliminated if the associated product were dropped.
Assume that 20% of the Alanson customers choose to buy from Petoskey because it offers a full range of products, including Conway. If Conway were no longer available from Petoskey, these customers would go elsewhere to purchase Alanson.
Required:
Conceptual Connection: Estimate the impact on profit that would
result from dropping Conway. Enter amount in full, rather than in
thousands. For example, "15000" rather than "15".

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost. Last year, the company sold 32,000 of these balls, with the following results: Sales (32,000 balls) $ 800,000 Variable expenses 480,000 Contribution margin 320,000 Fixed expenses 211,000 Net operating income $ 109,000 Required: 1. Compute (a) last year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls, and (b) the degree of operating leverage at last year’s sales level. 2. Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that next year's variable expenses will increase by $3.00 per ball. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $25.00, what will be next year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls? 3. Refer to the data in (2) above. If the expected change in variable expenses takes place, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $109,000, as last year? 4. Refer again to the data in (2) above. The president feels that the company must raise the selling price of its basketballs. If Northwood Company wants to maintain the same CM ratio as last year (as computed in requirement 1a), what selling price per ball must it charge next year to cover the increased labor costs? 5. Refer to the original data. The company is discussing the construction of a new, automated manufacturing plant. The new plant would slash variable expenses per ball by 40.00%, but it would cause fixed expenses per year to double. If the new plant is built, what would be the company’s new CM ratio and new break-even point in balls? 6. Refer to the data in (5) above. a. If the new plant is built, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $109,000, as last year? b. Assume the new plant is built and that next year the company manufactures and sells 32,000 balls (the same number as sold last year). Prepare a contribution format income statement and compute the degree of operating leverage.

7.The Manning Company has financial statements as shown next, which are representative of the company’s historical average.
The firm is expecting a 25 percent increase in sales next year, and management is concerned about the company’s need for external funds. The increase in sales is expected to be carried out without any expansion of fixed assets, but rather through more efficient asset utilization in the existing store. Among liabilities, only current liabilities vary directly with sales.
