PLEASE ANSWER #5! thanks!
Roadrunner Trucking Company is a nationwide truckload carrier. They operate in a highly-competitive market on a very thin margin. Below are the projected figures for 2016: Revenue per mile $5.00 Variable cost per mile $ 4.50 Projected fixed costs $5,000,000 Desired after tax profit $500,000 Tax rate 25%
1. Compute the contribution rate and computation rate margin.
2. Calculate the breakeven in miles and sales dollars based on the information from Question 1.
3. Management is reviewing a proposal from their liability insurance company. The proposal suggests the company change their premium from a fixed to a variable rate. If accepted, this would increase the variable costs by 25 cents per mile and drop the fixed costs by 2%. Should they make the change? Show calculations to support or answer.
4. Shareholders are pressuring management to increase after-tax profit and thus increase the amount of dividends that can be paid. Management thinks they can increase revenue per mile by 5% and with an aggressive cost-cutting program, which will reduce fixed costs by 10%. With this program they project after-tax profits would increase by 15%.
5. Compare the three alternatives. Which is best? Explain your answer.

Hawk Homes, Inc., makes one type of birdhouse that it sells for
$30.80 each. Its variable cost is $14.70 per house, and its fixed
costs total $13,926.50 per year. Hawk currently has the capacity to
produce up to 3,000 birdhouses per year, so its relevant range is 0
to 3,000 houses.
Required:
1. Prepare a contribution margin income statement for Hawk
assuming it sells 1,120 birdhouses this year. (Enter your
answers rounded to 2 decimal places.)
2. Without any calculations, determine Hawk’s
total contribution margin if the company breaks even.
(Enter your answers rounded to 2 decimal
places.)
3. Calculate Hawk’s contribution margin per unit
and its contribution margin ratio. (Round your answers to 2
decimal places. (i.e. .1234 should be entered as
12.34%.))
4. Calculate Hawk’s break-even point in number of units and in sales revenue. (Round your "Sales Revenue" answer to 2 decimal places and "Unit" answer to the nearest whole number.)
5. Suppose Hawk wants to earn $21,000 this year. Determine how many birdhouses it must sell to generate this amount of profit. (Round up to the next whole number.)

Develop a snack bar for a local high school football stadium. You have an empty shell of a small room (measuring ten feet by 15 feet). You currently have no cooking instruments, but you have an ice maker and cash register that you do not need to pay for. Your task is to buy equipment, based on what you want to sell, and then you have to buy products to sell. You need to look at actual prices (you can buy some food at Costco as an example). You have to develop a budget that takes into consideration fixed costs and variable costs and then the revenue you anticipate making. I want this to be as real world as possible so you have to think about whether your budget is realistic and if you have covered everything. Imagine if you work at the high school and if screw-up you can be fired. You want to maximize revenue, but minimize costs. The key is to think about what you will offer, how you will offer it, how will you deliver, produce, etc… everything before you start buying. As an example, you need to clean the snack bar after every game which requires you buy cleaning supplies. Another component is identifying what are fixed costs and what are variable costs.
