Cost Volume Profit Analysis Question
Question
Cost-Volume-Profit Models
Part I
Bennis Shafts produces three types of golf club shafts which it sells to golf club manufacturers. Prepare ONE worksheet to answer the following questions and to determine the outcomes of the different scenarios below.
The computation section of your spreadsheet should have two sections:
Section A.
Answer the following questions based on the information as given:
1) What is the sales mix?
2) What is the contribution margin per unit for each type of shaft?
3) What is the weighted average unit contribution margin for this mix of shafts (show both the CMU method and the total CM method)
4) How many of each type of shaft must Bennis sell to breakeven?
5) Given the limited production time, which type of shaft is most profitable?
Section B.
1. Prepare a variable costing income statement for each scenario below. The assumptions/changes for each scenario should be shown in the input section and clearly labeled for that scenario. The changes in scenarios 2, 3 and 4 are based on scenario 1 which is the information as given. This means that all items should be at the values used in scenario 1 except the item(s) that are indicated to change for that particular scenario. Prepare and clearly label a separate income statement for each scenario.
2. Prepare a Word document with a short memo (1/2 page single spaced) to Bennis Shafts management explaining the effects of scenarios 2, 3 and 4 on their operating income compared to scenario 1. Please be clear but concise.
Scenario 1– Bennis sells shafts in the quantities, prices and costs as indicated in the given information.
Scenario 2– Due to a decrease in orders by 10%, management attempts to compensate for lower sales by increasing all prices by 10%.
Scenario 3 – Bennis hires a new production supervisor at $50,000 in response to an increase in orders of 10%.
Scenario 4– Bennis changes its sales mix to Steel – 20%, Titanium – 60% and Beryllium – 20% while producing the same total number of golf club shafts.

I have been using TheReliableTutor with help with my marketing assignments from the second semester and what can I say, my grades have never been better. The online marketing assignment help experts at HwA are extremely professional and available at all times of the day in case I need to clarify any facts.
Lora Hart Student
I had no idea about optimal design for separating units till I came across the team of HwA. Their team of distillation assignment experts helped me through the course by letting me get excellent grades in all of my assignments.
Alan Watts Student
After I moved to Australia to study Computer Science and Engineering, I found out that the things are quite different than what it used to be in the Indian universities. The course structure is much more practical oriented and thus the numbers of assignments are also more. I was clueless and was struggling to cope when I came across HwA. Thanks to them I got through my first two semesters with good grades and that boosted my confidence. Now I am pursuing my post-graduation from a Queensland based reputed technology university and still taking help from HwA.

1. I never faced any problem with marketing management or finance. But with operations management, I always suffered. I was unable to under the concepts of the decision tree analysis and the concept of location strategies. When I came across TheReliableTutor.com, I was relieved as they helped me overcome the horrors of operations management and transformed my fear into a genuine interest.
Simon Betteridge Student
The management case study was based on a factory in Napier, which I am sure no US based or UK based assignment experts could have solved. I searched online for management assignment experts from New Zealand but was not being able to narrow down on one. Luckily, then I bumped into TheReliableTutor and found out that the management assignment experts are actually from New Zealand. The case study went well and so did the other management assignment solutions, for which I took help from them again.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
