    A company has a single product with selling price of $12 per unit, which is calculated as a variable cost per unit, plus 20%. At an output level of 5000 units it makes loss of $8000.

    What is the companies total fixed cost?

    Not sure about your second question as I don’t know what the actual questions are, but for the first question:

    Selling price is $12, made up of variable costs + a mark up of 20%. Therefore the mark up is $12*(20/120) = $2, and therefore the variable cost is $12 – $2 = $10.

    At 5000 units sold @ $12, total sales are $60,000. Variable costs are 5000 x $10 = $50,000, therefore profit before fixed costs is $10,000 ($60,000 – $50,000).

    As a loss of $8,000 is made, this must therefore mean that fixed costs are $18,000. In summary:

    Sales…………………………………$60,000
    Variable costs…($50,000)
    Fixed Costs…….($18,000)
    Total costs…………………………..($68,000)
    …………………………………………________
    Profit/(Loss)…………………………($8,000)
    …………………………………………________

    Thanks, i do understand.

    A company uses total quality management and has recorded the following cost of quality for the period.

    staff training $8000
    inspection $12000
    warranty $20000
    rework of faulty items detected before delivery to customers $15000

    What would be the net benefit of spending extra??
