Task 1: Determine the Profitability of the Product

The volume of production of products A and B is 50 and 300 thousand pieces, respectively. The price of product A
is 65, and the price of product B is 100. The cost price of product A is 50, and the cost price of product B is 80.
Determine the profitability of each type of product and the overall profitability of the product.

Solution

  • Profitability of Product A:
Profitability of A = ( 65−50 ) 50 × 100% = 30%

  • Profitability of Product B:
Profitability of B=(100−80)80×100%=25%

  • Overall Profitability:
Total Profitability =((65 - 50) * 50 000 + (100 - 80) * 300 000) / (50 * 50 000 + 80 * 300 000) * 100%
= 6 750 000 / 26 500 00 ≈ 25,47%

We divide the entire profit by the entire cost of the production program to get the expected profitability.

Answer: 30%, 25%, 25.47%

Task 2: Determine the Profitability of the Production Program

The company has two subsidiaries. The first has a production volume of 4.3 million with a profitability of 11%.
The second enterprise has a production volume of 2.7 million and a cost price of 2.3 million .
Determine the profitability of production for the company as a whole.

Solution

  1. Cost Price of Production for the First Enterprise:

C1=4,300,000×(1−0.11)=4,300,000×0.89=3,827,000 
  1. Profitability of Production for the Company as a Whole:

Определение рентабельности производства по предприятию в целом. Визначення рентабельності виробництва по підприємству в цілому.
