Answer :

Answer:

The Mark Up % for Landau Gears (using absorption costing) = 28%

Explanation:

Landau Gears

Variable Manufacturing cost Per unit = $12

Fixed Manufacturing cost Per unit = $8

Variable Selling & Admin cost Per unit = $2

Variable Selling & Admin cost Per unit = $3

Desired ROI Per unit = $7

Calculate Mark-Up %

ROI = Sales minus Invested Fund (Cost of operations)

where ROI = $7/unit

$7 = Sales minus ($12 + $8 + $2 + $3)

$7 = Sales minus $25

Make Sales the subject of formula

Sales = $25 + $7 = $32

Mark Up = 7/25 x 100% = 28%
