49) The wholesale price for Captain John’s is $0.612 per loaf, and the variable cost of production is $0.387 per loaf. Captain John’s is expecting that expansion will allow them to sell an additional 4.5 million loaves in the next five years. What additional revenues minus expenses will be generated from expansion? A. $1,012,500 B. $1,102,000 C. $912,500 D. $1,000,500

Contribution margin = wholesale price − variable cost = $0.612 − $0.387 = $0.225 per loaf. The additional 4.5 million loaves would therefore generate an increase of $0.225 per loaf times 4.5 million loaves = $1,012,500 in revenues minus expenses each year

50) The wholesale price for Captain John’s is $1.00 per loaf, and the variable cost of production is $0.50 per loaf. Captain John’s is expecting that expansion will allow them to sell an additional 5.0 million loaves in the next year. What additional revenues minus expenses will be generated from expansion? A. $25,000 B. $250,000 C. $550,000 D. none of these

Contribution margin = wholesale price − variable cost = $1.00 − $0.50 = $0.50 per loaf. The additional 5 million loaves would therefore generate an increase of $0.50 per loaf times 5 million loaves = $2,500,000 in revenues minus expenses each year

51) The wholesale price for Captain John’s is $3.00 per loaf. One million loaves will be sold in the next year. What is the contribution margin? A. $3,000,000 B. cannot tell C. $3.00 D. $3,000,000 minus fixed costs

We need the variable cost to determine the contribution margin which is equal to the wholesale price minus the variable cost; thus, we cannot tell
