California Gardens, Inc., prewashes, shreds, and
distributes a variety of salad mixes in 2-pound bags. Doug Voss,
Operations VP, is considering a new Hi-Speed shredder to replace
the old machine, referred to in the shop as “Clunker”. Hi-Speed
will have a fixed cost of $85 000 per month and a variable cost of
$1.25 per bag. Clunker has a fixed cost of only $44 000 per month,
but a variable cost of $1.75. Selling price is $2.50 per bag.
a) What is the crossover point in units (point of indifference) for
the processes?
b) What is the monthly profit or loss if the company changes to the
Hi-Speed shredder and sells 60 000 bags per month?
c) What is the monthly profit or loss if the company stays with
Clunker and sells 60 000 bags per month?
