a bank loan of £19,000 on the 1st November 2022. The interest on
this loan will be paid every month. The company will be required to
make 12 equal payments to repay the loan starting from the end of
December.
From their costs estimates, total fixed cost estimated to be
£110,200 and it will be shared equally throughout the period. The
variable cost is £230 per unit. The fixed costs are for the whole
period, so they are not affected by the level of service. However,
the variable costs will increase with services output (ie sales
output multiplied with variable cost per product).
Variable cost will be paid on the basis of 60% in the month of
purchase and 40% the following month. Similarly, revenue from the
sale of new security light will be on the basis of 60% cash in the
same month, and the remaining 40% credit to be paid the following
month.
