Let’s calculate the marginal cost at different capacities and then determine the estimated profit.

Given Data:

  • Selling Price at 50% capacity = Rs. 200 per unit
  • Cost per unit at 50% capacity = Rs. 180
  • Material Cost at 50% capacity = Rs. 100
  • Wages at 50% capacity = Rs. 30
  • Factory Overheads at 50% capacity = Rs. 30 (40% fixed)
  • Administrative Overheads at 50% capacity = Rs. 20 (50% fixed)

1. At 50% Capacity:

[ \text{Variable Cost per unit} = \text{Material Cost} + \text{Wages} + \text{Variable portion of Factory Overheads} + \text{Variable portion of Admin Overheads} ]

[ \text{Fixed Cost per unit} = \text{Fixed portion of Factory Overheads} + \text{Fixed portion of Admin Overheads} ]

[ \text{Total Cost per unit} = \text{Variable Cost per unit} + \text{Fixed Cost per unit} ]

[ \text{Contribution per unit} = \text{Selling Price} – \text{Total Cost per unit} ]

2. At 60% Capacity:

Increase in raw material cost by 2%, decrease in selling price by 2%.

[ \text{Variable Cost per unit (60%)} = \text{Material Cost (60%)} + \text{Wages} + \text{Variable portion of Factory Overheads} + \text{Variable portion of Admin Overheads} ]

[ \text{Fixed Cost per unit (60%)} = \text{Fixed portion of Factory Overheads} + \text{Fixed portion of Admin Overheads} ]

[ \text{Total Cost per unit (60%)} = \text{Variable Cost per unit (60%)} + \text{Fixed Cost per unit (60%)} ]

[ \text{Contribution per unit (60%)} = \text{Selling Price (60%)} – \text{Total Cost per unit (60%)} ]

3. At 80% Capacity:

Increase in raw material cost by 5%, decrease in selling price by 5%.

[ \text{Variable Cost per unit (80%)} = \text{Material Cost (80%)} + \text{Wages} + \text{Variable portion of Factory Overheads} + \text{Variable portion of Admin Overheads} ]

[ \text{Fixed Cost per unit (80%)} = \text{Fixed portion of Factory Overheads} + \text{Fixed portion of Admin Overheads} ]

[ \text{Total Cost per unit (80%)} = \text{Variable Cost per unit (80%)} + \text{Fixed Cost per unit (80%)} ]

[ \text{Contribution per unit (80%)} = \text{Selling Price (80%)} – \text{Total Cost per unit (80%)} ]

Now, calculate the estimated profit at 60% and 80% capacities using the contribution per unit figures. The profit is calculated as follows:

[ \text{Estimated Profit} = (\text{Contribution per unit} \times \text{Number of Units Produced}) – \text{Fixed Costs} ]

Ensure that all calculations are based on consistent units (e.g., lakhs or rupees).
