Total Labour cost $4.38 Total Overhead cost $4.38*2 = $8.76 2. Calculation of the overhead cost Those costs that are required to run a business are known as overhead cost. But they cannot be directly attributed to any specific business activity, product, or service. Thus, overhead costs do not directly lead to the generation of profits. Overhead is still necessary, since it provides critical support for the generation of profit-making activities. Examples of overhead are:  Accounting and legal expenses  Administrative salaries  Depreciation  Insurance  Licenses and government fees  Property taxes  Rent  Utilities Overhead costs tend to be fixed, which means that they do not change from period to period. Examples of fixed overhead costs are depreciation and rent. Less frequently, overhead varies directly with the sales level, or varies somewhat as the activity level changes.

In performing this investigation, there are a few suspicions made, including: 1. Variable expenses per unit are steady. 2. Complete altered expenses are steady. 3. Everything created is sold. 4. Expenses are influenced on the grounds that movement changes. 5. In the event that an organization offers more than one item, they are sold in the same blend. (http://www.investopedia.com, n.d.)

In order to expand the business, the Cookie Delights Company has agreed to provide a bid with an owner of a local car dealership. The bid is to provide for an order of 500 cookies for a special event in the community. In order to calculate the price that would be charged to the business owner for the entire project would be as follows:- No of units o be produced: 500 units Display cost = $200 Logo cost = $0.03 per unit Therefore, total cost would be: $215 would be the total cost for the whole event. After the presentation of the bid price, the buyer pays an amount equal to 85%. 2. Assuming the new price to be $200, then the owner has to pay $170 initially for the contract so that different shapes of car cookies can be made available to the client 3. & 4. Even if the Cookie Delight Company reduces their prices in order to increase the demand then also profit can be earned as the costs are minimal and the owner is willing to pay 85% of the amount so given. Suppose the new price is $200 still profit can be earned because the breakeven has been achieved at $200 n $15 is the variable cost which would not result in profit here. The revenue so earned shall be 500*215 = $107500 and the costs shall be $100000 resulting in a profit of $7500. 5. The job at reduced prices is taken only if breakeven point is reached and there is no loss for the Cookie Delight Company which would affect the company's prices and policies. Moreover the quality of products is to be maintained which would help in building the goodwill of the company. The sales so made would be considered as the lifeblood of every organization and it would also not affect the going concern concept of the entity (Social Triggers, 2016).
