Explanation / Answer

Answer to Question Number 1.

Cost of 750gm of flour = ($1.60/4000gm)*750gm = $0.30

Cost of 125 ml Chopped Pecans = ($3/750ml) * 125ml = $0.50

Cost of 60ml Cocoa = ($4.38/750ml) * 60ml = $0.35

Cost of 250gm Sugar = ($3/3750gm) * 250gm = $0.20

Cost of 125ml Chocolate chips = ($1.80/500ml) *125ml = $0.45

Cost of 3 eggs = ($0.84/12 piece) * 3 piece = $0.21

Cost of 85ml Oil = ($1.65/2000 ml) * 85ml = $0.07

Cost of Labour = ($15/60 minutes) * 15 minutes = $3.75

Cost of Packaging = $0.60

Cost of Bakery overhead (oven cost) = ($5/60 minutes) * 30 minutes = $2.50

Therefore total standard cost per pan of gourment bars = $8.93 per pan

Answer to Question Number 2.

Standard cost per pan of gourment bars = $8.93

Sale price per pan = $12

Therefore, standard gross profit per pan of gourment bars = $3.07

Answer to Question Number 3.

In a rapid changing market environment, Barrie's Bakery should reassess the standard quantities and standard prices for inputs as and when there is a change in market scenario. If the input prices goes up, then profit will start decreasing from the current mark of $3.07 per pan.
