The Pediatrics Dept. operated at 100% capacity during 111

the demand average 17 patients more than capacity and even went as high as 20
patients more on some days. The hospital has an additional 20 beds available
for rent for the coming fiscal year.
1. The
variable expense per day is
a. 15.08
b. 12.50
c. 15.00
d.50.00
Variable
cost per patient day = Total Variable cost for the year / total patient day
262,800/17,508
= 15
No. of
patient days = Total Revenue for the year/ revenue per patient day
1,138,800 /
65 per day = 17,508
2. The
Contribution margin per patient day is
a. 49.92
b. 52.50
c. 50.00
d. 52.00
Contribution
Margin = revenue/patient day – variable cost/patient day
65 per day –
15 = 50 per patient day
3. How many patient
days are necessary to cover fixed cost for bed capacity and supervisory nurses?
a. 9,500
b. 11,500
c. 12,500
d. 10,500
Fixed costs for bed
capacity P
453,000
Salary, supervisory
nurse 72,000
Total P
525,000
Number of patient days
required to cover fixed costs for bed capacity and salaries of supervisory
nurse
525000÷
50 = 10,500
4. The
number of patients days need to cover total cost
a. 14,200
b. 15,200
c. 15, 820
d. 14, 220

Breakeven
calculation: 773,000÷
50 15,460
The calculated breakeven
point of 15,460 is invalid because the number falls under the second range
wherein the amount of fixed costs that had been used are not relevant to that
range.
Second Range (Final calculation):
Total fixed cost, 773,000
Additional fixed cost:
1 aide 5,000
1
nurse 13,000
Total 791,000
Breakeven in patient days:
791,000 ÷
50 158,240
5. If the
pediatrics department rented additional beds and all other factors remain the
same as in the last year, what would be the increased in revenue?
a. 99, 450
b. 87,750
c. 105,450
d. 89, 750
Additional revenues if 20
beds are rented:
90 days @ 17 patient days x
65 99,450
6.
Continuing to consider the 20 additional rented beds, the increased in total
variable cost applied per patient is
a. 22,935
b. 22,950
c. 22,965
d. 23,935
Increase in variable cost
should be calculated based on additional patient days for 90 days at P15 per
patient day.
17 beds x 90 days x P15 P22,
950
7. Refer to
the information given in the problem. What is the increased fixed cost for bed
capacity, given the increased bed number of beds?
a. 151,000
b. 173,950
c. 147,000
d. 152,000
The increase in fixed cost
based on bed capacity:
453,000 ÷ 60 x
20 P151,000
