06 Aphrodite is a designer menswear store located in Sunderland. Last year Aphrodite had fixed costs of
£180,000 (per year) and their average selling price was £80. Variable costs were 2/5ths of the average
selling price and the business sold 8,000 items.
Calculate how much profit Aphrodite made last year. Show your workings.
(4 marks)
Marks for this question = A01 = 2 and A02 = 2
Total Revenue = Price x Quantity Sold = £80 x 8,000 = £640,000 (1 Mark)
Total Costs = Fixed Costs + Total Variable Costs = £180,000 + (2/5 of £640,000)
OR £180,000 +(8,000x 2/5 of £80)
= £180,000 +£256,000 = £436,000 (2 marks)
Profit = Revenue – Total Cost = £640,000 - £436,000
= £204,000 (4 Marks)
Contribution method: Contribution per sale = £80 x 3/5 = £48
Profit = (contribution per sale x sales) – Fixed Costs
= (£48 x 8000) - £180,000
= £384,000 - £180,000 = £204,000 (4 Marks)
204,000: No £ sign (3 Marks)
Clear workings and all correct with one arithmetical error (MAX) 3 marks
If no valid calculation: award 1 mark for correct formula
