...Lipman Bottle Company Summary: Lipman Bottle Company is a bottle distributor located in Albany, New York. The firm is operating in variable sizes of bottles and printing, but their profit is entirely from printing. The vice president, Robert Lipman, has a goal to make 30 percent margin and expand their business in New York-New Jersey area. Hence, he asked us to review their product line and costing information then give suggestions to increase profit and make a price list for the Albany area. Analysis: We completed the calculations finding variable costs per thousand bottles for a number of combinations. Table #1 summarizes the variable costs for the Albany area, which includes scrap. Table #2 summarizes the variable costs for the New York – New Jersey area, which includes shipping but not freight costs. We analyzed the data for bottle sizes 0-1 oz. and 17-32 oz., as well as order quantity ranges of 5,000-9,999 and 100,000-249,999. Full calculations and details can be found in Exhibits 1-8. Mr. Lipman’s goal is to get 30% margin of the revenue. Exhibit 9 shows the break even, which means no gain or loss, the profit margin of 30%, and then the price calculated to achieve the margin of revenue Mr. Lipman wanted. We subtract the 30% of revenue; the break even should be the rest of 70% of revenue. So we use: Variable cost + Fixed cost/Total machine-hours ($106,944/16,000hrs) = Break even Total price (revenue) * (1-30%) = Break even Thus, the...

...Non-Profit Analysis Project Michele Holt Liberty University BUSI 602-B02: Non-Profit Management Professor Dr. Marjorie Carlson Hurst July 6, 2012 Author Note This paper was prepared for Non-Profit Management, Section BUSI 602, taught by Professor Dr. Marjorie Carlson Hurst. Abstract The roots of America’s nonprofit, steam from the ancient traditions of charity, philanthropy, and voluntarism (Worth, 2012, p. 19). Charity can be defined as giving intended to meet current individual human needs or to alleviate current human suffering (Worth, 2012, p. 20). Volunteerism is defined as a very active process that requires active involvement with either the beneficiaries directly or an organization or group that serves a specific population in need (Worth, 2012, p. 20, 21). Virtually all cultures and religion include some emphasis on the importance of service to others, which includes giving or voluntary action (Worth, 2012, p. 19). The Bible teaches us, “Then the righteous will answer him, Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you? The King will reply, truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:31-46, NIV). This paper will examine the importance of a Christian worldview as it relates to nonprofit...
