Monteagudo-Playa SA is a take-away food store at a popular beach resort. Consuelo Herreros, owner of Monteagudo-Playa, is deciding how much refrigerator space to devote to four different drinks. Pertinent data on these four drinks are as follows:
Natura Cola Lemonade Punch orange juice
|
 Selling price per case |
 €108.00 |
 €115.20 |
 €158.40 |
 €230.40 |
|
Variable costs per case Cases sold per metre of shelf-space per day |
€81.00  25 |
€91.20  24 |
€120.60  4 |
€181.20  5 |
Consuelo has a maximum front shelf-space of 12 metres to devote to the four drinks. She wants a minimum of 1 metre and a maximum of 6 metres of front shelf-space for each drink.
Required
1 What is the contribution margin per case of each type of drink?
2 A co-worker of Consuelo’s recommends that she maximise the shelf-space devoted to those drinks with the highest contribution margin per case. Evaluate this recommenda- tion.
3 What shelf-space allocation for the four drinks would you recommend for Monteagudo- Playa?
