            Raw materials cost        Direct labour costs          Salary Foreman

       2.2.2 Calculate the break-even value of Jellytot Manufacturers.                       (4)

       2.2.3 In your opinion, should Jellytot Manufacturers change to a cheaper
             supplier? Give TWO reasons for your answer.                                     (5)

       INFORMATION

       The owner of Jellytot Manufacturers has provided you with the following
       information:

       x     Selling price per tracksuit: R160
       x     Variable cost per tracksuit: R115
       x     Total fixed costs: R945 000

       The owner informs you that he has discovered a new supplier for raw material.
       The material will fade after one wash. However, this will reduce the variable cost
       to R95. If the business charges the same selling price, it will ensure greater
       profits.

                                                                                   TOTAL 53

                                  (EXEMPLAR)
 MARKS: 150

 MARKING PRINCIPLES:
 1.    Penalties for foreign items are applied only if the candidate is not losing marks elsewhere in the
       question for that item (no foreign item penalty for misplaced items). No double penalty applied.
 2.    Penalties for placement or poor presentation (e.g. details) are applied only if the candidate is earning
       marks on the figures for that item.
 3.    Full marks for correct answer. If the answer is incorrect, mark the workings provided.
 4.    If a pre-adjustment figure is shown as a final figure, allocate the part-mark for the working for that
       figure (not the method mark for the answer).
 5.    Unless otherwise indicated, the positive or negative effect of any figure must be considered to award
       the mark. If no + or – sign or bracket is provided, assume that the figure is positive.
 6.    Where indicated, part-marks may be awarded to differentiate between differing qualities of answers
       from candidates.
 7.    This memorandum is not for public distribution; as certain items might imply incorrect treatment. The
       adjustments made are due to nuances in certain questions
 8.    Where penalties are applied, the marks for that section of the question cannot be a final negative.
 9.    Where method marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the reasonableness of the
       answer before awarding the mark.
 10.   'Operation' means 'Check operation'. 'One part correct' means 'Operation and one part correct'.
 11.   In awarding method marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item that is incorrect
       at least in part. In such cases, do not award the method mark. Indicate by way of _
 12.   Be aware that some candidates provide valid alternatives beyond the memorandum.
 13.   Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation.

                              This marking guideline consists of 9 pages.
