Revenue 99 Employees directly involved in the manufacturing of the plastic bottles could manufacture 80 400 bottles monthly. These employees' total working hours per month are 402 hours and a wage will be paid of R270 per hour. Variable overheads will amount to R884 400 during each month. Fixed overhead will amount to R1 129 000 monthly. Each resulting plastic bottle could under most favourable circumstances be sold for R110 per bottle and all 80 400 bottles will be sold.
