In this study I investigated the cost and profit conditions and the efficiency of intensive, qualitative apple production on the basis of a data collection carried out in ventures of high standard production. I concluded that the intensive apple production has an extremely high cost requirement, the production costs are approximately 1500 to 1600 thousand HUF per hectare. In an average case, a production value of 2000 thousand HUF per hectare may be reached, which may fluctuate in a wide interval during the years. Considering the above mentioned, a net profit of 400 to 500 thousand HUF may be realized in one hectare. It should be highlighted that regarding the present marketing conditions, realizing the appropriate profit may be expected only by producing 30 to 40 tons per hectare yields and 80 to 90% food quality ratio.

In the Shaanxi province, small and scattered plots impede an increase in the efficiency of apple production. Developing a moderate operation scale is a proper tool to solve inefficiencies in apple production, as it enables improving the factor allocation efficiency, resulting in higher yields, higher profit, or lower production costs. However, the moderate operation scales, based on output, profit, and production costs, may be different. This paper aimed to evaluate the moderate operation scale of apples from three perspectives of increasing yields and profits and reducing unit production cost. The study was based on survey data collected from 661 randomly selected apple farmers in eight counties of the Shaanxi province, China. The collected data were analyzed quantitatively by the input-output model, the net profit model, and unit production cost model. The findings show that: (1) The moderate operation scale oriented to increasing apple yields in the Shaanxi province should be 0.87–1.53 ha. (2) The moderate operation scale oriented to increasing the net profit of farmers in the Shaanxi province should be over 1.53 ha. (3) The moderate operation scale oriented to reducing the unit cost of apple production in the Shaanxi province should be 0.20–0.53 ha. The study provides evidence that policymakers should grasp the balance point and find the intersection of the operation scale based on output, profit, and unit production cost when guiding apple growers to carry out the moderate scale. We propose that 0.87–1.53 ha may be a suitable operation scale for apple production in the Shaanxi province at the current stage.

With the addition of profits, the company can pay all costs that are sacrificed, so that the company's operational activities are guaranteed and can run well. The problems examined in this study are intended to find out how the comparison of recording costs using the full costing method and variable costing affects the net profit of PT Bhaskara Madya Jaya. Both of these methods simultaneously involve raw materials, direct labor costs and factory overhead costs. What distinguishes the full costing method using fixed factory overhead loads and variable, if the variable costing only adds to the variable overhead load. Production costs that are not included in the raw material and direct labor costs are the overhead of the manufacturing plant itself. Descriptive method with a quantitative approach is the model of this research. With the use of saturated sampling. Documentation is a data collection technique that researchers use. The results of the study and details obtained by comparing the full costing method and variable costing. In detailing the cost of production, the full costing method produced a greater than the costing variable, this is due to the full costing method adding all the elements of costs, variable costs or fixed costs . Then from the results of the breakdown of net income, using the full costing method, the nominal profit is found to be far less than using the variable costing method.

In this study we were studying the question whether walnut production under domestic natural and economic circumstances shall be considered a profitable activity or not. Our partial objective is to determine, what level of natural inputs and production costs are required for walnut production, what yield level, selling price and production value can be attained, what level of profitability, rentability and efficiency may production have, is the establishment of a walnut orchard profitable on the entire lifespan of the plantation, and the production of which is more efficient: the dry shelled walnut production requiring postharvest activity or the raw, shelled walnut without postharvest activities. In this study, comparison of two systems is conducted. First version: producer establishes a walnut plantation and sells walnut raw and shelled. Second version: producer also invests into a drying facility, and in this case the end product is the dry, shelled walnut. If the producer sells walnut right after harvest in a raw bulk, total production costs in productive years reaches 974,011 HUF/ha. Attainable yield is 2.63 t/ha with 396.3 HUF/kg selling price, therefore the profit is 138,258 HUF/ha with 14.19% cost-related profitability. In the case when the producer sells dried, shelled walnut, production costs are 25% higher compared to that of raw walnut due to the cost of drying. By calculating with the postharvest loss, average yield is 1.84 t/ha, however, its selling price is way higher (882.84 HUF/kg), therefore the profit per hectare reaches 475,496 HUF with 39.01% cost-related profitability. Thus it can be stated that walnut production in an average year may be profitable even without postharvest, but efficiency is improved significantly when the producer sells the products dried. Investment profitability analysis revealed that production of raw, shelled walnut is not economically viable, since the plantation does not pay off on its entire lifespan (30 years), while walnut production with postharvest is efficient and rentable, since both net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) showed more favourable values than in the previous case, and the orchard pays off in the 21th year after establishment.

The survival of the company or the growth of the company, one part of the planning of profit planning profit used in the company is Break Even Point (BEP), which explains the relationship between costs, production volume, selling price in order to obtain the results of the company's research. This pricing is one of the determinants of competition in the market with similar industries. PT. Es Muda Perkasa is a company engaged in the industry of making ice blocks. In the competition, PT. Es Muda Perkasa has an approved selling price sufficient to compete in the industrial world but the prices offered by PT. Mighty Ice Young is still low. This is of course difficult for companies to be able to compete because the pricing that is applied is only based on estimation, so the price determined is not in accordance with production costs. Therefore the company needs to return to how the strategy of determining the price so that it can be achieved maximally, the determination and achievement of the BEP of the company can reach within a specified time. This study aims to analyze Break Event Point (BEP) at PT. Es Muda Perkasa, by determining the optimal selling price of ice blocks. The research method used in this study uses the calculation of event break-even points using the method of calculating the cost of production. Data collection using collection of observations, interviews, and literature studies. The results of the study showed break-even (break-even point) PT. Perkasa Es Muda after selling beam products as many as 2400 blocks with a turnover obtained for BEP amounting to Rp.605,812 with a selling price of ice blocks of Rp. 18.496 / stem.

Local apple production, especially Anna's apples, continues to decline. One of the Causes of the decline in local apple production is due to the disproportionate use of chemicals, which causes ethylene production in plants to increase. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of salicylic acid on reducing levels of ethylene concentrations in Anna apple plants. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with a single factor, namely the treatment of various salicylic acid concentrations (25 ppm, 50 ppm, 100 ppm, 200 ppm). The results showed that salicylic acid was able to reduce the value of ethylene concentration in plants. Provision of salicylic acid concentrations starting at 25 ppm was able to inhibit ethylene biosynthesis by more than 90%. The best results were shown in samples treated with 200 ppm salicylic acid concentration. By using salicylic acid alternatives, farmers are able to save around Rp3,040,400 in costs in one harvest period. The percentage of costs for salicylic acid in one harvest period is 3.39% of the total production costs, while the cost of the import promoter is 7.92% of the total production costs
