Paragon Senior Services is a nonprofit organization devoted to providing essential services to seniors who live in their own homes within the Pasig area. Three services are provided for seniors - home nursing, meals on wheels, and housekeeping. In the home nursing program, nurses visit seniors on a regular basis to check on their general health and to perform tests ordered by their physicians. The meals on wheels program delivers a hot meal once a day to each senior enrolled in the program. The housekeeping service provides weekly housecleaning and maintenance services. Data on revenue and expenses for the past year follow: Meals on Wheels P400,000 210,000 190,000 Home House- Total P900,000 490,000 410,000 Nursing P260,000 120,000 140,000 keeping P240,000 160,000 80,000 Revenues Variable expenses Contribution margin Fixed expenses: Depreciation Liability insurance Program administrators' salaries General administrative overhead* Total fixed expenses Net operating income (loss) 68,000 42,000 115,000 180,000 405,000 P 5.000 8,000 20,000 40,000 52,000 120,000 P 20.000 40,000 7,000 38,000 80,000 165,000 P 25.000 20,000 15,000 37,000 48.000 120,000 P(40.000) * Allocated on the basis of program revenues.
