Solutions

Expert Solution

1) Break even point in sales dollars = Fixed costs/CM Ratio
Fixed costs = 542000+217600 = $      7,59,600
Variable expenses per unit = 13.00+4.92 = $            17.92
Contribution margin per unit = 32 - 17.92 = $            14.08
CM ratio = Contribution margin/Sales = 14.08/32 = 44.00%
BEP in sales dollars = 759600/44% = $    17,26,364
2) Fixed costs = 542000+217600 = $      7,59,600
Variable expenses per unit = 13.00*110%+4.92 = $            19.22
Contribution margin per unit = 32 - 19.22 = $            12.78
CM ratio = Contribution margin/Sales = 12.78/32 = 39.94%
BEP in sales dollars = 759600/44% = $    19,01,972
3) CM Ratio = Revised Contribution margin per unit/Sales price per unit
Sales price to yield 44% CM Ratio = 12.78/44% = $            29.05
