Break-even point in dollar sales:
break-even point in dollar sales = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
Fixed Costs = $226,720
Contribution Margin ratio = Contribution Margin ÷ Sales
= 288100 ÷ 670000
= 43% or .43
Therefore,
Break-even point in dollar sales = $266,720 ÷ .43
Break-even point in dollar sales = $6,20,279.07
