Problem 11-28

a.      N = Number of units to break-even point

Sales − Variable cost − Fixed cost = Desired Profit

          (Sales price x N) − (Variable cost per unit x N) = Fixed cost + Desired Profit

(Contribution margin per unit x N) = Fixed cost + Desired Profit

N = (Fixed cost + Desired Profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit

N = ($               + $           ) ÷ [$       - ($     + $       )] =          Units

          Break-even point dollars =        Units x $        selling price per unit = $

b.      N = Number of units to break-even point

          N = (Fixed cost + Desired Profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit

          N = ($            + $            ) ÷ [$        – ($       + $      )]

          N =          Units

          Break-even point dollars =    Units x $            selling price per unit = $
