Penny Company sells 25,000 units at $59 per unit. Variable costs are $29 per unit, and loss from operations is ($50,000). Determine the following: Round the contribution margin ratio to one decimal place.
a. Unit contribution margin | $ | per unit |
b. Contribution margin ratio | % | |
c. Fixed costs per unit at production of 25,000 units | $ | per unit |
Ans. a. Unit contribution margin per unit = (Sales price per unit-Variable cost per unit)
= (59-29) = $30 per unit
b. Contribution margin ratio = Contribution/Sales X100
= 30/59X100 = 50.85%
c. Calculation of Fixed per unit
Total Contribution for 25000 units (25000X30) = 750000
Less: Fixed Cost (Difference) = 800000*
Operation Loss = (50000)
Total Fixed is = $800000
Fixed cost per unit at production of 25000 units = 800000/25000 = 32 per unit
*Fixed cost calculation
Operation loss is 50000, it will come after deducting Fixed cost from Total contribution
Total contribution for 25000 units is = 750000
Operation loss is = 50000
Total fixed cost = 800000
Means Fixed cost is more than contribution thats why Operation loss is coming,
