Mona Company incurs $60,000 of annual fixed costs in manufacturing and selling a product that it sells for $15 per unit. The variable costs of manufacturing and selling the product are $9 per unit. If Mona Company has a 30% income tax rate, determine the amount of after-tax income that Mona Company would earn from $420,000 sales volume.
$108,000
$90,000
$28,000
$75,600
$280,000
Part 1
Fixed cost = $60,000
Selling price per unit = $15
Variable cost per unit =$9
Income tax rate = 30%
Target profit after tax income = $35,000
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit
= 15-9
= $6
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin per unit / Selling price per unit
= 6/15
= 40%
Income before tax = Income after tax / (1- tax rate)
= 35,000/ (1-0.30)
= 35,000/0.70
= $50,000
Sales to earn target income = (fixed cost + Target income)/Contribution margin ratio
= (60,000+50,000)/40%
= $275,000
The dollar sales volume that the company must achieve to reach this target income level = $275,000
Third option is correct.
Part 2
Fixed cost = $60,000
Selling price per unit = $15
Variable cost per unit =$9
Income tax rate = 30%
Sales volume = $420,000
After tax income = ?
Number of units sold = Sales/ Selling price per unit
= 420,000/15
= 28,000
Income Statement | |
Sales (28,000 x 15) | 420,000 |
Variable costs (28,000 x 9) | -252,000 |
Contribution margin | 168,000 |
Fixed costs | -60,000 |
Operating income | 108,000 |
Income tax expense (108,000 x 30) | -32,400 |
Net income | $75,600 |
The amount of after-tax income that Mona Company would earn from $420,000 sales volume = $75,600
Fourth option is correct.
