Scenario
Wanda comes to you because she is discouraged and needs to talk. Her parents have heard she is thinking of expanding her business and even possibly taking out a second mortgage on her home to fund the expansion. They have never been overly supportive of her business, but as long as it seemed like a “hobby,” they didn’t have much to say. Recently Wanda’s mother called and expressed strong reservations about Wanda taking such a large step. This made a big impression on Wanda. She tells you that she doesn’t want her business to cause a rift in the family. Perhaps she should take her parents’ advice and just forget expanding the business. Moreover, she doesn’t understand why her parents aren’t as excited about the prospects for the business as she is.

partial credit, P3-48 (similar to) Marston Corporation manufactures housewares products that are sold through a network of external sales agents. The agents are paid a commission of 19% of revenues. Marston is considering replacing the sales agents with its own salespeople, who would be paid a commission of 10% of revenues and total salaries of $ 2 comma 520 comma 000. The income statement for the year ending December 31, 2017, under the two scenarios is shown here. Marston Corporation Income Statement For the Year Ended December 31, 2017 Using Sales Agents Using Own Sales Force Revenues $28,000,000 $28,000,000 Cost of goods sold Variable $13,160,000 $13,160,000 Fixed 3,170,000 16,330,000 3,170,000 16,330,000 Gross Margin 11,670,000 11,670,000 Marketing costs Commissions $5,320,000 $2,800,000 Fixed costs 2,644,000 7,964,000 5,164,000 7,964,000 Operating income $3,706,000 $3,706,000 Calculate Marston's 2017 contribution margin percentage, breakeven revenues, and degree of operating leverage under the two scenarios. 2. Describe the advantages and disadvantages of each type of sales alternative. 3. In 2018, Marston uses its own salespeople, who demand a 15% commission. If all other cost behavior patterns are unchanged, how much revenue must the salespeople generate in order to earn the same operating income as in 2017?
