Question

Wang co manufactures and sells a single product that sells for 640 per unit; variable costs are 352 per unit. Annual fixed costs are 985500. Current sales volume is 4390000. Management targets an annual pretax income of 1315000. Compute the dollar sales to earn the target pretax net income

Answer 1

Break-even point (dollars)= $5,112,222.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $640

Unitary variable cost= $352

Fixed costs= 985,500

Desired profit= $1,315,000

To calculate the sales in dollars to be sold, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio

contribution margin ratio= (640 - 352) / 640= 0.45

Break-even point (dollars)= (985,500 + 1,315,000) / 0.45

Break-even point (dollars)= $5,112,222.22
