Question

Weidner Company sells 22,000 units at $30 per unit. Variable costs are $24 per unit, and fixed costs are $40,000.

Determine:
(a) the contribution margin ratio,
(b) the unit contribution margin, and
(c) income from operations.

Answer 1

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Contribution margin ratio

= (Unit price - Variable cost per unit) / Unit price

Unit price = $30 per unit

Variable cost per unit = $24 per unit

Therefore,

Contribution margin ratio = ($30 - $24) / $30

Contribution margin = $0.2

b. Unit contribution margin

= Selling price unit - Variable cost per unit

Selling price per unit = $30 per unit

Variable cost per unit = $24

Therefore,

Unit contribution margin = $30 - $24

Unit contribution margin = $6

c. Income from operations

Sales (22,000 units at $30)

$660,000

Less:

Variable cost (22,000 units at $24)

$528,000

Contribution margin

$132,000

Less:

Fixed costs

($40,000)

Net income

$92,000
