Answer 1

$416,667

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine Eastwick's break-even sales volume

First step is to calculate the Contribution margin (CM)

CM = ($100,000 – $40,000) + ($200,000 – $140,000) + ($200,000 – $80,000)

CM=$60,000+$60,000+$120,000

CM = $240,000

Second step is to calculate CM%

CM% = $240,000/$500,000

CM% = 48%

Now let calculate the Break-even sales volume

Break-even sales volume = $200,000/.48

Break-even sales volume = $416,667

Therefore Break-even sales volume is $416,667
