Answer 1

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars= $ 179792.43≅$ 180,000

Contribution Margin $ 182,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars= Fixed Costs/ Contribution Margin Ratio

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars= Fixed Costs/ 1- (variable Costs/ Sales)

Break Even Sales Volume in Units = Fixed Costs/ Contribution Margin per Unit

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars = $58,900/1-( $388,000/$570,000)

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars = $58,900/1-( 0.6744)

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars = $58,900/0.3276

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars = $ 179792.4298= $ 179792.43≅

$ 180,000

Sales $570,000

Less Total variable cost $388,000

Contribution Margin $ 182,000

Less Total fixed cost $58,900

Net Profit $ 123,100
