Explanation / Answer

Answer to Question 11:

When 3,200 units were produced and sold:

Fixed Cost = $103,600
Variable Cost = $118,400

Variable Cost per unit = $118,400 / 3,200
Variable Cost per unit = $37

When 3,700 units were produced and sold:

Fixed Cost = $103,600

Variable Cost = $37 * 3,700
Variable Cost = $136,900

Total Cost = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost
Total Cost = $136,900 + $103,600
Total Cost = $240,500

Total Cost per unit = $240,500 / 3,700
Total Cost per unit = $65.00

Answer to Question 12:

Contribution Margin = Sales Revenue - Variable Cost of Goods Sold - Supplies
Contribution Margin = $68,640 - $29,040 - $9,240
Contribution Margin = $30,360

Answer to Question 13:

Contribution Margin per unit = Selling Price - Variable Cost per unit
Contribution Margin per unit = $31 - $12
Contribution Margin per unit = $19

At breakeven:

Fixed Cost = Contribution Margin
Fixed Cost = $19 *21,000
Fixed Cost = $399,000

Answer to Question 14:

Contribution Margin per unit = Selling Price - Variable Cost per unit
Contribution Margin per unit = $12 - $8
Contribution Margin per unit = $4

Sales Volume = (Fixed Cost + Target Profit) / Contribution Margin per unit
Sales Volume = ($40,000 + $25,000) / $4
Sales Volume = 16,250 units

Answer to Question 15:

Margin of Safety in dollars = Sales - Breakeven
Margin of Safety in dollars = $1,000,000 - $800,000
Margin of Safety in dollars = $200,000

Margin of Safety in units = Margin of Safety in dollars / Selling Price
Margin of Safety in units = $200,000 / $50
Margin of Safety in units = 4,000 units
