Question

Last month, Willsted Company sold 460 units for $26.00 each. During the month, fixed costs were $2,510 and variable costs were $7.30 per unit.

1: Determine the unit contribution margin and contribution margin ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.Omit the "$" & "%" signs in your response.)


Unit contribution margin:_______
Contribution margin ratio:_______ %

2: Calculate the break-even point in units and sales dollars. (Round your intermediate calculations and break even sales dollars to 2 decimal places.Omit the "$" sign in your response.)


Break-even units:_______ units
Break-even sales dollars:$_______

3: Compute Willsted

Explanation / Answer

total cost = 2,510 + 7.30*460 = 5868

total revenue =26*460 =11960

1)Unit contribution margin: 26-7.30 = 18.7

Contribution margin ratio: 18.7/26 = .72

2)  2,510 + 7.30x = 26x

=>18.7x=2510 =>x=134.22 = 135(approx)

brk even sales in dollars is = 26*134.22 =3 489.72 (or 26*135 =3510)

3)Margin of safety: 460-135 = 325 units

Percentage of sales: ((11960-3510)/11960)*100= (0.706521)*100 = 70.6521%
