Explanation / Answer

SOLUTION

(A) Contribution margin per unit = Sales price - Variable Costs

= $190 - $133 = $57

(B) Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin per unit / Sales price * 100

= $57 / $190 * 100 = 30%

(C) Breakeven point in units = Fixed Expense / Contribution margin per unit

= $735,300 / $57 = 12,900 units

(D) Breakeven point in dollar = Fixed Expense / Contribution margin ratio

= $735,300 / 30% = $2,451,000
