Explanation / Answer

Contribution margin ratio=Contribution margin/Sales

=(22000/55000)=0.4

Hence 1.breakeven =Sales/Contribution margin ratio

=(14960/0.4)=$37400

2.Target Contribution margin=Fixed cost+Target profits

=(14960+13200)=$28160

Contribution margin/unit=(22000/1000)=$22/unit

Hence units to bne sold=(28160/22)=1280 units

3.MOS=Total sales-Breakeven sales

=(55000-37400)=$17600

=(17600/55000)=32%

4.DOL=Contribution margin/Net operating income

(22000/7040)=3.13(Approx).
