Explanation / Answer

Ans. 1

Sales price three times of variable cost (70X3) = 210

Calculation of variable cost per unit

Material ink (1X10)     = 10

Material paper (2X20) = 40

labour (2X10)              = 20

Total v/c     = 70   

Contribution per unit (210-70) = 140

Total fixed cost (100000+40000) = 140000

1. Quantities required for loose $100000 = (140000-100000) / 140 = 286 units

2. Break even qty = 140000/140 = 1000 units

3. Desired sales if desired profit is 1000000 = (140000+1000000)/140 = 8143 units

4. Net income or profit if only one book sold

Contribution                 = 140

Less: Fixed cost           = 140000

Net loss                        = (139860)

5.   Table

Income /Exp.        Sale of one Book           Target loss of 1lacs, Break even Target profit of 10lacs

Sales                      210                                 60000                            210000                 1710000

Less: V/c                70                                   20000                            70000                    570000

Contribution           140                                 40000                             140000                 1140000

Fixed cost            140000                            140000                            140000                  140000

net operating

income/loss        (139860)    (100000)    0    (1000000)
