Explanation / Answer

Cost Sheet

Raw Material Paper

$                   10

=1*10

Raw Material Ink

$                   40

=2*20

Direct Labor

$                   10

=1*10

Total Variable Cost

$                   60

selling Price

$                240

=4*60

Contribution

$                180

=240-60

Manufacturing Overhead

$        100,000

Administrative expense

$          40,000

Total Fixed Costs

$        140,000

1. Lose - 100000

For lose of $100,000 , fixed expenses only to the extend of $40,000 need to be covered

= 40000 / Contribution per unit

=40000 / 180

                   222

units

2. Break Even

For break even the fixed costs amounting $140,000 need to be covered

= 140000 / Contribution per unit

=140000 / 180

                   778

units

3. Earn - $1,000,000

To earn a profit of $1,000,000, the contribution margin required is 1,000,000 + 140,000 = $1,140,000

= 1140000 / Contribution per unit

=1140000 / 180

               6,333

units

4. Only one book is sold

The calculation will be based upon the no. of units required to complete the book
