(10 marks) c) What is the net income if the number of customers is 150000? (8 marks)

Explanation / Answer

Contribution per unit = (Sales – Variable cost) per unit

= $8 - $3.2

Contribution per unit = $4.8

Let no. of unit to be sold = x

Contribution = 4.8x

Contribution – Fixed Cost = Net Income

4.8x - $450,000 = $105,000

4.8x = $555,000

X = 115,625 Units

Revenue = 115,625 Units * $8

= $925,000

Company will need $925,000 sales to earn profit of $105,000

Company will need 115,625 Customers to earn a net profit of $105,000

= $450,000 / $4.8

= 93,750 Units

Breakeven point = 93,750 Units

Answered in (a) part

I.e. Company will need 115,625 Customers to earn a net profit of $105,000

= (150,000 * $4.8) - $450,000

Net Income = $270,000
