Selling price per ticket     $70 per person Variable cost per person   $ 42 per person Total Fixed cost   $ 170,800 Contribution per person (Selling price - variable cost ) =( 70-42) = $ 28 per unit Break even sales   6,100 tickets Actual Slaes units 8,100 tickets Formula for Margin of Safety in units Actual sales Units   - Break even sales Units = Margin of Safety in units 8,100 - 6,100 = 2,000 units Formula for Margin of Safety in $ Margin of Safety units * Selling price per ticket = Margin of Safety in $ 2,000 tickets * $ 70 per ticket   = $140,000 Revised Fixed Cost :   $231,000 Formula for Revised Break even in Units: (Fixed cost + Target Profit) / Contribution per unit = Break even sales in units (231,000 + 0 ) / $ 28 per ticket 8,250 tickets Formula for Revised Break even in $: (Fixed cost + Target Profit) / CM Ratio % = Break even sales in $ (231,000 + 0 ) / 40% = $577,500 Note: Here Target profit is Nil, as at break even point, there is no profit no loss.
