Explanation / Answer

14.

a.

Unit contribution margin for Bats = Unit selling price - Unit variable cost

= 50 - 40 = 10

Unit contribution margin for Gloves = Unit selling price - Unit variable cost

= 130 - 80 = 50

Weighted average unit contribution margin = (Bats contribution margin in units * Sales mix) + (Gloves contribution margin * Sales mix)

= (10*20%) + (50*80%)

= 42

Breakeven units for the overall enterprise = Fixed costs / Weighted average unit contribution margin

= 533,400 / 42

= 12,700 units.

b.

Baseball bats = 12,700 * 20% = 2,540 units.

Baseball gloves = 12,700 * 80% = 10,160 units.
